LOOKING AHEAD
CONTINUING TO INVEST TO DRIVE PROFITABLE GROWTH
JAGUAR LAND ROVER
JLR’s strategy continues to be to invest in new products, technology and manufacturing capacity to grow profitably – in FY17 investment spending is likely to be somewhat lower than the prior indication of about £3.75b.
Jaguar Land Rover plans to continue to build on recent successful product launches with the continued sales ramp up of the Jaguar F-PACE , XF long wheel base in China, the Evoque Convertible and future new models including the all new Land Rover Discovery and others to be announced.
Increasing sales of these new products and the planned start of new Discovery wholesales in Q4 FY17 are expected to drive profitable growth and support a solid second half of the year.
JLR continues to have a balanced sales profile and will continue to closely monitor and assess market conditions in key regions.

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

Jaguar Land Rover achieved record second quarter sales primarily driven by the new Jaguar F-PACE, XE (now on sale in the US), the Land Rover Discovery Sport and the Range Rover Evoque. Retail volumes were higher across all regions in Q2 FY17 compared to the same period a year ago. Profits were higher in the quarter compared to Q2 FY16, however, margins were lower due to unfavourable FX revaluation of current assets and liabilities and a onetime provision for new customer quality programmes.

Key metrics for Q2 FY17 results, compared to Q2 FY16, are as follows:

 

  Total retail sales of 142.5k units (including the China JV), up 29.3%.

 

  Revenue of £6.0 billion, up from £4.8 billion.

 

  EBITDA of £615 million (10.3% margin), up from £589 million (12.2% margin).

 

  PBT of £280 million, compared to a loss of £157 million (Q2 FY16 included an exceptional charge of £245 million for the Tianjin port explosion).

 

  PAT of £244 million, compared to a loss of £92 million.

 

  Free cash flow before financing was £70 million after total investment spending of £784 million.

 

  China JV declared a first dividend of RMB 1.2 billion (JLR share RMB 0.6 billion).

 

  Moody’s upgrade from Ba2 to Ba1 (positive) in September 2016 following the upgrade by S&P from BB to BB+ (stable) in August 2016.

Market environment

The macroeconomic environment continued to be mixed in Q2 FY17. Despite ongoing uncertainty over Brexit and a further depreciation of the British Pound, UK economic data was generally positive in Q2 FY17. US economic conditions were generally favourable supported by consumer spending and stable labour market conditions. European GDP growth gradually improved although inflation and employment remain at lower levels. China’s economic growth remains on target (6.5% - 7.0%) as the government continues to support the economy with policy actions. Economic conditions in emerging markets remained challenging, however the increase in the oil price is more supportive of economies such as Russia and Brazil.

Jaguar Land Rover volume performance

Q2 FY17 total retail sales were a record for the second quarter at 142,459 units (including the China JV), up 29.3% compared to Q2 FY16, primarily driven by new F-PACE as well as strong sales of the XE (now on sale in the US), Discovery Sport and Evoque with strong year-on-year growth across key regions. By brand, Land Rover retailed 100,753 units in Q2 FY17, up 15.1% compared to Q2 FY16, and Jaguar retailed 41,706 units, up 84.2%.

Wholesales totalled 124,192 units (excluding China JV) in Q2 FY17, up 11.7% compared to the same quarter a year ago. By brand, Jaguar wholesales in Q2 FY17 were 41,938 units, up 93.4% compared to Q2 FY16 and Land Rover wholesales were 82,254 units, down 8.1%. By region, wholesales were up in the UK (5.2%), North America (22.3%), Europe (46.0%), and China (1.2%) but volumes in other Overseas markets, which include Russia and Brazil, fell by 14.3%.

1  Production of the Jaguar XK, Land Rover Freelander and the Land Rover Defender models have now been discontinued.
2  China JV retail volume in Q2 FY17 was 13,492 units (4,161 units of Evoque, 8,737 units of Discovery Sport and 594 units of XF).

Revenue and profits

Q2 FY17 revenue was £6.0 billion, up from the £4.8 billion in Q2 FY16 primarily driven by the 11.7% increase in wholesale volumes and favourable foreign exchange. Revenue for the 6 months to 30 September 2016 was £11.4 billion, up £1.6 billion compared to the same period a year ago.

