The payables turnover ratio for Paramount Skydance Corporation Class B Common Stock exhibits significant fluctuations over the designated periods. Initially, as of September 30, 2020, the ratio was notably high at 48.33, indicating a swift velocity in settling payables relative to purchases. This level decreased substantially by December 31, 2020, to 26.26, and maintained a generally downward trend into March 31, 2021, with a value of 24.98. Slight variations continued through 2021 and into 2022, reflecting a modest decline and stabilization, with ratios around 18.60 in March 2022 and 22.76 in June 2022.

In the subsequent period, there was a decline reaching a low point at 14.14 as of December 31, 2022, which may suggest lengthened payment cycles or changes in credit terms with suppliers. Following this, the ratio demonstrated some recovery, rising to 17.56 in March 2023 and slightly increasing further to 18.60 by June 2023.

The most recent data points indicate an upward trend, with the ratio climbing to 23.85 as of September 30, 2023.

The ratio at the end of 2023 and the subsequent periods till June 2025 reflect fluctuations around 21.57 to 26.34, with peaks in March and June 2025 suggesting short-term variations in payables management.

Overall, the pattern indicates periods of rapid payments early in the timeline, followed by a decline to extended payment cycles in late 2022, and a subsequent partial reversal with increased payables turnover in 2023 and 2024. These variations could be attributed to changes in the company's credit policies, supplier relationships, liquidity management strategies, or operational adjustments over time.
