On February 1, 2006, MDC Partners Inc. (the “Company”) intends to post the information attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto on its web site (www.mdc-partners.com). These documents may be used for one or more investor presentations.

Included in the information attached as Exhibit 99.1 is revised segment disclosure for revenue and operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, respectively.

 

The foregoing information (including the exhibits hereto) is being furnished under “Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.” Such information (including the exhibits hereto) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