EBITDA was £615 million (10.3% margin) in Q2 FY17, up slightly from the £589 million (12.2% margin) in Q2 FY16, primarily reflecting:

 

    Favourable volume and mix

 

    Favourable operating exchange offset by realised hedges

 

    Unfavourable FX revaluation of current assets and liabilities (£58m, up £11m) and a one-time provision for new customer quality programmes

EBITDA for the 6 months to 30 September 2016 was £1.3 billion (11.3% margin), down £123 million compared to the same 6 month period last year.

PBT was £280 million in Q2 FY17, up from a loss of £157 million a year ago predominantly reflecting:

 

    The higher EBITDA (up £26 million)

 

    Favourable unrealised FX (up £95 million) and commodity (up £69 million) hedge revaluation

 

    Primarily China JV profits of £33 million (up £34 million) and net finance expense (down £14 million), offset by higher depreciation and amortisation (up £45 million)

 

    Non-recurrence of £245 million exceptional Tianjin charge in Q2 FY16

PBT for the 6 months to 30 September 2016 was £679 million, up £198 million compared to the 6 months to 30 September 2015.

Table of Contents

PAT for Q2 FY17 was £244 million, compared to a loss of £92 million in the same period a year ago. The Q2 FY17 effective tax rate was 12.9%, reflecting a one-off credit as a result of the reduction in the UK’s headline rate of corporation tax to 17% that comes into effect from 1 April 2020. PAT for the 6 months to 30 September 2016 was £548 million, up £148 million compared to the same 6 month period a year ago.

Cash flow, liquidity and capital resources

Free cash flow before financing in Q2 FY17 was £70 million after £784 million of total investment spending, primarily reflecting EBITDA of £615 million and £182 million favourable working capital, non-cash accrual and other movements. In the quarter, £696 million of investment spending was capitalised and £88 million was expensed in EBITDA.

After the free cash flow of £70 million, finance expenses of £42 million and a £60 million increase in the utilisation of a short-term debt facility, cash and financial deposits at 30 September 2016 stood at £3.8 billion (comprising £2.4 billion of cash and cash equivalents and £1.4 billion of financial deposits). This includes an amount of £424 million held in subsidiaries of Jaguar Land Rover outside of the United Kingdom. The cash in some of these jurisdictions is subject to impediments to remitting cash to the UK other than through annual dividends. As at 30 September 2016, the Company also had an undrawn revolving credit facility totalling £1.9 billion, all maturing in July 2020, and £116 million of undrawn short-term committed credit facilities.

The China JV declared its first dividend of RMB 1.2 billion (JLR share RMB 0.6 billion) in Q2 FY17, which was paid in November 2016. Most of this dividend will be reinvested into the China JV as part of a future equity injection.

1 Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The information for the three and six month periods ended 30 September 2016 is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Jaguar Land Rover Automotive plc have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ under International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as adopted by the European Union (‘EU’).

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments held at fair value as highlighted in note 15.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as set out within the directors’ statement of responsibilities section of the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 March 2016.

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016, as described in those financial statements.

 

2 Exceptional item

The exceptional item of £1 million for the quarter ended 30 September 2016 relates to the continuing impact of the explosion at the port of Tianjin (China) in August 2015. The exceptional cost to the income statement for the quarter is the result of sales of vehicles being at a lower net realisable value than that estimated at 30 June 2016.

The process for finalising ongoing insurance claims may take some months to conclude, so further insurance and other potential recoveries will only be recognised in future periods when received or confirmed as receivable. Due to the size of the provision recorded, the charge together with the associated tax impact was disclosed as an exceptional item in fiscal 2016, as such any future recoveries will similarly be recognised as a reversal of that charge through exceptional items.

Product warranty provision

The Group offers warranty cover in respect of manufacturing defects, which become apparent one to five years after purchase, dependent on the market in which the purchase occurred.

Legal and product liability provision

A legal and product liability provision is maintained in respect of compliance with regulations, contractual obligations and known litigations which impact the Group.

Residual risk provision

In certain markets, the Group is responsible for the residual risk arising on vehicles sold by dealers on leasing arrangements. The provision is based on the latest available market expectations of future residual value trends. The timing of the outflows will be at the end of the lease arrangements – being typically up to three years.

Environmental liability provision

This provision relates to various environmental remediation costs such as asbestos removal and land clean up. The timing of when these costs will be incurred is not known with certainty.

15 Financial Instruments

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments held at fair value. These financial instruments are classified as level 2 fair value measurements, as defined by IFRS 13, being those derived from inputs other than quoted prices which are observable. There have been no changes in the valuation techniques used or transfers between fair value levels from those set out in note 34 to the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016.

