Paris, July 30th, 2026 - Atos Group, a global leader of AI-powered digital transformation, today announces its half year 2026 financial results. 

Philippe Salle, Atos Group chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer, stated:

“A year ago, our priority was recovery. Today, our priority is growth. We have stabilized the business, strengthened the balance sheet, accelerated operational performance and reignited commercial momentum. Most importantly, we have positioned Atos Group at the heart of three of the most powerful technology trends shaping the future: agentic artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and digital sovereignty.

 

As governments and enterprises rethink their digital infrastructure, they increasingly need trusted partners capable of combining innovation, scale, security and sovereignty. This is precisely where Atos Group stands today. The opportunities in front of us are substantial and we are entering this next chapter with confidence, ambition and a clear sense of purpose.

 

The turnaround of Atos Group is well underway. The years ahead will be about unlocking the full potential of the Group and establishing Atos as one of Europe’s leading technology champions in the AI era.”
