NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Presentation of Financial Statements

The terms 'Omnicom,' 'the Company,' 'we,' 'our' and 'us' each refer to Omnicom Group Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP or GAAP, for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure have been condensed or omitted.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the information contained herein. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, or 2020 10-K. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year.

Risks and Uncertainties - Ongoing Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business

We continued to experience the negative effect on the global economy from the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2021. As the COVID-19 pandemic did not negatively impact our major markets until late in the first quarter of 2020, the negative effects on our revenue continued until we completely cycled through the end of the first quarter of 2021. Although the impact was mixed by geography and discipline, revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased $20.0 million, or 0.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in revenue primarily reflects the strengthening of certain foreign currencies, primarily the Euro and the British Pound, against the U.S. Dollar, substantially offset by a decrease in client spending attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic (see Note 2).

As long as the COVID-19 pandemic remains a public health threat, global economic conditions will continue to be volatile depending on several factors, including new information concerning the severity of the pandemic, government actions to mitigate the effects of the pandemic in the near-term, and the resulting impact on our clients' spending plans. We expect global economic performance and the performance of our businesses to vary by geography and discipline until the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy subsidies. We will continue to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and will respond accordingly.

Accounting Changes

On January 1, 2021, we adopted FASB ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740),or ASU 2019-12, which, among other things, amended the rules for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods and reduced complexity in certain areas, including the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material effect on our results of operations and financial position.

2. Revenue

Nature of our services

We provide an extensive range of advertising, marketing and corporate communications services through various client-centric networks that are organized to meet specific client objectives. Our branded networks and agencies operate in all major markets and provide services in the following fundamental disciplines: advertising, customer relationship management, or CRM, public relations, and healthcare. Advertising includes creative services, as well as strategic media planning and buying and data analytics services. Public relations services include corporate communications, crisis management, public affairs and media and media relations services. Healthcare includes advertising and media services to global healthcare clients. In an effort to better capture the expanding scope of our services, effective January 1, 2021, we realigned the classification of certain services primarily within our CRM Consumer Experience discipline. As a result, our CRM discipline has been reclassified into four categories: CRM Precision Marketing, which includes our precision marketing and digital/direct marketing agencies; CRM Commerce and Brand Consulting that is primarily comprised of Omnicom Commerce Group, including our shopper marketing businesses, and our Brand Consulting agencies; CRM Experiential, which includes our experiential marketing agencies and events businesses; and CRM Execution & Support, which includes field marketing, merchandising and point of sale, as well as other specialized marketing and custom communications services. At the core of all our services is the ability to create or develop a client's marketing or corporate communications message into content that can be delivered to a target audience across different communications mediums.

Reclassifications have been made to the prior period revenue by discipline information to conform to current period presentation.

Work in process represents accrued costs incurred on behalf of customers, including media and production costs, and fees and other third-party costs that have not yet been billed. Media and production costs are billed during the production process in accordance with the terms of the client contract. Contract assets primarily include incentive fees, which are not material and will be billed to clients in accordance with the terms of the client contract. Substantially all unbilled fees and costs will be billed within the next 30 days. The contract liability primarily represents advance billings to customers in accordance with the terms of the client contracts, primarily for the reimbursement of third-party costs that are generally incurred in the near term. No impairment losses to the contract assets were recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

5. Debt

Credit Facilities

We maintain a $2.5 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, that matures on February 14, 2025. We have uncommitted credit lines aggregating $1.0 billion and the ability to issue up to $2 billion of commercial paper. These facilities provide additional liquidity sources for operating capital and general corporate purposes. Our $400 million 364-day revolving credit facility, or 364 Day Credit Facility, that we entered into to mitigate any potential impact on our liquidity from the COVID-19 pandemic expired on April 2, 2021 without being drawn. At March 31, 2021, there were no outstanding commercial paper issuances or borrowings under the Credit Facility, the 364 Day Credit Facility or the uncommitted credit lines.

The Credit Facility contains and,prior to its expiration, the 364 Day Credit Facility contained, a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. We amended the Credit Facility and the 364 Day Credit Facility in October 2020 to increase the maximum Leverage Ratio to 4.0 times through December 31, 2021 for the Credit Agreement and to 4.0 times through the maturity of the 364 Day Credit Facility.At March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with these covenants as our Leverage Ratio was 2.8 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.

Short-Term Debt

Short-term debt at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 of $5.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively, represented bank overdrafts and short-term borrowings primarily of our international subsidiaries. Due to the short-term nature of this debt, carrying value approximates fair value.

Long-Term Debt

The 2.45% Senior Notes and the 4.20% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Omnicom that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

Omnicom and its wholly owned finance subsidiary, Omnicom Capital Inc., or OCI, are co-obligors under the senior notes due 2022, 2024 and 2026. These notes are a joint and several liability of Omnicom and OCI, and Omnicom unconditionally guarantees OCI's obligations with respect to the notes. OCI provides funding for our operations by incurring debt and lending the proceeds to our operating subsidiaries. OCI's assets primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and intercompany loans made to our operating subsidiaries, and the related interest receivable. There are no restrictions on the ability of OCI or Omnicom to obtain funds from our subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. Such notes are senior unsecured obligations that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

Omnicom and OCI have, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of Omnicom Finance Holdings plc, or OFHP, a U.K.-based wholly owned subsidiary of Omnicom, with respect to the Euro denominated notes due 2027 and 2031. OFHP's assets consist of its investments in several wholly owned finance companies that function as treasury centers that provide funding for various operating companies in Europe, Brazil, Australia and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The finance companies' assets consist of cash and cash equivalents and intercompany loans that they make or have made to the operating companies in their respective regions and the related interest receivable. There are no restrictions on the ability of Omnicom, OCI or OFHP to obtain funds from their subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. The Euro denominated notes and the related guarantees are senior unsecured obligations that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of OFHP and each of Omnicom and OCI, respectively.

6. Segment Reporting

Our five branded agency networks operate in the advertising, marketing and corporate communications services industry, and are organized into agency networks, virtual client networks, regional reporting units and operating groups or practice areas. Our networks, virtual client networks and agencies increasingly share clients and provide clients with integrated services. The main economic components of each agency are employee compensation and related costs and direct service costs and occupancy and other costs which include rent and occupancy costs, technology costs and other overhead expenses. Therefore, given these similarities, we aggregate our operating segments, which are our five agency networks, into one reporting segment.

The agency networks' regional reporting units comprise three principal regions: the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific. The regional reporting units monitor the performance and are responsible for the agencies in their region. Agencies within the regional reporting units serve similar clients in similar industries and, in many cases, the same clients, and have similar economic characteristics.

At March 31, 2021, our unrecognized tax benefits were $181.2 million. Of this amount, approximately $172.2 million would affect our effective tax rate upon resolution of the uncertain tax positions.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business

As long as the COVID-19 pandemic remains a public health threat, global economic conditions will continue to be volatile depending on several factors, including new information concerning the severity of the pandemic, government actions to mitigate the effects of the pandemic in the near-term, and the resulting impact on our clients' spending plans. We expect global economic performance and the performance of our businesses to vary by geography and discipline until the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy subsides. We will continue to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and will respond accordingly.

Results of Operations for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2021

We are a strategic holding company providing advertising, marketing and corporate communications services to clients through our branded networks and agencies around the world. On a global, pan-regional and local basis, our branded networks and agencies operate in all major markets and provide services in the following fundamental disciplines: advertising, customer relationship management, or CRM, public relations, and healthcare. Advertising includes creative services, as well as strategic media planning and buying and data analytics services. Public relations services include corporate communications, crisis management, public affairs and media and media relations services. Healthcare includes advertising and media services to global healthcare clients. In an effort to better capture the expanding scope of our services, effective January 1, 2021, we realigned the classification of certain services primarily within our CRM Consumer Experience discipline. As a result, our CRM discipline has been reclassified into four categories: CRM Precision Marketing, which includes our precision marketing and digital/direct marketing agencies; CRM Commerce and Brand Consulting that is primarily comprised of Omnicom Commerce Group, including our shopper marketing businesses, and our Brand Consulting agencies; CRM Experiential, which includes our experiential marketing agencies and events businesses; and CRM Execution & Support, which includes field marketing, merchandising and point of sale, as well as other specialized marketing and custom communications services. Our business model was built and continues to evolve around our clients. While our networks and agencies operate under different names and frame their ideas in different disciplines, we organize our services around our clients. Our fundamental business principle is that our clients' specific marketing requirements are the central focus of how we structure our service offerings and allocate our resources. This client-centric business model requires that multiple agencies within Omnicom collaborate in formal and informal virtual client networks utilizing our key client matrix organization structure. This collaboration allows us to cut across our internal organizational structures to execute our clients' marketing requirements in a consistent and comprehensive manner. We use our client-centric approach to grow our business by expanding our service offerings to existing clients, moving into new markets and obtaining new clients. In addition, we pursue selective acquisitions of complementary companies with strong entrepreneurial management teams that typically currently serve or could serve our existing clients.

As a leading global advertising, marketing and corporate communications company, we operate in all major markets and have a large and diverse client base. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, our largest client accounted for 3.3% of our revenue and our 100 largest clients, which represent many of the world's major marketers, accounted for approximately 54% of our revenue. Our business is spread across a number of industry sectors with no one industry comprising more than 16% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Although our revenue is generally balanced between the United States and international markets, and we have a large and diverse client base, we are not immune to general economic downturns.

Certain global events targeted by major marketers for advertising expenditures, such as the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics, and certain national events, such as the U.S. election process, may affect our revenue period-over-period in certain businesses. Typically, these events do not have a significant impact on our revenue in any period.

Global economic conditions have a direct impact on our business and financial performance. Adverse global or regional economic conditions, such as those arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, pose a risk that our clients may reduce, postpone or cancel spending on advertising, marketing and corporate communications services, which would reduce the demand for our

services. Revenue is typically lower in the first and third quarters and higher in the second and fourth quarters, reflecting client spending patterns during the year and additional project work that usually occurs in the fourth quarter.

Beginning in March 2020 and continuing through the first quarter of 2021, our business experienced the effects from reductions in client spending due to the impact related to the COVID-19 pandemic. While mixed by business and geography, the spending reductions impacted all our businesses and markets. Globally, the most significantly impacted businesses were our CRM Experiential discipline, especially in our event marketing businesses, and our CRM Execution & Support discipline, primarily in field marketing. The economic and fiscal issues, including the impact related to the COVID-19 pandemic, facing the countries we operate in can be expected to continue to cause economic uncertainty and volatility; however, the impact on our business varies by country. We monitor economic conditions closely, as well as client revenue levels and other factors. In response to reductions in revenue, we can take actions to align our cost structure with changes in client demand and manage our working capital. However, there can be no assurance as to the effectiveness of our efforts to mitigate any impact of the current and future adverse economic conditions, reductions in client revenue, changes in client creditworthiness and other developments.

General business trends impact our business and industry. On balance, we believe that these effects are generally positive. These trends include integrating traditional and non-traditional marketing channels, as well as utilizing new communications technologies and emerging digital platforms, and clients increasingly expanding the focus of their brand strategies from national markets to pan-regional and global markets. As clients increase their demands for marketing effectiveness and efficiency, many of them have made it a practice to consolidate their business within one or a small number of service providers in the pursuit of a single engagement covering all consumer touch points. We have structured our business around these trends. While the current economic environment caused many clients to reduce spending for our services, certain trends such as increased spending on digital marketing platforms, and our key client matrix organization structure approach to collaboration and integration of our services and solutions provide a competitive advantage to our business. We expect this advantage to continue over the medium and long term.

Driven by our clients' continuous demand for more effective and efficient marketing activities, we strive to provide an extensive range of advertising, marketing and corporate communications services through various client-centric networks that are organized to meet specific client objectives. These services include, among others, advertising, brand consulting, content marketing, corporate social responsibility consulting, crisis communications, custom publishing, data analytics, database management, digital/direct marketing, digital transformation, entertainment marketing, experiential marketing, field marketing, financial/corporate business-to-business advertising, graphic arts/digital imaging, healthcare marketing and communications, in-store design, interactive marketing, investor relations, marketing research, media planning and buying, merchandising and point of sale, mobile marketing, multi-cultural marketing, non-profit marketing, organizational communications, package design, product placement, promotional marketing, public affairs, public relations, retail marketing, sales support, search engine marketing, shopper marketing, social media marketing and sports and event marketing.

We continually evaluate our portfolio of businesses to identify areas for investment and acquisition opportunities, as well as to identify non-strategic or underperforming businesses for disposition.

Given our size and breadth, we manage our business by monitoring several financial indicators. The key indicators that we focus on are revenue and operating expenses. We analyze revenue growth by reviewing the components and mix of the growth, including growth by principal regional market and marketing discipline, the impact from foreign currency exchange rate changes, growth from acquisitions, net of dispositions and growth from our largest clients. Operating expenses are comprised of cost of services, selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, and depreciation and amortization.

Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 increased $20.0 million, or 0.6%, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Changes in foreign exchange rates increased revenue 2.8%, acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue, reduced revenue 0.4% and negative organic growth decreased revenue 1.8% as all our markets were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The change in revenue across our principal regional markets were: North America decreased $24.8 million, Europe increased $17.6 million, Asia-Pacific increased $40.7 million and Latin America decreased $8.2 million. In North America, an increase in organic revenue in our advertising discipline, which was lead by our media businesses, and CRM Precision Marketing discipline was offset by a decline in organic revenue primarily in our CRM Experiential business. In Europe, the increase in revenue from the strengthening of the Euro and the British Pound against the U.S. Dollar and an increase in organic revenue in our CRM Precision Marketing discipline, offset a decline in organic revenue in most other businesses due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in our major markets in the region. In Latin America, growth in Mexico and other countries in the region was offset by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing unstable economic and political conditions in Brazil, resulting in negative organic growth in the region. Additionally, the weakening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar further contributed to the reduction in revenue in the region. In Asia-Pacific, revenue increased from the strengthening of substantially all currencies in the region, organic growth in Australia and China and a mixed performance by other countries in the region as the economies in the region began to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. The change in revenue in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020, in our fundamental disciplines was: advertising increased $70.4 million, CRM Precision Marketing increased $37.5 million, CRM Commerce and Brand Consulting decreased

$6.4 million, CRM Experiential decreased $42.9 million, CRM Execution & Support decreased $27.1 million, public relations decreased $16.2 million and healthcare increased $4.7 million.

We measure cost of services in two distinct categories: salary and service costs and occupancy and other costs. As a service business, salary and service costs make up the significant portion of our operating expenses and substantially all these costs comprise the essential components directly linked to the delivery of our services. Salary and service costs include employee compensation and benefits, freelance labor and third-party service costs, which include third-party supplier costs and client-related travel costs. Occupancy and other costs consist of the indirect costs related to the delivery of our services, including office rent and other occupancy costs, equipment rent, technology costs, general office expenses and other expenses.

SG&A expenses decreased period-over-period in substantially all categories. SG&A expenses primarily consist of third-party marketing costs, professional fees and compensation and benefits and occupancy and other costs of our corporate and executive offices, which includes group-wide finance and accounting, treasury, legal and governance, human resource oversight and similar costs.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, salary and service costs, which tend to fluctuate with changes in revenue, increased $11.7 million, or 0.5%, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Salary and related service costs in the quarter ended March 31, 2021 increased $6.8 million, or 0.4%, period-over-period, primarily reflecting an increase arising from the strengthening of certain foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and Euro, against the U.S. Dollar. In addition, certain businesses that experienced organic revenue growth in the quarter increased their headcount. Third-party service costs, which are included in salary and service costs and include expenses incurred with third-party vendors primarily when we act as a principal when performing services for our clients, increased $4.9 million, or 0.6%, period-over-period also reflecting an increase arising from the strengthening of certain foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound and Euro, against the U.S. Dollar. Occupancy and other costs, which are less directly linked to changes in revenue than salary and service costs, decreased $18.0 million, or 5.8%, in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020, reflecting the actions we took in the second quarter of 2020 to align our cost structure. Operating profit increased $45.2 million to $465.4 million. Operating margin increased to 13.6% from 12.3%, and EBITA margin increased to 14.2% from 12.9%, period-over-period. The increases in operating profit, operating margin and EBITA margin reflect the impact of the positive effect of the actions taken in the second quarter of 2020 to align our cost structure in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and reduced travel and office expenses resulting from the remote working environment.

Net interest expense in the first quarter of 2021 increased $1.7 million period-over-period to $47.5 million. Interest expense on debt in the first quarter of 2021 decreased $5.9 million to $47.9 million, primarily reflecting a reduction in interest expense from our refinancing activity at lower interest rates in the first quarter of 2020 and higher interest expense in the prior year period arising from a loss of $7.7 million on the early redemption of the remaining $600 million principal amount of the 4.45% Senior Notes due 2020, or 2020 Notes, in the first quarter of 2020. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the interest expense from the issuance of the 4.20% Senior Notes due 2030, or 4.20% Notes, in April 2020. Interest income in the first quarter of 2021 decreased$6.4 million period-over-period to $6.3 million, primarily due to lower rates.

Our effective tax rate for the three months of 2021 was in line with our expectations for the year and increased period-over-period to 26.8% from 26.0%. The recognition of certain domestic tax credits in the first quarter of 2020 had the effect of decreasing our effective tax rate for the three months of 2020.

Net income - Omnicom Group Inc. for the first quarter of 2021 was $287.8 million as compared to $258.1 million in the first quarter of 2020. The period-over-period increase is due to the factors described above. Diluted income per share - Omnicom Group Inc. was $1.33 in the first quarter of 2021 compared to $1.19 in the first quarter of 2020. The period-over-period change was due to the factors described above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use EBITA and EBITA Margin as additional operating performance measures that exclude the non-cash amortization expense of intangible assets, which primarily consists of amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions. We define EBITA as earnings before interest, taxes and amortization of intangible assets, and EBITA Margin as EBITA divided by revenue. EBITA and EBITA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that EBITA and EBITA Margin are useful measures for investors to evaluate the performance of our business. 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.

The following table reconciles the U.S. GAAP financial measure of Net Income - Omnicom Group Inc. to EBITA and EBITA Margin for the periods presented (in millions):

Revenue

The components of revenue change for the first quarter of 2021 in the United States ('Domestic') and the remainder of the world ('International') were (in millions):


Total	Domestic	International
$	%	$	%	$	%
March 31, 2020	$	3,406.9	$	1,894.2	$	1,512.7
Components of revenue change:
Foreign exchange rate impact	95.7	2.8	%	-	-	%	95.7	6.3	%
Acquisition revenue, net of disposition revenue	(15.1)	(0.4)	%	(7.9)	(0.4)	%	(7.2)	(0.5)	%
Organic growth	(60.6)	(1.8)	%	(18.2)	(1.0)	%	(42.4)	(2.8)	%
March 31, 2021	$	3,426.9	0.6	%	$	1,868.1	(1.4)	%	$	1,558.8	3.0	%

The components and percentages are calculated as follows:

•Foreign exchange rate impact is calculated by translating the current period's local currency revenue using the prior period average exchange rates to derive current period constant currency revenue (in this case $3,331.2 million for the Total column). The foreign exchange impact is the difference between the current period revenue in U.S. Dollars and the current period constant currency revenue ($3,426.9 million less $3,331.2 million for the Total column).

•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 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 dispositions through the disposition date. The acquisition revenue and disposition revenue amounts are netted in the table.

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

•The percentage change is calculated by dividing the individual component amount by the prior period revenue base of that component ($3,406.9 million for the Total column).

Changes in the value of foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar affect our results of operations and financial position. For the most part, because the revenue and expense of our foreign operations are both denominated in the same local currency, the economic impact on operating margin is minimized. Assuming exchange rates at April 15, 2021 remain unchanged, we expect the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates to increase revenue between 3.5% and 4.0% in the second quarter of 2021, and by approximately 2.0% for the full year.

Revenue in Europe, which includes our primary markets of the U.K. and the Euro Zone, increased $17.6 million for the first quarter of 2021. Revenue in the U.K., representing 10.4% of consolidated revenue, increased $11.5 million. Revenue in Continental Europe, which comprises the Euro Zone and the other European countries, representing 17.1% of consolidated revenue, increased $6.1 million. The increase in revenue is due to the strengthening of the British Pound and Euro against the U.S. Dollar and organic growth in our CRM Precision Marketing discipline, substantially offset by negative organic growth in most other businesses in the region attributable to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the normal course of business, our agencies both gain and lose business from clients each year due to a variety of factors. The reduction in spending by existing clients resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic offset the benefit of gains of new business in the first quarter of 2021. Under our client-centric approach, we seek to broaden our relationships with all of our clients. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, our largest client represented 3.3% and 3.0% of revenue, respectively. Our ten largest and 100 largest clients represented 21.5% and 54.2% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, and 19.5% and 50.0% of revenue for the for the twelve months ended March 31, 2020, respectively.

To monitor the changing needs of our clients and to further expand the scope of our services to key clients, we monitor revenue across a broad range of disciplines and group them into the following categories: advertising, CRM, public relations and healthcare. In an effort to better capture the expanding scope of our services, effective January 1, 2021, we realigned the classification of certain services primarily within our CRM Consumer Experience discipline. As a result, our CRM discipline has been reclassified into four categories: CRM Precision Marketing, which includes our precision marketing and digital/direct marketing agencies; CRM Commerce and Brand Consulting that is primarily comprised of Omnicom Commerce Group, including our shopper marketing businesses, and our Brand Consulting agencies; CRM Experiential, which includes our experiential marketing agencies and events businesses; and CRM Execution & Support, which includes field marketing, merchandising and point of sale, as well as other specialized marketing and custom communications services.

Our business experienced the effects from client spending reductions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact varied by discipline and market. The most significantly impacted businesses were our CRM Experiential discipline, especially in our event marketing businesses, and our CRM Execution & Support discipline, primarily in our field marketing businesses. Revenue and organic growth by discipline were (in millions):

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For a more complete understanding of our accounting policies, the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, readers are encouraged to consider this information together with Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and with our discussion of our critical accounting policies under the heading 'Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations' in our 2020 10-K.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements provides information regarding new accounting standards.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Sources and Requirements

Our primary liquidity sources are our operating cash flow and cash and cash equivalents. Additional liquidity sources include our $2.5 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, maturing on February 14, 2025, uncommitted credit lines aggregating $1.0 billion, and the ability to issue up to $2 billion of commercial paper and access the capital markets. Our liquidity funds our non-discretionary cash requirements and our discretionary spending.

In the second quarter of 2020, we took steps to strengthen our liquidity and financial position that were intended to mitigate any potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity. Among other things, we issued $600 million 4.20% Senior Notes due 2030, entered into a $400 million 364-day revolving credit facility, or 364 Day Credit Facility, and suspended our share repurchase activity. The 364 Day Credit facility expired on April 2, 2021 without being drawn, and we anticipate resuming our share repurchase activity at some point in 2021 assuming the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to stabilize in the economies in our major markets.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility may use LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate. The LIBOR benchmark rate is expected to be phased out by the end of June 2023. We do not expect that the discontinuation of the LIBOR rate will have a material impact on our liquidity or results of operations.

Working capital is our principal non-discretionary funding requirement. In addition, we have contractual obligations related to our long-term debt (principal and interest payments), recurring business operations, primarily related to lease obligations, and contingent purchase price obligations (earn-outs) from acquisitions. Our principal discretionary cash spending includes dividend payments to common shareholders, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and repurchases of our common stock. Our typical working capital cycle results in a short-term borrowing requirement that normally peaks during the second quarter of the year due to the timing of payments for incentive compensation, income taxes and contingent purchase price obligations.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $703.2 million from December 31, 2020. During the first three months of 2021, we used $460.9 million of cash in operating activities, which included the use for operating capital of $843.5 million, primarily related to our typical working capital requirement during the period and the impact of foreign exchange rate changes, as compared to the prior year period. Our discretionary spending for the first three months of 2021 was $172.5 million as compared to $387.0 million for the first three months of 2020. Discretionary spending for the first three months of 2021 is comprised of: capital expenditures of $12.4 million; dividends paid to common shareholders of $140.1 million; dividends paid to shareholders of noncontrolling interests of $13.6 million; repurchases of our common stock, net of proceeds from stock option exercises and related tax benefits and common stock sold to our employee stock purchase plan, of $2.7 million; and acquisition payments, including payment of contingent purchase price obligations and acquisition of additional shares of noncontrolling interests, net of cash acquired, of $9.1 million. In addition, the impact of foreign exchange rate changes reduced cash and cash equivalents by $55.8 million.

Cash Management

Our regional treasury centers in North America, Europe and Asia manage our cash and liquidity. Each day, operations with excess funds invest those funds with their regional treasury center. Likewise, operations that require funds borrow from their regional treasury center. Treasury centers with excess cash invest on a short-term basis with third parties, generally with maturities ranging from overnight to less than 90 days. Certain treasury centers have notional pooling arrangements that are used to manage their cash and set-off foreign exchange imbalances. The arrangements require each treasury center to have its own notional pool account and to maintain a notional positive account balance. Additionally, under the terms of the arrangement, set-off of foreign exchange positions are limited to the long and short positions within their own account. To the extent that our treasury centers require liquidity, they have the ability to issue up to a total of $2 billion of U.S. Dollar-denominated commercial paper or borrow under the Credit Facility, or the uncommitted credit lines. This process enables us to manage our debt more efficiently and utilize our cash more effectively, as well as manage our risk to foreign exchange rate imbalances. In countries where we either do not conduct treasury operations or it is not feasible for one of our treasury centers to fund net borrowing requirements on an intercompany basis, we arrange for local currency uncommitted credit lines. We have a policy governing counterparty credit risk with financial institutions that hold our cash and cash equivalents and we have deposit limits for each institution. In countries where we conduct treasury operations, generally the counterparties are either branches or subsidiaries of institutions that are party to the Credit Facility. These institutions generally have credit ratings equal to or better than our credit ratings. In countries where we do not conduct treasury operations, all cash and cash equivalents are held by counterparties that meet specific minimum credit standards

At March 31, 2021, our foreign subsidiaries held approximately $2.0 billion of our total cash and cash equivalents of $4.9 billion. Most of the cash is available to us, net of any foreign withholding taxes payable upon repatriation to the United States.

At March 31, 2021, our net debt position, which we define as total debt, including short-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents increased $863.0 million as compared to $210.7 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in net debt primarily resulted from the use of cash of $843.5 million for operating capital principally related to our typical working capital requirements during the period. In addition, the impact of foreign exchange rate changes decreased cash and cash equivalents by $55.8 million, as compared to December 31, 2020. Net debt decreased $1.5 billion from $2.4 billion at March 31, 2020 due to conservative management of our cash during the COVID-19 pandemic, including the suspension of share buybacks.

The components of net debt were (in millions):


March 31, 2021	December 31, 2020	March 31, 2020
Short-term debt	$	5.9	$	3.9	$	10.9
Long-term debt, including current portion	5,754.4	5,807.3	5,093.4
Total debt	5,760.3	5,811.2	5,104.3
Less: Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments	4,897.3	5,600.5	2,694.1
Net debt	$	863.0	$	210.7	$	2,410.2

Net debt is a Non-GAAP liquidity measure. This presentation, together with the comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measures, reflects one of the key metrics used by us to assess our cash management. Non-GAAP liquidity measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP liquidity measures as reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.

Debt Instruments and Related Covenants

The 2.45% Senior Notes and the 4.20% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Omnicom that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

proceeds to our operating subsidiaries. OCI's assets primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and intercompany loans made to our operating subsidiaries, and the related interest receivable. There are no restrictions on the ability of OCI or Omnicom to obtain funds from our subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. Such notes are senior unsecured obligations that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

Omnicom and OCI have, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed OFHP's obligations with respect to the Euro denominated notes due 2027 and 2031. OFHP's assets consist of its investments in several wholly owned finance companies that function as treasury centers that provide funding for various operating companies in Europe, Brazil, Australia and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The finance companies' assets consist of cash and cash equivalents and intercompany loans that they make or have made to the operating companies in their respective regions and the related interest receivable. There are no restrictions on the ability of Omnicom, OCI or OFHP to obtain funds from their subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. The Euro denominated notes and the related guarantees are senior unsecured obligations that rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of OFHP and each of Omnicom and OCI, respectively.

The Credit Facility contains and,prior to its expiration, the 364 Day Credit Facility contained, a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. On October 26, 2020, we amended the Credit Facility and the 364 Day Credit Facility to provide additional flexibility with respect to the Leverage Ratio covenant. The amendments increase the maximum Leverage Ratio to 4.0 times through December 31, 2021 for the Credit Agreement and to 4.0 times through the maturity of the 364 Day Credit Facility. At March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with these covenants as our Leverage Ratio was 2.8 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.

