Publicis acquisitions boost growth

Last year’s acquisition activity and favourable currency movements enabled Publicis Groupe to announce revenue growth of 14.3% and a post-tax profit improvement of 19% for the half year to 30 June.

Without the currency benefit, revenue growth would have been 9.1%.  And if both the currency benefit and acquisitions were to be excluded, revenue growth would have been 2.8%.
