Atos publishes estimated 2024 year-end liquidity position well above business plan
Paris, France – January 20, 2025 – Atos SE (Euronext Paris : ATO) today publishes an estimated 2024 year-end liquidity position well above the level set out in the business plan presented as part of its Accelerated Safeguard Plan. This publication is part of the regular reporting requirements defined and agreed with the Group’s financial creditors.
As at December 31, 2024, Atos liquidity is estimated at €2,191 million, more than one billion euros above the €1,152 million expected cash position presented in the Accelerated Safeguard Plan, and includes:
Estimated €319 million of payments received from customers, mostly public sector customers paying in advance of invoice payment due dates;
€240 million of net proceeds from the sale of the Worldgrid business unit, which closed in December 2024;
€440 million of undrawn Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”).
These three items are not included in the definition of the year-end cash position included in the business plan of the accelerated safeguard plan that was approved by the specialized commercial Court of Nanterre on October 24, 2024 (the “Accelerated Safeguard Plan”).
Excluding these three items, the 2024 year-end cash position would be estimated at €1,192 million, €40 million better than the 2024 year-end cash position of €1,152 million presented in the Accelerated Safeguard Plan.
The liquidity report is available on the company website (https://atos.net/en/investors/financial-reports-for-creditors).
