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

Jaguar Land Rover achieved retail sales of 145,510 (including China JV sales) in Q1 FY19, up 5.9% year on year, primarily reflecting the introduction of the new Range Rover Velar and the Jaguar E-PACE. However, wholesales (including the China JV) were 131,560, 13,590 units lower than retails reflecting de-stocking to re-balance inventories and the impact of the duty change in China, effective 1st July 2018, which also drove higher incentives in that market.

The lower wholesales and higher China incentives combined with unfavourable balance sheet currency revaluation and higher depreciation and amortisation from continuing investment led to a pre-tax loss for the quarter of £264 million. Earnings before interest, tax and depreciation (EBITDA) were £325 million (6.2% margin).

Key metrics/highlights for Q1 FY19 results, compared to Q1 FY18, are as follows:

 

 

Retail sales of 145.5k units (including the China JV), up 5.9%

 

 

Wholesales of 131.6k units (including the China JV), down 5.0%

 

 

Revenue of £5.2 billion, down from £5.6 billion

 

 

Loss before tax £264 million, compared to £571 million PBT after the £437 million exceptional pension credit in Q1 FY18 (Q1 FY18 PBT before exceptional items £133 million)

 

 

Loss after tax £210 million, compared to PAT (after exceptional items) of £452 million in Q1 FY18

 

 

EBITDA margin was 6.2% and EBIT margin was (3.7)%

 

 

Free cash flow was negative £1.7 billion after total product and other investment spending of £1.1 billion and £1.0 billion of seasonal working capital outflows

Market environment

Most major economies continued to show solid growth in Q1 FY19, while weaker economic performance and continued uncertainty over Brexit is impacting growth in the UK.

Q1 FY19 automotive industry volumes were up in China (7.0% albeit with higher incentives in advance of a lower duty rate effective 1 July), in the US (2.1% albeit with continuing high incentives), Europe (3.7%) and in the UK (2.4%. Sales grew in Europe and in the UK despite continuing uncertainty around diesel, down 25.8% in the UK but offset by increased sales of petrol’s and electric vehicles.

The total industry car volume data above has been compiled using relevant data available at the time of publishing this Interim Report, compiled from national automotive associations such as the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders in the UK and the ACEA in Europe, according to their segment definitions, which may differ from those used by JLR.

Jaguar Land Rover Q1 FY19 sales volumes year-on-year performance

Retail sales were 145,510 units (including the China JV), up 5.9%, driven by the introduction of the Range Rover Velar (up 15.5k units), new Discovery (up 1.6k units), Jaguar E-PACE (11.3k units) and the refreshed Range Rover Sport (up 0.5k units) partially offset by lower retails of other models, notably Evoque, Discovery Sport and Jaguar F-PACE. There is strong demand for the Jaguar I-PACE battery electric vehicle which is now on sale with c. 5.5 months order cover. By region, retail sales were up in Overseas markets (20.3%), the UK (14.3%), North America (8.8%), China (2.5%), but down in Europe (7.3%).

Wholesales totalled 131,560 units (including the China JV), down 5.0% as the introduction of the Range Rover Velar, Jaguar E-PACE and refreshed Range Rover Sport were offset by lower sales of other models primarily relating to the China duty change and de-stocking to rebalance inventories. By region, JLR wholesales were up in Overseas markets (29.3%) but down in other markets including Europe (16.3%), the UK (14.8%), North America (6.4%) and China (3.7%),

China JV retail volume in Q1 FY19 was 21,181 units (9,635 units of Discovery Sport, 3,316 units of Evoque, 4,468 units of Jaguar XFL and 3,762 units of Jaguar XEL). China JV retail volume in Q1 FY18 was 20,309 units (10,637 units of Discovery Sport, 4,694 units of Evoque, 4,978 units of Jaguar XFL)

Q1 FY19 revenue and profits

For the quarter ended 30 June 2018, revenue was £5.2 billion, down £377 million year on year, primarily reflecting the change in China import duty effective 1st July 2018 and de-stocking.

