The receivables turnover ratios for H2O America over the analyzed period demonstrate notable fluctuations, reflecting variations in the company's efficiency in collecting its accounts receivable. Starting from a ratio of 4.87 as of September 30, 2020, the ratio experienced an upward trend, reaching its peak at 6.21 as of March 31, 2023. This increasing trend indicates periods where the company became more efficient in collecting receivables.

Throughout this period, the ratio showed intermittent declines; notably, it decreased to 4.72 as of September 30, 2022, and further dipped to 4.46 as of September 30, 2024. These declines suggest periods where collection efficiency may have slowed or credit policies became more lenient, possibly due to strategic changes or external economic factors.

The data also shows that post-peak in 2023, the ratio gradually declined toward September 2024 before slightly settling at 4.46. Despite this recent downturn, the ratio remains within a moderate range, indicating ongoing effectiveness in receivables management but also potential room for improvement.

Overall, the fluctuations in the receivables turnover ratio over time suggest that H2O America's collection efficiency has experienced periods of improvement and slowdown, likely influenced by internal policy adjustments and external economic conditions. Maintaining or enhancing collection practices could support more stable and higher turnover ratios moving forward.
