Amentum-Led Consortium Wins New Nuclear Build Contract in Netherlands Worth $207M
A consortium led by Amentum has won a new contract to provide program management and technical solutions for planning and development of nuclear new build in the Netherlands. The NEXUS-NL consortium, comprising Amentum, Arcadis, Tractebel, and NRG PALLAS, will work on the development of up to two new gigawatt-scale power plants to support the nation's strategies for decarbonization and energy security and will support the Nuclear Energy Organisation Netherlands, which will be established next month. Valued at a maximum of $207M, the two-year framework agreement, with options for three additional one-year extensions, was awarded by the Ministry of Climate Policy and Green Growth. In the initial phase, the consortium will oversee site characterization, technology selection, and planning work scope for site enabling, utility connections and transportation links.

Artemis II Mission Progress and Stock Implications
- Launch Preparation Progress: NASA successfully moved the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft to Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center on January 17, preparing for the Artemis II mission's approximately 10-day crewed flight test scheduled for February 6, marking a significant step towards returning humans to the moon.
- Market Potential Analysis: The long-term goals of the Artemis program include returning to the moon and exploring Mars, which is expected to boost stock performance for smaller companies like Karman Holdings, MDA Space, and Graham Corp., all of which play critical roles in the initiative.
- Karman Holdings Acquisition: Karman Holdings recently acquired Seemann Composites LLC for $220 million, expanding its operations into the maritime defense market while providing machining and welding services for key Artemis components, showcasing its growth potential in the aerospace sector.
- Graham Corp. Performance Growth: Graham Corp. reported a 23% year-over-year revenue increase to $66 million in its second-quarter earnings, with a significant rise in order volume leading to a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3, indicating strong market demand and optimistic future growth prospects.

Amentum Secures Up to $730M Contracts with EDF for Nuclear Support
- Significant Contract Value: Amentum has secured new contracts with Électricité de France (EDF) valued at up to $730 million (£540 million), which will further solidify its position in the UK nuclear sector, particularly in supporting existing reactors and the construction of the new Hinkley Point power station.
- Long-term Partnership: Since signing a lifetime enterprise agreement in 2015, Amentum has provided technical services across EDF's UK nuclear fleet, enabling EDF to achieve an aggregate 38 years of life extension across seven advanced gas-cooled reactor stations, demonstrating the depth and breadth of their collaboration.
- Professional Services Framework: The new contracts include 10-year professional services agreement frameworks with Hinkley Point C nuclear power station, aimed at supporting new build programs, operating stations, and their engineering capability hub, which is expected to enhance operational efficiency and safety.
- Project Management Resources: Additionally, Amentum has secured a five-year project management resources framework contract to support station operations, life extension, and decommissioning preparations, further enhancing its comprehensive service capabilities in the nuclear energy sector.
