Days of inventory on hand (DOH) data is missing, so we can't analyze inventory turnover. However, Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO) has fluctuated over the past eight quarters, ranging from 17.45 days to 26.34 days. This ratio measures how long it takes the company to collect revenue from credit sales, with lower numbers indicating faster collections. The trend in recent quarters indicates some variability in collection efficiency.
Additionally, the number of days of payables data is missing, preventing analysis of the company's payment terms and liquidity based on the payables turnover. It is essential to monitor both DSO and the number of days of payables to assess how effectively Perdoceo Education Corporation manages its working capital cycle and cash flow.
