The structural profiles are close, with AECOM carrying a narrow edge on profitability. Bouygues still leads on growth and stability, which keeps the comparison from looking entirely one-sided. In the market, Bouygues carries the stronger setup — intact trend against AECOM's broken trend. That leaves a split case: the structural lead stays with AECOM, but the market is not currently confirming it.
The comparison is based on similar long-term financial trajectories, not sector labels. Peer scores are normalised within each company's primary universe (ACM: Russell 1000, EN.PA: STOXX 600).
The comparison is mainly decided in profitability, while stability remains the main counterforce.
Both operate in: Engineering & Construction
This comparison is based on industry proximity, not on functional trajectory similarity. ACM and EN.PA share the same industry classification.
For a similarity-based comparison, see how AECOM and Bouygues each position within their functional peer groups in AssetNext.
Scores reflect position relative to comparable companies with similar long-term financial trajectories.
The clearest separation appears in profitability.
Left means cheaper relative valuation. Higher means stronger structure.
Bouygues SA occupies the cheaper side of the setup map, although AECOM still holds the stronger structural profile.
Valuation position uses peer-relative PE percentile (idx_pct_pe) where available.
Where ACM and EN.PA each sit in their own 5-year price and valuation history.
Describes historical entry positioning only. Descriptive — not investment advice.
The profitability lead is mainly driven by a 6-point operating margin advantage.
Stability still tilts materially toward Bouygues SA, which stops the result from looking dominant across the whole profile.
Profitability is the clearest driver of the lead, with stability adding further support — though growth still provides a real counterweight.

Rule-based, descriptive analysis only. Derived from peer percentile dimensions. Not investment advice. Peer groups are determined algorithmically based on structural similarity — not by sector classification alone.
AssetNext scores reflect each company's structural position within its functional peer group — not a ranking against all stocks simultaneously. Peers are identified by similarity across eight financial dimensions, including revenue growth trajectory, margin structure, capital intensity, and earnings stability. A score of 75 means the company ranks in the top quartile within its own peer group, not the entire market.
Four dimension scores drive the overall peer score: Growth (revenue trajectory and expansion dynamics), Quality (margin structure and capital efficiency), Valuation (peer-relative pricing on standard multiples), and Stability (earnings consistency and financial predictability). Each dimension is scored 0–100 relative to the peer group, then combined into an overall peer score using equal weighting.
Because scores are peer-relative, the same company can have slightly different scores in different index universes. On comparison pages, both companies are shown within their shared peer universe wherever possible — so the scores are directly comparable. The peer basis is stated on each score card.
Scores are recalculated periodically as underlying financial data is updated. All analysis is descriptive and rule-based — AssetNext describes structural realities and never issues buy, sell or hold recommendations.
