(Amounts in tables in millions, except per share data or unless otherwise noted)

1. Presentation of Financial Statements

The terms “Omnicom,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” each refer to Omnicom Group Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP or GAAP, for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the information contained herein. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, or 2022 10-K. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year.

Risks and Uncertainties

Current global economic challenges, including the impact of the ongoing war in Ukraine, high and persistent inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain disruptions, credit market deterioration, and other macroeconomic factors, could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The impact of these issues on our business will vary by geographic market and discipline. We monitor economic conditions closely, as well as client revenue levels and other factors. In response to reductions in revenue, we can take actions to align our cost structure with changes in client demand and manage our working capital. However, there can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate any impact of the current and future adverse economic conditions, reductions in client revenue, changes in client creditworthiness and other developments.

2. Revenue

We provide an extensive range of advertising, marketing and corporate communications services through various client-centric networks that are organized to meet specific client objectives. Our networks, practice areas and agencies provide a comprehensive range of services in the following fundamental disciplines: Advertising & Media, Precision Marketing, Commerce & Branding, Experiential, Execution & Support, Public Relations and Healthcare. Advertising & Media includes creative services across digital and traditional media, strategic media planning and buying, performance media and data analytics services. Precision Marketing includes digital and direct marketing, digital transformation consulting and data and analytics. Commerce & Branding services include brand and product consulting, strategy and research, retail and ecommerce. Experiential marketing services include live and digital events and experience design and execution.

Public Relations services include corporate communications, crisis management, public affairs and media and media relations services.

At the core of all our services is the ability to create or develop a client’s marketing or corporate communications message into content that can be delivered to a target audience across different communications mediums.

We completed our annual goodwill impairment test as of May 1, 2023. The market assumptions used in our assessment reflected the current economic environment (see Note 1- Risks and Uncertainties). Based on the results of our impairment test, we concluded that as of May 1, 2023 our goodwill was not impaired. In 2023, to better align with our internal financial processes, the date of our annual impairment test was changed from June 30 to May 1.

5. Debt

Credit Facilities

In June 2023, we amended our existing $2.5 billion unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, to, among other things, extend the termination date of the Credit Facility to June 2, 2028 and transition the benchmark rate for U.S. Dollar denominated loans from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR. We have the ability to issue up to $2 billion of U.S. Dollar denominated commercial paper and issue up to the equivalent of $500 million in British Pounds or Euro under a Euro commercial paper program. In the third quarter of 2023, we issued commercial paper with a maximum amount outstanding of $60 million. At September 30, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, and no outstanding commercial paper issuances. In addition, certain of our international subsidiaries have uncommitted credit lines aggregating $576.0 million, that are guaranteed by Omnicom. All these credit facilities provide additional liquidity sources for operating capital and general corporate purposes.

The Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this covenant as our Leverage Ratio was 2.4 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.

Short-Term Debt

Short-term debt of $14.5 million and $16.9 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively,     represented bank overdrafts and short-term borrowings primarily of our international subsidiaries. Due to the short-term nature of this debt, carrying value approximates fair value.

The finance companies’ assets consist of cash and cash equivalents and intercompany loans that they make or have made to the operating companies in their respective regions and the related interest receivable. There are no restrictions on the ability of Omnicom or OCH to obtain funds from their subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. The Sterling Notes and the related guarantee are senior unsecured obligations that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of OCH and Omnicom, respectively.

6. Segment Reporting

Our branded agency networks operate in the advertising, marketing and corporate communications services industry, and are organized into agency networks, virtual client networks, regional reporting units and operating groups or practice areas. Our networks, virtual client networks and agencies increasingly share clients and provide clients with integrated services. The main economic components of each agency are employee compensation and related costs, direct service costs and occupancy and other costs, which include rent and occupancy costs, technology costs and other overhead expenses. Therefore, given these similarities, we aggregate our six operating segments, which are our agency networks, into one reporting segment.

9

The agency networks' regional reporting units comprise three regions: the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific. The regional reporting units monitor the performance of and are responsible for the agencies in their region. Agencies within the regional reporting units serve similar clients in similar industries and, in many cases, the same clients, and have similar economic characteristics.

Long-lived assets and goodwill	$	7,753.2	$	3,039.2	$	724.2

7. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased period-over-period to 26.3% from 28.8%. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 includes an increase of $10.7 million in income tax expense related to a lower tax benefit in certain jurisdictions for the real estate and other repositioning costs and an increase in the U.K. statutory tax rate, partially offset by $10.0 million of previously unrecognized tax benefits. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was predominantly due to the non-deductibility of the $113.4 million of charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022, arising from the effects of the war in Ukraine, as well as an additional increase in income tax expense of $4.8 million related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or IRA, levies a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. The excise tax is recorded as part of the cost of acquiring treasury stock and is not material. Additionally, the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, or CAMT, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The CAMT is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

Various foreign jurisdictions are in the process of enacting legislation to adopt a minimum effective tax rate described in the Global Anti-Base Erosion, GloBE or Pillar Two, model rules issued by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. A minimum effective tax rate of 15% would apply to multinational companies with consolidated revenue above €750 million. Currently, Japan, South Korea and the United Kingdom have enacted legislation effective beginning in 2024 that is consistent with the GloBE rules. Other countries are expected to adopt GloBE rules within the next year.

Under the GloBE rules, a company would be required to determine a combined effective tax rate for all entities located in a jurisdiction. If the jurisdictional effective tax rate is less than 15%, a top-up tax generally will be due to bring the jurisdictional effective tax rate up to 15%.

At September 30, 2023, our unrecognized tax benefits were $159.8 million. Of this amount, approximately $154.1 million would affect our effective tax rate upon resolution of the uncertain tax positions.

8. Pension and Other Postemployment Benefits

9. Real Estate and Other Repositioning Costs

In connection with the transition to a flexible working environment, a hybrid model which allows for partial remote work, we took certain actions in the first quarter of 2023 to reduce and reposition our office lease portfolio. In the second quarter of 2023, as a result of our continuing efforts to increase efficiencies and relevant skill sets to meet client demands, we incurred severance charges and other exit costs associated with rebalancing our workforce and consolidating operations in certain markets.

As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, operating expenses included $191.5 million ($145.5 million after tax), primarily related to non-cash impairment charges for the operating lease right-of-use, or ROU, assets, severance charges, and other exit costs. There were no real estate and other repositioning charges during the three months ended September 30, 2023. All severance and other costs will be paid in less than one year. Substantially all of the operating lease payments related to the ROU assets will be paid out over three years.

10. Disposition of Subsidiaries

In April 2023, we disposed of certain research businesses included in our Execution & Support discipline. As a result, we recorded a pretax gain of $78.8 million. The disposition will not have a material impact on our ongoing results of operations or financial position.

