Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- H1 2026 revenue grew 2.5% organically; nuclear grew 8.0%.
- France delivered 4.2% organic growth on new-builds, fuel cycle, and digitalisation.
- UK momentum accelerated after April 2026 SMR, CPS2, and MoD framework wins.
What critics are saying
- Nuclear concentration leaves Assystem exposed if French EPR2 schedules slip beyond 2027.
- H1 2026 international revenue fell from currency hits and project endings in India.
- Rolls-Royce SMR still needs FID, regulatory clearance, and site decisions before revenue scales.
What makes ASSYSTEM unique
- Assystem derived 81% of H1 2026 revenue from nuclear engineering.
- April 2026 UK wins placed Assystem on CPS2 and MoD delivery frameworks.
- January 2025 Mactech Energy Group deepened Assystem's UK nuclear construction capabilities.
