Aegis reported a “best in industry” organic revenue growth rate of 7.7 percent, driven particularly by its digital and research operations.
Aegis saw 20 percent of its revenues from 2006 come from digital media, up from 15 percent in 2005, writes MediaPost.

U.S. operations outpaced the company as a whole, with Aegis Media’s America’s revenues rising 12.6 percent.
Aegis believes its advertising and research operations will grow 5.8 percent and 4.5 percent respectively, in 2007.
