Ipsos has reported 0.8% organic growth in revenue for the first quarter of 2015 - though measured in Euros revenue was up 10.6% to EUR 379.6m.
The quarterly organic rise mirrors that for Q4 2014, reported in February when Ipsos announced a 'timid return to growth' after an 'unsatisfactory year'.
By region, Ipsos said it was 'satisfied' with good Q1 results achieved in the US, UK, Germany and France, as well as China, Japan and certain Latin American markets. However, it says this is the first time in the history of the company, that developing countries under-performed over a quarter. Emerging countries represent 32% of Ipsos' business with 0.5% organic growth, while developed countries recorded an organic growth of 1%.
