Business Description

Merger with IPG On November 26, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Omnicom completed its Merger with IPG (the “Merger”). As previously reported, on December 8, 2024, Omnicom entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with IPG and EXT Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Omnicom (“Merger Sub”). On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into IPG, with IPG continuing as the surviving corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Omnicom. Upon the Merger, each outstanding share of IPG common stock (other than certain excluded shares) converted into the right to receive 0.344 shares of Omnicom common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares. Following the closing of the Merger, legacy Omnicom shareholders owned approximately 60.6% of the combined company and legacy IPG shareholders owned approximately 39.4%, on a fully diluted basis (see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements). Omnicom’s common stock continues to trade on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol “OMC,” and IPG’s common stock has ceased trading. The Merger qualified as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the combined company operates under the Omnicom name with headquarters in New York, New York. Omnicom is the acquirer of IPG under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP), and as a result, the consolidated financial statements of Omnicom for periods prior to the Closing Date do not include the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of IPG. The results of operations of IPG are included in Omnicom’s consolidated financial statements only from the Closing Date forward. Accordingly, Omnicom’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows after the Closing Date are not comparable to prior periods due to the inclusion of IPG’s results from the Closing Date (see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements). IPG Senior Notes Exchange Offers In connection with the Merger, Omnicom commenced offers to exchange all outstanding notes of certain series issued by IPG for up to $2.95 billion in aggregate principal amount of new notes issued by Omnicom. As a result of these exchange offers, which were completed on December 2, 2025, approximately 94% of IPG's outstanding senior notes were exchanged for $2.76 billion in aggregate principal amount of new notes issued by Omnicom. The remaining approximately 6% of IPG's senior notes that were not tendered for exchange by holders remain outstanding obligations of IPG, a wholly owned subsidiary of Omnicom (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements).
