Cautionary Statement About Forward-Looking Statements

This report, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain and in the future may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements other than those of current or historical fact, and all statements accompanied by terms such as “will,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “estimate,” “assume,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “plan,” and similar terms, are intended to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made subject to the safe harbor provisions of the federal securities laws pursuant to Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

From time to time, we also include written or oral forward-looking statements in other publicly disclosed materials. Such statements may relate to our intent, belief, forecasts of, or current expectations about our strategic direction, prospects, future results, or future events; they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made and the future, by its very nature, cannot be predicted with certainty.

Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or anticipated results. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the impact of: continued uncertainties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic; changes in general economic conditions, in the U.S. or internationally; industry evolution and significant competition; changes in our relationships with any of our significant customers; our ability to attract and retain qualified employees; strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns by our employees; impacts arising from negotiations and ratifications of labor contracts; our ability to maintain our brand image and corporate reputation; increased or more complex physical security requirements; a significant data breach or information technology system disruption; global climate change; interruptions in or impacts on our business from natural or man-made events or disasters including terrorist attacks, epidemics or pandemics; exposure to changing economic, political and social developments in international markets; our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from acquisitions, dispositions, joint ventures or strategic alliances; changing prices of energy, including gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, or interruptions in supplies of these commodities; changes in exchange rates or interest rates; our ability to accurately forecast our future capital investment needs; significant expenses and funding obligations relating to employee health, retiree health and/or pension benefits; our ability to manage insurance and claims expenses; changes in business strategy, government regulations, or economic or market conditions that may result in impairments of our assets; potential additional U.S. or international tax liabilities; increasingly stringent laws and regulations, including relating to climate change; potential claims or litigation related to labor and employment, personal injury, property damage, business practices, environmental liability and other matters; and other risks discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and subsequently filed reports. You should consider the limitations on, and risks associated with, forward-looking statements and not unduly rely on the accuracy of predictions contained in such forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances, changes in expectations, or the occurrence of unanticipated events after the date of those statements, except as required by law.

From time to time, we expect to participate in analyst and investor conferences. Materials provided or displayed at those conferences, such as slides and presentations, may be posted on our investor relations website at www.investors.ups.com under the heading "Presentations" when made available. These presentations may contain new material nonpublic information about our company and you are encouraged to monitor this site for any new posts, as we may use this mechanism as a public announcement.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited, consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The results reported in these unaudited, consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any other period or the entire year. The unaudited, consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited, consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In the first six months of 2023, we reclassified certain operating expenses to better align with the manner in which we manage our operations. Substantially all of these costs were previously classified within operating expenses as Other expenses and have now been classified within operating expenses as Repairs and maintenance in the statements of consolidated income. The remaining line items within operating expenses impacted by this reclassification were inconsequential. As a result, the statements of consolidated income give effect to this reclassification as follows:

•For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023: decreasing Other expenses by $92 and $180 million, and increasing Repairs and maintenance by $93 and $176 million, respectively.

•For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022: decreasing Other expenses by $77 and $154 million, and increasing Repairs and maintenance by $84 and $159 million, respectively.

The reclassification had no impact on our reported revenue, operating profit, net income, or any internal performance measure on which management is compensated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance receivables and accounts payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The fair values of our marketable securities are disclosed in note 5, our recognized multiemployer pension withdrawal liabilities in note 7, our short- and long-term debt in note 9 and our derivative instruments in note 15. We apply a fair value hierarchy (Levels 1, 2 and 3) when measuring and reporting items at fair value. Fair values are based on listed market prices (Level 1), when such prices are available. To the extent that listed market prices are not available, fair value is determined based on other relevant factors, including dealer price quotations (Level 2). If listed market prices or other relevant factors are not available, inputs are developed from unobservable data reflecting our own assumptions and include situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability (Level 3).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of these financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Although our estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from our expectations, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial position. As a result, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change significantly over time.

5

Supplier Finance Programs

As part of our working capital management, certain financial institutions offer a Supply Chain Finance ("SCF") program to certain of our suppliers. We agree to commercial terms with our suppliers, including prices, quantities and payment terms, regardless of whether the supplier elects to participate in the SCF program. Suppliers issue invoices to us based on the agreed-upon contractual terms. If they participate in the SCF program, our suppliers, at their sole discretion, determine which invoices, if any, to sell to the financial institutions. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the SCF program has no bearing on our payment terms. No guarantees are provided by us under the SCF program. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate, and we have no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions, as it relates to the SCF program.

Amounts due to our suppliers that participate in the SCF program are included in Accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheets. We have been informed by the participating financial institutions that as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, suppliers sold them $807 and $806 million, respectively, of our outstanding payment obligations.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to enhance the disclosure of supplier finance programs. This ASU did not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. We adopted the requirements of this ASU as of January 1, 2023 and have included required disclosures within note 1.

Other accounting pronouncements adopted during the periods covered by the unaudited, consolidated financial statements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Accounting pronouncements issued before, but not effective until after, June 30, 2023, are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or internal controls.

NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of our revenues are from contracts associated with the pickup, transportation and delivery of packages and freight ("transportation services"). These services may be carried out by or arranged by us and generally occur over a short period of time. Additionally, we provide value-added logistics services to customers through our global network of distribution centers and field stocking locations.

The vast majority of our contracts with customers are for transportation services that include only one performance obligation; the transportation services themselves. We generally recognize revenue over time, based on the extent of progress towards completion of the services in the contract. All of our major businesses act as a principal in their revenue arrangements and as such, we report revenue and the associated purchased transportation costs on a gross basis within our statements of consolidated income.

Consolidated revenue	$	22,055	$	24,766	$	44,980	$	49,144

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets include billed and unbilled amounts resulting from in-transit shipments, as we have an unconditional right to payment only when services have been completed (i.e. shipments have been delivered). Amounts do not exceed their net realizable value. Contract assets are generally classified as current and the full balance is converted each quarter based on the short-term nature of the transactions.

Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue as well as deferred revenue. Advance payments and billings in excess of revenue represent payments received from our customers that will be earned over the contract term. Deferred revenue represents the amount due from customers related to in-transit shipments that has not yet been recognized as revenue based on our selected measure of progress. We classify advance payments and billings in excess of revenue as either current or long-term, depending on the period over which the amount will be earned. We classify deferred revenue as current based on the short-term nature of the transactions. Our contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. In order to determine revenue recognized in the period from contract liabilities, we first allocate revenue to the individual contract liability balance outstanding at the beginning of the period until the revenue exceeds that deferred revenue balance.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Contract assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows (in millions):

	Balance Sheet Location	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Contract Assets:
Revenue related to in-transit packages	Other current assets	$	252	$	308
Contract Liabilities:
Short-term advance payments from customers	Other current liabilities	$	12	$	11
Long-term advance payments from customers	Other non-current liabilities	$	25	$	26

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable, net, include amounts billed and currently due from customers. The amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value. Losses on accounts receivable are recognized when reasonable and supportable forecasts affect the expected collectability. This requires us to make our best estimate of the current expected losses inherent in our accounts receivable at each balance sheet date. This estimate requires consideration of historical loss experience, adjusted for current conditions, forward looking indicators, trends in customer payment frequency and judgments about the probable effects of relevant observable data, including present and future economic conditions and the financial health of specific customers and market sectors. Our risk management process includes standards and policies for reviewing major account exposures and concentrations of risk.

Our allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $151 and $146 million, respectively. Amounts for credit losses charged to expense, before recoveries, during each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were $41 and $52 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were $83 and $106 million, respectively.

NOTE 4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We issue share-based awards under various incentive compensation plans, including non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock units ("RSUs") and restricted performance shares and performance units ("RPUs", collectively with RSUs, "Restricted Units"). Upon vesting, Restricted Units result in the issuance of the equivalent number of UPS class A common shares after required tax withholdings. Dividends accrued on Restricted Units are reinvested in additional Restricted Units at each dividend payable date and are subject to the same vesting and forfeiture conditions as the underlying Restricted Units.

Our primary equity compensation programs are the UPS Long-Term Incentive Performance Program (the "LTIP") and the UPS Stock Option program. We also maintain an employee stock purchase plan which allows eligible employees to purchase shares of UPS class A common stock at a discount.

On November 2, 2022, we amended and restated the terms and conditions of the UPS Management Incentive Program (the "MIP") effective January 1, 2023, to provide that awards under the MIP will be fully electable in the form of cash or unrestricted shares of class A common stock.

Pre-tax compensation expense for share-based awards recognized in Compensation and benefits in the statements of consolidated income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $39 and $231 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $165 and $617 million, respectively.

Management Incentive Program

RPUs issued under the MIP prior to 2022 vested one year following the grant date subject to continued employment with the Company and were expensed on a straight-line basis (less estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. In cases of death, disability or retirement, RPUs vested and were expensed immediately.

RPUs issued under the MIP in 2022 vested on December 31, 2022. As a result, the award was classified as a compensation obligation and recorded in Accrued wages and withholdings on the consolidated balance sheet at that date. Based on the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the UPS Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") approval of the 2022 MIP, we determined the award measurement date to be February 8, 2023 for U.S.-based employees and executive management, and March 20, 2023 for international employees. Each RPU issued under the MIP was valued using the closing New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") prices of $186.36 and $183.49 on those dates. The compensation obligation recognized as of December 31, 2022 was relieved and the issuance of RPUs was recorded as Additional Paid-in Capital on the measurement date.

Long-Term Incentive Performance Program

RPUs issued under the LTIP vest at the end of a three-year performance period, subject to continued employment with the Company (except in the case of death, disability or retirement, in which case immediate vesting occurs on a prorated basis). The actual number of RPUs earned is based on achievement of the performance targets established on the grant date.

The performance targets are equally weighted between adjusted earnings per share and cumulative free cash flow. The actual number of RPUs earned is subject to adjustment based on total shareholder return relative to the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ("S&P 500"). We determine the grant date fair value of the RPUs using a Monte Carlo model and recognize compensation expense (less estimated forfeitures) ratably over the vesting period, based on the number of awards expected to be earned.

Based on the Compensation Committee's approval of the 2023 LTIP award performance targets, we determined March 22, 2023 to be the award measurement date and each target RPU awarded was valued at $200.01.

There is no expected dividend yield as units earn dividend equivalents.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

We grant non-qualified stock options to a limited group of eligible senior management employees under the UPS Stock Option program. Stock option awards vest over a five-year period with approximately 20% of the award vesting at each anniversary of the grant date (except in the case of death, disability or retirement, in which case immediate vesting occurs). The option grants expire 10 years after the date of the grant. On March 22, 2023, we granted 0.1 million stock options at an exercise price of $185.54, the NYSE closing price on that date.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used and the weighted-average fair values of options granted in 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

The components of net periodic benefit cost (income) other than current service cost are presented within Investment income and other in the statements of consolidated income.

During the first six months of 2022, we amended the UPS Canada Ltd. Retirement Plan to cease future benefit accruals effective December 31, 2023. We remeasured the plan's assets and benefit obligation, which resulted in a curtailment gain of $33 million ($24 million after-tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The gain is included in Investment income and other in the statement of consolidated income.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we contributed $1.2 billion and $92 million to our company-sponsored pension and U.S. postretirement medical benefit plans, respectively. We expect to contribute approximately $45 and $26 million over the remainder of the year to our pension and U.S. postretirement medical benefit plans, respectively.

