Omnicom Group Inc. stock (ISIN US6819191064) is trading around $88 on August 28, 2026, with a market cap of $17.0 billion and a year-to-date gain of 8.85% on Marketscreener's real-time CBOE feed. The latest first-half numbers show why the shares still have support: revenue reached $6.56 billion and free cash flow totaled $1.50 billion.
First-half numbers still matter
The same first-half 2026 update showed revenue up 63.3% year over year, a jump tied to the Interpublic Group acquisition. Core Operations posted 6.1% organic growth, and integrated media generated $3.15 billion, or 52.5% of Core Operations revenue.
Those figures frame the stock's current setup better than a headline move alone. Omnicom also reported $3.34 billion in cash and cash equivalents at quarter-end and $10.18 billion in gross long-term debt, which keeps leverage and cash generation in the same conversation.
Consensus stays cautious
A MarketBeat snapshot on August 28, 2026, put Omnicom's consensus rating at Hold with an average price target of $99.00. In the same flow of filing-related coverage, one note said shares opened at $87.78, which leaves the stock below that target and still inside the recent trading band.
The comparison that stands out is simple: the share price is in the high-$80s, while the consensus target sits at $99.00. That gap is modest, but it gives the first-half growth story room to compete with a still-neutral view from analysts.
What Omnicom sells
Omnicom's core business is advertising, media planning, public relations, precision marketing, and healthcare communications through agencies such as BBDO, Omnicom Media Group, DDB, and TBWA. The first-half revenue mix shows how important integrated media remains inside that model, with $3.15 billion in revenue from that segment alone.
Share price picture
As of August 28, 2026, the stock was trading around $88, with a 1st Jan change of +8.85% on the cited real-time market page. The same session snapshot also showed a quote of $88.58, so the market has kept the name close to the upper-$80s range.
