The analysis of Sysco Corporation’s days of sales outstanding (DSO) over the specified period indicates a generally stable receivables collection cycle with slight fluctuations. As of June 30, 2021, the DSO was approximately 26.97 days, which decreased to 25.92 days by June 30, 2022. This slight reduction suggests an improvement in receivables collection efficiency during this period.
Between June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2023, the DSO further declined to approximately 24.38 days, signifying continued enhancement in receivables management and a shorter collection period. This indicates that the company was able to collect receivables more quickly, potentially reflecting stricter credit policies or more efficient billing and collections processes.
However, in the subsequent year, the DSO experienced a marginal increase to 24.75 days by June 30, 2024, and then remained relatively stable at 24.68 days as of June 30, 2025. These minor increases could suggest a slight easing in collection efforts or a shift in customer payment behaviors, although the instrument remains close to the lower end of the historical range.
Overall, the trend showcases consistency in receivables collection efficiency, with a notable peak in early 2021 that has generally trended downward, reflecting positively on the company's credit management and cash flow cycle. The DSO figures within this timeframe demonstrate a stable environment with slight improvements that reinforce efficient working capital management.
