The company supports manufacturers from the earliest stages of an automation program—discovery, analysis, concept development, simulation, and total cost of ownership modeling—through to engineering, building, commissioning, and long-term servicing of automated manufacturing and assembly systems. On the solutions side, ATS emphasizes comprehensive integration rather than isolated equipment. Typical engagements include planning and design of automated lines, development of manufacturing process controls, procurement and integration of equipment, installation, product line commissioning, validation, and documentation. In practice, this means ATS often works with customers to translate requirements into a complete system that can reliably run production at scale, including specification writing, prototyping, and process verification. ATS also provides post-automation support designed to protect production performance over time. This includes preventative maintenance, emergency/on-call assistance, spare parts supply, retooling, retrofits, and even equipment relocation. For customers, these services are intended to reduce unplanned downtime and extend the useful life of automation assets. A notable part of ATS’s offering includes advanced software and digital capabilities, particularly connected factory floor management systems. These solutions capture and analyze real-time machine performance data to diagnose issues, improve processes and products, prevent operational downtime, and drive efficiency improvements. This aligns with ATS’s broader positioning as both a systems integrator and a provider of ongoing optimization. In addition to project-based automation, ATS offers contract manufacturing and specialized engineering expertise. Where customers need speed, reduced engineering risk, or faster ramp-up, ATS’s combination of design/build capabilities and manufacturing support can streamline execution. From a cost perspective, ATS’s lifecycle approach (including total cost of ownership modeling) is aimed at helping customers select concepts and architectures that balance upfront investment with long-term operating and maintenance costs, spare parts strategy, and modernization/retrofit planning. Leadership and governance reflect ongoing executive stewardship by Douglas William Wright, CEO (joined as CEO in 2026 per investor relations materials). ATS was founded in 1978 and has grown from machine-builder origins into a global automation and technology company, employing over 7,000 people across a large network of manufacturing facilities and offices internationally. Customers served span multiple industries such as life sciences, transportation/mobility, consumer products, food and beverage, electronics, nuclear, packaging, warehousing and distribution, and energy.ExpandCollapse

Financial Statements of ATS

5Y Trend (Revenue, Earnings, FCF)

Metric	Latest	YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength.	QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes.
RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three).	$3.0B	+17.4%	-7.1%
Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day.	$71.6M	+355.4%	+98.1%
Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials.	+28.6%	+12.1%	+8.7%
Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on).	+7.5%	+1942.9%	+38.6%
Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales.	+2.4%	+317.6%	+97.9%
Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock.	$371.6M	+811.1%	+12.5%
FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine.	+12.5%	+705.9%	+21.1%
Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe.	80.8%	-19.0%	-4.4%
Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking.	1.64x	-2.9%	-0.6%
Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground.	$4.3B	-6.1%	-1.3%

Unknown Speaker

Operator: Welcome to the ATS Corporation First Quarter Conference Call and Webcast. This call is being recorded on August 6, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. [Operator Instructions] I'd now like to turn the call over to David Ocampo, Head of Investor Relations at ATS. David Ocampo: Thank you, operator, and good morning, everyone. On the call today are Doug Wright, Chief Executive Officer; and Anne Cybulski, Interim Chief Financial Officer. Please note that our remarks today are accompanied by a slide deck, which can be viewed via our webcast and available at atsautomation.com. We caution that the statements made on the webcast and conference call may contain forward-looking information and our cautionary statement regarding such information, including the material factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the statements and the material factors or assumptions applied in making the statements, are detailed in Slide 3 of the slide deck. And with that, it's my pleasure to turn the call over to Doug. Doug, over to you. Douglas Wright: Thank you, David, and good morning, everyone. Today, we reported first quarter results for fiscal 2027. Before discussing the quarter, I want to provide an update on conclusions from my portfolio review, the long-term demand profile in our chosen end markets and our path to margin expansion. Since joining ATS, I've completed a comprehensive portfolio review and site assessments across the organization. This process gave me a clearer view of both the strengths of the portfolio and the opportunities ahead and reinforced my confidence in the quality and commitment of our people, the depth of our technical expertise and the strength of our customer relationships. I was particularly impressed by the importance of our work our teams do every day. They solve complex scientific and manufacturing problems, help improve patient outcomes, support safe and high-quality food production and contribute to energy security. I am confident in the growth profile in the underlying markets in which we solve such problems and have such impact. Across all of our solutions and end markets, artificial intelligence is creating opportunities for ATS, both as a demand driver and as a capability that we are uniquely able to harness in our solutions because of our deep domain expertise. My overall optimism is reflected in positive outcomes across several areas of the business. In life sciences, the trailing 12-month book-to-bill, excluding GLP-1-related activity, was approximately 1.1x, driven by strength in radiopharmaceuticals. We also delivered 11% year-over-year growth in service-related revenues across the company. I have even more conviction today than I did in coming to ATS on the opportunities this company has in the markets in which we compete. It is this conviction that tells me that over time, we can operate above our stated operating margin target of 15% while continuing strong secular top line growth. What will …