Multiemployer Benefit Plans

We contribute to a number of multiemployer defined benefit and health and welfare plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover our union-represented employees. Our current collective bargaining agreements set forth the annual contribution increases allotted to the plans that we participate in, and we are in compliance with these contribution rates. These limitations on annual contribution rates will remain in effect throughout the terms of the existing collective bargaining agreements.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $817 and $821 million, respectively, recorded in Other Non-Current Liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets and $8 million as of each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 recorded in Other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets associated with our previous withdrawal from the New England Teamsters and Trucking Industry Pension Fund. This liability is payable in equal monthly installments over a remaining term of approximately 39 years. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for long-term financing of a similar maturity, the fair value of this withdrawal liability as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $705 and $686 million, respectively. We utilized Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques to determine the fair value of this liability.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

UPS was a contributing employer to the Central States Pension Fund (“CSPF”) until 2007 at which time UPS withdrew from the CSPF. Under a collective bargaining agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (“IBT”), UPS agreed to provide coordinating benefits in the UPS/IBT Full Time Employee Pension Plan (“UPS/IBT Plan”) for UPS participants whose last employer was UPS and who had not retired as of January 1, 2008 (“the UPS Transfer Group”) in the event that benefits are reduced by the CSPF consistent with the terms of our withdrawal agreement with the CSPF. Under this agreement, benefits to the UPS Transfer Group cannot be reduced without our consent and can only be reduced in accordance with law. Subsequent to our withdrawal, the CSPF incurred extensive asset losses and indicated that it was projected to become insolvent. In such event, the CSPF benefits would be reduced to the legally permitted Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") limits, triggering the coordinating benefits provision in the collective bargaining agreement.

In March 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act (“ARPA”) was enacted into law. The ARPA contains provisions that allow for qualifying multiemployer pension plans to apply for special financial assistance ("SFA") from the PBGC, which will be funded by the U.S. government. Following SFA approval, a qualifying multiemployer pension plan will receive a lump sum payment to enable it to continue paying unreduced pension benefits through 2051. The multiemployer plan is not obligated to repay the SFA. The ARPA is intended to prevent both the PBGC and certain financially distressed multiemployer pension plans, including the CSPF, from becoming insolvent through 2051. The CSPF submitted an application for SFA that was approved in December 2022 and, in January 2023, the CSPF received $35.8 billion from the PBGC.

We account for the potential obligation to pay coordinating benefits under ASC Topic 715, which requires us to provide a best estimate of various actuarial assumptions in measuring our pension benefit obligation at the December 31st measurement date. As of December 31, 2022, our best estimate of coordinating benefits that may be required to be paid by the UPS/IBT Plan after SFA funds have been exhausted was immaterial.

The value of our estimate for future coordinating benefits will continue to be influenced by a number of factors, including interpretations of the ARPA, future legislative actions, actuarial assumptions and the ability of the CSPF to sustain its long-term commitments. Actual events may result in a change in our best estimate of the projected benefit obligation. We will continue to assess the impact of these uncertainties in accordance with ASC Topic 715.

Collective Bargaining Agreements

We have more than 300,000 employees in the U.S. employed under a national master agreement and various supplemental agreements with local unions affiliated with the Teamsters. These agreements were scheduled to expire on July 31, 2023. On July 25, 2023, we reached a new tentative national master agreement with the Teamsters. For additional information on these agreements and the ratification process, see note 18. No assurances of the timing of the ratification process can be provided. Customers may further reduce their business or stop doing business with us if they believe that such ratification process or the timing thereof may adversely affect our ability to provide services. In that event, we may permanently lose customers and this could materially adversely affect us. The terms of future collective bargaining agreements also may affect our competitive position and results of operations.

We have approximately 10,000 employees in Canada employed under a collective bargaining agreement with the Teamsters which runs through July 31, 2025.

We have approximately 3,500 pilots who are employed under a collective bargaining agreement with the Independent Pilots Association ("IPA"). This collective bargaining agreement becomes amendable September 1, 2025.

We have approximately 1,800 airline mechanics who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local 2727 which becomes amendable November 1, 2026. In addition, approximately 3,100 of our auto and maintenance mechanics who are not employed under agreements with the Teamsters are employed under collective bargaining agreements with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (“IAM”). The collective bargaining agreement with the IAM runs through July 31, 2024.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023:

•We recorded an increase in goodwill of $8 million, as part of purchase accounting for our November 2022 acquisition of Bomi Group. Certain areas, including our estimates of tax positions, remain preliminary as of June 30, 2023.

•We recorded an immaterial impairment charge related to the closure of a trade management services business within Supply Chain Solutions.

•The remaining movements are due to the impact of changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar on the translation of non-U.S. Dollar goodwill balances.

We complete our annual goodwill impairment evaluation as of July 1st on a reporting unit basis. Our 2022 annual impairment testing indicated that the fair value of goodwill associated with our Roadie reporting unit remained greater than its carrying value, although this excess was less than 10 percent. The goodwill associated with our Roadie reporting unit as of June 30, 2023 was $241 million.

For each of our reporting units and our indefinite-lived trade name, we continue to monitor the combined impact of macroeconomic conditions and business performance on our estimates of fair value. While we do not believe it is more likely than not our reporting unit fair values are less than their respective carrying values as of June 30, 2023, actual reporting unit performance, revisions to our forecasts of reporting unit performance, changes in estimates or assumptions in connection with our annual testing, or a combination thereof could result in an impairment charge in one or more of our reporting units during the third quarter of 2023 or another future period.

A trade name and licenses with carrying values of $200 and $4 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 are deemed to be indefinite-lived intangible assets, and therefore are not amortized. There were no events or changes in circumstances during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that would indicate the carrying amount of our indefinite-lived intangible assets may be impaired as of the date of this report.

Impairment tests for finite-lived intangible assets are performed when a triggering event occurs that may indicate that the carrying value of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. There were no impairment charges for finite-lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Commercial Paper

We are authorized to borrow up to $10.0 billion under a U.S. commercial paper program and €5.0 billion (in a variety of currencies) under a European commercial paper program. As of June 30, 2023, we had no outstanding balances under our commercial paper programs. The amount of commercial paper outstanding under these programs in 2023 is expected to fluctuate.

Debt Classification

We have classified certain floating-rate senior notes that are redeemable at the option of the note holder as long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets, due to our intent and ability to refinance the debt if the put option is exercised.

Debt Repayments

During the first quarter of 2023, we repaid approximately $16 million of foreign-currency-denominated debt assumed in the Bomi Group acquisition.

On April 1, 2023, our 2.500% Senior Notes with a principal balance of $1.0 billion and our floating rate senior notes with a principal balance of $500 million matured and were repaid in full.

Debt Issuances

On February 23, 2023, we issued two series of notes in the principal amounts of $900 million and $1.1 billion. These notes bear interest at 4.875% and 5.050%, respectively, and mature on March 3, 2033 and March 3, 2053, respectively. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually, beginning September 2023. Each series of notes is callable at our option at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount, or the sum of the present values of scheduled payments of principal and interest, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On March 7, 2023, we issued floating rate senior notes with a principal balance of  $529 million. These notes bear interest at a rate equal to the compounded Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") less 0.350% per year and mature on March 15, 2073. These notes are callable at various times after 30 years at a stated percentage of par value and are redeemable at the option of the note holders at various times after one year at a stated percentage of par value.

Reference Rate Reform

Our floating-rate senior notes that mature between 2049 and 2067 bore interest at rates that referenced the London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") for U.S. Dollars. As part of a broader program of reference rate reform, U.S. Dollar LIBOR rates ceased to be published after June 2023. Beginning July 1, 2023, we transitioned these notes to an alternative reference rate, SOFR, which was adopted in accordance with recommendations of the Alternative Reference Rates Committee.

Sources of Credit

We maintain two credit agreements with a consortium of banks. The first of these agreements provides revolving credit facilities of $1.0 billion, and expires on December 5, 2023. Amounts outstanding under this agreement bear interest at a periodic fixed rate equal to the term SOFR rate, plus 0.10% per annum and an applicable margin based on our then-current credit rating. The applicable margin from the credit pricing grid as of June 30, 2023 was 0.70%. Alternatively, a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in the United States; (2) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50%; or (3) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, may be used at our discretion.

The second agreement provides revolving credit facilities of $2.0 billion, and expires on December 7, 2026. Amounts outstanding under this facility bear interest at a periodic fixed rate equal to the term SOFR rate plus 0.10% per annum and an applicable margin based on our then-current credit rating. The applicable margin from the credit pricing grid as of June 30, 2023 was 0.875%. Alternatively, a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in the United States; (2) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50%; or (3) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin, may be used at our discretion.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

If the credit ratings established by Standard & Poor's and Moody's differ, the higher rating will be used, except in cases where the lower rating is two or more levels lower. In these circumstances, the rating one step below the higher rating will be used. We are also able to request advances under these facilities based on competitive bids for the applicable interest rate.

There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities as of June 30, 2023.

Debt Covenants

Our existing debt instruments and credit facilities subject us to certain financial covenants. As of June 30, 2023, and for all prior periods presented, we have satisfied these financial covenants. These covenants limit the amount of secured indebtedness that we may incur, and limit the amount of attributable debt in sale-leaseback transactions, to 10% of net tangible assets. As of June 30, 2023, 10% of net tangible assets was equivalent to $4.9 billion and we had no covered sale-leaseback transactions or secured indebtedness outstanding. We do not expect these covenants to have a material impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

Fair Value of Debt    

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for long-term debt with similar terms and maturities, the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities, was approximately $20.2 and $18.2 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We utilized Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques to determine the fair value of all of our debt instruments.

NOTE 10. LEASES

We have finance and operating leases for real estate (primarily package centers, airport facilities and warehouses), aircraft and engines, information technology equipment, vehicles and various other equipment used in operating our business. Certain leases for real estate and aircraft contain options to purchase, extend or terminate the lease.

Aircraft

In addition to the aircraft that we own, we charter aircraft to handle package and cargo volume on certain international trade lanes and domestic routes. Due to the nature of these agreements, primarily being that either party can cancel the agreement with short notice, we have classified these as short-term leases. A majority of our long-term aircraft operating leases are operated by a third party to handle package and cargo volume in geographic regions where, due to government regulations, we are restricted from operating an airline.

Transportation equipment and other equipment

We enter into both long-term and short-term leases for transportation equipment to supplement our capacity or meet contractual demands. Some of these assets are leased on a month-to-month basis and the leases can be terminated without penalty. We also enter into equipment leases to increase capacity during periods of high demand. These leases are treated as short-term as the cumulative right of use is less than 12 months over the term of the contract.

Some of our transportation and technology equipment leases require us to make additional lease payments based on the underlying usage of the assets. Due to the variable nature of these costs, these are expensed as incurred and are not included in the right of use lease asset and associated lease obligation.

The components of lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,

In addition to the lease costs disclosed in the table above, we monitor all lease categories for any indicators that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. We recognized $13 million of impairments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no material impairments recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2022.

NOTE 11. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are involved in a number of judicial proceedings and other matters arising from the conduct of our business.

Although there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome, we have generally denied, or believe we have meritorious defenses and will deny, liability in all pending matters, including (except as otherwise noted herein) the matters described below, and we intend to vigorously defend each matter. We accrue amounts associated with legal proceedings when and to the extent a loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal proceedings may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts accrued on those claims.

For matters as to which we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of losses, we are not able to determine whether any such loss will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition. For these matters, we have described the reasons that we are unable to estimate a possible loss or range of losses.

