AECOM
AECOM is a professional services company that helps plan, design, and manage big infrastructure projects. It works on roads, bridges, rail systems, airports, water systems, power projects, buildings, and environmental cleanup. The company is not mainly a builder that pours concrete itself; it is the engineering and project management firm that helps turn large public and private projects from an idea into a finished asset. Its main customers are governments, transit agencies, utilities, and private developers that need technical expertise for complex projects. AECOM sells consulting, engineering, design, program management, and construction management services, and it earns most of its money from fees for that work. In some cases, it also helps oversee the work of contractors and coordinate many moving parts on a project. What makes AECOM different is its role in the infrastructure value chain. It sits between the owner of a project and the contractors who build it, giving clients technical advice, planning support, and day-to-day management from early concept through completion. That makes the business more tied to long-lived infrastructure spending and public works than to consumer demand or finished-product sales.

Record results: AECOM said second quarter NSR margins, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS all hit new second-quarter highs, while backlog rose 8% to a record.
Guidance raised: Management raised full-year profit guidance for the second time this year, and at the midpoint now expects adjusted EBITDA to rise 7% and adjusted EPS to rise 14% year over year.
AI traction: The company said its proprietary AI is already helping win major projects, including large re-competes, and is starting to improve margins and client delivery.
Backlog strength: Backlog and pipeline are both at record levels, and management said pipeline has grown by double digits for 3 straight quarters, giving strong visibility into the second half.
Middle East drag: The Middle East created about a 100 basis point headwind to NSR in the quarter and made guidance more cautious, but collections have already recovered in the third quarter.
End-market momentum: Demand was described as strong in U.S. infrastructure, defense, AI/data center work, Canada, and parts of the U.K. and Australia, while International transportation remains softer.
