What happened

UPS reported higher third-quarter revenue and raised its full-year outlook. The company now expects adjusted earnings of about $7.28 a share and revenue of about $92.6 billion. It also reported adjusted profit of $1.69 a share for the quarter.

Global impact / market context

The update suggests UPS is doing better than it previously expected. For ordinary investors, a raised outlook can signal that the business is improving, but the company still reported lower adjusted operating profit compared with a year earlier.

What to watch

  1. Check whether UPS meets its raised full-year targets of about $7.28 a share and $92.6 billion in revenue, because missing them could change how investors view the outlook.
  2. Watch the fourth-quarter revenue guidance of $25.7 billion at the midpoint, because it shows whether the stronger trend is expected to continue.
  3. Watch adjusted operating margin, reported at 9.0%, because it shows how much profit UPS keeps from its revenue.
