- Marketing and Data Services revenue for the third quarter increased 6 percent to $207 million compared to $195 million for the third quarter of last year.
- IT Infrastructure Management revenue was $62 million in the recent quarter, down 11 percent as expected from $70 million in the same period last year.
- Revenue from other services for the third quarter was $9 million, up from $8 million in the comparable prior-year period.

AOS, Audience Operating System, is a new technology for data marketing and insights that Acxiom has developed.
