The days of sales outstanding (DSO) metric for Kraft Heinz Co has shown a relatively stable trend over the past few years based on the provided data.

From March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2022, the DSO fluctuated within a relatively narrow range, indicating efficient management of accounts receivable. Notable variations are seen in the first half of 2021, showing a decrease in DSO, which implies that the company was able to collect its outstanding sales more quickly during that period.

However, toward the end of 2022 and into 2023, there was a slight increase in the DSO, suggesting that the company might be taking longer to convert its accounts receivable into cash. This could potentially impact cash flow and liquidity.

As of the most recent available data, the DSO has remained relatively steady around 30 days, indicating that Kraft Heinz Co continues to maintain a moderate level of efficiency in collecting payments from customers. Monitoring this metric over time can provide insights into the company's credit policies, collection processes, and overall financial health.
