--- title: "Jacobs Solutions: Competitors" description: "Jacobs Solutions compared with companies that share its SEC industry classification: revenue, growth and margins from SEC filings, and how peers are chosen." canonical: https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/jacobs-solutions/competitors/ source: "Swoopr Investment: https://www.getswoopr.com" --- # Jacobs Solutions: Competitors & Industry Structure ## Direct Answer SEC EDGAR classifies Jacobs Solutions under SIC code 1600 (Heavy Construction Other Than Bldg Const - Contractors). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 8 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, Jacobs Solutions ranks 2 of 9. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes. ## How Does Jacobs Solutions Compare With Its Peers? | Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Fluor Corporation (FLR)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/fluor-corporation/) | $15.5 billion FY2025 | -5.0% | -2.4% | -0.3% | | **Jacobs Solutions (J)** | $12.0 billion FY2025 | 4.6% | 7.2% | 2.4% | | [Ferrovial (FER)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/ferrovial/) | €9.6 billion FY2025 | 5.2% | n/a | 9.2% | | [KBR Inc.

Select the chart to open it full size.* ## How Does Jacobs Solutions Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code? 8 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 1600 (Heavy Construction Other Than Bldg Const - Contractors), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars. | Measure | Jacobs Solutions | Median of filers | Rank | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | $12.0 billion | $1.7 billion | 2 of 8 | | Revenue growth | 4.6% | 3.6% | 4 of 8 | | Operating margin | 7.2% | 4.4% | 4 of 8 | | Net margin | 2.4% | 1.3% | 4 of 8 | A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality. ## Where These Numbers Come From Every figure on this page is a value Jacobs Solutions reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0001628280-25-053316 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 7, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary. Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Who are Jacobs Solutions's competitors?
