Between December 31, 2019, and June 30, 2021, the inventory turnover remained relatively stable, within the range of 10.41 to 13.78. However, from March 31, 2021, to March 31, 2024, there was a declining trend in the inventory turnover ratio, with values dropping to a low of 9.20 by June 30, 2023.
The decrease in the inventory turnover ratio may indicate that HNI Corp is taking longer to sell its inventory or is potentially overstocked. This could lead to higher carrying costs and risks associated with holding excess inventory.
Overall, it is essential for HNI Corp to closely monitor and manage its inventory turnover to ensure efficient operations, minimize carrying costs, and maintain optimal inventory levels to support sales and profitability.
