(Reuters) - Martin Sorrell's new era advertising firm S4 Capital (L:SFOR) said on Monday it had secured two major new clients in the run up to Christmas as it reported like-for-like revenue had jumped by half year-to-date to the end of November.

The digital advertising firm, launched earlier this year shortly after Sorrell left WPP (L:WPP), did not name the clients, which it said were "major global packaged goods companies". It added that gross profit rose more than 44 percent in the year-to-date period.

S4 said its deal to buy San Francisco-based programmatic ad firm MightyHive was completed on Christmas eve and three-year plans and budgets for next year were in the works.

S4 will report results for the year ending Dec. 31 in early March 2019.
