Publicis Groupe reported 4.1% organic net revenue growth in the Asia Pacific region during the first half of 2026, reflecting continued momentum across one of the company’s fastest-growing markets.
Globally, the advertising and communications group posted organic net revenue growth of 4.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Net revenue increased to €7.23 billion, compared with €7.15 billion in the corresponding period last year, while reported revenue stood at €8.73 billion.
The Asia Pacific performance came alongside steady growth across several regions, underlining the group’s diversified geographic footprint. Publicis has continued to expand its capabilities through investments in data, artificial intelligence, commerce and influencer marketing, while also strengthening its presence through acquisitions including Captiv8, Lotame, Moov AI, Chain Reaction and Atomic 212 during the period.
At the group level, EBITDA rose to €1.53 billion from €1.50 billion a year earlier, while operating margin improved to €1.26 billion. Net income attributable to shareholders stood at €793 million for the first half of the year.
Publicis said its broad-based growth across markets and continued investment in technology-led capabilities position the group well for the remainder of the year, as advertisers increasingly prioritise data-driven, AI-enabled and integrated marketing solutions.