11. Charges Arising from the Effects of the War in Ukraine

In 2022, we disposed of our businesses in Russia. In the first quarter of 2022, we recorded pretax charges of $113.4 million, which included cash charges of $47.6 million and primarily consisted of the loss on the disposition of our net investment in our Russian businesses and included charges related to the suspension of operations in Ukraine. All of the charges related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia had been paid as of December 31, 2022, and substantially all of our commitments related to the suspension of operations in Ukraine have been paid.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, including our critical accounting estimates, and the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report, should be read in conjunction with our 2022 10-K. The amounts shown in the following tables are in millions, except share and per share data or unless otherwise noted.

Given our size and breadth, we manage our business by monitoring several financial indicators. The key performance indicators we focus on are revenue growth, operating income, and EBITA (defined as earnings before interest, taxes and amortization of intangible assets) and EBITA margin (defined as EBITA divided by revenue). We analyze revenue growth by reviewing the components and mix of the growth, including growth by regional market, practice area and marketing discipline, the impact from foreign currency exchange rate changes, growth from acquisitions, net of dispositions, and growth from our largest clients. Variability in operating expenses is analyzed in the following categories: cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, and depreciation and amortization.

Financial Performance

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased $134.7 million, or 3.9%, to $3,578.1 million, compared to $3,443.4 million in the prior year quarter. Organic revenue growth (defined below) was $113.1 million, or 3.3%, primarily

14

reflecting increased client spending in most of our disciplines and geographic markets compared to the prior year period. Changes in foreign exchange rates period-over-period increased revenue $59.1 million, or 1.7%, primarily due to the strengthening of the Euro and British Pound against the U.S. Dollar. Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, reduced revenue $37.5 million, or 1.1%. The reduction from acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, primarily reflects dispositions in the Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023, partially offset by acquisitions in the third quarter of 2023 in the Advertising & Media and the Public Relations disciplines.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased $210.4 million, or 2.0%, to $10,631.3 million, compared to $10,420.9 million in the prior year period. Organic revenue growth was $413.2 million, or 4.0%, primarily reflecting increased client spending in most of our disciplines and across all of our major geographic markets compared to the prior year period. Changes in foreign exchange rates reduced revenue $75.3 million, or 0.7%, primarily due to the weakening of the Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, British Pound, Renminbi, and Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar, partially offset by the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar, compared to the prior nine-month period. Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, reduced revenue $127.5 million, or 1.2%, compared to the prior nine-month period. The reduction from acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, primarily reflects dispositions in the Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023 and the disposition of our businesses in Russia in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by acquisitions in the Precision Marketing discipline in the first quarter of 2022 and our acquisition activity in the current quarterly period.

The change in revenue period-over-period for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was: Advertising & Media increased $144.3 million, Precision Marketing increased $20.4 million, Commerce & Branding decreased $0.3 million, Experiential increased $12.7 million, Execution & Support decreased $55.9 million, Public Relations decreased $0.6 million, and Healthcare increased $14.1 million.

The change in revenue period-over-period for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was: Advertising & Media increased $227.7 million, Precision Marketing increased $46.3 million, Commerce & Branding increased $1.4 million, Experiential increased $33.2 million, Execution & Support decreased $138.0 million, Public Relations increased $12.1 million, and Healthcare increased $27.7 million.

The change in revenue period-over-period across our geographic markets for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was: North America increased $14.2 million, or 0.7%, Latin America increased $22.1 million, or 28.6%, Europe increased $108.6 million, or 12.0%, the Middle East and Africa decreased $10.4 million, or 16.8%, and Asia-Pacific remained flat.

The change in revenue period-over-period across our geographic markets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was: North America increased $111.3 million, or 1.9%, Latin America increased $33.1 million, or 14.7%, Europe increased $89.2 million, or 3.0%, the Middle East and Africa decreased $9.7 million, or 4.6%, and Asia-Pacific decreased $13.5 million, or 1.1%.

2) For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, operating expenses included real estate operating lease impairment charges, severance, and other exit costs related to repositioning actions we took in the first and second quarters of 2023 to reduce our real estate requirements, rebalance our workforce, and consolidate operations in certain markets. In addition, in the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a gain on disposition of certain of our research businesses in the Execution & Support discipline. There was no impact to Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from this disposition. The net aggregate impact to Operating Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a reduction of $112.7 million ($89.6 million after tax). The net aggregate effect of these items in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. was a decrease of $0.44 (see Notes 9 and 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements).

3) For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, operating expenses included $113.4 million of charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022 as well as an additional net income tax charge of $4.8 million related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia, which reduced net income -

Omnicom Group Inc. by $118.2 million and diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. by $0.57 (see Note 11 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements).

Our Business

Omnicom is a strategic holding company providing advertising, marketing, and corporate communications services to many of the largest global companies. Our portfolio of companies includes our global networks, BBDO, DDB, TBWA, Omnicom Media

Group, the DAS Group of Companies, and the Communications Consultancy Network. All of our global networks integrate their service offerings with the Omnicom branded practice areas, including the Omnicom Health Group, the Omnicom Precision Marketing Group, the Omnicom Commerce Group, the Omnicom Advertising Collective, the Omnicom Public Relations Group, and the Omnicom Brand Consulting Group, as well as our Experiential businesses and Execution & Support businesses, which includes the Omnicom Specialty Marketing Group.

On a global, pan-regional, and local basis, our networks, practice areas, and agencies provide a comprehensive range of services in the following fundamental disciplines: Advertising & Media, Precision Marketing, Commerce & Branding, Experiential, Execution & Support, Public Relations, and Healthcare. Advertising & Media includes creative services across digital and traditional media, strategic media planning and buying, performance media, and data analytics services. Precision Marketing includes digital and direct marketing, digital transformation consulting and data and analytics. Commerce & Branding services include brand and product consulting, strategy and research, retail, and ecommerce. Experiential marketing services include live and digital events and experience design and execution. Execution & Support includes field marketing, digital and physical merchandising, point-of-sale, product placement, as well as other specialized marketing and custom communications services. Public Relations services include corporate communications, crisis management, public affairs, and media and media relations services. Healthcare includes corporate communications and advertising and media services to global healthcare and pharmaceutical companies. Our geographic markets include the Americas, which includes North America and Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific.

Our business model was built and continues to evolve around our clients. While our networks, practice areas, and agencies operate under different names and frame their ideas in different disciplines, we organize our services around our clients. Our fundamental business principle is that our clients’ specific marketing requirements are the central focus of how we structure our service offerings and allocate our resources. This client-centric business model requires multiple agencies within Omnicom to collaborate in formal and informal virtual client networks utilizing our key client matrix organization structure. This collaboration allows us to cut across our internal organizational structures to execute our clients’ marketing requirements consistently and comprehensively. We use our client-centric approach to grow our business by expanding our service offerings to existing clients, moving into new markets, and obtaining new clients. In addition, we pursue selective acquisitions of complementary companies with strong entrepreneurial management teams that currently serve or could serve our existing clients. In addition to collaborating through our client service models, our agencies and networks collaborate across internally developed technology platforms. Annalect and Omni, our proprietary data and analytics platforms, are the strategic resource for all our agencies and networks to share when developing client service strategies across our virtual networks. These platforms provide precision marketing and insights at scale across creative, media, and other disciplines.