Judicial Proceedings

We are a defendant in a number of lawsuits filed in state and federal courts containing various class action allegations under state wage-and-hour laws. At this time, we do not believe that any loss associated with any such matter will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition. One of these matters, Hughes v. UPS Supply Chain Solutions, Inc. and United Parcel Service, Inc. had previously been certified as a class action in Kentucky state court. In the second quarter of 2019, the court granted our motion for judgment on the pleadings related to the wage-and-hour claims. The plaintiffs' appeal of this decision was denied. However, they were granted a discretionary review by the Kentucky Supreme Court. In the first quarter of 2023, the Kentucky Supreme Court ruled in our favor. Plaintiffs have filed a motion for rehearing before the Kentucky Supreme Court.

In July 2023, another matter, Baker v. United Parcel Service, Inc. (DE) and United Parcel Service, Inc. (OH) was certified as a class action in federal court in the Eastern District of Washington. The plaintiff in this matter alleges that UPS violated the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. We are vigorously defending ourselves in this matter and believe that we have a number of meritorious defenses, and there are unresolved questions of law and fact that could be important to the ultimate resolution of this matter. Accordingly, at this time, we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of losses that may result from this matter or to determine whether such loss, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.

Other Matters

In August 2016, Spain’s National Markets and Competition Commission ("CNMC") announced an investigation into 10 companies in the commercial delivery and parcel industry, including UPS, related to alleged nonaggression agreements to allocate customers. In May 2017, we received a Statement of Objections issued by the CNMC. In July 2017, we received a Proposed Decision from the CNMC. In March 2018, the CNMC adopted a final decision, finding an infringement and imposing an immaterial fine on UPS. We appealed the decision. In December 2022, a trial court ruled against us. We have filed an appeal before the Spanish Supreme Court. We are vigorously defending ourselves and believe that we have a number of meritorious defenses. There are also unresolved questions of law that could be important to the ultimate resolution of this matter. We do not believe that any loss from this matter would have a material impact on our operations or financial condition.

We are a party in various other matters that arose in the normal course of business. We do not believe that the eventual resolution of these other matters (either individually or in the aggregate), including any reasonably possible losses in excess of current accruals, will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition.

NOTE 12. SHAREOWNERS' EQUITY

Capital Stock, Additional Paid-In Capital, Retained Earnings and Non-Controlling Minority Interests

We are authorized to issue two classes of common stock, which are distinguished from each other primarily by their respective voting rights. Class A shares of UPS are entitled to 10 votes per share, whereas class B shares are entitled to one vote per share. Class A shares are primarily held by UPS employees and retirees, as well as trusts and descendants of the Company's founders, and these shares are fully convertible into class B shares at any time. Class B shares are publicly traded on the NYSE under the symbol “UPS”. Class A and B shares both have a $0.01 par value, and as of June 30, 2023, there were 4.6 billion class A shares and 5.6 billion class B shares authorized to be issued. Additionally, there are 200 million preferred shares authorized to be issued, with a par value of $0.01 per share. As of June 30, 2023, no preferred shares had been issued.

The following is a rollforward of our common stock, additional paid-in capital, retained earnings and non-controlling minority interests accounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions, except per share amounts):

We repurchased 4.3 and 8.4 million shares of class B common stock for $750 million and $1.5 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. We repurchased 5.5 and 6.7 million shares of class B common stock for $983 million and $1.2 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. These repurchases were completed as follows:

•In August 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $5.0 billion of class A and class B common stock (the "2021 Authorization"). For the six months ended months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 0.5 million shares of class B common stock for $82 million under this authorization. The share repurchases discussed above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, were completed under this authorization.

•In January 2023, the Board of Directors terminated the 2021 Authorization and approved a new share repurchase authorization for $5.0 billion of class A and class B common stock (the "2023 Authorization"). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 4.3 and 7.9 million shares for $750 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, under the 2023 Authorization. As of June 30, 2023, we had $3.6 billion available under this repurchase authorization.

We anticipate our share repurchases will total approximately $3.0 billion in 2023.

28

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Future share repurchases may be in the form of accelerated share repurchase programs, open market purchases or other methods we deem appropriate. The timing of share repurchases will depend upon market conditions. Unless terminated earlier by the Board of Directors, this program will expire when we have purchased all shares authorized for repurchase under the program.

Movements in additional paid-in capital in respect of stock award plans comprise accruals for unvested awards, offset by adjustments for awards that vest during the period.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

We recognize activity in other comprehensive income for foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, unrealized gains and losses from derivatives that qualify as hedges of cash flows and unrecognized pension and postretirement benefit costs.

Deferred Compensation Obligations and Treasury Stock

We maintain a deferred compensation plan whereby certain employees were previously able to elect to defer the gains on stock option exercises by deferring the shares received upon exercise into a rabbi trust. The shares held in this trust are classified as treasury stock, and the liability to participating employees is classified as Deferred compensation obligations within Shareowners’ Equity in the consolidated balance sheets. The number of shares needed to settle the liability for deferred compensation obligations is included in the denominator in both the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. Employees are generally no longer able to defer the gains from stock options exercised.

Activity in the deferred compensation program for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was as follows (in millions):

NOTE 13. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We have two reportable segments: U.S. Domestic Package and International Package, which are together referred to as our global small package operations. Our remaining businesses are reported as Supply Chain Solutions. Global small package operations represent our most significant business and are broken down into regional operations around the world. Regional operations managers are responsible for both domestic and export products within their geographic area. Supply Chain Solutions comprises the results of non-reportable operating segments that do not meet the quantitative and qualitative criteria of a reportable segment as defined under ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting.

U.S. Domestic Package

U.S. Domestic Package operations include the time-definite delivery of letters, documents and packages throughout the United States.

International Package

International Package operations include delivery to more than 220 countries and territories worldwide, including shipments wholly outside the United States, as well as shipments with either origin or destination outside the United States. Our International Package reporting segment includes our operations in Asia, Europe, the Indian sub-continent, the Middle East, Africa, Canada and Latin America.

Supply Chain Solutions

Supply Chain Solutions includes our Forwarding, Logistics, UPS Mail Innovations, Coyote, Healthcare and other businesses. Our Forwarding, Logistics and UPS Mail Innovations businesses provide services in more than 200 countries and territories worldwide and include international air and ocean freight forwarding, customs brokerage, distribution and post-sales services, mail and consulting services. Coyote offers truckload brokerage services primarily in the United States. Our Healthcare businesses provide supply chain solutions to the healthcare and life sciences industries. Other businesses within Supply Chain Solutions include The UPS Store, UPS Capital, Roadie and Delivery Solutions.

In evaluating financial performance, we focus on operating profit as a segment’s measure of profit or loss. Operating profit is before investment income (expense) and other, interest expense and income tax expense. Certain expenses are allocated between the segments using activity-based costing methods. These activity-based costing methods require us to make estimates that impact the amount of each expense category that is attributed to each segment. Changes in these estimates directly impact the amount of expense allocated to each segment, and therefore the operating profit of each reporting segment. Our allocation methodologies are refined periodically, as necessary, to reflect changes in our businesses. There were no significant changes to our allocation methodologies in the second quarter or year-to-date periods.

Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (in millions):

NOTE 15. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Management Policies

Changes in fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations and we actively monitor these exposures. Where deemed appropriate, to manage the impact of these exposures on earnings and/or cash flows, we may enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit Risk Management

The forward contracts, swaps and options discussed below contain an element of risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. We seek to minimize such risk exposures for these instruments by limiting the counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines. We may further manage credit risk through the use of zero threshold bilateral collateral provisions and/or early termination rights utilizing master netting arrangements, whereby cash is exchanged based on the net fair value of derivatives associated with each counterparty.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we held cash collateral of $238 and $534 million, respectively, under these agreements. This collateral is included in Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets and is unrestricted. As of June 30, 2023, we were required to post $1 million with our counterparties. As of December 31, 2022, no collateral was required to be posted with our counterparties.

Types of Hedges

Commodity Risk Management

Currently, the fuel surcharges that we apply in our domestic and international package businesses are the primary means of reducing the risk of adverse fuel price changes on our business. In order to mitigate the impact of fuel surcharges imposed on us by outside carriers, we regularly adjust the rates we charge for our freight brokerage services.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows from our international package business, we maintain a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. Our most significant foreign currency exposures relate to the Euro, British Pound Sterling, Canadian Dollar, Chinese Renminbi and Hong Kong Dollar. We generally designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of anticipated foreign currency denominated revenue.

We may also hedge portions of our anticipated cash settlements of principal and interest on certain foreign currency denominated debt. We generally designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions.

We hedge our net investment in certain foreign operations with foreign currency denominated debt instruments.

Interest Rate Risk Management

We may use a combination of derivative instruments to manage the fixed and floating interest rate mix of our total debt portfolio and related overall cost of borrowing.

We generally designate and account for interest rate swaps that convert fixed-rate interest payments into floating-rate interest payments as fair value hedges of the associated debt instruments. We designate and account for interest rate swaps that convert floating-rate interest payments into fixed-rate interest payments as cash flow hedges of the forecasted payment obligations.

We may periodically hedge the forecasted fixed-coupon interest payments associated with anticipated debt offerings by using forward starting interest rate swaps, interest rate locks or similar derivatives.

Our foreign currency exchange rate, interest rate and investment market price derivatives are largely comprised of over-the-counter derivatives, which are primarily valued using pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, foreign currency exchange rates and investment forward prices; therefore, these derivatives are classified as Level 2.

NOTE 16. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate increased to 23.5% in the second quarter from 22.9% in the same period of 2022 (24.2% year to date compared to 22.3% in 2022). The year-over-year increase was driven by lower excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation, unfavorable changes in jurisdictional earnings mix and uncertain tax positions.

We have recognized liabilities for uncertain tax positions and we reevaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position is audited and ultimately settled. It is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome or the timing of resolution for uncertain tax positions. Items that may cause changes to unrecognized tax benefits include the allowance or disallowance of deductions, the timing of deductions and the allocation of income and expense between tax jurisdictions. These changes could result from the settlement of ongoing litigation, the completion of ongoing examinations, the expiration of the statute of limitations or other unforeseen circumstances. Over the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $186 million.

NOTE 17. TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY COSTS

We are undertaking an enterprise-wide transformation of our organization that includes initiatives, as well as changes in processes and technology, that impact global direct and indirect operating costs. During the quarter, we began implementing staffing adjustment initiatives to reduce our overhead cost and better align direct labor headcount with volumes. As of June 30, 2023, we recorded an accrual for separation costs of $85 million on the consolidated balance sheet. We expect substantially all of these costs will be paid by December 31, 2023.

The table below presents transformation strategy costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 25, 2023, we reached a tentative new national master agreement with the Teamsters that provides us with the flexibility we need to continue to innovate and deliver industry-leading customer service. The economic provisions in the tentative new national master agreement include pay and benefit increases for both our part-time and full-time Teamster employees, as well as workplace enhancements for employees. Subject to ratification by our Teamster-represented employees, the new agreements will be retroactively effective as of August 1, 2023.

As of the date hereof, we cannot provide any assurances as to the timing or certainty of ratification. The Teamsters have indicated publicly, however, that the ratification voting process will conclude by August 22. The failure by Teamster employees to ratify the new national master agreement could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

As the world's premier package delivery company and a leading provider of global supply chain management solutions, we seek to provide industry-leading service to our customers by combining our digital capabilities with our global integrated network. Under our Customer First, People Led, Innovation Driven strategy, we are continuing to invest in our business to improve the customer experience, increase productivity and drive growth in targeted customer segments.

