On November 26, 2025, we completed the Merger (see Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements). The acquisition combines complementary capabilities and service offerings and is expected to expand client opportunities and support long-term growth.
Purchase Consideration
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the 361,498,876 shares of IPG common stock (the “IPG common stock”) (par value $0.10 per share) that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger were converted into 124,352,188 shares of Omnicom common stock (par value $0.15 per share) and cash in lieu of fractional shares, based on an exchange ratio (the “Exchange Ratio”) of 0.344 shares of Omnicom common stock for each share of IPG common stock. 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.
The total consideration paid at closing was $8,893.5 million, consisting primarily of equity consideration of $8,891.2 million, excluding debt assumed in connection with Omnicom's offer to exchange all outstanding notes of certain series issued by IPG.