We believe generative AI will have a significant effect on how we provide services to our clients and how we enhance the productivity of our people. As with any new technology, we are working closely with our clients and technology partners to take advantage of the benefits while being mindful of its limitations and risks, and privacy concerns. We are committed to responsible AI practices and collaboration to harness AI's potential while evaluating related challenges, such as ethical considerations, intellectual property protection, regulatory compliance, and data security. While risks related to AI include these challenges and evolving regulations, public perception, and our ability to effectively adopt this new emerging technology, the rapidly developing nature of this technology makes it difficult to assess the impact in full at this time.

As a leading global advertising, marketing and corporate communications company, we operate in all major markets and have a large and diverse client base. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2023, our largest client accounted for 3.0% of our revenue, and our 100 largest clients, which represent many of the world's major marketers, accounted for approximately 54.4% of our revenue. Our clients operate in virtually every sector of the global economy with no one industry representing more than 17% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Although our revenue is generally balanced between the United States and international markets, and we have a large and diverse client base, we are not immune to general economic downturns.

Risks and Uncertainties

Current global economic challenges, including the impact of the ongoing war in Ukraine, high and persistent inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain disruptions, credit market deterioration, and other macroeconomic factors, could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The impact of these issues on our business will vary by geographic market and discipline. We closely monitor economic conditions, client revenue levels and other factors. In response to reductions in revenue, we can take actions to align our cost structure with changes in client demand and manage our working capital. However, there can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate any impact of the current and future adverse economic conditions, reductions in client revenue, changes in client creditworthiness, and other developments. Revenue is typically lower in the first and third quarters and

16

higher in the second and fourth quarters, reflecting client spending patterns during the year and additional project work that usually occurs in the fourth quarter. Certain global events targeted by major marketers for advertising expenditures, such as the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics, and certain national events, such as the U.S. election process, may affect our revenue period-over-period in certain businesses. Typically, these events do not have a significant impact on our revenue in any period.

1) For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, operating expenses included real estate operating lease impairment charges, severance, and other exit costs related to repositioning actions we took in the first and second quarters of 2023 to reduce our real estate requirements, rebalance our workforce, and consolidate operations in certain markets. In addition, in the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a gain on disposition of certain of our research businesses in the Execution & Support discipline. There was no impact to Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from this disposition. The net aggregate impact to Operating Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a reduction of $112.7 million ($89.6 million after tax).

Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue	(127.5)		(1.2)	%	(64.3)		(1.2)	%	(63.2)		(1.3)	%

Nine months ended September 30, 2023	$	10,631.3	2.0	%	$	5,531.6	2.1	%	$	5,099.7	1.9	%

The components and percentages are calculated as follows:

•Foreign exchange rate impact is calculated by translating the current period’s local currency revenue using the prior period average exchange rates to derive current period constant currency revenue (in this case $3,519.0 million and $10,706.6 million for the Total column for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively). The foreign exchange impact is the difference between the current period revenue in U.S. Dollars and the current period constant currency revenue ($3,578.1 million less $3,519.0 million and $10,631.3 million less $10,706.6 million for the Total column for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively).

•Acquisition revenue is calculated as if the acquisition occurred twelve months prior to the acquisition date by aggregating the comparable prior period revenue of acquisitions through the acquisition date. As a result, acquisition revenue excludes the positive or negative difference between our current period revenue subsequent to the acquisition date and the comparable prior period revenue and the positive or negative growth after the acquisition is attributed to organic growth. Disposition revenue is calculated as if the disposition occurred twelve months prior to the disposition date by aggregating the comparable prior period revenue of dispositions through the disposition date. The acquisition revenue and disposition revenue amounts are netted in the table.

•Organic growth is calculated by subtracting the foreign exchange rate impact, and the acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue components from total revenue growth.

•The percentage change is calculated by dividing the individual component amount by the prior period revenue base of that component ($3,443.4 million and $10,420.9 million for the Total column for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively).

Changes in the value of foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar affect our results of operations and financial position. For the most part, because the revenue and expense of our foreign operations are both denominated in the same local currency, the economic impact on operating margin is minimized. Assuming exchange rates at October 13, 2023 remain unchanged, we expect the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates will increase revenue by 0.5% in the fourth quarter and reduce revenue for the year by 0.5%. Based on our acquisition and disposition activity to date, we expect that the net impact will reduce revenue by 0.75% for the fourth quarter of 2023 and 1.1% for the full year.

Revenue by Discipline

To monitor the changing needs of our clients and to further expand the scope of our services to key clients, we monitor revenue across a broad range of disciplines and group them into the following categories: Advertising & Media, Precision Marketing, Commerce & Branding, Experiential, Execution & Support, Public Relations, and Healthcare.

Effective January 1, 2023, we realigned the classification of certain services primarily within our Commerce & Branding, Execution & Support, and Experiential disciplines, and prior year amounts have been reclassified.

The period-over-period change in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, in our fundamental disciplines was: Advertising & Media increased $144.3 million, Precision Marketing increased $20.4 million, Commerce & Branding decreased $0.3 million, Experiential increased $12.7 million, Execution & Support decreased $55.9 million, Public Relations decreased $0.6 million, and Healthcare increased $14.1 million. Organic revenue increased across most of our disciplines. Our revenue growth was aided by the positive impact of foreign exchange translation, partially offset by net disposition activity in 2023. The positive impact from foreign exchange translation period to period was primarily due to the Euro and British Pound strengthening against the U.S. Dollar. Dispositions, primarily of certain of our research businesses in the Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023, partially offset by acquisitions in the third quarter of 2023 in the Advertising & Media and the Public Relations disciplines, negatively impacted our revenue compared to the third quarter of the prior year.

The period-over-period change in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, in our fundamental disciplines was: Advertising & Media increased $227.7 million, Precision Marketing increased $46.3 million, Commerce & Branding increased $1.4 million, Experiential increased $33.2 million, Execution & Support decreased $138.0 million, Public Relations increased $12.1 million, and Healthcare increased $27.7 million. Organic revenue increased across substantially all our disciplines. The impact of foreign exchange translation slightly reduced our revenue, and dispositions, primarily of certain of our research businesses in the Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023, reduced our revenue compared to the prior year period. The decrease in revenue from foreign exchange translation was primarily related to the weakening of substantially all currencies against the U.S. Dollar, except the Euro which strengthened against the U.S. Dollar and partially offset the decrease.

In the normal course of business, our agencies both gain and lose business from clients each year due to a variety of factors. Under our client-centric approach, we seek to broaden our relationships with all of our clients. Our largest client represented 3.0% and 2.6% of revenue for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our ten largest and 100 largest clients represented 20.4% and 54.4% of revenue for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and 19.4% and 52.6% of revenue for the twelve months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The period-over-period change in revenue across our geographic markets for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was: North America increased $14.2 million, or 0.7%, Latin America increased $22.1 million, or 28.6%, Europe increased $108.6 million, or 12.0%, the Middle East and Africa decreased $10.4 million, or 16.8%, and Asia-Pacific remained flat. Organic revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased across most countries within our major markets.