In the second quarter, we continued the global expansion of our Digital Access Program to make it easier for e-commerce platforms and small- and medium-sized businesses ("SMBs") to do business with us. We continued deploying our Smart Package-Smart Facility technology, added to our network of dedicated healthcare distribution facilities and continued to expand our joint venture in India's domestic market.

Macroeconomic headwinds, including persistent global inflation, declines in U.S. manufacturing production and volume diversion resulting from our labor negotiations with the Teamsters, led to a challenging operating environment in the second quarter and year-to-date periods. Internationally, the economic recovery in Asia slowed during the second quarter, while conditions in Europe remained challenging throughout the period.

These factors led to volume declines in our global small package operations for both the quarter and year to date, and we anticipate that they will continue to impact us throughout the remainder of the year.

Notwithstanding the challenging external environment, we managed our network with agility, focused on productivity and controlled cost to deliver operating profit that was in line with our expectations. Additionally, we returned cash to shareowners through dividends and share repurchases and continued to make long-term investments to support our strategy.

On July 25, 2023, we reached a tentative new national master agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. For additional information, see note 18 to the accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

We have two reportable segments: U.S. Domestic Package and International Package. Our remaining businesses are reported as Supply Chain Solutions.

•Average daily package volume and revenue in our global small package operations decreased for the quarter and year to date, with declines in both commercial and residential shipments, primarily as a result of the external conditions and labor-related uncertainties described herein.

•Operating expenses decreased for the quarter and year to date, driven by a reduction in purchased transportation in Supply Chain Solutions and reductions in fuel expense in our small package operations, as well as the impact of our ongoing productivity initiatives.

•Operating profit and operating margin decreased for the quarter and year to date, as revenue declines were greater than operating expense reductions.

•We reported second quarter net income of $2.1 billion and diluted earnings per share of $2.42 per share ($4.0 billion and $4.61 per share, year to date). Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $2.54 per share for the second quarter, which includes the after-tax impacts of transformation strategy costs of $106 million, or $0.12 per diluted share. Year to date, adjusted diluted earnings per share were $4.74 per share, including the after-tax impacts of transformation strategy costs and goodwill impairment charges of $115 million, or $0.13 per diluted share.

In the U.S. Domestic Package segment, revenue declines for the quarter and year to date were driven by lower volume and fuel surcharge revenue. These were somewhat offset by revenue per piece growth due to increases in base rates, improvements in revenue quality and customer mix. Expenses for the quarter and year to date decreased, primarily due to a reduction in hours for union employees, lower management compensation expense, and declines in fuel expense and purchased transportation.

In our International Package segment, revenue declines for the quarter and year to date were driven by lower volume and declines in fuel and demand-related surcharges. Expense decreases for the quarter and year to date were primarily driven by lower fuel expense and purchased transportation as a result of volume declines and lower fuel prices.

In Supply Chain Solutions, revenue decreases for the quarter and year to date were driven by volume and market rate declines in Forwarding that were slightly offset by growth in Logistics, including the impact of the Bomi Group acquisition that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022. Expenses decreased for the quarter and year to date, primarily driven by lower purchased transportation in Forwarding. This was slightly offset by expense increases within Logistics.

Supplemental Information - Items Affecting Comparability

We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") with certain non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our adjusted financial measures do not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted amounts reflect the following (in millions):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,

Transformation Charges, and Goodwill, Asset Impairment and Divestiture Charges

We supplement the presentation of our operating profit, operating margin, income before income taxes, net income and earnings per share with non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of charges related to transformation activities, and goodwill, asset impairment and divestiture charges. We believe excluding the impact of these charges better enables users of our financial statements to view and evaluate underlying business performance from the perspective of management. We do not consider these costs when evaluating the operating performance of our business units, making decisions to allocate resources or in determining incentive compensation awards. For more information regarding transformation activities, see note 17 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements and for goodwill impairment charges, see note 8 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Changes and Hedging Activities

We supplement the reporting of revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit with adjusted measures that exclude the period-over-period impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes and hedging activities. We believe currency-neutral revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit information allows users of our financial statements to understand growth trends in our products and results. We evaluate the performance of International Package and Supply Chain Solutions on this currency-neutral basis.

Currency-neutral revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit are calculated by dividing current period reported U.S. Dollar revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit by the current period average exchange rates to derive current period local currency revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit. The derived amounts are then multiplied by the average foreign currency exchange rates used to translate the comparable results for each month in the prior year period (including the period-over-period impact of foreign currency hedging activities). The difference between the current period reported U.S. Dollar revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit and the derived current period U.S. Dollar revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit is the period-over-period impact of currency fluctuations.

Defined Benefit Plan Gains and Losses

We incur certain employment-related expenses associated with pension and postretirement medical benefits. These pension and postretirement medical benefits costs for company-sponsored defined benefit plans are calculated using various actuarial assumptions and methodologies, including discount rates, expected returns on plan assets, healthcare cost trend rates, inflation, compensation increase rates, mortality rates and coordination of benefits with plans not sponsored by UPS. Actuarial assumptions are reviewed on an annual basis, unless circumstances require an interim remeasurement of any of our plans.

We recognize changes in the fair value of plan assets and net actuarial gains and losses in excess of a 10% corridor (defined as 10% of the greater of the fair value of plan assets or the plan's projected benefit obligation), as well as gains and losses resulting from plan curtailments and settlements, for our pension and postretirement defined benefit plans immediately as part of Investment income and other in the statements of consolidated income. We supplement the presentation of our income before income taxes, net income and earnings per share with adjusted measures that exclude the impact of these gains and losses and the related income tax effects. We believe excluding these defined benefit plan gains and losses provides important supplemental information by removing the volatility associated with plan amendments and short-term changes in market interest rates, equity values and similar factors.

During the first quarter of 2022, we amended the UPS Canada Ltd. Retirement Plan to cease future benefit accruals effective December 31, 2023. As a result, we remeasured the plan's assets and benefit obligation resulting in a curtailment gain of $33 million ($24 million after-tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Results of Operations - Segment Review

The results and discussions that follow are reflective of how management monitors and evaluates the performance of our segments as defined in note 13 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

Certain operating expenses are allocated between our reporting segments using activity-based costing methods. These activity-based costing methods require us to make estimates that impact the amount of each expense category that is attributed to each segment. Changes in these estimates directly impact the amount of expense allocated to each segment and therefore the operating profit of each reporting segment. Our allocation methodologies are refined periodically, as necessary, to reflect changes in our businesses. There were no significant changes to our allocation methodologies in the second quarter or year-to-date periods.

As a normal part of managing of our air network, we routinely idle aircraft and engines temporarily for maintenance or to adjust network capacity. As a result of the reduction in volumes experienced in the first half of 2023, we have identified additional opportunities to temporarily idle aircraft within our network in order to better match capacity with current demand. Temporarily idled assets are classified as held-and-used, and we continue to record depreciation expense for these assets. As of June 30, 2023, we had four aircraft temporarily idled for an average period of approximately four months. We expect these aircraft to return to revenue service.

We test goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually at July 1st and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value thereof may be impaired. Testing goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment requires that we make a number of significant assumptions, including assumptions related to future revenues, costs, capital expenditures, working capital, our cost of capital and market comparables. We are also required to make assumptions relating to our overall business and operating strategy, and the regulatory and market environment.

Our business has been negatively impacted by macroeconomic conditions, including rising interest rates and inflationary pressures, that have reduced demand for our services. While we do not believe it is more likely than not that our reporting units’ fair values are less than their carrying values as of June 30, 2023, if challenging macroeconomic conditions persist, then these or other factors, including market comparables, may negatively impact certain estimates and assumptions that we use in developing our reporting units' fair values. Such impacts may be more pronounced for reporting units whose fair values do not significantly exceed their carrying values. Within our consolidated goodwill balance of $4.3 billion, certain reporting units within Supply Chain Solutions, including Roadie, whose fair value exceeded their carrying value by less than 10 percent as of the most recent valuation, represented approximately $300 million.

Actual reporting unit performance, revisions to our forecasts of reporting unit performance, changes in estimates or assumptions in connection with our annual testing, or a combination thereof could result in an impairment charge in one or more of our reporting units during the third quarter of 2023 or another future period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Volume

Average daily volume decreased in the second quarter and year to date, with reductions in both residential and commercial shipments. In both periods, challenging external conditions, including persistent inflation, declines in U.S. manufacturing production and changes in consumer spending contributed to overall volume declines. During the second quarter, volume was also negatively impacted by uncertainty around the results of our labor negotiations with the Teamsters. We expect average daily volume to increase in the second half of 2023 compared to the first half of the year, and the year-over-year decline in average daily volume to be lower in the second half than in the first half.

Business-to-consumer shipments declined 11.5% in the second quarter (down 8.5% year to date), primarily due to a reduction in discretionary consumer spending as a result of the headwinds discussed above, as well as the impact of our labor negotiations with the Teamsters. For both the quarter and year to date, residential volume declines from SMBs were lower than from our large customers, which was partially due to continued growth in our Digital Access Program. Volume from our largest customer declined for both the second quarter and year to date as planned under our contract terms.

Business-to-business shipments declined 7.7% (down 6.5% year to date) primarily as a result of declines across multiple industry sectors that are sensitive to the factors discussed above. Uncertainty around our labor contract also negatively impacted volume in the second quarter. Returns volume remained relatively flat for the second quarter, but increased year to date.

Within our Air products, average daily volume decreased across all customer segments for both the quarter and year to date. These declines resulted primarily from continued execution under the contract terms with our largest customer and from other customers making cost trade offs and utilizing the enhanced speed in our ground network.

Ground residential and Ground commercial average daily volume decreases of 9.6% and 7.3%, respectively, for the quarter (down 5.8% and 5.7%, respectively, year to date), were primarily attributable to volume declines from a number of our large customers due to the economic factors discussed above.

Rates and Product Mix

Air and Ground rates increased an average of 6.9% in December 2022. Revenue per piece from our Air and Ground products increased for the quarter and year to date, resulting from base rate increases and additional pricing actions, as well as favorable changes in customer mix. For both the quarter and year to date, these increases were partially offset by the shift in product mix. For the quarter, a decline in fuel surcharges also negatively impacted revenue per piece.

We anticipate the year-over-year revenue per piece growth rate will moderate during the second half of the year, primarily driven by further anticipated declines in fuel surcharge revenue.

Fuel Surcharges

We apply a fuel surcharge on our domestic air and ground services that adjusts weekly. Our air fuel surcharge is based on the U.S. Department of Energy's ("DOE") Gulf Coast spot price for a gallon of kerosene-type fuel, and our ground fuel surcharge is based on the DOE's On-Highway Diesel Fuel price.

Fuel surcharge revenue decreased $471 million for the quarter, driven by reductions in price per gallon and the impact of lower volume. Year to date, fuel surcharge revenue decreased $265 million, as higher prices per gallon and the impacts of our pricing initiatives in the first quarter were more than offset by the second-quarter declines discussed above. Based on the current commodity market outlook, we expect a continued year-over-year reduction in fuel surcharge revenue for the remainder of 2023.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses and adjusted operating expenses decreased for both the quarter and year to date. Our pickup and delivery costs decreased $308 million in the second quarter (down $269 million year to date), the costs of operating our integrated air and ground network decreased $536 million in the second quarter (down $586 million year to date) and our package sorting costs decreased $86 million in the second quarter (down $110 million year to date). These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $41 million in other indirect operating costs in the second quarter (up $156 million year to date). The overall decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to:

•Lower compensation expense for both the quarter and year-to-date periods due to a reduction in direct union labor hours resulting from volume declines, as well as incentive compensation program design changes. These decreases were partially offset by contractual rate increases and cost of living adjustments for our union workforce.

