- The inventory turnover ratio measures how efficiently a company manages its inventory. Dynavax's inventory turnover has shown improvement over the years, increasing from 0.42 in March 2020 to 0.71 in December 2024. A higher inventory turnover indicates that the company is selling its products more quickly.

3. Payables Turnover:
- Similar to receivables turnover, data for payables turnover is not available. This ratio would have indicated how quickly the company pays its suppliers.

1. Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH):
- The DOH for Dynavax Technologies Corporation has shown significant fluctuations over the years.
- In general terms, DOH measures how many days a company's inventory will last. A lower DOH is preferable as it indicates quicker turnover of inventory.

- Similar to DSO, the data does not contain details on the Number of Days of Payables for the company.
- The Number of Days of Payables ratio represents the average number of days a company takes to pay its suppliers. A higher number of days indicates that the company takes longer to pay its bills.

In conclusion, the analysis of Dynavax Technologies Corporation's activity ratios, specifically focusing on Days of Inventory on Hand, reveals an overall improving trend in inventory management efficiency. It would be beneficial to complement this analysis with other activity ratios, such as DSO and Number of Days of Payables, to provide a more comprehensive assessment of the company's operational performance.
