A company is growing revenue at 40% per year. Its Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) remains constant at 60 days.

How does this growth affect the firm's Net Working Capital and FCFF?

  1. Net Working Capital remains constant because the DSO ratio is stable, leaving FCFF unaffected.
  2. Net Working Capital increases, creating a persistent drag on FCFF.
  3. Net Working Capital decreases because the company is becoming more efficient at collecting revenue as it scales.
  4. FCFF increases because the increase in Accounts Receivable is added back as a non-cash revenue item.