•Lower employee benefits expense for our union workforce in the second quarter as service costs for our company-sponsored pension and postretirement plans decreased, driven by increases in the discount rates used to measure the projected benefit obligations of these plans.

•A reduction in purchased transportation costs for both the quarter and year to date, resulting from lower overall volumes and a reduction in ground volume handled by third-party carriers, as well as the impact of continued strategic productivity initiatives.

•Lower fuel expense driven by lower volume and decreases in the price of jet fuel, diesel and gasoline during the second quarter.

Total cost per piece increased 4.2% for the quarter (up 5.1% year to date), and adjusted cost per piece increased 3.7% for the quarter (up 5.0% year to date), for the reasons described above. We anticipate the cost per piece growth rate for the second half of 2023 will be consistent with that of the first half of the year, as increased costs arising from the tentative new national master agreement with the Teamsters are expected to be largely offset by the impacts of average daily volume increases, network improvements and productivity initiatives, as well as reductions in fuel cost.

Operating Profit and Margin

As a result of the factors described above, operating profit decreased $227 million in the second quarter (down $423 million year to date), with operating margin decreasing 70 basis points to 11.1% (down 100 basis points to 10.4% year to date). Adjusted operating profit decreased $174 million in the second quarter (down $391 million year to date), with adjusted operating margin decreasing 30 basis points to 11.7% (down 80 basis points to 10.8% year to date).

Volume

Average daily volume decreased for the second quarter and year to date for both domestic and export products. Volume from both large customers and SMBs declined, driven by declines from the retail and technology sectors. Business-to-consumer volume decreased 10.4% for the second quarter (down 9.1% year to date) as global macroeconomic headwinds, including high interest rates and persistent inflation, continued to impact consumer demand. These factors also negatively impacted business-to-business volume, which decreased 5.1% for the second quarter (down 5.4% year to date). We anticipate similar year-over-year declines in average daily volume during the second half of 2023.

Export volume decreased for the quarter and year to date, driven by declines in intra-Europe and Asia activity. Declines on intra-Europe trade lanes were primarily due to lower consumer spending as a result of economic conditions. Asia volume declines were highest on the Asia to U.S. and intra-Asia trade lanes, driven by the impact of overall economic conditions. The Asia to U.S. trade lane was also negatively impacted by rising inventory levels in the United States.

Our premium products saw volume decline 11.9% for the second quarter (down 9.3% year to date), primarily in our Worldwide and Transborder Express Saver products. Volume in our non-premium products decreased 0.8% for the second quarter (down 1.0% year to date), driven by declines in Transborder Standard and Worldwide Expedited. These declines were largely driven by economic conditions. Additionally, weaker import demand from U.S. consumers further impacted our Worldwide products.

The challenging economic conditions also impacted Domestic volume, which declined for both the second quarter and year to date, driven by declines in Germany and Canada.

Rates and Product Mix

In December 2022, we implemented an average 6.9% net increase in base and accessorial rates for international shipments originating in the United States. Rate changes for shipments originating outside the U.S. are made throughout the year and vary by geographic market.

Total revenue per piece decreased 5.7% for the quarter (down 2.8% year to date), primarily due to declines in fuel and demand-related surcharges and volume reductions in our Worldwide products out of Asia. The impact of these factors were slightly offset by the impact of base rate increases. Excluding the impact of currency, revenue per piece decreased 4.9% in the quarter (down 0.7% year to date). For the second half of the year, we anticipate overall revenue per piece to be consistent with the same period last year.

Export revenue per piece decreased 8.7% for the quarter (down 6.0% year to date), driven by the impact from the decline in our Worldwide products. Excluding the impact of currency, export revenue per piece decreased 8.1% in the quarter (down 4.3% year to date).

Domestic revenue per piece increased 0.8% for the quarter (up 2.0% year to date), primarily due to the impact of base rate increases and favorable shifts in customer mix. This was largely offset by unfavorable currency movements. Excluding the impact of currency, domestic revenue per piece increased 2.1% for the quarter (up 6.3% year to date).

Fuel Surcharges

The fuel surcharge we apply to international air services originating inside or outside the U.S. is largely indexed to the DOE's Gulf Coast spot price for a gallon of kerosene-type jet fuel. The fuel surcharges for ground services originating outside the U.S. are indexed to fuel prices in the region or country where the shipment originates.

During the quarter, total international fuel surcharge revenue decreased $322 million (down $294 million year to date), primarily driven by a decrease in price per gallon as well as the impact from volume declines. Based on the current commodity market outlook, we expect fuel surcharge revenue will remain stable for the remainder of the year.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, and adjusted operating expenses, decreased for both the second quarter and year to date. The principal drivers were:

•The costs of operating our integrated international air and ground network decreased $343 million for the quarter (down $317 million year to date), primarily driven by lower fuel prices and a reduction in aircraft block hours. We anticipate the price paid for fuel will remain stable throughout the remainder of the year.

•Pickup and delivery costs decreased $17 million for the quarter (down $38 million year to date) due to the lower volume levels.

Operating Profit and Margin

As a result of the factors described above, operating profit decreased $310 million for the second quarter (down $598 million year to date), with operating margin decreasing 350 basis points to 20.0% for the second quarter (down 410 basis points to 19.1% year to date). Adjusted operating profit decreased $302 million for the second quarter (down $616 million year to date), while adjusted operating margin decreased 330 basis points to 20.4% for the second quarter (down 430 basis points to 19.1% year to date).

Substantially all of our operations in Russia and Belarus were suspended in March 2022 and, during 2023, we have commenced liquidation of our Small Package and Forwarding and Logistics subsidiaries in these countries. Substantially all of our operations in Ukraine remain indefinitely suspended. These actions have not had, and are not expected to have, a material impact on us.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

Total revenue in Supply Chain Solutions decreased for both the second quarter and year to date. This was driven by declines in our Forwarding business as challenging economic conditions drove declines in customer activity, while increased capacity led to lower market rates.

•International airfreight revenue decreased approximately $365 million for the quarter (down $785 million year to date) as customer demand remained weak, particularly on Asia export lanes, and capacity growth continued to outpace demand. These factors drove down the rates we charge for services in both the quarter and year-to-date periods and we anticipate that they will continue to pressure rates through the second half of the year.

•Revenue in our truckload brokerage business decreased $372 million for the quarter (down $775 million year to date) due to lower volume and a continued decline in market rates. We remained focused on our revenue quality initiatives and experienced volume growth from SMBs during the second quarter and year-to-date periods.

•The remaining reduction in revenue, for both the quarter and year to date, was attributable to our ocean freight forwarding business. Market rates and volume declined in both periods, particularly on the Asia to U.S. lane, due to lower demand, an increase in inventory levels and additional capacity entering the market. We expect revenue to remain challenged in the second half of 2023 as capacity increases are expected to continue to outpace demand.

Within our Logistics businesses, healthcare logistics revenue increased $106 million for the second quarter (up $204 million year to date), primarily due to the impact from the acquisition of Bomi Group in the fourth quarter of 2022, as well as growth in our clinical trials business for the year. Revenue in mail services increased $48 million for the quarter (up $103 million year to date) as a result of volume growth, rate increases and a favorable shift in product characteristics. The growth in healthcare and mail services was slightly offset by declines in our other distribution operations for both the second quarter and year to date.

Revenue from the other businesses within Supply Chain Solutions decreased for the quarter and year to date, driven by an expected reduction of $130 million (down $215 million year to date) in transition services provided to the acquirer of UPS Freight as we continue to wind down these arrangements. This was partially offset by higher revenue from our digital businesses for both the second quarter and year to date, driven by business growth.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses and total adjusted operating expenses for Supply Chain Solutions decreased for the quarter and year to date.

Forwarding operating expenses decreased $832 million for the quarter (down $1.7 billion year to date). This primarily resulted from a reduction of approximately $785 million in purchased transportation expense for the quarter (down $1.6 billion year to date) due to lower volumes and market rates across our forwarding businesses. We expect these conditions to persist as we move through the second half of the year, resulting in lower purchased transportation costs.

Logistics operating expenses increased $112 million for the quarter (up $267 million year to date), driven by the impact of acquiring Bomi Group. Mail services incurred higher purchased transportation cost in both periods due to volume and rate increases and shifts in product characteristics.

Expenses in the other businesses within Supply Chain Solutions decreased for both the quarter and year to date, largely driven by a reduction in costs incurred to procure transportation for, and provide transition services to, the acquirer of UPS Freight. This was partially offset by higher operating costs within our digital businesses, driven by year-over-year business growth.

Operating Profit and Margin

As a result of the factors described above, total operating profit decreased $218 million for the second quarter (down $444 million year to date) with operating margin decreasing 300 basis points to 9.1% for the second quarter (down 320 basis points to 8.2% year to date). On an adjusted basis, operating profit decreased $181 million for the second quarter (down $404 million year to date), with adjusted operating margin decreasing 180 basis points to 10.4% for the second quarter (down 270 basis points to 8.9% year to date).

Compensation and Benefits

Total compensation and benefits and adjusted total compensation and benefits decreased for the second quarter and year to date. Compensation costs decreased $201 million for the second quarter (down $379 million year to date). On an adjusted basis, compensation costs decreased $197 million for the second quarter (down $365 million year to date). The principal factors impacting the decreases were:

•Management compensation decreased $112 million for the second quarter (down $318 million year to date), driven by fourth quarter 2022 design changes to our incentive compensation programs, lower incentive compensation accruals and lower overall headcount.

•U.S. Domestic labor costs decreased $102 million for the second quarter (down $56 million year to date) primarily due to a reduction in direct labor hours resulting from volume declines and reductions in administrative labor. The decrease was partially offset by contractual wage rate increases and cost of living adjustments for our union workforce.

•The acquisition of Bomi Group in the fourth quarter of 2022 resulted in additional compensation cost of $27 million for the second quarter ($51 million year to date).

Benefits costs increased $54 million for the second quarter (up $93 million year to date). On an adjusted basis, benefits costs decreased $36 million for the second quarter (up $38 million year to date). The principal factors impacting the changes were:

•Health and welfare costs increased $46 million for the second quarter (up $135 million year to date), driven by increased contributions to multiemployer plans as a result of contractually-mandated rate increases.

•Workers' compensation expense increased $13 million for the second quarter (up $36 million year to date), driven by an increase in current year claims, partially offset by a decrease in overall hours worked and favorable developments in reserves for prior years' claims.

•Pension and other postretirement benefits costs decreased $75 million for the second quarter ($123 million year to date):

◦The cost of company-sponsored defined benefit plans decreased $109 million for the second quarter (down $219 million year to date), driven by a reduction in service cost due to higher discount rates. The cessation of accruals for future service in the UPS Retirement Plan was offset by the cost of replacement contributions to the UPS 401(k) Savings Plan.

◦Contributions to multiemployer plans increased $25 million for the second quarter (up $64 million year to date) as the impact of contractually-mandated contribution increases was partially offset by a reduction in eligible headcount.

◦Year to date, expense for the UPS 401(k) Savings Plan increased $18 million, primarily due to demographic changes.

•Other benefits, primarily costs related to employee separations, increased $89 million for the second quarter (up $55 million year to date) as we implemented staffing adjustment initiatives to reduce our overhead cost and better align direct labor headcount with volume.

