Omnicom has reported revenue of $6.2 billion for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, reflecting an increase compared to the same period last year. The company has recorded 3.9% organic growth in its core operations, with total core revenue reaching $5.6 billion.
The company has posted diluted earnings per share of $1.35, while non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS has increased by 12% to $1.90. Operating income has reached $646.2 million, and adjusted EBITA has stood at $861.4 million with a margin of 13.8%.
Revenue growth has been driven by both organic expansion and foreign exchange impact. Core operations revenue has increased by $350.9 million, supported by $206.7 million in organic growth and $144.2 million from currency translation.
The company has seen significant contribution from its integrated media segment, which has accounted for 51.5% of core revenue at $2.9 billion. Advertising has contributed 16.8%, followed by public relations at 11.7%, experiential and other services at 10.4%, and health at 9.5%.
Regionally, the United States has contributed 61.4% of total core revenue, followed by Europe, the United Kingdom, and Asia Pacific markets.
The increase in overall revenue and operating expenses has largely been attributed to the acquisition of Interpublic Group, which closed in November 2025. The acquisition has contributed to higher salary, service, and integration-related costs during the quarter.
Operating income has increased by $193.6 million year-on-year, while net income attributable to the company has risen to $405.2 million. Adjusted EBITA from core operations has grown by 27.3% to $833.5 million, with margin improving to 14.8%.
The company has also reported an increase in operating expenses to $5.6 billion, primarily due to acquisition-related costs, integration expenses, and higher service costs linked to revenue growth.
Despite higher expenses, the company has maintained profitability, supported by cost synergies and operational efficiencies following the integration of acquired businesses.
“Our strong first quarter performance as the new Omnicom reflects our new integrated capabilities, core portfolio operations, and successful integration activities. With the largest global media platform, proprietary data and identity capabilities, and our AI-powered Omni platform in full operation, we are uniquely equipped to help clients address an increasingly fragmented and complex marketing environment,” said John Wren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Omnicom.
“In the quarter, we delivered solid revenue growth and double-digit growth in Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS. We are also on track to achieve substantial cost reduction synergies and $3.5 billion in share repurchases this year under our $5.0 billion authorization. This combination of operational excellence and disciplined capital allocation positions us to deliver profitability and earnings-per-share growth that will set a new standard for our sector,” said John Wren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Omnicom.
