Dana Inc's inventory turnover ratio has shown a consistent trend over the years, with a slight decrease from 5.64 in 2020 to 5.18 in 2021 before increasing to 6.08 in 2024. This indicates that the company is efficiently managing its inventory levels and turning over its inventory multiple times during the year.
On the other hand, the receivables turnover ratio data is not available for any of the years, suggesting that information on how quickly the company collects its accounts receivable is lacking. This may warrant further investigation into the company's credit policies and collection practices.
Similarly, the payables turnover ratio information is also missing for all years, making it challenging to assess how quickly Dana Inc pays its suppliers and manages its payables.
In terms of the working capital turnover ratio, the data shows an increasing trend from 5.28 in 2020 to 7.03 in 2023, with no data available for 2024. This indicates that the company is generating more revenue relative to its working capital over the years, which is a positive sign of efficient capital utilization.
Overall, while Dana Inc's inventory turnover and working capital turnover ratios reflect efficient operational management, the lack of data for receivables and payables turnover ratios highlights areas where further information or analysis may be needed to fully evaluate the company's financial performance.
