The Co-operative Group disclosed that its April 2025 cyberattack drove a £80 million ($107 million) operating-profit hit, showing the scale of the disruption. The attack forced parts of its IT systems offline, affected back-office and call-center services, and contributed to lost sales while recovery continued. Co-op also said hackers stole personal data and that it had to rebuild Windows domain controllers. The event matters because it combined operational disruption, data theft, and extended system unavailability at a major U.K. retail co-operative.
