News Summary:

Havas Group reported 2.5% organic growth in the first half of 2026, with India serving as a strong growth market and a "bright spot." This momentum helped offset an organic decline of 4.8% in its Asia Pacific & Africa business, attributed to continued weakness in China and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Earlier in the first half of 2026, Havas accelerated its dealmaking activity, closing eight majority-stake acquisitions to strengthen specialist capabilities across experiential marketing, advisory services, analytics, and luxury brand experiences, aligning with a broader strategy to diversify revenue streams beyond traditional advertising. During the same period, the communications group deepened investments in artificial intelligence and talent across its global network, describing itself as an "AI-driven organisation fuelled by human ingenuity" and integrating technology into operations spanning over 100 countries.
