Be Aware

Net receivables tells us a great deal about the different competitors in the same industry. In competitive industries, some attempt to gain advantage by offering better credit terms, causing increase in sales and receivables.

If company consistently shows lower % Net receivables to gross sales than competitors, then it usually has some kind of competitive advantage which requires further digging.

Average Days Sales Outstanding is a good indicator for measuring a company's sales channel and customers. A company may book great revenue and earnings growth but never receive payment from their customers. This may force a write-off in the future and depress future earnings.

Scentre Group (ASX:SCG) Business Description

Traded in Other Exchanges
Address
85 Castlereagh Street, Level 30, Sydney, NSW, AUS, 2000
Scentre Group owns the largest portfolio of premium Australian and New Zealand shopping malls, owning most of the top 10 Australian and top five New Zealand malls. About half its rent comes from anchor tenants and half from specialty tenants. About a third of floor space is currently allocated to department stores, however we expect tenants to return a reasonable portion of that space over the next decade, or alternatively, department store rent to be renegotiated to lower levels. While almost every Scentre mall is anchored by at least one supermarket, these tenants accounts for less than 10% of gross lettable area, due to the large size of Scentre's assets.
