CIRCLE8 GROUP INC

Atlantic International Corp (NASDAQ: ATLN) operates as a leading provider of strategic staffing and workforce solutions through its primary operating subsidiaries. The company's website is www.atlantic-international.com.

The company operates through two main business segments following its January 2026 acquisition of Circle8 Group. Lyneer Staffing Solutions, acquired in June 2024, provides comprehensive staffing services across food production, manufacturing, and logistics sectors throughout North America. Lyneer maintains over 100 locations and approximately 300 internal employees while placing approximately 60,000 engagement professionals annually across its client base of more than 1,200 customers. The company offers temporary placement, direct hire and permanent placement services, vendor management services, and managed service provider support across verticals including accounting and finance, customer service, hospitality, professional and medical services, and light industrial sectors.

Circle8 Group, a European-based IT and technology staffing company founded in 1987, extends Atlantic's capabilities into specialized high-growth technology talent solutions. Circle8 manages access to approximately 16,000 technology professionals deployed across its client network and operates primarily across Europe through a portfolio of specialized brands including Swisslinx and Seven Stars. Circle8 provides temporary and contract staffing, payrolling services, permanent placement, consulting enablement, and managed workforce programs focused on software development, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and data engineering professionals.

The combined organization generated revenues from both industrial staffing and technology talent placement services, with Lyneer historically serving as the larger revenue contributor. One Lyneer client represented approximately 16 percent of Lyneer's 2024 revenues, while Circle8's two largest clients represented approximately 12.5 percent and 10.2 percent of Circle8's 2025 revenues respectively.

Atlantic's business model emphasizes integration of services through advanced technology, deep functional expertise, and operational excellence. The company competes against large global staffing firms including The Adecco Group and Randstad, as well as regional and specialized providers. The staffing industry remains highly fragmented with low startup costs and significant consolidation opportunities, which Atlantic pursues through its acquisition strategy targeting high-margin profitable outsourced services and workforce solution providers.
