About Jacobs Engineering Group INC

Jacobs Engineering Group Inc /DE/ is a U.S.-listed company on the NYSE (United States) under ticker J, now operating under the name Jacobs Solutions Inc. For French-speaking investors, Jacobs is a global leader in engineering, consulting and complex program delivery, positioned at the intersection of critical infrastructure, environmental solutions, advanced industry and digital transformation. The company was founded more than 75 years ago and has been shaped by a long series of portfolio expansions and transformative acquisitions, including CH2M in 2017 and, more recently, PA Consulting, whose remaining stake was fully acquired in March 2026. Its headquarters are in Dallas, Texas, which firmly anchors the group in the U.S. industrial and technology landscape. Jacobs’ business is organized around several core end markets: water and environmental services, life sciences, advanced manufacturing, energy and power, transportation, cities & places, plus advisory, digital, data and program management capabilities. In practice, the company supports clients across the full asset lifecycle: strategy and consulting, feasibility studies, design, engineering, project management, execution, operations and optimization. That end-to-end model is a key competitive advantage versus narrower engineering firms or integrators with less capability in the early-stage advisory phase. From a competitive standpoint, Jacobs is one of the world’s leading design firms and was ranked No. 1 in ENR’s 2026 Top 500 Design Firms list, also posting top-tier positions in manufacturing, sewer and waste, telecommunications, transportation and industrial process. This ranking underscores the company’s technical credibility, broad client base and ability to win large, multi-year programs. Jacobs is also well aligned with long-term structural themes: infrastructure renewal, data center and AI-driven demand, energy security, water scarcity, climate resilience and the rising complexity of industrial projects. Recent developments reinforce the investment case. In its fiscal second quarter 2026, Jacobs reported strong results, raised guidance again and highlighted record backlog. In March 2026, it completed the acquisition of the remaining stake in PA Consulting, strengthening its advisory, innovation and digital transformation platform. For investors in France, Belgium or Switzerland, Jacobs offers exposure to U.S. infrastructure spending, diversified end-market demand and potential margin expansion through higher-value services. Overall, it is a high-quality NYSE-listed industrial services platform in the United States with a meaningful strategic pivot toward more resilient, technology-enabled growth.
