Positive cash flow from working capital sources?

How can a firm have positive NWC over a course of few years? Some of the reasons I can think are

1. If they are pushing back on payables every year by some time

2. If they collect more deferred revenue every year going forward etc..

What other reasons could make this happen?

Thanks in advance :)
