Ipsos SAIpsos, one of the world's leading market research and opinion polling companies, generated revenue of €615.2 million in the second quarter, up 4.9%, with organic growth reaching 3.0%, marking a strong rebound after a 1.4% decline in the first quarter. For the first half of 2026, revenue stood at €1,170.1 million, up 1.3%, and organic growth returned to positive territory at 0.8%, while scope effects contributed 3.9% mainly from the acquisition of The BVA Family, partially offset by the deconsolidation of Russia, and adverse currency effects had a negative impact of 3.4%. The order book for 2026 showed organic growth of 1.6% at the end of the second quarter, up from 1.0% at the end of March, driven by Public Affairs, Consumer Goods clients, and China, with improvements also in the pharmaceutical sector and the United Kingdom. All regions returned to positive organic growth in the second quarter, with EMEA at 0.9%, the Americas at 5.5%, and Asia-Pacific at 3.8%, while all audience segments accelerated, notably Citizens with nearly 8% organic growth in the quarter. The Group now expects full-year organic growth of around 2% and maintains its objective of an operating margin in line with 2025, despite the deconsolidation of Russia and the full-year inclusion of The BVA Family.
