      NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Omnicom Group Inc. (NYSE: OMC) today announced that its diluted net income per share for the third quarter of 2019 was $1.32 per share, unchanged compared to the third quarter of 2018.

      Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the third quarter of 2019 was $290.2 million compared to $298.9 million in the third quarter of 2018. Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. in the third quarter of 2018 includes a net after tax increase of $18.2 million as a result of a net gain on dispositions of certain subsidiaries, less charges in connection with repositioning actions and an increase to income tax expense for adjustments related to the 2017 provisional amounts for the effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "2017 Tax Act"), as discussed further below. Excluding these items from 2018, net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the third quarter of 2019 would have increased $9.5 million, or 3.4%, and diluted net income per share would have increased eight cents per share, or 6.5%.

      Primarily due to the negative effects of foreign exchange rates and disposition activity in excess of acquisitions over the past year, Omnicom's worldwide revenue in the third quarter of 2019 decreased 2.4% to $3,623.8 million from $3,714.3 million in the third quarter of 2018. The components of the change in revenue included a decrease in revenue from the negative impact of foreign currency translation of 1.5%, a decrease in acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue of 3.1% and an increase in revenue from organic growth of 2.2% when compared to the third quarter of 2018.

      Organic growth in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the third quarter of 2018 in our five fundamental disciplines was as follows: Advertising increased 3.4%, CRM Consumer Experience increased 1.8%, CRM Execution & Support decreased 1.5%, Public Relations decreased 3.8% and Healthcare increased 9.5%.

      Across our regional markets, organic growth in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the third quarter of 2018 was: 2.7% in the United States, 2.7% for Other North America, 3.0% in the United Kingdom, 1.6% for the Euro Markets and Other Europe, 0.4% for Asia Pacific and 6.6% for Latin America while the Middle East and Africa decreased 4.5%.

      Operating profit in the third quarter of 2019 was $473.3 million, and our operating margin was 13.1%. Operating profit in the third quarter of 2018 reflects a net pre-tax increase of $29.0 million from the net gain on dispositions of certain subsidiaries of $178.4 million, which arose primarily from the sale of Sellbytel, our European-based outsourced sales, service and support business, less expenses of $149.4 million in connection with repositioning actions related to the continuing improvement of the strategic position and operating efficiencies of our businesses.

      Excluding the impact of those items, operating profit in the third quarter of 2019 was flat when compared to the third quarter of 2018, while operating margin for the third quarter of 2019 increased to 13.1% when compared to 12.7% for the third quarter of 2018.

      For the third quarter of 2019, our effective income tax rate was 26.5% compared to 25.9% for the same period in 2018. The lower tax rate for the third quarter of 2018 reflected the impacts of a lower tax rate on the net gain on dispositions of subsidiaries discussed above, substantially offset by an increase in tax expense reflecting adjustment to the provisional amounts related to the 2017 Tax Act.

      Year-to-Date

      Diluted net income per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased eleven cents, or 2.7%, to $4.17 per share compared to $4.06 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

      Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $924.1 million compared to $927.2 million in the same period in 2018. Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 includes a net after tax increase of $18.2 million as a result of a net gain on dispositions of certain subsidiaries, less charges taken in the third quarter in connection with repositioning actions and an increase to income tax expense for adjustments related to the 2017 provisional amounts for the effect of the 2017 Tax Act, as discussed above. Excluding these items from 2018, net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 would have increased $15.1 million and diluted net income per share would have increased nineteen cents per share, or 4.8%.

      Primarily due to the negative effects of foreign exchange rates and disposition activity in excess of acquisitions over the past year, worldwide revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased 3.5% to $10,812.5 million from $11,203.5 million in the same period of 2018. The components of the change in revenue included a decrease in revenue from the negative impact of foreign currency translation of 2.5%, a decrease in acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue of 3.5% and an increase in revenue from organic growth of 2.5% when compared to the same period of 2018.

      Organic growth for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 in our five fundamental disciplines was as follows: Advertising increased 4.3%, CRM Consumer Experience increased 1.0%, CRM Execution & Support decreased 2.4%, Public Relations decreased 1.9% and Healthcare increased 8.3%.

      Across our regional markets, organic growth for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period of 2018 was 2.6% in the United States, 6.9% for Other North America, 3.3% in the United Kingdom, 2.4% in the Euro Markets and Other Europe, 1.4% in Asia Pacific, 0.2% for Latin America and 0.4% for the Middle East and Africa.

      Operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $1,475.9 million and our operating margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 13.6%. Operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflects a net pre-tax increase of $29.0 million from the net gain on dispositions of certain subsidiaries less expenses incurred in connection with repositioning actions taken in the third quarter of 2018, as discussed above. Excluding the impact of those items, operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was effectively flat when compared to the same period in 2018, while operating margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased to 13.6% versus 13.2% for the same period of 2018.

      For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our effective income tax rate was 26.0% compared to 25.4% for the same period in 2018. The effective tax rate for the nine months of 2018 reflects the impact of a lower tax rate on the net gain on dispositions of subsidiaries in the third quarter of 2018, substantially offset by an increase in tax expense reflecting adjustment to the provisional amounts related to the 2017 Tax Act.

      Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      We use certain non-GAAP financial measures in describing our performance. Non-GAAP 2018 Adjusted results, which exclude the net gain related to the impact of dispositions of certain subsidiaries and repositioning actions taken in the third quarter of 2018, are presented in the third quarter and year-to-date results presented above and in the tables in this release. We believe that the Non-GAAP 2018 Adjusted results are useful measures for investors to understand the impact these actions had on our reported results.

      Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.

      Definitions - Components of Revenue Change

      We use certain terms in describing the components of the change in revenue above.

      Foreign exchange rate impact: calculated by translating the current period's local currency revenue using the prior period average exchange rates to derive current period constant currency revenue. The foreign exchange rate impact is the difference between the current period revenue in U.S. Dollars and the current period constant currency revenue.

      Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue: Acquisition revenue is calculated as if the acquisition occurred twelve months prior to the acquisition date by aggregating the comparable prior period revenue of acquisitions through the acquisition date. As a result, acquisition revenue excludes the positive or negative difference between our current period revenue subsequent to the acquisition date and the comparable prior period revenue and the positive or negative growth after the acquisition date is attributed to organic growth. Disposition revenue is calculated as if the disposition occurred twelve months prior to the disposition date by aggregating the comparable prior period revenue of disposals through the disposition date. The acquisition revenue and disposition revenue amounts are netted in the description above.

      Organic growth: calculated by subtracting the foreign exchange rate impact component and the acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue component from total revenue growth.
