The working capital turnover for Verisk Analytics Inc was 69.29 as of December 31, 2023. This indicates that the company generated 69.29 times its working capital in revenue during the year. A high working capital turnover ratio is generally favorable as it suggests efficient utilization of working capital to generate sales. However, the lack of data for the previous years makes it difficult to compare the company's performance over time or against industry averages. It would be helpful to track this ratio over multiple periods to assess the company's ability to effectively manage its working capital and generate revenue.
