Responding to press speculation, the company said: "The group's focus remains on executing its strategy, building on the positive momentum in Q1 2026 and delivering the material improvement in financial performance expected in FY 2026, whilst ensuring sufficient liquidity to enable this."

It added that any further announcements will be made if and when required.

The statement came after Bloomberg reported that the car maker was in talks with funds including BlackRock-owned HPS Investment Partners to raise additional finances to shore up its available cash.

Bloomberg, which cited people familiar with the matter, said the funding would be backed by Aston Martin assets that would be placed beyond the reach of existing creditors - a manoeuvre known as drop-down. It was understood that law firm Simpson Thacher is advising the company.

At 1530 BST, the shares were down 1.4% at 36.48p.
