Derbyshire Automotive Supplier Suffers £46M Revenue Drop Following JLR Cyberattack A cyberattack targeting Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) in late 2023 severely disrupted operations at OPmobility Exterior UK, a Derbyshire-based automotive supplier formerly known as Plastic Omnium Automotive. The incident forced a halt to JLR’s just-in-time manufacturing and assembly lines, directly impacting OPmobility’s production and financial performance. According to newly filed accounts, the company’s revenue plummeted by 18.5%, falling from £249.9 million in 2022 to £203.6 million in the year ending 31 December 2023. The attack’s immediate effects on supply chains and production schedules contributed to the £46.3 million decline, highlighting the vulnerability of automotive manufacturers to cyber threats. OPmobility, which supplies exterior components, reported that the disruption had a direct and material impact on its operations, though further details on the nature of the cyberattack remain undisclosed. The incident underscores the broader risks cyber incidents pose to interconnected industrial sectors.
