Earnings: UPS Q1 2022 profit beats estimates; revenue up 6%
Freight forwarding company United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE: UPS) Tuesday reported a 6% increase in first-quarter revenues, aided by strong e-commerce demand. The positive top-line performance translated into double-digit growth in adjusted earnings, which also topped expectations.
Net profit, adjusted for non-recurring items, increased to $3.05 per share in the first quarter from $2.77 per share in the same period of 2021 and came in above analysts’ forecast. Unadjusted net income was $2.66 billion or $3.03 per share, compared to $4.79 billion or $5.47 per share last year.
Total revenues increased 6.4% year-over-year to $24.4 billion. Analysts were looking for slower growth. All the three operating segments registered growth.
