The Thread
A quick catch-up on the standout moments from across AtkinsRéalis and industry this month.
1. Strong start to 2026: Q1 results
AtkinsRéalis reported Q1 revenue of $3.0 billion (up 18% year over year), with Adjusted EBITDA up 18% and Diluted EPS of $0.56. Demand across Engineering Services and Nuclear remained robust, supporting a $20 billion backlog and strong visibility for the year ahead.
2. Growing in Ireland: TOBIN acquisition
AtkinsRéalis has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TOBIN , a Galway-headquartered engineering and project management consultancy with a long heritage in Ireland. The acquisition strengthens our Ireland footprint to 700+ colleagues and adds complementary capability across Building & Places, Water, Transportation, plus Environmental and Planning services.
3. 20-year SMR alliance with FANCO
AtkinsRéalis has signed a Strategic Alliance Agreement with First American Nuclear (FANCO) to act as the exclusive engineering, procurement, and construction management provider for EAGL-1 SMR projects in North America. Work is already underway, with initial task orders covering design governance and conceptual engineering as part of services worth up to $250 million over the first five years.
4. Expanding Defence advisory capability in Australia: Coras
AtkinsRéalis has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Coras , an Australian consultancy specialised in Defence and national security advisory services. By combining Coras’ trusted advisory expertise with AtkinsRéalis’ global engineering and infrastructure capabilities, we’re positioned earlier in Defence programmes where strategy and governance shape long-term outcomes.
5. Airports under pressure: insights from the latest ICE session
AtkinsRéalis and the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) launched the second edition of Beyond Engineering in the Middle East, opening with a session on airports as critical infrastructure and integrated mobility ecosystems. With UAE airports handling around 135 million passengers annually and hubs operating close to peak capacity, the session focused on earlier collaboration and clearer decision-making to deliver at scale.