The loss before tax was £264 million, compared to PBT of £133 million (excluding the £437m exceptional pension credit) in Q1 FY18, primarily reflecting:

 

   

Lower sales and higher incentives in China in advance of the reduction on import duty (£110 million)

 

   

Other market equation — mainly de-stocking and WLTP (£69 million)

 

   

FX balance sheet revaluation (£189 million) less favourable net FX hedging (£138 million)

 

   

Higher manufacturing, commodity and warranty costs (£90 million)

 

   

Higher depreciation and amortisation (£99 million)

EBITDA was £325 million (6.2% margin) and the loss before interest and tax (EBIT) was £194 million (-3.7% margin) in the quarter, compared to EBITDA of £442 million (7.9% margin) and EBIT of £69 million (1.2% margin) in Q1 FY18. The loss after tax (PAT) was £210 million this quarter, compared to the restated PAT of £452 million (after the £437 million pension credit) in Q1 FY18.

Cash flow, liquidity and capital resources

Free cash flow was negative £1.7 billion after £1.1 billion of total product and other investment spending and £1.0 billion of seasonal working capital outflows in Q1 FY19. In the quarter, £967 million of investment spending was capitalised and £99 million was expensed through the income statement.

Cash and financial deposits at 30 June 2018 stood at £2.8 billion (comprising £1.3 billion of cash and cash equivalents and £1.5 billion of other financial deposits) after the free cash flow, a £34 million net increase in the utilisation of a short-term debt facility and £225 million dividend paid to our parent TML Holdings Pte. Ltd. The cash and financial deposits include an amount of £386 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 June 2018, the Company also had an undrawn revolving credit facility totalling £1.9 billion, maturing in July 2022, and £25 million equivalent of an unutilised short-term uncommitted receivable factoring facility.

Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial information in these interim financial statements 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 18.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018, 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’ report of the Group’s Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2018.

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018, as described in those financial statements except as described below.

Change in accounting policies

The Group has had to change its accounting policy and make material retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting the following new standards:

 

   

IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’

 

   

IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’

The impact of the adoption of these standards and the new accounting policies are disclosed in note 2.

Estimates and judgements

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018.

Change in accounting policies

This note explains the impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on the group’s financial statements which have been applied from 1 April 2018.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities and introduces a new impairment model for financial assets and new rules for hedge accounting.

The Group has undertaken an assessment of classification and measurement on transition and has not identified a material impact on the financial statements given that equity investments which are not equity accounted are valued at fair value through profit or loss.

The Group has undertaken an assessment of the impairment provisions, especially with regards to trade receivables and has applied the simplified approach under the standard. For all principal markets, the Group operates with major financial institutions who take on the principal risks of sales to customers and consequently the Group receive full payment for these receivables between 0–30 days. Therefore the Group has concluded that there is no material impact under the standard for remeasurement of impairment provisions.

The Group has undertaken an assessment of its hedge relationships and has concluded that the Group’s current hedge relationships qualified as continuing hedges upon the adoption of IFRS 9. The Group has identified a change with respect to the treatment of the cost of hedging, specifically the time value of the foreign exchange options and foreign currency basis included in the foreign exchange forwards and cross-currency interest rate swaps. The time value of foreign exchange options and the foreign currency basis included in the foreign exchange forwards and cross-currency interest rate swaps is now recorded in a separate component of the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign exchange gains/(losses) for non-financial items will now be recognised as an adjustment to that non-financial item (i.e. inventory) when recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and this adjustment has been made on a prospective basis from 1 April 2018. A transition adjustment has been recognised for this.

Change in accounting policies (continued)

 

As required under the transition rules of IFRS 9, comparative periods have been restated only for the retrospective application of the cost of hedging approach for the time value of the foreign exchange options and also voluntarily application for foreign currency basis included in the foreign exchange forwards and cross-currency interest rate swaps. Accordingly, the information presented for prior periods is not wholly comparable to the information presented for current year. The financial impact of this change is as follows:

 

Balance sheet item

(£ millions)

  

Change as at 31 March 2018 as a

result of adoption of IFRS 9

  

Reason for change

Retained earnings    (22)    Time value of options recognised in Cost of Hedge Reserve as per IFRS 9.
Hedge reserve    64    Basis spread adjustment recognised as a separate component of OCI.
Cost of hedge reserve    (46)    Time value of options and basis spread adjustment recognised as a separate component of OCI.

