Increasing inventory in March by $27M or 26% from December in anticipation of increased sales in the July or December quarters is not good management. Inventory turnover goes from 5.2 to 3.7 times a year is corroborating evidence that inventory increase is not due to increasing sales. IMO it is poor asset management.

A plus is that APCC's financial condition is so good, poor asset management has not effected the bottom line too severely.

By the way, this discussion is a little overdue, since March's financials were out about two month's ago. But better late then never.
