Revenue rose to $6.4 billion from $4.0 billion, mainly due to the Interpublic (IPG) acquisition, and diluted EPS rose to $2.38 from $1.75. The results show progress on integration, though the filing does not include updated full-year guidance.

Omnicom's longtime Chief Accounting Officer, Andrew Castellaneta, retired effective immediately on October 1, 2026, after more than 25 years with the company, and will stay on as an employee for a period to ease the transition. The board appointed Jordan Farnam, who has been with Omnicom since January 2024, as Vice President, Global Financial Reporting and Chief Accounting Officer, effective immediately. The filing says the retirement was not due to any disagreement with the company on operations, policies or practices.

On December 8, 2024, Omnicom agreed to merge with The Interpublic Group of Companies (IPG) in a deal where IPG survives as a wholly owned Omnicom subsidiary. Each share of IPG common stock would convert into 0.344 shares of Omnicom common stock, with cash paid for fractional shares and certain IPG equity awards settled in cash. Completion depends on stockholder approvals from both companies, antitrust and foreign investment clearances, and other conditions, so IPG and Omnicom shareholders face a deal that is not yet final.