The period-over-period change in revenue across our geographic markets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was: North America increased $111.3 million, or 1.9%, Latin America increased $33.1 million, or 14.7%, Europe increased $89.2 million, or 3.0%, the Middle East and Africa decreased $9.7 million, or 4.6%, and Asia-Pacific decreased $13.5 million, or 1.1%. Organic revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased across most countries within our major markets.

In North America for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period, increased organic revenue was driven primarily by strong performance in the United States, especially in the Advertising & Media discipline, led by our media business, and our Precision Marketing and Healthcare disciplines, partially offset by negative performance in our Public Relations, Commerce & Branding, and Execution & Support disciplines, which faced difficult comparisons to the prior year. Dispositions in the Execution & Support discipline in the United States in the first and second quarters of 2023, partially offset by acquisitions in the third quarter of 2023 in the Advertising & Media and the Public Relations disciplines, also reduced revenue in the region period to period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period, increased organic revenue was driven primarily by strong performance in the United States across most of our disciplines and was partially offset by the weakening of the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar and dispositions in our Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023, partially offset by acquisitions in the third quarter of 2023 in the Advertising & Media and the Public Relations disciplines.

In Latin America compared to the prior year periods, organic revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased in substantially all our disciplines, led by Advertising & Media, and in substantially all countries in the region. The strengthening of most currencies, especially the Mexican Peso and Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar, increased revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022.

In Europe compared to the prior year periods, organic revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased across most countries of our major markets and in substantially all disciplines, especially Advertising & Media, led by our media business, and in our Experiential discipline. Foreign currency changes increased revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the strengthening of the Euro and British Pound against the U.S. Dollar period to

20

period. The impact to revenue from foreign currency changes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was essentially flat as the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar was offset by the weakening of the British Pound against the U.S. Dollar. Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, decreased revenue in the nine-month period compared to the prior year due to the disposition of our businesses in Russia in the first quarter of 2022. In the U.K., organic revenue growth for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of 4.4% and 4.3%, respectively, was led by our Advertising & Media and Commerce & Branding disciplines, as well as the Healthcare discipline, in particular in the three months ended September 30, 2023. In Continental Europe, which includes the Euro Zone and the other European countries, organic growth in substantially all disciplines for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 2022 of 5.7% and 4.5%, respectively, was led by France, Germany, and Italy.

In the Middle East and Africa for the three months ended September 30, 2023, organic revenue decreased period-over-period, primarily as a result of our Advertising & Media and Experiential disciplines, which faced difficult comparisons in the region. For the nine-month period compared to the prior year period, organic revenue increased, led by our Advertising & Media discipline. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the weakening of certain currencies in the region against the U.S. Dollar decreased revenue period-over-period.

In Asia-Pacific, organic revenue increased period-over-period for the three months ended September 30, 2023, led by our Experiential discipline. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, substantially all disciplines had organic growth. Most major markets in the region, especially China, India, Malaysia, and Japan, had positive organic growth period to period. The organic growth in the region was partially offset by an underperformance in Australia and New Zealand and the weakening of certain foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar, especially the Australian Dollar, Renminbi, Japanese Yen, and New Zealand Dollar.

We measure cost of services in two distinct categories: salary and service costs and occupancy and other costs. As a service business, salary and service costs make up the significant portion of our operating expenses and substantially all these costs comprise the essential components directly linked to the delivery of our services. Salary and service costs include employee compensation and benefits, freelance labor, third-party service costs, and third-party incidental costs. Third-party service costs include vendor costs when we act as principal in providing services to our clients, and third-party incidental costs, which primarily consist of client-related travel and incidental out-of-pocket costs, which we bill back to the client directly at our cost and which we are required to include in revenue. Occupancy and other costs consist of the indirect costs related to the delivery of our services, including office rent and other occupancy costs, equipment rent, technology costs, general office expenses and other expenses. Adverse and beneficial fluctuations in foreign currencies from period to period impact our results of operations and financial position when we translate our financial statements from local foreign currencies to the U.S. Dollar. However, substantially all of our foreign operations transact business in their local currency, mitigating the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our operating margin percentage.

22

Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year periods increased 4.1% to $3,017.3 million from $2,897.4 million and increased 2.1% to $9,173.3 million from $8,980.3 million, respectively. Included in operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is the net impact of the gain on disposition of subsidiary in our Execution & Support discipline of $78.8 million and repositioning costs of related to real estate and other exit charges and severance costs of $191.5 million (see Notes 9 and 10 to the unaudited financial statements).

The changes in our operating expenses period-over-period from foreign currency translation were in line with the percentage impact from changes in foreign currencies on revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023.

Operating Expenses - Salary and Service Costs

Salary and service costs, which tend to fluctuate with changes in revenue, are comprised of salary and related costs, third-party service costs, and third-party incidental costs. Salary and service costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period increased $110.4 million, or 4.5%, to $2,586.5 million and increased $213.3 million, or 2.8%, to $7,747.2 million, respectively. Salary and related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $7.6 million, or 0.4%, to $1,756.7 million and decreased $37.8 million, or 0.7%, to $5,306.7 million, respectively. Headcount increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of organic growth and our acquisitions primarily in the third quarter of 2023; the increase was offset by the dispositions in our Execution & Support discipline in the first and second quarters of 2023, as well as the effects of foreign currency changes compared to the prior year period. Third-party service costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $90.6 million, or 15.4%, to $678.8 million and increased $234.9 million, or 13.1%, to $2,033.9 million, and were less impacted by the effects of our dispositions. Third-party incidental costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased $12.2 million, or 8.8%, to $151.0 million and increased $16.2 million, or 4.1%, to $406.6 million, respectively.

Operating Expenses - Occupancy and Other Costs

Occupancy and other costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, which are less directly linked to changes in revenue than salary and service costs, increased by $7.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively. Increased occupancy costs were substantially offset by lower rent expense in the periods.

In connection with the transition to a flexible working environment, a hybrid model which allows for partial remote work, we took certain actions in the first quarter of 2023 to reduce and reposition our office lease portfolio and recorded a charge of $119.2 million, which included an $80.4 million non-cash impairment charge for the operating lease right-of-use, or ROU, assets, $20.0 million for the write-off of the net book value of leasehold improvements at the affected locations, and $18.8 million of other lease obligations that will be paid in less than one year. Substantially all of the operating lease payments related to the ROU assets will be paid out over three years (see Note 9 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements).

