The inventory turnover ratio measures how efficiently the company manages its inventory by indicating how many times the company sells and replaces its inventory within a specific period.

Dycom's inventory turnover has generally been on an increasing trend, indicating improved efficiency in managing its inventory. This trend suggests that Dycom is selling through its inventory at a faster rate in recent periods compared to historical periods.
