United Parcel Service Likely to Deliver In-Line Results, UBS Says

11:58 AM EDT, 10/02/2026 (MT Newswires) -- United Parcel Service (UPS) is expected to report in-line results with market consensus amid positive pricing environment, UBS Securities said Friday in a note. UBS analysts said they made "minor" adjustments to Q3 and Q4 forecasts following tweaks to package margin forecasts. They are now in line with consensus on Q3 EPS of $1.63, down from prior $1.67. They forecast Q4 EPS of $2.70, versus $2.72 previously, and compared with consensus of $2.73. The report said checks with the market pointed to expectations for a normal peak season lift to activity, a key factor for Q4 amid macro concerns, including fuel prices and higher interest rates. Feedback from the company and FedEx (FDX) also pointed to a positive pricing environment, the note said. UBS kept its buy rating with a price target of $124.
