Atos sees revenue decline and sets its sights on acquisitions from 2026 onwards
"After financial problems that nearly brought the company down in 2024, it underwent a major restructuring that reduced its debt by €2.1 billion. Banks and bondholders became the main shareholders in the process. Since then, CEO Philippe Salle has been working on a recovery plan that focuses on divestments, cost savings, and targeted investments in strategic sectors such as defense and high-performance computing."
"Atos' revenue in the third quarter amounted to €1.98 billion, a decrease of 10.5 percent compared to the same period last year. The decline was particularly noticeable in North America and the United Kingdom, where contract losses weighed heavily. In contrast, the Eviden division, responsible for supercomputers, among other things, showed strong growth thanks to the Jupiter contract worth approximately €200 million. Atos managed to limit net cash outflow in the quarter to €38 million, despite €87 million in restructuring costs."
Atos reported third-quarter 2025 revenue of €1.98 billion, down 10.5% year-on-year, mainly due to contract losses in North America and the United Kingdom. The Eviden division grew strongly from the Jupiter supercomputer contract of approximately €200 million. The group limited net cash outflow to €38 million despite €87 million in restructuring costs, and maintained a cash position of €1.77 billion above agreed minimums. A 2024 restructuring reduced debt by €2.1 billion and made banks and bondholders the main shareholders. CEO Philippe Salle plans divestments, cost savings, and targeted investments in defense and high-performance computing, and postpones acquisition activity until September 2026, targeting medium-sized deals for 2027–2028.