Repairs and Maintenance

The decrease in repairs and maintenance expense for the second quarter and year-to-date periods was primarily due to the deferral of aircraft engine maintenance, as the declines in volume resulted in the temporary idling of certain aircraft.

Depreciation and Amortization

We incurred higher depreciation expense during the second quarter and year-to-date periods as a result of additional facilities coming into service, growth in the size of our vehicle and aircraft fleets and the reduction in estimated residual value of our MD-11 aircraft. We incurred higher amortization expense on capitalized software investments in support of our strategic initiatives, as well as amortization expense for intangible assets recognized in connection with the acquisition of Bomi Group.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Purchased Transportation

Third-party transportation expense charged to us by air, ocean and ground carriers decreased for the quarter and year-to-date periods. The changes were primarily driven by:

•Supply Chain Solutions expense decreased $851 million for the second quarter (down $1.7 billion year to date), driven by volume declines and lower market rates paid for services in our Forwarding businesses. This was slightly offset by increases in our logistics operations due to business growth, third-party rate increases in our mail services business and the acquisition of Bomi Group.

•U.S. Domestic expense decreased $243 million for the second quarter (down $337 million year to date), driven by a reduction in ground volume handled by third-party carriers as a result of our network optimization initiatives.

•International Package expense decreased $123 million for the second quarter (down $198 million year to date), primarily due to declines in volume.

Fuel

The decrease in fuel expense for the quarter and year to date was primarily driven by lower prices for jet fuel, diesel and gasoline, as well as the impact of lower volume. Market prices and the manner in which we purchase fuel influence our costs. The majority of our fuel purchases utilize index-based pricing formulas plus or minus a fixed locational/supplier differential. While many of the indices are correlated, each index may respond differently to changes in underlying prices, which in turn can drive variability in our costs.

Other Occupancy

Other occupancy expense increased for the quarter and year to date as a result of additional operating facilities coming into service, increases in rental rates and higher utilities costs. We expect inflation may continue to adversely impact these costs for the remainder of the year.

Other Expenses

Other expenses and adjusted other expenses decreased for the quarter but increased year to date. The decrease for the quarter was primarily the result of:

•Reductions of $33 million in vehicle leases and $18 million in operational supplies due to the decline in volumes.

•Lower costs incurred under the transitional service agreements with the acquirer of UPS Freight.

•A decrease in self-insured automobile liability expense of $14 million.

Other decreases for the quarter were primarily attributable to the impact of lower volumes. The decreases were partially offset by increases in the following expenses:

•Hosted software application fees and other technology costs increased $30 million in support of ongoing investments in our digital transformation.

•Outsourcing and professional fees increased $29 million due to increased utilization of third-party services to support our business initiatives.

For the year-to-date period, the increase was driven by hosted software application fees and outsourcing and professional fees for the reasons discussed above. An increase in commissions paid for certain online shipments also contributed to the increase.

Investment Income and Other

Investment income and other decreased $202 and $348 million for the second quarter and year to date, respectively. Excluding the impact of a $33 million defined benefit plan curtailment gain that we recognized in the first quarter of 2022, adjusted investment income and other decreased $315 million year to date. These decreases were primarily due to a reduction in other pension income and foreign currency losses, partially offset by higher yields on invested balances and changes in the fair value of certain non-current investments.

Other pension income decreased $232 million for the quarter (down $464 million year to date) due to:

•Lower expected returns on pension assets for the quarter and year to date as a result of a lower asset base due to losses in 2022, partially offset by an increase in our rate of return assumption.

•Higher pension interest cost for the quarter and year to date due to higher discount rates and changes in demographic assumptions.

Interest expense increased for the quarter and year-to-date periods, driven by higher effective interest rates on floating rate debt and an increase in our total debt. These impacts were partially offset by an increase in capitalized interest.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We deploy a disciplined and balanced approach to capital allocation, including returns to shareowners through dividends and share repurchases. As of June 30, 2023, we had $7.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We believe that these positions, expected cash from operations, access to commercial paper programs and capital markets and other available liquidity options will be adequate to fund our material short- and long-term cash requirements, including our business operations, planned capital expenditures and pension contributions, transformation strategy costs, debt obligations and planned shareowner returns. We regularly evaluate opportunities to optimize our capital structure, including through issuances of debt to refinance existing debt and to fund operations.

Net cash from operating activities decreased $2.7 billion for the 2023 period, impacted by:

•The timing of contributions to our company-sponsored, defined benefit pension and postretirement medical plans. We made discretionary contributions of $1.2 billion to our qualified U.S. pension plans during the six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no discretionary contributions to these plans in the comparative period.

•A decrease in our net hedge margin collateral position due to changes in the fair value of derivative contracts used in our currency hedging programs.

•Our working capital benefited from an improvement in collections, partially offset by an increase in vendor payments. The reduction in volumes also reduced our overall working capital requirements, and we benefited from the timing of payroll and other compensation-related items relative to the comparative period.

•During the first six months of 2023, we paid the remaining $323 million of employer payroll taxes that were deferred under the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery and Economic Security (CARES) Act in 2020.

As of June 30, 2023, approximately $2.8 billion of our total worldwide holdings of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were held by foreign subsidiaries. The amount of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities held by our U.S. and foreign subsidiaries fluctuates throughout the year due to a variety of factors, including the timing of cash receipts and disbursements in the normal course of business. Cash provided by operating activities in the U.S. continues to be our primary source of funds to finance domestic operating needs, capital expenditures, share repurchases, pension contributions and dividend payments to shareowners. All cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities held by foreign subsidiaries are generally available for distribution to the U.S. without any U.S. federal income taxes. Any such distributions may be subject to foreign withholding and U.S. state taxes. When amounts earned by foreign subsidiaries are expected to be indefinitely reinvested, no accrual for taxes is provided. We did not have any restricted cash as of June 30, 2023 or 2022.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

Our primary sources (uses) of cash from investing activities were as follows (in millions):

	Six Months Ended June 30,

Net cash used in investing activities	$	(2,859)		$	(1,499)
Capital Expenditures:

Acquisitions, net of cash acquired	$	(34)		$	(99)
Other investing activities	$	12		$	(19)

(1) In addition to capital expenditures of $1.8 and $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, there were principal repayments of finance lease obligations of $79 and $105 million, respectively. These are included in cash flows from financing activities.

We have commitments for the purchase of aircraft, vehicles, equipment and real estate to provide for the replacement of existing capacity and anticipated future growth. Future capital spending for anticipated growth and replacement assets will depend on a variety of factors, including economic and industry conditions. Our 2023 investment program anticipates investments in technology initiatives and enhanced network capabilities, including approximately $1.0 billion of projects to support our environmental sustainability goals. It also provides for the maintenance of buildings, facilities and equipment and replacement of certain aircraft within our fleet. We currently expect that our capital expenditures will total approximately $5.3 billion in 2023, of which approximately 50 percent will be allocated to strategic expansion projects.

For the first six months of 2023 compared to 2022, total capital expenditures increased, primarily due to:

•Spending on buildings, facilities and plant equipment increased due to facility maintenance and capacity expansion projects.

•Vehicle expenditures increased, driven by the timing and availability of vehicle replacements and continuing investments in our network.

•Information technology expenditures increased as a result of continuing investments in our digital capabilities and network automation.

•Aircraft expenditures decreased due to the timing of payments associated with open aircraft orders.

Proceeds from the disposal of businesses, property, plant and equipment were higher relative to the comparative period as we sold surplus real estate properties during the second quarter of 2023.

Net purchases of marketable securities increased due to a continued shift to longer duration investments.

Cash paid for acquisitions in the 2023 period represents the purchase of development areas for The UPS Store. In 2022, this also included our acquisition of Delivery Solutions in the second quarter. Other investing activities were impacted by changes in our non-current investments, purchase contract deposits and various other immaterial items.

We repurchased 8.4 and 6.7 million shares of class B common stock for $1.5 and $1.2 billion under our stock repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We anticipate our share repurchases will total approximately $3.0 billion in 2023. For additional information on our share repurchase activities, see note 12 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of the Board and depends on various factors, including our net income, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other relevant factors. We increased our quarterly cash dividend to $1.62 per share in 2023, compared to $1.52 in 2022. On August 3, 2023, the Board approved a dividend of $1.62 per share, which is payable on August 31, 2023, to shareowners of record on August 14, 2023.

Issuances of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted of fixed- and floating-rate senior notes of varying maturities totaling $2.5 billion. We used proceeds from these debt issuances to repay $1.5 billion of fixed- and floating-rate senior notes during the second quarter and we expect to use substantially all of the remaining proceeds to repay additional outstanding debt at maturity during the second half of the year.

There were no issuances of debt in the six months ended June 30, 2022. Repayments of debt in 2022 included fixed- and floating-rate senior notes of varying maturities totaling $1.0 billion and scheduled principal payments on our finance lease obligations.

As of June 30, 2023, we had $763 million of fixed-rate senior notes outstanding that mature in 2023. We consider the overall fixed and floating interest rate mix of our portfolio and the related overall cost of borrowing when planning for future issuances and non-scheduled repayments of debt.

The variation in cash received from common stock issuances primarily resulted from activity within the UPS 401(k) Savings Plan and our employee stock purchase plan in both the current and comparative period.

Other financing activities includes cash used to repurchase shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations on vested employee stock awards. Cash outflows for this purpose were $395 and $512 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease was driven by changes in required repurchase amounts.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, we do not have guarantees or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including variable interest entities, which we believe could have a material impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

On May 31, 2023 we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement for $250 million. The transaction commenced on July 7, 2023 and completed on July 31, 2023.

For additional information on 2023 debt issuances, see note 9 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in certain commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices. All of these market risks arise in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative trading activities. In order to manage the risk arising from these exposures, we may utilize a variety of commodity, foreign currency exchange and interest rate forward contracts, options and swaps. A discussion of our accounting policies for derivative instruments and further disclosures are provided in note 15 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements.

The total net fair value asset (liability) of our derivative financial instruments is summarized in the following table (in millions):

	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Currency Derivatives	$	188	$	398
Interest Rate Derivatives	(5)		(5)
	$	183	$	393

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no outstanding commodity hedge positions.

The information concerning market risk in Item 7A under the caption "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 is incorporated herein by reference.

Our market risks, hedging strategies and financial instrument positions as of June 30, 2023 have not materially changed from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into foreign currency exchange forward contracts on the Euro, British Pound Sterling, and Canadian Dollar, and had forward contracts expire. The fair value changes between December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023 in the preceding table are primarily due to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between those dates.

The foreign currency exchange forward contracts, swaps and options previously discussed contain an element of risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements; however, we seek to minimize such risk exposures for these instruments by limiting the counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines and by monitoring counterparty credit risk to prevent concentrations of credit risk with any single counterparty.

We have agreements with all of our active counterparties (covering all of our derivative positions) containing early termination rights and/or zero threshold bilateral collateral provisions whereby cash is required based on the net fair value of derivatives associated with those counterparties. Events such as a credit rating downgrade (depending on the ultimate rating level) could also allow us to take additional protective measures such as the early termination of trades. As of June 30, 2023, we held cash collateral of $238 million and were required to post $1 million with our counterparties under these agreements. We have not historically incurred, and do not expect to incur in the future, any losses as a result of counterparty default.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act")). Based upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

For a discussion of material legal proceedings affecting the Company, see note 11 to the unaudited, consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in Part 1, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The occurrence of any of the risks described therein could materially affect us, including impacting our business, financial condition, results of operations, stock price or credit rating, as well as our reputation. These risks are not the only ones we face. We could also be materially adversely affected by other events, factors or uncertainties that are unknown to us, or that we do not currently consider to be material.

