Arthur Sadoun · Statement from
Again, maybe in a couple of months, we will spend more time explaining to you this because the reason why we are performing as we do as a group has also to do with how we use the agentic and AI expertise of Sapient for what is 87% of our business that is growing 6.5% with a good margin, as you have seen in Q2.

The first is the new business we have won recently allow us today to be very confident that we will deliver again 200 basis points next year.

And maybe the most important one, Adam, for next year and in general is we have a conjunction at Publicis of two incredibly strong factors that, again, makes us very confident for the future, and this is why we are reiterating our guidance for 2027 and 2028, is that on one side, you have seen a drastic reduction of the competitive landscape.

Sources — records for every figure on this page (42 figures)
The 42 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.
"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.
