The days of sales outstanding (DSO) ratio measures the average number of days it takes for a company to collect payment after making a sale. In the case of Vistra Energy Corp, the provided data does not contain any specific values for DSO for the periods mentioned, indicating that the information regarding this metric is either not disclosed or not available. Without the actual values for DSO, it is not possible to analyze or draw conclusions about Vistra Energy Corp's collection efficiency or cash flow management based on this ratio.

It is important to note that a lower DSO is generally preferred as it indicates that the company is collecting payments more quickly, thereby improving cash flow and liquidity. Conversely, a higher DSO may signal potential issues with the company's accounts receivable management and liquidity position.

To perform a thorough analysis of Vistra Energy Corp's DSO, it would be necessary to obtain the specific DSO values for each reporting period and compare them over time to identify any trends or deviations from industry benchmarks. Additionally, benchmarking Vistra's DSO against its peers in the energy sector would provide further insights into the company's performance in managing its accounts receivable.
