Accounts Receivable Analysis  ·  SIC Division 7

Three Firms With Unbroken DSO Growth, 2020–2025

Of 68 publicly-traded SIC Division 7 companies analyzed, only three recorded a higher Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) in every successive year from 2020 through 2024. 2025 data shown where available.

This analysis was inspired by a post on Michael Burry's blog, Cassandra Unchained, which originally highlighted Palantir's rising DSO trend. We extended the analysis across all 68 SIC Division 7 companies in our dataset to identify whether the pattern was unique to Palantir.
