Jun 30, 2025 Jun 30, 2024 Jun 30, 2023 Jun 30, 2022 Jun 30, 2021
Days of inventory on hand (DOH) days 25.14 19.62 30.46 31.92
Days of sales outstanding (DSO) days 55.35 61.72 53.28 55.58 57.37
Number of days of payables days 27.43 28.37 26.41 28.85

The activity ratios for Fox Corp Class B, as measured by Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH), Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO), and Number of Days of Payables, demonstrate trends indicative of operational efficiency and cash flow management over the period from 2021 to 2024, with data for 2025 unavailable.

Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH):
The DOH decreased from 31.92 days in June 2021 to 19.62 days in June 2023, signaling a significant improvement in inventory turnover. This reduction suggests that the company has become more efficient in managing and selling its inventory, reducing the holding period and potentially lowering storage costs and obsolescence risk. However, in the subsequent year, DOH increased to 25.14 days in June 2024, indicating a slight slowdown in inventory turnover, which could reflect strategic inventory buildup or supply chain considerations.

Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO):
DSO remained relatively stable between 57.37 days in 2021 and 53.28 days in 2023, with a slight decrease over this period, reflecting consistent collection periods and potentially effective receivables management. In 2024, DSO rose to 61.72 days, indicating that the company was taking longer to collect receivables, which could affect liquidity and working capital. The increase in DSO warrants ongoing monitoring as it may impact cash flow if the trend persists.

Number of Days of Payables:
The data shows a decrease in Days of Payables from 28.85 days in 2021 to 26.41 days in 2022, with a slight increase to 28.37 days in 2023, indicating a relatively stable approach to settling payables. The data for 2024 is not available, leaving the trend undetermined. The stability suggests consistent payment policies to suppliers, balancing the need to manage cash flow effectively with maintaining good supplier relationships.

Summary:
Overall, Fox Corp Class B has demonstrated a marked improvement in inventory management between 2021 and 2023, while receivables collection remained fairly consistent until a deterioration was observed in 2024. The payables period has been relatively stable, reflecting consistent short-term liability management. The increase in DSO in 2024 suggests a potential shift in receivables collection dynamics, possibly impacting liquidity. Continued monitoring of these activity ratios is recommended to assess operational efficiency and cash flow implications moving forward.
