Remarkably, from March 31, 2022, to March 31, 2025, Liveramp Holdings Inc displayed negative cash conversion cycles, with values ranging from -82.60 days to -98.66 days. A negative cash conversion cycle implies that the company is operating in a way where it receives cash from customers before paying its suppliers, potentially indicating strong bargaining power with suppliers or efficient inventory management.
