V, you've been answered: Message 13466648 I would just add that you can quickly calculate the DSO by taking the (AR) /(revenue/days in period). The divisor is the average revenue booked per day and the dividend is our best guess of the average AR for the period (really it is the AR at the END of the period, so not always very accurate). So given 128M rev, 90 days (about), and 83M of AR, you get 83/(128/90)=58~59. You can do the same thing for last Q but I'm taking their word for it that it was low 40s.
