UPS: we will emerge as an even stronger, more nimble UPS

UPS today announced first-quarter 2025 consolidated revenues of $21.5 billion, a 0.7% decrease from the first quarter of 2024. Consolidated operating profit was $1.7 billion, up 3.3% compared to the first quarter of 2024, and up 0.9% on a non-GAAP adjusted basis. Diluted earnings per share were $1.40 for the quarter; non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.49, 4.2% above the same period in 2024. 

For the first quarter of 2025, GAAP results include a net charge of $83 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, comprised of after-tax transformation strategy costs of $44 million and a non-cash, after-tax impairment charge of $49 million, primarily related to asset and investment impairments. These charges were partially offset by a $10 million benefit for the partial reversal of an income tax valuation allowance.

 “I want to thank all UPSers for their hard work and efforts in this very dynamic environment,” said Carol Tomé, UPS chief executive officer. “As a trusted leader in global logistics, we will leverage our integrated network and trade expertise to assist our customers as they adapt to a changing trade environment. Further, the actions we are taking to reconfigure our network and reduce cost across our business could not be timelier. The macro environment may be uncertain, but with our actions, we will emerge as an even stronger, more nimble UPS.”
