The inventory turnover ratio measures how efficiently a company manages its inventory by calculating how many times a company's inventory is sold and replaced over a period.

For O-I Glass Inc, the inventory turnover has demonstrated a generally stable trend over the years. In 2020, the ratio stood at 6.85 and showed a slight improvement to 7.14 in 2021. The efficiency in managing inventory continued to increase, reaching 7.30 in 2022. However, there was a notable decrease in 2023 with a ratio of 5.24 before slightly recovering to 5.70 in 2024.

A high inventory turnover ratio indicates that the company is effectively selling its inventory and restocking at a fast pace. On the other hand, a decreasing ratio may suggest potential issues such as overstocking, obsolete inventory, or decreasing sales. It is important for O-I Glass Inc to monitor and analyze the reasons behind fluctuations in the inventory turnover ratio to optimize its inventory management processes and improve overall efficiency.
