How Denise Coates Foundation compares
Denise Coates Foundation takes an average of 19 days to pay its suppliers, which is 13 days faster than the UK median of 32 days across 9,449 reporting companies. 45% of their invoices fall outside the agreed payment terms, compared to a national average of 24%. Their payment speed has been improving over time based on historical filings.
The “outside agreed terms” percentage measures how often the company pays after its own agreed payment terms (30 days), not against a fixed 30-day standard. A company with long payment terms can still be rated “Good payer” if it consistently meets those terms.
