Average number of days

Dec 31, 2024 Dec 31, 2023 Dec 31, 2022 Dec 31, 2021 Dec 31, 2020
Days of inventory on hand (DOH) days 137.04 170.42 160.56 128.44 142.00
Days of sales outstanding (DSO) days
Number of days of payables days

Based on the provided data, let's analyze the activity ratios of ICU Medical Inc:

1. Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH):
- The DOH measures how many days, on average, it takes for a company to sell its inventory.
- ICU Medical Inc's DOH decreased from 142.00 days in 2020 to 128.44 days in 2021, indicating an improvement in inventory management.
- However, the DOH increased to 160.56 days in 2022, further rising to 170.42 days in 2023, before decreasing to 137.04 days in 2024.
- The increase in DOH in 2022 and 2023 suggests a longer holding period for inventory, which may tie up more capital and impact liquidity.

2. Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO):
- Unfortunately, the data provided does not include information on DSO for ICU Medical Inc.
- DSO measures the average number of days a company takes to collect revenue after a sale.
- It provides insights into the efficiency of the company's accounts receivable management.

3. Number of Days of Payables:
- Similar to DSO, no specific data on the number of days of payables is available for ICU Medical Inc.
- The payables period measures how long a company takes to pay its suppliers.
- A longer payables period may indicate favorable payment terms with suppliers, while a shorter period might signal efficient working capital management.

Overall, without DSO and payables data, a comprehensive analysis of ICU Medical Inc's complete activity ratios, including cash conversion cycle, cannot be performed. Additional information on accounts receivable and payables turnover would provide a more holistic view of the company's operational efficiency and liquidity management.
