UK Final Manufacturing PMI
It's a leading indicator of economic health - businesses react quickly to market conditions, and their purchasing managers hold perhaps the most current and relevant insight into the company's view of the economy;
Above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, below indicates contraction. The 'Previous' listed is the 'Actual' from the Flash release and therefore the 'History' data will appear unconnected. There are 2 versions of this report released about a week apart – Flash and Final. The Flash release, which the source first reported in Nov 2019, is the earliest and thus tends to have the most impact;

The UK manufacturing upturn continued at the end of the second quarter. June saw output and new orders both expand for the second successive month, with rates of expansion remaining close to the highs reached in May. There was a modest upswing in cost inflationary pressures, with input prices rising at the quickest pace since January 2023. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) registered 50.9 in June, down slightly from May's 22-month high of 51.2 and below the earlier flash estimate ...

The UK manufacturing sector returned to growth in May, as output expanded at the quickest pace in over two years on the back of improved intakes of new work. The outlook also brightened as manufacturers' positive sentiment rose to its highest level since early-2022, with 63% of companies expecting output to expand over the coming year. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) rose to 51.2 in May, up from 49.1 in April, its highest reading since July 2022 but a tick below the earlier flash ...

The UK manufacturing sector showed renewed signs of weakness at the start of the second quarter. April saw output and new orders slip back into contraction territory following short-lived upturns in March, as uncertain market conditions, client destocking and supply-chain disruption (mainly relating to the Red Sea crisis) stymied opportunities for sustained expansion. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) fell to 49.1 in April, down from March's 20-month high of 50.3. Four of the five ...

The UK manufacturing sector showed tentative signs of recovery in March, as output and new orders increased following year-long downturns. There were also other signs of stabilisation from the latest survey data, with rates of contraction in employment and purchasing activity slowing sharply and business optimism about the year-ahead outlook hitting an 11-month high. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) rose to a 20-month high of 50.3 in March, up from 47.5 in February and above the ...

Conditions in the UK manufacturing sector remained challenging during February, as the ongoing crisis in the Red Sea caused disruptions to both production and vendor delivery schedules. In several cases manufacturers mentioned that these disruptions were driving up costs as they attempted to locate alternative suppliers from more expensive markets closer to home. Demand also remained weak, with new order intakes falling at the fastest rate since last October. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ ...

The downturn in the UK manufacturing sector continued at the start of 2024. January saw output and new orders decline further, leading to additional job losses and cutbacks in purchasing and stock holdings. Manufacturers also experienced rising supply chain difficulties, as the Red Sea crisis led to the re-routing of input deliveries away from the Suez Canal. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) posted 47.0 in January, up from 46.2 in December but below the earlier flash estimate of ...

The UK manufacturing sector ended 2023 on a weak footing. The downturn in production volumes accelerated as intakes of new work from both domestic and export clients declined. The further slide in output volumes reflected overstocking at clients and tighter inventory policies at manufacturers. The support provided by efforts to clear backlogs of work was also less effective than in recent months. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI®) fell back to 46.2 in December, after rising to a ...

November saw the UK manufacturing sector potentially turning a corner. Although production contracted for the ninth consecutive month, the rate of decline eased sharply to its second-weakest during that sequence. The downturn in new orders, although still solid, also slowed during the month. Manufacturers nonetheless remained on a cautious footing, with ongoing market uncertainty and the need to control costs leading to job losses, stock depletion and lower purchasing. The seasonally adjusted S&P Global / CIPS UK Manufacturing ...