Operating Expenses - Selling, General & Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses primarily consist of third-party marketing costs, professional fees, and compensation and benefits and occupancy and other costs of our corporate and executive offices, including group-wide finance and accounting, treasury, legal and governance, human resource oversight and similar costs. SG&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 2022 increased by $3.4 million primarily a result of higher professional fees in connection with the acquisition activity in the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, SG&A expenses decreased overall, period-over-period. The increase in the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily a result of higher professional fees in connection with the acquisition activity in the period.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 2022, increased $14.8 million to $560.8 million, and operating margin decreased to 15.7% from 15.9%. EBITA increased $15.0 million to $581.1 million, and EBITA margin decreased to 16.2% from 16.4%.

Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 2022, increased $17.4 million to $1,458.0 million, and operating margin decreased to 13.7% from 13.8%. EBITA increased $16.0 million to $1,516.9 million, and EBITA margin decreased to 14.3% from 14.4%. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the effect of the real estate and other repositioning cost and the gain on disposition of subsidiaries (see Notes 9 and 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements) reduced both operating income and EBITA by $112.7 million, and reduced operating margin by 1.1% and EBITA margin by 1.0%. Operating income and EBITA in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included a reduction of $113.4 million related to the war in Ukraine (see Note 11 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements), which decreased both operating margin and EBITA margin by 1.1%.

Net Interest Expense

Net interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $9.2 million period-over-period to $38.3 million. Interest expense on debt in the quarter decreased by $0.2 million period-over-period to $47.8 million. Interest income in the third

23

quarter of 2023 decreased $7.7 million period-over-period to $15.2 million, primarily due to lower cash and short term investment balances.

Net interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $27.0 million period-over-period to $85.0 million. Interest expense on debt in the first nine months increased by $7.6 million period-over-period to $149.8 million. Interest income in the first nine months of 2023 increased $38.7 million period-over-period to $80.9 million, primarily as a result of higher interest rates on cash balances and short-term investments.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased slightly period-over-period to 26.0% from 26.1%. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased period-over-period to 26.3% from 28.8%. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 includes an increase of $10.7 million in income tax expense related to a lower tax benefit in certain jurisdictions for the real estate and other repositioning costs and an increase in the U.K. statutory tax rate, partially offset by $10.0 million of previously unrecognized tax benefits. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was predominantly due to the non-deductibility of the $113.4 million of charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022, arising from the effects of the war in Ukraine, as well as an additional increase in income tax expense of $4.8 million related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or IRA, levies a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. The excise tax is recorded as part of the cost of acquiring treasury stock and is not material. Additionally, the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, or CAMT, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The CAMT is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

Various foreign jurisdictions are in the process of enacting legislation to adopt a minimum tax described in the Global Anti-Base Erosion, GloBE or Pillar Two, model rules issued by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. A minimum effective tax of 15% would apply to multinational companies with consolidated revenue above €750 million. Currently, Japan, South Korea and the United Kingdom have enacted legislation effective beginning in 2024 that is consistent with the GloBE rules. Other countries are expected to adopt GloBE rules within the next year.

Under the GloBE rules, a company would be required to determine a combined effective tax rate for all entities located in a jurisdiction. If the jurisdictional effective tax rate is less than 15%, a top-up tax generally will be due to bring the jurisdictional effective tax rate up to 15%.

The GloBE minimum tax will be accounted for as an alternative minimum tax, or AMT. As such, companies will need to consider the effects beginning in the period that includes the date the GloBE AMT is effective. Changes in tax laws in the various countries in which we operate can negatively impact our results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Net Income and Net Income Per Share - Omnicom Group, Inc.

Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. in the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $7.4 million to $371.9 million from $364.5 million. The period-over-period increase is due to the factors described above. Diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. increased to $1.86 in the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $1.77 in the three months ended September 30, 2022, due to the factors described above and the impact of the reduction in our weighted average common shares outstanding resulting from the repurchases of our common stock during the quarter, net of shares issued for stock option exercises and the employee stock purchase plan.

Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $79.0 million to $965.7 million from $886.7 million. The period-over-period increase is due to the factors described above. Diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. increased to $4.78 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $4.27 in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to the factors described above and the impact of the reduction in our weighted average common shares outstanding resulting from the repurchases of our common stock during the first half of the year, net of shares issued for stock option exercises and the employee stock purchase plan. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the net impact of the real estate repositioning costs and gain on disposition of subsidiaries reduced net income - Omnicom Group Inc. by $89.6 million and diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. by $0.44. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the impact of the after-tax charges arising from the effects of the war in Ukraine reduced net income - Omnicom Group Inc. by $118.2 million and diluted net income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. by $0.57.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures in describing our performance. We use EBITA and EBITA Margin as additional operating performance measures, which exclude the non-cash amortization expense of intangible assets (primarily consisting of amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions). We believe EBITA and EBITA Margin are useful measures for investors to evaluate the performance of our business. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Sources and Requirements

Primary sources of our short-term liquidity are our operating cash flow and cash and cash equivalents. Additional liquidity sources include our $2.5 billion unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, the ability to issue up to $2 billion of U.S. Dollar denominated commercial paper and issue up to the equivalent of $500 million in British Pounds or Euro under a Euro commercial paper program, and access to the capital markets. In June 2023, we amended the Credit Facility to, among other things, extend the termination date of the Credit Facility to June 2, 2028 and transition the benchmark rate for U.S. Dollar denominated loans from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR. In addition, certain of our international subsidiaries have uncommitted credit lines aggregating $576.0 million, that are guaranteed by Omnicom. Our liquidity sources fund our non-discretionary cash requirements and our discretionary spending.

Working capital, which we define as current assets minus current liabilities, is our principal non-discretionary funding requirement. Our working capital cycle typically peaks during the second quarter of the year due to the timing of payments for incentive compensation, income taxes and contingent purchase price obligations. In addition, we have contractual obligations related to our long-term debt (principal and interest payments), recurring business operations, primarily related to lease obligations, and acquisition related obligations. Our principal discretionary cash spending includes dividend payments to common shareholders, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and repurchases of our common stock.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1.5 billion from December 31, 2022. During the first nine months 2023, we used $379.1 million of cash in operating activities, which included the use for operating capital of $1.7 billion, primarily related to our typical working capital requirement during the period. Discretionary spending for the first nine months of 2023 was $1.3 billion, compared to $1.4 billion for the first nine months of 2022. Discretionary spending for the first nine months of 2023 is comprised of capital expenditures of $64.2 million, dividends paid to common shareholders of $424.0 million, dividends paid to shareholders of noncontrolling interests of $47.0 million, repurchases of our common stock, net of proceeds from vesting of restricted stock awards and stock option exercises and related tax benefits and common stock sold to our employee stock purchase plan of $529.8 million, and payment of contingent purchase price obligations and acquisition of additional shares of noncontrolling interests of $202.4 million. Discretionary spending was partially offset by the proceeds from disposition of subsidiary and other investing activities of $192.6 million, and proceeds from the maturity of short-term investments of $60.8 million. The impact of foreign exchange rate changes decreased cash and cash equivalents by $68.0 million.

Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents and operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet our non-discretionary cash requirements for the next twelve months. Over the longer term, our Credit Facility is available to fund our working capital and contractual obligations.

