What Atkinsrealis does

Canadian engineering, construction and nuclear-services company, formerly SNC-Lavalin, rebranded after acquiring the UK's Atkins.

Earns fees for engineering and project management, largely on cost-reimbursable terms, after exiting fixed-price turnkey construction contracts that caused heavy losses. Nuclear work, through its CANDU reactor business, is paid under long-running refurbishment and servicing contracts. Renamed in 2023 from SNC-Lavalin, which bought Britain's Atkins in 2017.

In one line: Canada's Fluor/Jacobs Engineering.

Is Atkinsrealis expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 19.9× against a peer median of 10.9×, 4th most expensive of 21 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 11% a year for seven years (Req g).

How has Atkinsrealis stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -7.2% against -16.8% for the median peer; over one year -9.1%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
