This was comprised of an organic revenue increase of 3.7% in the U.S., driven by net new business with clients won during the year and growth with existing clients, as well as an organic revenue increase of 1.7% internationally, primarily in the Asia Pacific and Latin America regions, across our marketing disciplines.

• Net Results

◦ Full year 2013 net income available to IPG common stockholders was $259.2 million, resulting in earnings of $0.62 per basic and $0.61 per diluted share. This compares to net income available to IPG common stockholders of $435.1 million, or $1.01 per basic and $0.94 per diluted share a year ago. Excluding the impact of restructuring and related costs, and the charge for early extinguishment of the 10.00% Senior Notes due 2017 in the third quarter of 2013, diluted earnings per share was $0.78 in 2013, compared to $0.82 in 2012 excluding our Facebook transaction.

◦ Full year 2013 average diluted share count was 429.6 million shares, a decrease of 11% from full year 2012 average diluted share count of 481.4 millionshares, primarily due to the company's share repurchase program.

◦ Fourth quarter 2013 net income available to IPG common stockholders was $193.1 million, resulting in earnings of $0.45 per basic and $0.44 per diluted share. This compares to net income available to IPG common stockholders of $313.3 million, or $0.74 per basic and $0.68 per diluted share a year ago. Excluding the impact of restructuring and related costs, diluted earnings per share was $0.56 in 2013, compared to $0.56 in 2012 excluding our Facebook transaction.

"We are pleased to report a quarter of solid growth, led by outstanding U.S. performance. This brought our full year organic revenue increase to 2.8%," said Michael I. Roth, Interpublic's Chairman and CEO. "Our results in Europe

fell short of expectations, which had a major impact on overall profitability. We've taken strategic cost reductions targeted at this issue, which are reflected in a fourth quarter restructuring charge. Going forward, the strength of our agencies and our competitiveness on the new business front position us well for improved growth, so we are targeting a 3-4% organic revenue increase and 10.3% or better operating margin in 2014. We believe our cost actions and other strategic actions will result in at least a 100 basis point improvement over underlying 2013 margin performance. Furthermore, the strength of our balance sheet and our capital return programs have been significant drivers of value creation - our Board's actions to increase the dividend and share repurchase plan build on that success and demonstrate their belief in the opportunities that lie ahead for us to further enhance shareholder value."
