Incyte Corporation's inventory turnover indicates a decreasing trend over the past five years, from 8.00 in 2020 to 5.30 in 2024. This suggests that the company is selling its inventory at a slower rate, which could potentially lead to excess or obsolete inventory.

The receivables turnover data is not provided, which limits our ability to evaluate how efficiently Incyte is collecting its accounts receivables from customers. Without this information, it is challenging to gauge the effectiveness of the company's credit and collection policies.

The payables turnover ratio shows fluctuations over the period, with a low of 0.75 in 2022 and a high of 2.33 in 2023. A higher payables turnover ratio may indicate that the company is taking longer to pay its suppliers, potentially signaling strained relationships or cash flow issues.

Incyte's working capital turnover has varied over the years, with a consistent downward trend from 1.54 in 2020 to 2.66 in 2024. A decreasing working capital turnover ratio may suggest inefficiencies in generating sales relative to the amount of working capital invested in the business.

Overall, the activity ratios reveal that Incyte Corporation may be facing challenges in managing its inventory effectively, maintaining stable supplier relationships, and optimizing its working capital turnover. These aspects are critical for the company's operational efficiency and financial performance.
