Earlier this year, the parcel delivery giant’s Q4 earnings and a bleak outlook left investors disappointed. In FY24, UPS expects revenue to range from $92 billion to $94.5 billion with an adjusted operating margin between 10% and 10.6%. This estimate was below the Street’s expectations of an 11.3% operating profit margin and sales of $95.7 billion.
Moreover, the company announced that it would layoff 12,000 workers to save around $1 billion annually.