In addition, under the published change issued by the IASB in February 2018 regarding the modification of financial liabilities, an additional charge of £5 million has been recognised for the financial year ended 31 March 2018 representing the loss recognised on the modification of the Group’s undrawn revolving credit facility.

The income statement impact for the adoption of IFRS 9 was a reduction in ‘profit before tax’ of £24 million and a £20 million reduction in ‘profit after tax’ for the 3 month period ended 30 June 2017.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers replaces IAS 18 Revenue and IAS 11 Construction Contracts and related interpretations (such as IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes).

The Group has applied the modified retrospective application approach and has not restated prior comparative financial information.

The primary impact on the Group relates to consideration payable to customers, which the standard defines as discounts, rebates, refunds or other forms of disbursement to customers (such as retailers) or end customers (as part of the overall distribution chain), where a service is not received in return and, if a service is received in return, where it cannot be fair-valued. The treatment of such items is a reclassification of marketing expenses to revenue reductions and this totalled £23 million for the 3 month period ended 30 June 2018.

Other specific impacts on the Group relates to the treatment of associated vehicle sale performance obligations, and the assessment of principal versus agent in providing or arranging for storage, freight and in-transit insurance alongside the sale of a vehicle. These transport arrangements are made when delivering vehicles to retailers across the global network. The Group has determined that it is an agent in providing these services, and has amended the presentation of these amounts from a gross basis (i.e. revenues and costs separately) to a net basis (where consideration received will be presented net of associated costs in the income statement). The financial impact of this change is a reclassification of costs against revenue of £79 million for the 3 month period ended 30 June 2018.

The Group has reclassified royalty income and incremental income from customers from ‘Other income’ to ‘Revenue’ and this totalled £35 million for the 3 month period ended 30 June 2018. The result of the changes discussed above has not materially impact profit before tax or the Group’s EBIT for the 3 month period ended 30 June 2018.

Alternative Performance Measures

In reporting financial information, the Group presents alternative performance measures (‘APMs’) which are not defined or specified under the requirements of IFRS. The Group believes that these APMs, which are not considered to be a substitute for or superior to IFRS measures, provide stakeholders with additional helpful information on the performance of the business.

The APMs used within this Annual Report are defined below.

 

Alternative Performance
Measure

      

Definition

EBITDA      EBITDA is defined as profit before income tax expense, exceptional items, finance expense (net of capitalised interest), finance income, gains/losses on unrealised derivatives and debt, gains/losses on realised derivatives entered into for the purpose of hedging debt, share of profit/loss from equity accounted investments, depreciation and amortisation.
EBIT      EBIT is defined as for EBITDA but including share of profit/loss from equity accounted investments, depreciation and amortisation.
Free cash flow      Net cash generated from operating activities less net cash used in investing activities (excluding movements in short-term deposits) and after finance expenses and fees and payments of lease obligations. Free cash flow before financing also includes foreign exchange gains/losses on short-term deposits and cash and cash equivalents.
Total product and other investment      Cash used in the purchase of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, investments in subsidiaries, equity accounted investments and other trading investments and expensed research and development costs.
Operating cash flow before investment      Fee cash flow before financing excluding total product and other investment.
Working capital      Changes in assets and liabilities as presented in note 24. This comprises movements in assets and liabilities excluding movements relating to financing or investing cash flows or non-cash items that are not included in EBIT or EBITDA.
Retail sales      Jaguar Land Rover retail sales represent vehicle sales made by dealers to end customers and include the sale of vehicles produced by our Chinese joint venture, Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
Wholesale sales      Wholesales represent vehicle sales made to dealers. The Group recognises revenue on wholesales.

The Group uses EBITDA as an APM to review and measure the underlying profitability of the Group on an ongoing basis for comparability as it recognises that increased capital expenditure year-on-year will lead to a corresponding increase in depreciation and amortisation expense recognised within the consolidated income statement.

The Group uses EBIT as an APM to review and measure the underlying profitability of the Group on an ongoing basis as this excludes volatility on unrealised foreign exchange transactions. Due to the significant level of debt and currency derivatives, unrealised foreign exchange distorts the financial performance of the Group from one period to another.

Free cash flow is considered by the Group to be a key measure in assessing and understanding the total operating performance of the Group and to identify underlying trends.

Total product and other investment is considered by the Group to be a key measure in assessing cash invested in the development of future new models and infrastructure supporting the growth of the Group.

