The company's cash conversion cycle was -2.41 days as of December 31, 2020, indicating that it was able to convert its inventory and receivables into cash quickly. However, in the following years, the cash conversion cycle increased to 22.21 days as of December 31, 2021, and further to 23.59 days as of December 31, 2022.

This could potentially impact the company's liquidity and operational efficiency, warranting further investigation into its inventory management and receivables collection processes.
