The data indicates that Brinker International Inc.'s number of days of payables has experienced fluctuations over the period from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2024. Specifically, the payable days decreased from 16.44 days in 2021 to 14.83 days in 2022, representing a reduction of approximately 1.61 days. This decline suggests an improvement in the company's efficiency in settling its accounts payable, potentially reflecting stronger liquidity management or negotiated credit terms.

Continuing this trend, the payable days further decreased to 12.63 days in 2023, a reduction of nearly 2.2 days compared to the previous year. This continued decline indicates an even more prompt payment cycle, which could be attributed to improved cash flow management or strategic efforts to strengthen supplier relationships through quicker payments.

This represents an upward shift of approximately 2.85 days from the prior year, indicating a lengthening of the company's payment cycle. This change may suggest changes in credit terms, cash flow considerations, or operational adjustments affecting the company's ability or willingness to pay suppliers promptly.
