NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
1) The consolidated condensed interim financial statements included
herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
2) These statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal
recurring accruals which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a
fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested
that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
3) Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of annual results.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

------------------------------------------
4) Primary earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number
of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during each year.
Fully diluted earnings per share is based on the above, and in 1993,
adjusted for the assumed conversion of the Company's 6.5% and 7%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures and the assumed increase in net income
for the after tax interest cost of these debentures. In 1994, the Company's
6.5% and the 4.5%/6.25% Step-Up Convertible Subordinated Debentures were
antidilutive and, therefore, were excluded from the calculation of fully
diluted earnings per share. The number of shares used in the computations
of primary and fully diluted earnings per share were as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
----------------------------
1994 1993
---- ----
Primary EPS computation............................32,796,600 29,165,900
Fully diluted EPS computation......................32,817,700 36,176,600
5) On May 26, 1993, the Company exchanged 1,349,260 shares of Company
common stock for all of the outstanding voting shares of TBWA International
B.V. The combination was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Accordingly, the March 31, 1993 balance sheet, results of operations and
cash flows have been restated to reflect the combination as of January 1,
1993.

6) Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits" ("SFAS 112"). The cumulative after tax effect
of the adoption of this Statement decreased net income by $28,009,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
First Quarter 1994 Compared to First Quarter 1993:
Consolidated worldwide revenues from commission and fee income increased
11% to $376,538,000 in the first quarter of 1994 from $339,139,000 in the first
quarter of 1993. Consolidated domestic revenues increased 9% to $196,942,000 in
1994 from $179,936,000 in 1993. Consolidated international commission and fee
income increased 13% to $179,596,000 in 1994 from $159,203,000 in 1993. Absent
the effect of the net acquisitions of subsidiary companies and movements in
foreign currency exchange rates, consolidated worldwide commission and fee
income increased 7% in the first quarter of 1994 as compared to the same period
in 1993.
Operating expenses increased 10% in the first quarter of 1994 as compared
to the first quarter of 1993. Excluding the effect of the net acquisition
activity and movements in foreign currency exchange rates mentioned above,
operating expenses increased 7% over 1993 levels. This increase reflects normal
salary increases, and growth in client service expenditures to support the
increased revenue base. Operating expenses as a percentage of commissions and
fees was 89.9% in the first quarter of 1994 and 90.7% in 1993.
-8-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
------------------------------------------
Net interest expense decreased by $374,000 in the first quarter of 1994 as
compared to the same period in 1993. The decrease primarily relates to lower
average interest rates during the quarter as compared to 1993.
Pretax profit margin was 8.4% in the first quarter of 1994 as compared to
7.3% in the same period in 1993. Operating margin, which excludes interest and
dividend income and interest expense, was 10.1% in the first quarter of 1994 as
compared to 9.3%, in the same period in 1993.
The effective income tax rate was 41.7% in the first quarter of 1994 and
42.0% in the first quarter of 1993.
The increase in equity in affiliates is indicative of greater profits
earned by companies in which the Company owns less than a 50% equity interest.
Minority interests of $1,598,000 is comparable with the first quarter of 1993.
-9-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
------------------------------------------
Net income before the cumulative effect of the adoption of SFAS 112,
increased 31% to $18,920,000 in the first quarter of 1994 as compared to
$14,456,000 in the same period in 1993. Absent the effect of net acquisitions of
subsidiary companies and movements in foreign currency exchange rates, net
income increased 20% in the first quarter of 1994 as compared to the first
quarter of 1993.
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits." The cumulative after-tax effect of this onetime
non-cash charge was $28,009,000.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1994 decreased to $118,324,000 from
$174,833,000 at December 31, 1993. This decline is due to the paydown of
year-end accrued liabilities and payments to media and other suppliers exceeding
collections from clients. Both events are normal recurring seasonal industry
patterns. The relationship between payables to the media and suppliers and
receivables from clients, at March 31, 1994, compares favorably to customary
industry practices.
-10-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
------------------------------------------
The Company maintains relationships with a number of banks worldwide, which
have extended unsecured committed lines of credit in amounts sufficient to meet
the Company's cash needs. At March 31, 1994, the Company had $346,106,000 in
committed lines of credit, comprised of $200,000,000 under a revolving credit
agreement expiring June 30, 1995, and $146,106,000 in unsecured committed lines
of credit, principally outside of the United States. Of the $346,106,000 in
committed lines, $147,548,000 remained available at March 31, 1994. Management
believes the aggregate lines of credit available to the Company are adequate to
support its short term cash requirements for dividends, capital expenditures and
maintenance of working capital. The Company has no present plans to introduce
incremental additional issues of long term debt. The Company anticipates that
future cash flows from operations plus funds available under line of credit
facilities will be adequate to support its long term cash requirements as
presently contemplated.
