/ Table 7 (AMF nomenclature) performance shares becoming available for each executive corporate officer

None, no shares became available in 2023.

With regard to the LTIP 2021 Directoire plan, the shares were delivered on March 18, 2024 after final validation by the Supervisory Board on March 6, 2024, and an external appraisal of the achievement of all performance criteria, taking into account the following results: 

  • organic growth for 45% of the shares granted: the growth rate achieved by Publicis Groupe over the 2021‑2023 period (i.e. 28.7%) is higher than the weighted average of the reference group (i.e. 23.9% (1)). 100% of the shares vested under this criterion;
  • operating margin for 45% of the shares granted: Publicis Groupe achieved the best operating margin over the period 2021‑2023(2). 100% of the shares vested under this criterion;
  • CSR for 10% of the shares granted: 
    • 43% of women on the Groupe’s Executive Committees at the end of 2023: objective achieved (43%),
    • Combating climate change with an indicative checkpoint of +50% in 2023: objective achieved (60%), 100% of the shares vested under the CSR criterion.

The calculations are based on the results published respectively in 2024 by Omnicom on February 6, IPG on February 8 and WPP on February 22; in 2023 by Omnicom on February 7, IPG on February 9 and WPP on February 23; in 2022 by Omnicom on February 8, IPG on February 10 and WPP on February 24
