"We are extremely pleased with our performance this quarter and year-to-date. We continue to deliver notably strong growth in the U.S. and in many international regions. These results were driven by strong top- and bottom-line performance in media, as well as growth from our three global creative networks, our marketing services agencies and our digital offerings. Our agency brands and our talent across the portfolio remain among the best in their respective disciplines, which gives us confidence in the long-term competitiveness of our offerings and our client-centric service model," said Michael I. Roth, Interpublic's Chairman and CEO.

"With the completion of the Acxiom acquisition, we have a strengthened position to help clients succeed in a world where data-driven marketing solutions are increasingly core to brands' success. We also feel that we remain positioned to achieve our previously stated goal of net revenue organic growth of 4.0% to 4.5% and margin expansion of 60 to 70 basis points. Combined with our commitment to deleverage our balance sheet and our strong history of capital return programs, including dividend increases, this will allow us to further enhance shareholder value," concluded Michael Roth.
