French state buys Atos's advanced computing division
The French government is continuing its strategic acquisitions. After nationalizing the submarine telecoms cable manufacturer ASN for €350 million in November 2024, the Finance and Economy Ministery announced on Monday, June 2, that it had submitted an offer to acquire the advanced computing division of the tech firm Atos. The company has accepted the offer. "This step paves the way for the signing of a binding agreement in the coming weeks," the ministry stated. The government is expected to take full control by mid-2026, allowing time to complete all of the necessary legal steps. Negotiations had been underway since November 2024. The enterprise value of these operations is €410 million, of which €110 million consists of additional payments based on profitability indicators for the 2025 and 2026 fiscal years. The amount is below the €500-625 million range announced when negotiations began. Atos said that the difference "reflects the narrower scope of the transaction." The deal does not include the Vision AI division, including the British video analytics start-up Ipsotek, acquired by Atos in 2021, which will remain with the tech company.

French state offers to buy Atos nuclear tech
Atos has sought to sell assets as part of a restructuring plan to reduce its debt load. (RFI pic) PARIS : The French state has made a €410-million (US$468 million) offer to acquire a strategic division of tech firm Atos that includes supercomputers used in nuclear deterrence, the company said today. Atos, an Olympics partner which also has contracts with the French military, has sought to sell assets as part of a restructuring plan to reduce its debt load. The company said it received an offer from the state for its advanced computing business. The offer 'is a major step toward securing the strategic supercomputing activity,' finance minister Eric Lombard said in a separate statement. 'It is the state's responsibility, when warranted, to ensure the continuity and development of the country's most strategic industrial capabilities,' he said. The scope of the government's offer has changed since the two sides entered exclusive talks in November. It no longer includes Atos' artificial intelligence (AI)–powered video analytics business, Vision AI. 'I hope to conclude this acquisition process as swiftly as possible to secure the future of these critical activities for France,' Lombard said. The advanced computing division, which employs more than 2,500 people mostly in France, develops high-performance servers and supercomputers with critical defence and industrial applications. Atos expects the unit to generate nearly €800 million in revenue in 2025. A binding agreement is expected in the coming weeks, with the deal closing in 2026.