We repurchased 4.3 and 8.4 million shares of class B common stock for $750 million and $1.5 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. These repurchases were completed as follows:

•In August 2021, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization of $5.0 billion of class A and class B common stock (the "2021 Authorization"). During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 0.5 million shares of class B common stock for $82 million under this authorization.

•In January 2023, the Board of Directors terminated the 2021 Authorization and approved a new share repurchase authorization of $5.0 billion for class A and class B common stock. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 4.3 and 7.9 million shares of class B common stock for $750 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, under this authorization.

We anticipate repurchasing approximately $3.0 billion in shares in 2023.

Item 5.      Other Information

Disclosures Required Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

The Company maintains robust economic sanctions compliance procedures designed to promote compliance with applicable sanctions laws. However, it is possible that from time to time the Company may inadvertently pick up packages from, or deliver packages to, individuals or entities that result in required disclosure under Section 13(r).

Between January 12, 2022 and the date of this filing, the Company inadvertently delivered to: the Iranian embassy in Germany (foil paper - revenue of $5.75, no profit); Ascotec – 2 shipments delivered (alarm device - revenue of $8.88, no profit); Bank Melli (toner cartridge - revenue of $5.92, no profit); Bank Saderat (printer toner - revenue of $4.45, no profit); the Iranian embassy in the U.K. (batteries - revenue of $3.77, no profit); Bank Sepah (document - revenue of $22.08, profit of $8.36); Europaisch Iranische Handelsbank (documents - revenue of $5.11, no profit); and Ibrahim Buisir (documents - revenue of $9.88, no profit). During this time the Company also delivered a single shipment from Iran Air (toner cartridge - revenue of $4.80, no profit).

UPS does not intend to further pick up from or deliver to these parties, and intends to continue to implement process improvements designed to better identify and prevent potential shipments to or from restricted parties.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited, consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The results reported in these unaudited, consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any other period or the entire year. The unaudited, consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited, consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In the first six months of 2023, we reclassified certain operating expenses to better align with the manner in which we manage our operations. Substantially all of these costs were previously classified within operating expenses as Other expenses and have now been classified within operating expenses as Repairs and maintenance in the statements of consolidated income. The remaining line items within operating expenses impacted by this reclassification were inconsequential. As a result, the statements of consolidated income give effect to this reclassification as follows:

•For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023: decreasing Other expenses by $92 and $180 million, and increasing Repairs and maintenance by $93 and $176 million, respectively.

•For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022: decreasing Other expenses by $77 and $154 million, and increasing Repairs and maintenance by $84 and $159 million, respectively.

The reclassification had no impact on our reported revenue, operating profit, net income, or any internal performance measure on which management is compensated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance receivables and accounts payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The fair values of our marketable securities are disclosed in note 5, our recognized multiemployer pension withdrawal liabilities in note 7, our short- and long-term debt in note 9 and our derivative instruments in note 15. We apply a fair value hierarchy (Levels 1, 2 and 3) when measuring and reporting items at fair value. Fair values are based on listed market prices (Level 1), when such prices are available. To the extent that listed market prices are not available, fair value is determined based on other relevant factors, including dealer price quotations (Level 2). If listed market prices or other relevant factors are not available, inputs are developed from unobservable data reflecting our own assumptions and include situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability (Level 3).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of these financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Although our estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from our expectations, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial position. As a result, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change significantly over time.

Supplier Finance Programs

As part of our working capital management, certain financial institutions offer a Supply Chain Finance ("SCF") program to certain of our suppliers. We agree to commercial terms with our suppliers, including prices, quantities and payment terms, regardless of whether the supplier elects to participate in the SCF program. Suppliers issue invoices to us based on the agreed-upon contractual terms. If they participate in the SCF program, our suppliers, at their sole discretion, determine which invoices, if any, to sell to the financial institutions. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the SCF program has no bearing on our payment terms. No guarantees are provided by us under the SCF program. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate, and we have no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions, as it relates to the SCF program.

Amounts due to our suppliers that participate in the SCF program are included in Accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheets. We have been informed by the participating financial institutions that as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, suppliers sold them $807 and $806 million, respectively, of our outstanding payment obligations.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to enhance the disclosure of supplier finance programs. This ASU did not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. We adopted the requirements of this ASU as of January 1, 2023 and have included required disclosures within note 1.

Other accounting pronouncements adopted during the periods covered by the unaudited, consolidated financial statements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Accounting pronouncements issued before, but not effective until after, June 30, 2023, are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or internal controls.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

REVENUE RECOGNITION

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of our revenues are from contracts associated with the pickup, transportation and delivery of packages and freight ("transportation services"). These services may be carried out by or arranged by us and generally occur over a short period of time. Additionally, we provide value-added logistics services to customers through our global network of distribution centers and field stocking locations.

The vast majority of our contracts with customers are for transportation services that include only one performance obligation; the transportation services themselves. We generally recognize revenue over time, based on the extent of progress towards completion of the services in the contract. All of our major businesses act as a principal in their revenue arrangements and as such, we report revenue and the associated purchased transportation costs on a gross basis within our statements of consolidated income.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets include billed and unbilled amounts resulting from in-transit shipments, as we have an unconditional right to payment only when services have been completed (i.e. shipments have been delivered). Amounts do not exceed their net realizable value. Contract assets are generally classified as current and the full balance is converted each quarter based on the short-term nature of the transactions.

Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue as well as deferred revenue. Advance payments and billings in excess of revenue represent payments received from our customers that will be earned over the contract term. Deferred revenue represents the amount due from customers related to in-transit shipments that has not yet been recognized as revenue based on our selected measure of progress. We classify advance payments and billings in excess of revenue as either current or long-term, depending on the period over which the amount will be earned. We classify deferred revenue as current based on the short-term nature of the transactions. Our contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. In order to determine revenue recognized in the period from contract liabilities, we first allocate revenue to the individual contract liability balance outstanding at the beginning of the period until the revenue exceeds that deferred revenue balance.

Contract assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows (in millions):

	Balance Sheet Location	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Contract Assets:
Revenue related to in-transit packages	Other current assets	$	252	$	308
Contract Liabilities:
Short-term advance payments from customers	Other current liabilities	$	12	$	11
Long-term advance payments from customers	Other non-current liabilities	$	25	$	26

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable, net, include amounts billed and currently due from customers. The amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value. Losses on accounts receivable are recognized when reasonable and supportable forecasts affect the expected collectability. This requires us to make our best estimate of the current expected losses inherent in our accounts receivable at each balance sheet date. This estimate requires consideration of historical loss experience, adjusted for current conditions, forward looking indicators, trends in customer payment frequency and judgments about the probable effects of relevant observable data, including present and future economic conditions and the financial health of specific customers and market sectors. Our risk management process includes standards and policies for reviewing major account exposures and concentrations of risk.

Our allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $151 and $146 million, respectively. Amounts for credit losses charged to expense, before recoveries, during each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were $41 and $52 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were $83 and $106 million, respectively.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2023

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We issue share-based awards under various incentive compensation plans, including non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock units ("RSUs") and restricted performance shares and performance units ("RPUs", collectively with RSUs, "Restricted Units"). Upon vesting, Restricted Units result in the issuance of the equivalent number of UPS class A common shares after required tax withholdings. Dividends accrued on Restricted Units are reinvested in additional Restricted Units at each dividend payable date and are subject to the same vesting and forfeiture conditions as the underlying Restricted Units.

Our primary equity compensation programs are the UPS Long-Term Incentive Performance Program (the "LTIP") and the UPS Stock Option program. We also maintain an employee stock purchase plan which allows eligible employees to purchase shares of UPS class A common stock at a discount.

On November 2, 2022, we amended and restated the terms and conditions of the UPS Management Incentive Program (the "MIP") effective January 1, 2023, to provide that awards under the MIP will be fully electable in the form of cash or unrestricted shares of class A common stock.

Pre-tax compensation expense for share-based awards recognized in Compensation and benefits in the statements of consolidated income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $39 and $231 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $165 and $617 million, respectively.

Management Incentive Program

RPUs issued under the MIP prior to 2022 vested one year following the grant date subject to continued employment with the Company and were expensed on a straight-line basis (less estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. In cases of death, disability or retirement, RPUs vested and were expensed immediately.

RPUs issued under the MIP in 2022 vested on December 31, 2022. As a result, the award was classified as a compensation obligation and recorded in Accrued wages and withholdings on the consolidated balance sheet at that date. Based on the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the UPS Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") approval of the 2022 MIP, we determined the award measurement date to be February 8, 2023 for U.S.-based employees and executive management, and March 20, 2023 for international employees. Each RPU issued under the MIP was valued using the closing New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") prices of $186.36 and $183.49 on those dates. The compensation obligation recognized as of December 31, 2022 was relieved and the issuance of RPUs was recorded as Additional Paid-in Capital on the measurement date.

Long-Term Incentive Performance Program

RPUs issued under the LTIP vest at the end of a three-year performance period, subject to continued employment with the Company (except in the case of death, disability or retirement, in which case immediate vesting occurs on a prorated basis). The actual number of RPUs earned is based on achievement of the performance targets established on the grant date.

The performance targets are equally weighted between adjusted earnings per share and cumulative free cash flow. The actual number of RPUs earned is subject to adjustment based on total shareholder return relative to the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ("S&P 500"). We determine the grant date fair value of the RPUs using a Monte Carlo model and recognize compensation expense (less estimated forfeitures) ratably over the vesting period, based on the number of awards expected to be earned.

Based on the Compensation Committee's approval of the 2023 LTIP award performance targets, we determined March 22, 2023 to be the award measurement date and each target RPU awarded was valued at $200.01.

The weighted-average assumptions used and the weighted-average fair values of the LTIP awards granted in 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	2023			2022
Risk-free interest rate	3.81		%	2.35		%
Expected volatility	30.30		%	31.92		%
Fair value of RPUs granted	$	199.95		$	227.00
Share payout	107.80		%	107.37		%

There is no expected dividend yield as units earn dividend equivalents.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

We grant non-qualified stock options to a limited group of eligible senior management employees under the UPS Stock Option program. Stock option awards vest over a five-year period with approximately 20% of the award vesting at each anniversary of the grant date (except in the case of death, disability or retirement, in which case immediate vesting occurs). The option grants expire 10 years after the date of the grant. On March 22, 2023, we granted 0.1 million stock options at an exercise price of $185.54, the NYSE closing price on that date.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used and the weighted-average fair values of options granted in 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	2023			2022
Expected dividend yield	3.54		%	2.35		%
Risk-free interest rate	3.70		%	2.39		%
Expected life (in years)	5.93			7.50
Expected volatility	28.31		%	25.04		%
Fair value of options granted	$	41.08		$	48.45

Investment Impairments

We have concluded that no material impairment losses existed as of June 30, 2023. In making this determination, we considered the financial condition and prospects of each issuer, the magnitude of the losses compared with the cost, the probability that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security, the credit rating of the security and our ability and intent to hold these investments until the anticipated recovery in market value occurs.

