Since June 2022, Atos has closed four transactions and signed another one thus securing c.80% of the plan’s €700 million expected proceeds and demonstrating the Group’s ability to execute at pace.
The transaction perimeter represented c. 2% of total Group revenue in 2022 and does not include the Italian EuroHPC business which will be kept within Atos, nor the Unified Communications & Collaboration’s Italian operations, part of a separate divestment project. Subsequently to the transaction, Atos Italia changes its name and brand to become Lutech Advanced Solutions S.p.A, while remaining a key partner of the Atos Group.
