Glaukos Corp's inventory turnover has been gradually decreasing from 9.33 on March 31, 2020, to 6.41 on December 31, 2024.

Glaukos Corp's Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH) has shown an increasing trend over the past few years, starting at 39.11 days as of March 31, 2020, and reaching 56.93 days by December 31, 2024. This suggests that the company is holding inventory for a longer period before it is sold, which could potentially indicate inefficiencies in inventory management or challenges in selling products.

On the other hand, Glaukos Corp's Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO) has fluctuated over the same period, with a peak of 59.04 days as of December 31, 2020, and a low of 41.67 days by December 31, 2021. This ratio measures how long it takes for the company to collect its accounts receivable, indicating the efficiency of its credit policies and collection efforts. The decreasing trend in DSO could signify improved credit management practices or a more timely collection of receivables.

Lastly, the Number of Days of Payables, which reflects the average number of days it takes for a company to pay its suppliers, has varied as well. Glaukos Corp's payables days ranged from a low of 6.04 days as of December 31, 2020, to a high of 29.98 days by June 30, 2022. A lower number of days of payables indicates that the company is paying its suppliers more quickly, while a higher number could imply a more favorable working capital position.

Overall, the trends in Glaukos Corp's activity ratios suggest potential areas of strength and weakness in its working capital management and operational efficiency, which could impact its overall financial performance and liquidity position.
