It stood at 14.11 in 2019, decreased to 12.37 in 2020, and then fluctuated within a narrow range, reaching 12.95 in 2023.

A higher payables turnover indicates that the company is effectively using its credit terms and managing its cash flow by paying off its suppliers in a timely manner. However, it's important to note that a very high turnover ratio may also signal a potential strain on supplier relationships if the company is pushing for extremely quick payment terms.
