= 3.82

The payables turnover ratio of Philip Morris International Inc has exhibited fluctuations over the analyzed period, fluctuating between 3.05 and 5.91. A higher payables turnover ratio indicates the company is paying its suppliers more frequently within a shorter period, which can be a sign of strong liquidity management. On the other hand, a lower payables turnover ratio may suggest a slower payment cycle, potentially signaling liquidity constraints or extended credit terms with suppliers. It is important for stakeholders to closely monitor changes in the payables turnover ratio to assess the efficiency of Philip Morris International Inc's payables management and its overall financial health.
