To analyze Pacira BioSciences Inc's days of inventory on hand (DOH) over the past five years:
- The company's DOH has shown fluctuations, ranging from a low of 175.94 days in 2022 to a high of 256.47 days in 2021.
- The spike in DOH in 2021 indicates that Pacira BioSciences held inventory for an average of 256.47 days before it was sold or used, which may suggest inefficiencies in managing inventory levels.
- The decrease in DOH in 2022 to 175.94 days could indicate improvements in inventory management efficiency during that year.
- However, the increase in DOH to 206.25 days in 2023 raises concerns about the company's ability to efficiently manage its inventory levels and turnover.
- It would be advisable for Pacira BioSciences to closely monitor and possibly optimize its inventory management processes to reduce DOH and improve working capital efficiency.
