United Parcel Service (UPS) has announced its quarterly dividend, impressive Q1 results, and surpassed Q4 earnings estimates. This led to many significant investment changes, with both
Schroder Investment Management Group and
Tilson Financial Group Inc. adjusting their positions. Despite this, there are ongoing concerns surrounding mass job cuts. The company has just opened a new warehouse, predominantly run by robots, described as a 'linchpin of strategy'. There have also been significant union negotiations, with UPS drivers averting a strike and winning a $170,000 salary in a new deal. There's been a controversy with UPS training non-union delivery drivers during the talks, prompting harsh critiques from the Teamsters union.
Healthcare logistics provider, Bomi Group was recently acquired by UPS. Strike actions could potentially cost billions and impact 30% of US package deliveries. UPS' latest earnings reports for Q4 2022 and 2023 have been released. Although there has been criticism over work conditions inside the UPS warehouse, the company has completed the acquisition of
Bomi Group and launched business continuity training.