Operating cash flow before investment is used as a measure of the operating performance and cash available to the Group before the direct cash impact of investment decisions.

Working capital is considered by the Group to be a key measure in assessing short-term assets and liabilities that are expected to be converted into cash within the next 12-month period.

Included in ‘Provisions made during the period’ is £(3) million arising in connection with warranty arrangements with suppliers that are classified in ‘Other financial assets’.

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 and the vehicle purchased. The estimated liability for product warranty is recognised when products are sold or when new warranty programmes are initiated. These estimates are established using historical information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims and management estimates regarding possible future warranty claims, customer goodwill and recall complaints. The discount on the warranty provision is calculated using a risk-free discount rate as the risks specific to the liability, such as inflation, are included in the base calculation. The timing of outflows will vary as and when a warranty claim will arise, being typically up to five years.

Legal and product liability provision

A legal and product liability provision is maintained in respect of compliance with regulations and known litigations that impact the Group. The provision primarily relates to motor accident claims, consumer complaints, dealer terminations, employment cases, personal injury claims and compliance with regulations. The timing of outflows will vary as and when claims are received and settled, which is not known with certainty.

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.

Other employee benefits obligations

This provision relates to the LTIP scheme for certain employees.

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 35 to the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018.

The following tables show the carrying amounts and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximations of fair values.

Employee benefits (continued)

 

For the valuations at 30 June 2018 and 31 March 2018, the mortality assumptions used are the SAPS base table, in particular S2PxA tables and the Light table for members of the Jaguar Executive Pension Plan.

For the Jaguar Pension Plan, scaling factors of 113 per cent to 119 per cent have been used for male members and scaling factors of 102 per cent to 114 per cent have been used for female members.

For the Land Rover Pension Scheme, scaling factors of 108 per cent to 113 per cent have been used for male members and scaling factors of 102 per cent to 111 per cent have been used for female members.

For the Jaguar Executive Pension Plan, an average scaling factor of 95 per cent has been used for male members and a scaling factor of 85 per cent has been used for female members.

There is an allowance for future improvements in line with the CMI (2017) projections and an allowance for long-term improvements of 1.25 per cent per annum.

Following consultation with employees, on 3 April 2017, the Group approved and communicated to its defined benefit schemes’ members that the defined benefit schemes’ rules were to be amended with effect from 6 April 2017. As a result, among other changes, future retirement benefits will be calculated each year and revalued until retirement in line with a prescribed rate rather than based upon a member’s final salary at retirement. As a result of the remeasurement of the schemes’ liabilities, a past service credit of £437 million arose and was recognised in the three month period ended 30 June 2017.

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 ongoing 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 disclosure in the consolidated financial statements but does not record a liability unless the loss becomes probable. Such potential losses may be of an uncertain timing and/or amount.

The following is a description of claims and contingencies where a potential loss is possible, but not probable. Management believes 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 £17 million (31 March 2018: £17 million) against the Group which management has not recognised, as settlement is not considered probable. These claims and potential claims pertain to motor accident claims, consumer complaints, employment and dealership arrangements, replacement of parts of vehicles and/or compensation for deficiency in the services by the Group or its dealers.

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

Other taxes and duties

Contingencies and commitments include tax contingent liabilities of £42 million (31 March 2018: £42 million). These mainly relate to tax audits and tax litigation claims.

Commitments

The Group has entered into various contracts with vendors and contractors for the acquisition of plant and equipment and various civil contracts of capital nature aggregating to £962 million (31 March 2018: £853 million) and £16 million (31 March 2018: £15 million) relating to the acquisition of intangible assets.

Commitments and contingencies also includes other contingent liabilities of £138 million (31 March 2018: £149 million). The timing of any outflow will vary as and when claims are received and settled, which is not known with certainty.

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

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure the going concern operation of all subsidiary companies within the Group and to maintain an efficient capital structure to support ongoing and future operations of the Group and to meet shareholder expectations.

The Group issues debt, primarily in the form of bonds, 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 and funding requirements are regularly monitored by the JLR plc Board to ensure sufficient liquidity is maintained by the Group. All debt issuance and capital distributions are approved by the JLR plc Board.

The following table summarises the capital of the Group:
