The read · computed from their figures

Balcas Timber Limited's H1 2026 filing puts their average at 45 days against stated terms of 45 days; 29% of invoices were paid outside agreed terms and 29% took 61 days or longer. Filed 18 Oct 2026.

The direction is slower: from 41 days in H2 2023 to 45 now — 4 days slower across their last 6 reports.

On the latest reported averages: Faster than 51% of the 977 large companies reporting in manufacturing.

That is 17 statutory periods on record (earliest H1 2018) — a historical record, not a promise for a new invoice.

In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Payment in full for invoices to be made in the month following month of invoice (average 45 days). Balcas will at worst strive for payment in full for invoices to be made in the second month following month of invoice (average 75 days). The extension out to 75 days is largely driven by payment to suppliers outside of the United Kingdom, in an attempt to match terms to suppliers with the timing of receipts from customers in the same region.

Dispute resolution

If a query simply relates to an enquiry about payment this will be dealt with by the accounts department. If there is a dispute or complaint, the query is directed to the appropriate person.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
