Overview

• JLR said some sections of manufacturing will resume in the coming days as controlled restarts continue.
• Production at Halewood, Solihull and Wolverhampton in the UK, plus factories in Slovakia, Brazil and India, has been halted since September 1.
• Partial restoration of IT systems last week enabled the company to clear a backlog of supplier payments.
• The UK Export Development Guarantee will back a five-year commercial loan worth £1.5 billion to support cash flow across JLR’s supply chain.
• Forensic work indicates some data was accessed, with responsibility claims reported from cyber groups yet to be independently verified, and external estimates point to substantial losses in output and profit.