The following tables show the carrying amounts and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities.

A scaling factor of 120% for males and 110% for females has been used for the Jaguar Pension Plan, 115% for males and 105% for females for the Land Rover Pension Scheme, and 95% for males and 85% for females for the Jaguar Executive Pension Plan. There is an allowance for future improvements in line with the CMI (2014) projections with an allowance for long-term improvements of 1.25 percent per annum.

19 Commitments and contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Group faces claims and assertions by various parties. The Group assesses such claims and assertions and monitors the legal environment on an on-going basis, with the assistance of external legal counsel wherever necessary. The Group records a liability for any claims where a potential loss is probable and capable of being estimated and discloses such matters in its financial statements, if material. For potential losses that are considered possible, but not probable, the Group provides a disclosure in the financial statements but does not record a liability in its accounts unless the loss becomes probable.

The following is a description of claims and assertions where a potential loss is possible, but not probable. Management believe that none of the contingencies described below, either individually or in aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Litigation and product related matters

The Group is involved in legal proceedings, both as plaintiff and as defendant. There are claims and potential claims of £6 million (31 March 2016: £6 million) against the Group which management have not recognised as they are not considered probable, along with other claims which at this stage cannot be reliably estimated. These claims and potential claims pertain to motor accident claims, consumer complaints, employment and dealership arrangements, replacement of parts of vehicles, personal injury claims and/or compensation for deficiency in the services by the Group or its dealers.

The Group has provided for the estimated costs of repair following the passenger safety airbag issue in the United States, Japan and Korea. The Group recognises that there is a potential risk of further recalls in other countries in the future, however, the Group are unable at this point in time to reliably estimate the amount and timings of any potential future costs associated with this warranty issue.

Other taxes and dues

During the year ended 31 March 2015, the Group’s Brazilian subsidiary received a demand for 167 million Brazilian Real (£40 million at 30 September 2016 exchange rates) in relation to additional indirect taxes (PIS and COFINS) claimed as being due on local vehicle and parts sales made in 2010. The matter is currently being contested before the Brazilian appellate authorities. Professional legal opinions obtained in Brazil fully support that the basis of the tax authority’s assertion is incorrect and, as a result, the likelihood of any settlement ultimately having to be made is considered remote. Accordingly, no provision has been recognised in the financial statements and the matter is disclosed here purely for the purposes of completeness.

The Group had no other significant tax matters in dispute as at 30 September 2016 or 31 March 2016 where a potential loss was considered possible.

Commitments and contingencies

The Group has entered into various contracts with vendors and contractors for the acquisition of plant and machinery, equipment and various civil contracts of capital nature aggregating £1,234 million (31 March 2016: £797 million) and £18 million (31 March 2016: £12 million) relating to the acquisition of intangible assets.

Commitments and contingencies also includes other contingent liabilities of £66 million (31 March 2016: £28 million).

The remaining financial commitments, in particular the purchase commitments and guarantees, are of a magnitude typical for the industry.

Inventory of £nil (31 March 2016: £nil) and trade receivables with a carrying amount of £154 million (31 March 2016: £116 million) and property, plant and equipment with a carrying amount of £nil (31 March 2016: £nil) and restricted cash with a carrying amount of £nil (31 March 2016: £nil) are pledged as collateral/security against the borrowings and commitments.

The Group’s share of capital commitments of its joint ventures at 30 September 2016 is £116 million (31 March 2016: £102 million) and other contingent liabilities of its joint ventures at 30 September 2016 is £1 million (31 March 2016: £nil).

20 Capital Management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure the going concern operation of its entities and to maintain an efficient capital structure to reduce the cost of capital, support the corporate strategy and to meet shareholder expectations.

The Group’s policy is to borrow primarily through capital market debt issues to meet anticipated funding requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity. The Group also maintains certain undrawn committed credit facilities to provide additional liquidity. These borrowings, together with cash generated from operations, are loaned internally or contributed as equity to certain subsidiaries as required. Surplus cash in subsidiaries is pooled (where practicable) and invested to satisfy security, liquidity and yield requirements.

The capital structure is governed according to Group policies approved by the Board and is monitored by various metrics such as interest cover, as per the debt covenants. Funding requirements are reviewed periodically with any debt issuances and capital distributions approved by the Board.

The following table summarises the capital of the Group:
