Financials Market: Havas posts modest growth and raises media stake
French advertising holding Havas reported organic growth of 2.5% for the reporting period and released its half-year figures. In the second quarter the listed agency group's net revenue rose 2.5% to €724 million. The company, led by CEO Yannick Bolloré, also increased its shareholding in a media conglomerate that is controlled by the Bolloré family, the same family that controls Havas.
Corporate half-year results and an increased stake in a Bolloré-controlled media group matter for agency performance and media ownership dynamics but do not represent an industry-shifting development.
