NEW YORK, NY Feb. 21, 2017 - UPS^® (NYSE:UPS) today provided an update to its multi-year growth strategies, transportation and operations network transformation, and provided long term financial targets during the company’s investor conference in New York City.

Senior executives discussed topics central to the theme of the conference; Invest. Grow. Deliver. The company’s plans include:

“Over the next several years, you will see the most sweeping transformation of our network in its history,” said David Abney, UPS chairman and CEO. “We are adding more flexible capacity, more technology, more capabilities and becoming more efficient, ultimately to improve customer and shareowner value.”

The company also announced plans to expand its U.S. delivery and pickup schedule to include six days for ground shipments. UPS will offer Saturday delivery options to the largest metropolitan areas and has started rollout throughout the U.S.

At the conference, Chief Financial Officer Richard Peretz provided the company’s 2017 outlook and updated the 2018 and 2019 financial objectives. Peretz also commented on plans for continued UPS revenue and margin expansion.

The company provides guidance on an adjusted (non-GAAP) basis because it is not possible to predict or provide a reconciliation reflecting the impact of future pension mark-to-market adjustments, which would be included in reported (GAAP) results and could be material.

““The strong financial hallmarks of UPS remain unchanged,” said Peretz. “We are great stewards of capital, generate strong cash from operations and have a generous shareowner distribution policy.”

“We continue to deliver the highest operating margins in the industry,” continued Peretz. “This legacy combined with our future growth prospects makes UPS a high-quality investment today, and for years to come as we build the smart logistics network.”

Abney and Peretz were joined at the conference by Jim Barber, president, UPS International; Alan Gershenhorn, executive vice president and chief commercial officer; Myron Gray, president, U.S. operations; Kate Gutmann, senior vice president, worldwide sales and solutions; Juan Perez, chief information officer and Mark Wallace, senior vice president, global engineering and sustainability.

Presentation materials from the conference, which was publicly available through a live webcast, and the webcast replay are available on the UPS Investor Relations website.
