Question: What does the increase in NVIDIA's Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) from 2023 to 2024 indicate about its accounts receivable management and its potential impact on cash flow?
Answer: NVIDIA's Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) increased from 51.8 days in 2023 to 59.9 days in 2024. This increase indicates that the company is taking longer to collect payments from its customers. The higher DSO suggests a potential issue with accounts receivable management, which could impact the company's cash flow and liquidity.
