UPS Domestic Profitability Drops Despite Solid Demand, International Profitability Thrives
UPS grew its first-quarter top line 10% and expanded EPS 17% via strong contribution from its international and supply chain segments. While its largest segment, domestic, grew revenue 7% from the prior-year period, weather hampered domestic margins via disruptions to parts of the network in 10 of 13 weeks in the quarter. Pension expense, rolling out Saturday service, and work on network projects not yet generating benefits also increased expenses. Weather alone reduced domestic EBIT by about 10...United Parcel Service provides transportation services, primarily domestic and international letter and package delivery.
