Publicis Signals Confidence on Outlook but AI Debate Isn't Settled

Dow Jones07-17 22:28

1428 GMT - Publicis Groupe's recent business wins help clarify its outlook for next year, but the debate on the impact of artificial intelligence isn't settled yet, Bernstein analysts say in a research note. The French advertising group won account wins in the first half that should boost its organic net revenue growth by half a percentage point this year and by one-and-a-half percentage points next, the analysts say. This brings a forward visibility historically not seen in the sector, they add. "[Mid-single-digit percentage] growth allows to re-invest in talent and skills, lending credence to the company objective to extend current trends beyond 2026," Bernstein says. The AI debate isn't settled, but Publicis' recent stock performance suggests risks might be sufficiently priced in, the analysts say. Shares fall 3.5%. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)