Cash Management

Our regional treasury centers in North America, Europe and Asia manage our cash and liquidity. Each day, operations with excess funds invest those funds with their regional treasury center. Likewise, operations that require funds borrow from their regional treasury center. Treasury centers with excess cash invest on a short-term basis with third parties, with maturities generally ranging from overnight to 90 days. Certain treasury centers have notional pooling arrangements that are used to manage their cash and set-off foreign exchange imbalances. The arrangements require each treasury center to have its own notional pool account and to maintain a notional positive account balance. Additionally, under the terms of the arrangement, set-off of foreign exchange positions are limited to the long and short positions within their own account. To the extent that our treasury centers require liquidity, they have the ability to issue up to a total of $2 billion of U.S. Dollar-denominated commercial paper and issue up to the equivalent of $500 million in British Pounds or Euro under a Euro commercial paper program, or borrow under the Credit Facility or the uncommitted credit lines. This process enables us to manage our debt more efficiently and utilize our cash more effectively, as well as manage our risk to foreign exchange rate imbalances. In countries where we either do not conduct treasury operations or it is not feasible for one of our treasury centers to fund net borrowing requirements on an intercompany basis, we arrange for local currency uncommitted credit lines. We have a policy governing counterparty credit risk with financial institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents, and we have deposit limits for each institution. In countries where we conduct treasury operations, generally the counterparties are either branches or subsidiaries of institutions that are party to the Credit Facility. These institutions generally have credit ratings equal to or better than our credit ratings. In countries where we do not conduct treasury operations, all cash and cash equivalents are held by counterparties that meet specific minimum credit standards.

At September 30, 2023, our foreign subsidiaries held approximately $1.4 billion of our total cash and cash equivalents of $2.8 billion. Substantially all of the cash is available to us, net of any foreign withholding taxes payable upon repatriation to the United States.

At September 30, 2023, our net debt position, which we define as total debt, including short-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, increased $1.6 billion to $2.8 billion from December 31, 2022. The increase in net debt primarily resulted from the use of cash of $379.1 million for operating activities, which included the use for operating capital of $1.7 billion, primarily related to our typical working capital requirement during the period, discretionary spending of $1.3 billion, as discussed above, and the net effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and our foreign currency denominated debt of $59.4 million, and was partially offset by the proceeds from disposition of subsidiary in the second quarter of 2023 and other investing activities of $192.6 million.

Components of net debt:

	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022		September 30, 2022
Short-term debt	$	14.5	$	16.9	$	10.2

Net debt is a Non-GAAP liquidity measure. This presentation, together with the comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measures, reflects one of the key metrics used by us to assess our cash management. Non-GAAP liquidity measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP liquidity measures as reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.

The Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this covenant as our Leverage Ratio was 2.4 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.

At September 30, 2023, our long-term and short-term debt was rated BBB+ and A2 by S&P and Baa1 and P2 by Moody's. Our access to the commercial paper market and the cost of these borrowings are affected by market conditions and our credit ratings. The long-term debt indentures and the Credit Facility do not contain provisions that require acceleration of cash payments in the event of a downgrade in our credit ratings.

Credit Markets and Availability of Credit

In light of the uncertainty of future economic conditions, we will continue to take actions available to us to respond to changing economic conditions, and we will continue to manage our discretionary expenditures. We will continue to monitor and manage the level of credit made available to our clients. We believe that these actions, in addition to the availability of our Credit Facility, are sufficient to fund our near-term working capital needs and our discretionary spending. Information regarding our Credit Facility is provided in Note 5 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

We have the ability to fund our day-to-day liquidity, including working capital, by issuing commercial paper or borrowing under the Credit Facility. For our commercial paper issuances in the third quarter of 2023, the maximum amount outstanding was $60 million, the average amount outstanding was $1.5 million, the average days outstanding was 1.0 day, and the weighted average interest rate was 5.39%. At September 30, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, and no outstanding commercial paper issuances.

We may issue commercial paper to fund our day-to-day liquidity when needed. However, disruptions in the credit markets may lead to periods of illiquidity in the commercial paper market and higher credit spreads. To mitigate any disruption in the credit markets and to fund our liquidity, we may borrow under the Credit Facility or the uncommitted credit lines or access the capital markets if favorable conditions exist. We will continue to monitor closely our liquidity and conditions in the credit markets. We cannot predict with any certainty the impact on us of any disruptions in the credit markets. In such circumstances, we may need to obtain additional financing to fund our day-to-day working capital requirements. Such additional financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.

Credit Risk

We provide advertising, marketing and corporate communications services to several thousand clients that operate in nearly every sector of the global economy, and we grant credit to qualified clients in the normal course of business. Due to the diversified nature of our client base, we do not believe that we are exposed to a concentration of credit risk as our largest client represented 3.0% of revenue for the twelve months ended September 30, 2023. However, during periods of economic downturn, the credit profiles of our clients could change.

In the normal course of business, our agencies enter into contractual commitments with media providers and production companies on behalf of our clients at levels that can substantially exceed the revenue from our services. These commitments are included in accounts payable when the services are delivered by the media providers or production companies. If permitted by local law and the client agreement, many of our agencies purchase media and production services for our clients as an agent for a disclosed principal. In addition, while operating practices vary by country, media type and media vendor, in the United States and certain foreign markets, many of our agencies’ contracts with media and production providers specify that our agencies are not

27

liable to the media and production providers under the theory of sequential liability until and to the extent we have been paid by our client for the media or production services.

Where purchases of media and production services are made by our agencies as a principal or are not subject to the theory of sequential liability, the risk of a material loss as a result of payment default by our clients could increase significantly and such a loss could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

In addition, our methods of managing the risk of payment default, including obtaining credit insurance, requiring payment in advance, mitigating the potential loss in the marketplace or negotiating with media providers, may be insufficient, less available, or unavailable during a severe economic downturn.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

For a more complete understanding of our accounting estimates and policies, the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, readers are encouraged to consider this information together with our discussion of our critical accounting policies under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Acquisitions and Goodwill

We have made and expect to continue to make selective acquisitions. The evaluation of potential acquisitions is based on various factors, including specialized know-how, reputation, geographic coverage, competitive position and service offerings of the target businesses, as well as our experience and judgment.

Our acquisition strategy is focused on acquiring the expertise of an assembled workforce in order to continue to build upon the core capabilities of our various strategic business platforms and agency brands through the expansion of their geographic reach or their service capabilities to better serve our clients. Additional key factors we consider include the competitive position and specialized know-how of the acquisition targets. Accordingly, as is typical in most service businesses, a substantial portion of the assets we acquire are intangible assets primarily consisting of the know-how of the personnel, which is treated as part of goodwill and is not required to be valued separately under U.S. GAAP. For each acquisition, we undertake a detailed review to identify other intangible assets that are required to be valued separately. A significant portion of the identifiable intangible assets acquired is derived from customer relationships, including the related customer contracts, as well as trade names. In valuing these identified intangible assets, we typically use an income approach and consider comparable market participant measurements.

