""Our clients are used to navigating uncertainty. They know that if they cut marketing spend, they will lose market share... This is why we have not seen any significant reduction in marketing budget in Q1.""
""This performance, in line with our full year 2026 guidance, was driven in particular by continued strength in the U.S.""
In 2026, despite uncertain economic conditions and a decline in 401K performance, the advertising marketplace remains resilient. Clients are not reducing ad spend, as they understand that cutting marketing budgets can lead to long-term market share loss.