At March 31, 2021, our long-term and short-term debt was rated BBB+ and A2 by S&P and Baa1 and P2 by Moody's. Our access to the commercial paper market and the cost of these borrowings are affected by market conditions and our credit ratings. Our long-term debt and Credit Facility do not contain provisions that require acceleration of cash payments in the event of a downgrade in our credit ratings.

Credit Markets and Availability of Credit

In light of the uncertainty of future economic conditions, we will continue to take actions available to us to respond to changing economic conditions, and we will continue to actively manage our discretionary expenditures. We will continue to monitor and manage the level of credit made available to our clients. We believe that these actions, in addition to the availability of our Credit Facility, are sufficient to fund our near-term working capital needs and our discretionary spending. For additional information about our credit facilities, see Note 5 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

We have typically funded our day-to-day liquidity by issuing commercial paper. Beginning in the third quarter of 2020 and continuing through the first quarter of 2021, we substantially reduced our commercial paper issuances as compared to the prior year periods primarily as a result of the issuance of the 4.20% Notes in April 2020. Additional liquidity sources include our Credit Facility, or the uncommitted credit lines. At March 31, 2021, there were no commercial paper issuances during the quarter or borrowings under the Credit Facility or the uncommitted credit lines.

Commercial paper activity was (dollars in millions):


Three Months Ended March 31,
2021	2020
Average amount outstanding during the quarter	$	-	$	64.4
Maximum amount outstanding during the quarter	$	-	$	361.7
Average days outstanding	-	1.9
Weighted average interest rate	-	%	1.64	%

We expect to continue issuing commercial paper to fund our day-to-day liquidity when needed. However, disruptions in the credit markets may lead to periods of illiquidity in the commercial paper market and higher credit spreads. To mitigate any disruption in the credit markets and to fund our liquidity, we may borrow under the Credit Facility or the uncommitted credit lines or access the capital markets if favorable conditions exist. We will continue to monitor closely our liquidity and conditions in the credit markets. We cannot predict with any certainty the impact on us of any disruptions in the credit markets. In such circumstances, we may need to obtain additional financing to fund our day-to-day working capital requirements. Such additional financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.

CREDIT RISK

We provide advertising, marketing and corporate communications services to several thousand clients that operate in nearly every sector of the global economy and we grant credit to qualified clients in the normal course of business. Due to the diversified nature of our client base, we do not believe that we are exposed to a concentration of credit risk as our largest client represented 3.3% of revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2021. However, during periods of economic downturn, the credit profiles of our clients could change.

In the normal course of business, our agencies enter into contractual commitments with media providers and production companies on behalf of our clients at levels that can substantially exceed the revenue from our services. These commitments are included in accounts payable when the services are delivered by the media providers or production companies. If permitted by local law and the client agreement, many of our agencies purchase media and production services for our clients as an agent for a disclosed principal. In addition, while operating practices vary by country, media type and media vendor, in the United States and certain foreign markets, many of our agencies' contracts with media and production providers specify that our agencies are not liable to the media and production providers under the theory of sequential liability until and to the extent we have been paid by our client for the media or production services.

Where purchases of media and production services are made by our agencies as a principal or are not subject to the theory of sequential liability, the risk of a material loss as a result of payment default by our clients could increase significantly and such a loss could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

In addition, our methods of managing the risk of payment default, including obtaining credit insurance, requiring payment in advance, mitigating the potential loss in the marketplace or negotiating with media providers, may be less available or unavailable during a severe economic downturn.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We manage our exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risk through various strategies, including the use of derivative financial instruments. We use forward foreign exchange contracts as economic hedges to manage the cash flow volatility arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We may use interest rate swaps to manage our interest expense and structure our long-term debt portfolio to achieve a mix of fixed rate and floating rate debt. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Using derivatives exposes us to the risk that counterparties to the derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. We manage that risk through careful selection and ongoing evaluation of the counterparty financial institutions based on specific minimum credit standards and other factors.

Our 2020 10-K provides a detailed discussion of the market risks affecting our operations. No material change has occurred in our market risks since the disclosure contained in our 2020 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within applicable time periods. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, including our CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of March 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that decisions can be made timely with respect to required disclosures, as well as ensuring that the recording, processing, summarization and reporting of information required to be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 are appropriate.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management, with the participation of our CEO, CFO and our agencies, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2021. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 10-K, has issued an attestation report on Omnicom's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, dated February 18, 2021.
