Aston Martin Lagonda Global (LON:AML – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings results on Wednesday. The company reported GBX (15.20) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, Digital Look Earnings reports. Aston Martin Lagonda Global had a negative return on equity of 121.47% and a negative net margin of 38.50%.
Here are the key takeaways from Aston Martin Lagonda Global’s conference call:
- H1 financial performance improved: Revenue rose 38% to £629 million, wholesale volumes increased 21% to 2,331 units, and gross margin expanded to 34% from 28%. Management reaffirmed its full-year 2026 guidance, including gross margin reaching the high 30% range.
- Valhalla deliveries are supporting the product mix: More than 220 units of the £1.1 million-plus plug-in hybrid supercar were delivered in H1, with around 500 expected for the full year. Management said the order book extends into late Q4 and that upcoming launches and events could support further demand.
- Cash flow and operational metrics are trending better: Free cash outflow narrowed to £198 million from £321 million a year earlier, while quality and customer-satisfaction measures improved. Excluding £73 million of Q2 net cash interest payments, quarterly free cash flow was close to breakeven.
- Dealer support and aged inventory remain a near-term issue: Core ASP declined 5% year over year because of elevated support to reduce aged stock, and the inventory reduction was somewhat slower than planned. Management expects support levels, quality costs, and marketing spending to normalize in H2, helping margins recover.
- Leverage and financing costs remain substantial: Net debt increased to £1.5 billion, with adjusted net leverage at 8.9x, while H1 adjusted EBIT was still a £109 million loss. The new £550 million financing lifts pro forma liquidity to roughly £340 million but raises full-year net cash interest guidance to approximately £160 million.