In 2023, to better align with our internal financial processes, the date of our annual impairment test was changed from June 30 to May 1. We will continue to evaluate goodwill for impairment at least annually at May 1 each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Under FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, we have the option of either assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the carrying value of our reporting units exceeds their respective fair value (Step 0) or proceeding directly to the quantitative goodwill impairment test. While there were no trigger events that required us to perform a quantitative test, we performed the annual quantitative impairment test and compared the fair value of each of our reporting units to its respective carrying value, including goodwill. We identified our regional reporting units as components of our operating segments, which are our six global agency networks. The regional reporting units of each agency network are responsible for the agencies in their region. They report to the segment managers and facilitate the administrative and logistical requirements of our key client matrix organization structure for delivering services to clients in their regions. We have concluded that for each of our operating segments, their regional reporting units have similar economic characteristics and should be aggregated for purposes of testing goodwill for impairment at the operating segment level. Our conclusion was based on a detailed analysis of the aggregation criteria set forth in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, and in FASB ASC Topic 350. Consistent with our fundamental business strategy, the agencies within our regional reporting units serve similar clients in similar industries, and in many cases the same clients. In addition, the agencies within our regional reporting units have similar economic characteristics, and the employees share similar skill sets. The main economic components of each agency are employee compensation and related costs, and direct service costs and occupancy and other costs, which include rent and occupancy costs, technology costs that are generally limited to personal computers, servers and off-the-shelf software and other overhead expenses. Finally, the expected benefits of our acquisitions are typically shared by multiple agencies in various regions as they work together to integrate the acquired agency into our virtual client network strategy.

Goodwill Impairment Review - Estimates and Assumptions

We use the following valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of our reporting units: (1) the income approach, which utilizes discounted expected future cash flows, (2) comparative market participant multiples for EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and (3) when available, consideration of recent and similar acquisition transactions.

In applying the income approach, we use estimates to derive the discounted expected cash flows (“DCF”) for each reporting unit that serves as the basis of our valuation. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth and operating margin, EBITDA, tax rates, capital expenditures, weighted average cost of capital and related discount rates and expected long-term cash flow growth rates. All of these estimates and assumptions are affected by conditions specific to our businesses, economic conditions related to the industry we operate in, as well as conditions in the global economy. The assumptions that have the most

28

significant effect on our valuations derived using a DCF methodology are: (1) the expected long-term growth rate of our reporting units' cash flows and (2) the weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) for each reporting unit.

The long-term growth rate and WACC assumptions used in our evaluations:

	May 1, 2023	June 30, 2022
Long-Term Growth Rate	3.5%	3.5%
WACC	11% - 11.4%	11.1% - 12%

Long-term growth rate represents our estimate of the long-term growth rate for our industry and the geographic markets we operate in. For the past ten years, the average historical revenue growth rate of our reporting units and the Average Nominal GDP, or NGDP, growth of the countries comprising the major markets that account for substantially all of our revenue was approximately 3.5% and 4.4%, respectively. We considered this history when determining the long-term growth rates used in our annual impairment test at May 1, 2023. Included in the 10-year history is the full year 2020 that reflected the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and our revenue. We believe marketing expenditures over the long term have a high correlation to NGDP. Based on our past performance, we also believe that our growth rate can exceed NGDP growth in the short-term, notwithstanding the current inflationary environment, in the markets we operate in, which are similar across our reporting units. Accordingly, for our annual test as of May 1, 2023, we used an estimated long-term growth rate of 3.5%.

When performing the annual impairment test as of May 1, 2023 and estimating the future cash flows of our reporting units, we considered the current macroeconomic environment, as well as industry and market specific conditions in 2023. In the first half of 2023, our organic revenue increase was 4.3%, which excluded our net disposition activity and the impact from changes in foreign exchange rates.

The WACC is comprised of: (1) a risk-free rate of return, (2) a business risk index ascribed to us and to companies in our industry comparable to our reporting units based on a market derived variable that measures the volatility of the share price of equity securities relative to the volatility of the overall equity market, (3) an equity risk premium that is based on the rate of return on equity of publicly traded companies with business characteristics comparable to our reporting units, and (4) a current after-tax market rate of return on debt of companies with business characteristics similar to our reporting units, each weighted by the relative market value percentages of our equity and debt.

Our six reporting units vary in size with respect to revenue and the amount of debt allocated to them. These differences drive variations in fair value among our reporting units. In addition, these differences as well as differences in book value, including goodwill, cause variations in the amount by which fair value exceeds book value among the reporting units. The goodwill balances and debt vary by reporting unit primarily because our three legacy agency networks were acquired at the formation of Omnicom and were accounted for as a pooling of interests that did not result in any additional debt or goodwill being recorded. The remaining three agency networks were built through a combination of internal growth and acquisitions that were accounted for using the acquisition method and as a result, they have a relatively higher amount of goodwill and debt. Finally, the allocation of goodwill when components are transferred between reporting units is based on relative fair value at the time of transfer.

Goodwill Impairment Review - Conclusion

Based on the results of our impairment test, we concluded that our goodwill as of May 1, 2023 was not impaired, because the fair value of each of our reporting units was in excess of its respective net book value. For our reporting units with negative book value, we concluded that the fair value of their total assets was in excess of book value. The minimum decline in fair value that one of our reporting units would need to experience in order to fail the goodwill impairment test was approximately 53%. Notwithstanding our belief that the assumptions we used for WACC and long-term growth rate in our impairment testing were reasonable, we performed a sensitivity analysis for each reporting unit. The results of this sensitivity analysis on our impairment test as of May 1, 2023 revealed that if the WACC increased by 1% and/or the long-term growth rate decreased by 1%, the fair value of each of our reporting units would continue to be in excess of its respective net book value and would pass the impairment test.

We will continue to perform our impairment test at May 1 each year unless events or circumstances trigger the need for an interim impairment test. The estimates used in our goodwill impairment test do not constitute forecasts or projections of future results of operations, but rather are estimates and assumptions based on historical results and assessments of macroeconomic factors affecting our reporting units as of the valuation date. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, but they are subject to change from period to period. Actual results of operations and other factors will likely differ from the estimates used in our discounted cash flow valuation, and it is possible that differences could be significant. A change in the estimates we use could result in a decline in the estimated fair value of one or more of our reporting units from the amounts derived as of our latest valuation and could cause us to fail our goodwill impairment test if the estimated fair value for the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of the net assets of the reporting unit, including its goodwill. A large decline in estimated fair value of a reporting unit could result in a non-cash impairment charge and may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We manage our exposure to foreign exchange rate risk and interest rate risk through various strategies, including the use of derivative financial instruments. We use forward foreign exchange contracts as economic hedges to manage the cash flow volatility arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We use net investment hedges to manage the volatility of foreign exchange rates on the investment in our foreign subsidiaries. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Using derivatives exposes us to the credit risk that counterparties to the derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. We manage that risk through careful selection and ongoing evaluation of the counterparty financial institutions based on specific minimum credit standards and other factors. Our 2022 10-K provides a detailed discussion of the market risks affecting our operations. No material change has occurred in our market risks since the disclosure contained in our 2022 10-K. Note 14 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements provides a discussion of our foreign currency derivatives and cross currency swaps as of September 30, 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within applicable time periods. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, including our CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that decisions can be made timely with respect to required disclosures, as well as ensuring that the recording, processing, summarization and reporting of information required to be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 are appropriate.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management, with the participation of our CEO, CFO and our agencies, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2023. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements included in our 2022 10-K, has issued an attestation report on Omnicom’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, dated February 8, 2023.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings. We do not presently expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A in our 2022 10-K, except as described below.

