Accounts Receivable Aging

Also known as AR Aging, Receivables Aging

Definition

Accounts receivable aging shows whether reported revenue is converting into cash. It groups receivables by age, usually current, 30, 60, 90, and 120+ days, so operators can identify collection risk, dispute patterns, customer health issues, and working-capital pressure.

AR aging is where revenue quality starts to become visible. A company can show growth on the income statement while cash gets trapped in disputes, slow collections, or customers that were never healthy.

For diligence and turnaround work, aging quality often matters as much as the headline revenue number.
