The higher profitability year on year reflected increased volume and reduced material costs, offset partially by increased marketing spend compared to a year ago, JLR said.
Profit after tax in Q4 was GBP1.4bn compared with GBP259m a year ago. Full year pretax profit was GBP2.2bn, the highest since FY15 and full year tax paid profit was GBP2.6bn due to recognition of a deferred tax asset of GBP1bn.
JLR said it expected EBIT margins in FY25 to be “around the FY24 level”.
“We anticipate a modest increase in investment spend to £3.5bn but still expect to become net debt zero during FY25.”
