Step Co's Days Inventory for the six months ended in Mar. 2026 is calculated as:

=2.16

2. Inventory-to-Revenue determines the ability of a company to manage their inventory levels. It measures the percentage of Inventories the company currently has on hand to support the current amount of Revenue.

Step Co's Inventory to Revenue for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2026 is calculated as