We are subject to risks related to our use of generative AI, a new and emerging technology, which is in the early stages of commercial use.

In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into strategic partnerships with leading AI technology companies, enabling enhanced product and service capabilities in generative AI. This technology, which is a new and emerging technology in early stages of commercial use, presents a number of risks inherent in its use, including ethical considerations, public perception, intellectual property protection, regulatory compliance, privacy concerns and data security, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. As a result, we cannot predict future developments in AI and related impacts to our business and our industry. If we are unable to successfully adapt to new developments related to, and risks and challenges associated with AI, our business, results of operations and financial position could be negatively impacted.

Presentation of Financial Statements

The terms “Omnicom,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” each refer to Omnicom Group Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP or GAAP, for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the information contained herein. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, or 2022 10-K. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year.

Risks and Uncertainties

Current global economic challenges, including the impact of the ongoing war in Ukraine, high and persistent inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain disruptions, credit market deterioration, and other macroeconomic factors, could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The impact of these issues on our business will vary by geographic market and discipline. We monitor economic conditions closely, as well as client revenue levels and other factors. In response to reductions in revenue, we can take actions to align our cost structure with changes in client demand and manage our working capital. However, there can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate any impact of the current and future adverse economic conditions, reductions in client revenue, changes in client creditworthiness and other developments.

Credit Facilities

In June 2023, we amended our existing $2.5 billion unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, to, among other things, extend the termination date of the Credit Facility to June 2, 2028 and transition the benchmark rate for U.S. Dollar denominated loans from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR. We have the ability to issue up to $2 billion of U.S. Dollar denominated commercial paper and issue up to the equivalent of $500 million in British Pounds or Euro under a Euro commercial paper program. In the third quarter of 2023, we issued commercial paper with a maximum amount outstanding of $60 million. At September 30, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, and no outstanding commercial paper issuances. In addition, certain of our international subsidiaries have uncommitted credit lines aggregating $576.0 million, that are guaranteed by Omnicom. All these credit facilities provide additional liquidity sources for operating capital and general corporate purposes.

The Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this covenant as our Leverage Ratio was 2.4 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.

Short-Term Debt

Short-term debt of $14.5 million and $16.9 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively,     represented bank overdrafts and short-term borrowings primarily of our international subsidiaries. Due to the short-term nature of this debt, carrying value approximates fair value.

Our 2.45% Senior Notes due 2030, 4.20% Senior Notes due 2030 and 2.60% Senior Notes due 2031 are senior unsecured obligations of Omnicom that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

Omnicom and its wholly owned finance subsidiary, Omnicom Capital Inc., or OCI, are co-obligors under the 3.65% Senior Notes due 2024 and the 3.60% Senior Notes due 2026. These notes are a joint and several liability of Omnicom and OCI, and Omnicom unconditionally guarantees OCI’s obligations with respect to the notes. OCI provides funding for our operations by incurring debt and lending the proceeds to our operating subsidiaries.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

Segment ReportingOur branded agency networks operate in the advertising, marketing and corporate communications services industry, and are organized into agency networks, virtual client networks, regional reporting units and operating groups or practice areas. Our networks, virtual client networks and agencies increasingly share clients and provide clients with integrated services. The main economic components of each agency are employee compensation and related costs, direct service costs and occupancy and other costs, which include rent and occupancy costs, technology costs and other overhead expenses. Therefore, given these similarities, we aggregate our six operating segments, which are our agency networks, into one reporting segment.

The agency networks' regional reporting units comprise three regions: the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific. The regional reporting units monitor the performance of and are responsible for the agencies in their region. Agencies within the regional reporting units serve similar clients in similar industries and, in many cases, the same clients, and have similar economic characteristics.

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased period-over-period to 26.3% from 28.8%. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 includes an increase of $10.7 million in income tax expense related to a lower tax benefit in certain jurisdictions for the real estate and other repositioning costs and an increase in the U.K. statutory tax rate, partially offset by $10.0 million of previously unrecognized tax benefits. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was predominantly due to the non-deductibility of the $113.4 million of charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022, arising from the effects of the war in Ukraine, as well as an additional increase in income tax expense of $4.8 million related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or IRA, levies a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. The excise tax is recorded as part of the cost of acquiring treasury stock and is not material. Additionally, the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, or CAMT, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The CAMT is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

Various foreign jurisdictions are in the process of enacting legislation to adopt a minimum effective tax rate described in the Global Anti-Base Erosion, GloBE or Pillar Two, model rules issued by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. A minimum effective tax rate of 15% would apply to multinational companies with consolidated revenue above €750 million. Currently, Japan, South Korea and the United Kingdom have enacted legislation effective beginning in 2024 that is consistent with the GloBE rules. Other countries are expected to adopt GloBE rules within the next year.

Under the GloBE rules, a company would be required to determine a combined effective tax rate for all entities located in a jurisdiction. If the jurisdictional effective tax rate is less than 15%, a top-up tax generally will be due to bring the jurisdictional effective tax rate up to 15%.

At September 30, 2023, our unrecognized tax benefits were $159.8 million. Of this amount, approximately $154.1 million would affect our effective tax rate upon resolution of the uncertain tax positions.

Real Estate and Other Repositioning Costs

Real Estate and Other Repositioning Costs

In connection with the transition to a flexible working environment, a hybrid model which allows for partial remote work, we took certain actions in the first quarter of 2023 to reduce and reposition our office lease portfolio. In the second quarter of 2023, as a result of our continuing efforts to increase efficiencies and relevant skill sets to meet client demands, we incurred severance charges and other exit costs associated with rebalancing our workforce and consolidating operations in certain markets.

As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, operating expenses included $191.5 million ($145.5 million after tax), primarily related to non-cash impairment charges for the operating lease right-of-use, or ROU, assets, severance charges, and other exit costs. There were no real estate and other repositioning charges during the three months ended September 30, 2023. All severance and other costs will be paid in less than one year. Substantially all of the operating lease payments related to the ROU assets will be paid out over three years.

All of the charges related to the disposition of our businesses in Russia had been paid as of December 31, 2022, and substantially all of our commitments related to the suspension of operations in Ukraine have been paid.
