Marks and Spencer (M&S) has revealed it could lose up to £300 million in trading profits following last month’s ransomware attack, with operational disruptions expected to continue for months.
While the company plans to manage some costs to lessen the impact, disruptions to its operations are likely to last until July.
The cyberattack, linked to the hacker group Scattered Spider, has caused M&S’s online payment systems to remain offline. Partial website sales are expected to resume within a few weeks. Similar attacks targeted the Co-op and Harrods in late April. Both M&S and the Co-op confirmed that personal customer data, limited to names and contact details, were stolen, but payment information was not compromised.
