Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings Plc said it may raise more funds and will take further steps to cut costs and control cash as the coronavirus pandemic complicates the sports-carmaker’s comeback plan.

The British manufacturer reported a wider first-quarter loss and a 60% drop in revenue. The carmaker recently got a 536 million-pound ($663 million) capital injection from investors including its new chairman, billionaire Lawrence Stroll.
