UPS stock jumps 5.8% as UPS raises its 2026 outlook

What happened. UPS reported Q3 2026 results. Revenue was $22.9 billion, up 6.7%, with growth in every segment. Diluted EPS was $1.37 versus $1.55 a year earlier. Adjusted EPS was $1.69 versus $1.74. Results include $279 million of one-off charges, among them a $182 million goodwill impairment in Supply Chain Solutions.

New outlook. For 2026 UPS now expects about $92.6 billion in revenue, about $8.75 billion adjusted operating profit and about $7.28 adjusted EPS. In July the outlook was $91.2 billion, $8.65 billion and $7.22. The adjusted free cash flow target is about $6.1 billion. It plans about $5.4 billion in dividends.

Market reaction. Reuters says UPS shares rose 5.8% after the raised forecast. CEO Carol Tomé said the strength of the business lets UPS raise its full-year guidance, and that the network enters the holiday season from a position of strength.

Keep in mind. Margins are still below last year: adjusted operating margin was 9.0% versus 10.0%. The company's largest customer finished its planned volume cuts in Q2. This is not advice to buy or sell.