Maturity Information

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of marketable securities as of June 30, 2023 by contractual maturity are shown below (in millions). Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

Fair Value Measurements

Marketable securities valued utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded equity securities and equity index funds, and most U.S. government debt securities, as these securities all have quoted prices in active markets. Marketable securities valued utilizing Level 2 inputs include asset-backed securities, corporate bonds and municipal bonds. These securities are valued using market corroborated pricing, matrix pricing or other models that utilize observable inputs such as yield curves.

The following table presents information about our investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value (in millions):

The components of net periodic benefit cost (income) other than current service cost are presented within Investment income and other in the statements of consolidated income.

During the first six months of 2022, we amended the UPS Canada Ltd. Retirement Plan to cease future benefit accruals effective December 31, 2023. We remeasured the plan's assets and benefit obligation, which resulted in a curtailment gain of $33 million ($24 million after-tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The gain is included in Investment income and other in the statement of consolidated income.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we contributed $1.2 billion and $92 million to our company-sponsored pension and U.S. postretirement medical benefit plans, respectively. We expect to contribute approximately $45 and $26 million over the remainder of the year to our pension and U.S. postretirement medical benefit plans, respectively.

Multiemployer Benefit Plans

We contribute to a number of multiemployer defined benefit and health and welfare plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover our union-represented employees. Our current collective bargaining agreements set forth the annual contribution increases allotted to the plans that we participate in, and we are in compliance with these contribution rates. These limitations on annual contribution rates will remain in effect throughout the terms of the existing collective bargaining agreements.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $817 and $821 million, respectively, recorded in Other Non-Current Liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets and $8 million as of each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 recorded in Other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets associated with our previous withdrawal from the New England Teamsters and Trucking Industry Pension Fund. This liability is payable in equal monthly installments over a remaining term of approximately 39 years. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for long-term financing of a similar maturity, the fair value of this withdrawal liability as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $705 and $686 million, respectively. We utilized Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques to determine the fair value of this liability.

UPS was a contributing employer to the Central States Pension Fund (“CSPF”) until 2007 at which time UPS withdrew from the CSPF. Under a collective bargaining agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (“IBT”), UPS agreed to provide coordinating benefits in the UPS/IBT Full Time Employee Pension Plan (“UPS/IBT Plan”) for UPS participants whose last employer was UPS and who had not retired as of January 1, 2008 (“the UPS Transfer Group”) in the event that benefits are reduced by the CSPF consistent with the terms of our withdrawal agreement with the CSPF. Under this agreement, benefits to the UPS Transfer Group cannot be reduced without our consent and can only be reduced in accordance with law. Subsequent to our withdrawal, the CSPF incurred extensive asset losses and indicated that it was projected to become insolvent. In such event, the CSPF benefits would be reduced to the legally permitted Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") limits, triggering the coordinating benefits provision in the collective bargaining agreement.

In March 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act (“ARPA”) was enacted into law. The ARPA contains provisions that allow for qualifying multiemployer pension plans to apply for special financial assistance ("SFA") from the PBGC, which will be funded by the U.S. government. Following SFA approval, a qualifying multiemployer pension plan will receive a lump sum payment to enable it to continue paying unreduced pension benefits through 2051. The multiemployer plan is not obligated to repay the SFA. The ARPA is intended to prevent both the PBGC and certain financially distressed multiemployer pension plans, including the CSPF, from becoming insolvent through 2051. The CSPF submitted an application for SFA that was approved in December 2022 and, in January 2023, the CSPF received $35.8 billion from the PBGC.

We account for the potential obligation to pay coordinating benefits under ASC Topic 715, which requires us to provide a best estimate of various actuarial assumptions in measuring our pension benefit obligation at the December 31st measurement date. As of December 31, 2022, our best estimate of coordinating benefits that may be required to be paid by the UPS/IBT Plan after SFA funds have been exhausted was immaterial.

The value of our estimate for future coordinating benefits will continue to be influenced by a number of factors, including interpretations of the ARPA, future legislative actions, actuarial assumptions and the ability of the CSPF to sustain its long-term commitments. Actual events may result in a change in our best estimate of the projected benefit obligation. We will continue to assess the impact of these uncertainties in accordance with ASC Topic 715.

Collective Bargaining Agreements

We have more than 300,000 employees in the U.S. employed under a national master agreement and various supplemental agreements with local unions affiliated with the Teamsters. These agreements were scheduled to expire on July 31, 2023. On July 25, 2023, we reached a new tentative national master agreement with the Teamsters. For additional information on these agreements and the ratification process, see note 18. No assurances of the timing of the ratification process can be provided. Customers may further reduce their business or stop doing business with us if they believe that such ratification process or the timing thereof may adversely affect our ability to provide services. In that event, we may permanently lose customers and this could materially adversely affect us. The terms of future collective bargaining agreements also may affect our competitive position and results of operations.

We have approximately 10,000 employees in Canada employed under a collective bargaining agreement with the Teamsters which runs through July 31, 2025.

We have approximately 3,500 pilots who are employed under a collective bargaining agreement with the Independent Pilots Association ("IPA"). This collective bargaining agreement becomes amendable September 1, 2025.

We have approximately 1,800 airline mechanics who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local 2727 which becomes amendable November 1, 2026. In addition, approximately 3,100 of our auto and maintenance mechanics who are not employed under agreements with the Teamsters are employed under collective bargaining agreements with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (“IAM”). The collective bargaining agreement with the IAM runs through July 31, 2024.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The following table indicates the allocation of goodwill as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

	U.S. Domestic Package		International Package		Supply Chain Solutions		Consolidated
December 31, 2022:	$	847	$	492	$	2,884	$	4,223

Currency / Other	—		3		24		27
June 30, 2023:	$	847	$	495	$	2,908	$	4,250

During the six months ended June 30, 2023:

•We recorded an increase in goodwill of $8 million, as part of purchase accounting for our November 2022 acquisition of Bomi Group. Certain areas, including our estimates of tax positions, remain preliminary as of June 30, 2023.

•We recorded an immaterial impairment charge related to the closure of a trade management services business within Supply Chain Solutions.

•The remaining movements are due to the impact of changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar on the translation of non-U.S. Dollar goodwill balances.

We complete our annual goodwill impairment evaluation as of July 1st on a reporting unit basis. Our 2022 annual impairment testing indicated that the fair value of goodwill associated with our Roadie reporting unit remained greater than its carrying value, although this excess was less than 10 percent. The goodwill associated with our Roadie reporting unit as of June 30, 2023 was $241 million.

For each of our reporting units and our indefinite-lived trade name, we continue to monitor the combined impact of macroeconomic conditions and business performance on our estimates of fair value. While we do not believe it is more likely than not our reporting unit fair values are less than their respective carrying values as of June 30, 2023, actual reporting unit performance, revisions to our forecasts of reporting unit performance, changes in estimates or assumptions in connection with our annual testing, or a combination thereof could result in an impairment charge in one or more of our reporting units during the third quarter of 2023 or another future period.

The following is a summary of intangible assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Value

Indefinite-lived intangible assets	204		—		204
Total Intangible Assets, Net	$	6,851	$	(4,055)	$	2,796

A trade name and licenses with carrying values of $200 and $4 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 are deemed to be indefinite-lived intangible assets, and therefore are not amortized. There were no events or changes in circumstances during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that would indicate the carrying amount of our indefinite-lived intangible assets may be impaired as of the date of this report.

Impairment tests for finite-lived intangible assets are performed when a triggering event occurs that may indicate that the carrying value of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. There were no impairment charges for finite-lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

Commercial Paper

We are authorized to borrow up to $10.0 billion under a U.S. commercial paper program and €5.0 billion (in a variety of currencies) under a European commercial paper program. As of June 30, 2023, we had no outstanding balances under our commercial paper programs. The amount of commercial paper outstanding under these programs in 2023 is expected to fluctuate.

Debt Classification

We have classified certain floating-rate senior notes that are redeemable at the option of the note holder as long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets, due to our intent and ability to refinance the debt if the put option is exercised.

Debt Repayments

During the first quarter of 2023, we repaid approximately $16 million of foreign-currency-denominated debt assumed in the Bomi Group acquisition.

On April 1, 2023, our 2.500% Senior Notes with a principal balance of $1.0 billion and our floating rate senior notes with a principal balance of $500 million matured and were repaid in full.

Debt Issuances

On February 23, 2023, we issued two series of notes in the principal amounts of $900 million and $1.1 billion. These notes bear interest at 4.875% and 5.050%, respectively, and mature on March 3, 2033 and March 3, 2053, respectively. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually, beginning September 2023. Each series of notes is callable at our option at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount, or the sum of the present values of scheduled payments of principal and interest, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On March 7, 2023, we issued floating rate senior notes with a principal balance of  $529 million. These notes bear interest at a rate equal to the compounded Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") less 0.350% per year and mature on March 15, 2073. These notes are callable at various times after 30 years at a stated percentage of par value and are redeemable at the option of the note holders at various times after one year at a stated percentage of par value.

Reference Rate Reform

Our floating-rate senior notes that mature between 2049 and 2067 bore interest at rates that referenced the London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") for U.S. Dollars. As part of a broader program of reference rate reform, U.S. Dollar LIBOR rates ceased to be published after June 2023. Beginning July 1, 2023, we transitioned these notes to an alternative reference rate, SOFR, which was adopted in accordance with recommendations of the Alternative Reference Rates Committee.

Sources of Credit

We maintain two credit agreements with a consortium of banks. The first of these agreements provides revolving credit facilities of $1.0 billion, and expires on December 5, 2023. Amounts outstanding under this agreement bear interest at a periodic fixed rate equal to the term SOFR rate, plus 0.10% per annum and an applicable margin based on our then-current credit rating. The applicable margin from the credit pricing grid as of June 30, 2023 was 0.70%. Alternatively, a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in the United States; (2) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50%; or (3) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, may be used at our discretion.

The second agreement provides revolving credit facilities of $2.0 billion, and expires on December 7, 2026. Amounts outstanding under this facility bear interest at a periodic fixed rate equal to the term SOFR rate plus 0.10% per annum and an applicable margin based on our then-current credit rating. The applicable margin from the credit pricing grid as of June 30, 2023 was 0.875%. Alternatively, a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in the United States; (2) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50%; or (3) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin, may be used at our discretion.

If the credit ratings established by Standard & Poor's and Moody's differ, the higher rating will be used, except in cases where the lower rating is two or more levels lower. In these circumstances, the rating one step below the higher rating will be used. We are also able to request advances under these facilities based on competitive bids for the applicable interest rate.

There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities as of June 30, 2023.

Debt Covenants

Our existing debt instruments and credit facilities subject us to certain financial covenants. As of June 30, 2023, and for all prior periods presented, we have satisfied these financial covenants. These covenants limit the amount of secured indebtedness that we may incur, and limit the amount of attributable debt in sale-leaseback transactions, to 10% of net tangible assets. As of June 30, 2023, 10% of net tangible assets was equivalent to $4.9 billion and we had no covered sale-leaseback transactions or secured indebtedness outstanding. We do not expect these covenants to have a material impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

Fair Value of Debt    

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for long-term debt with similar terms and maturities, the fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities, was approximately $20.2 and $18.2 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We utilized Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy of valuation techniques to determine the fair value of all of our debt instruments.

Leases [Abstract]

LEASES

LEASES

We have finance and operating leases for real estate (primarily package centers, airport facilities and warehouses), aircraft and engines, information technology equipment, vehicles and various other equipment used in operating our business. Certain leases for real estate and aircraft contain options to purchase, extend or terminate the lease.

Aircraft

In addition to the aircraft that we own, we charter aircraft to handle package and cargo volume on certain international trade lanes and domestic routes. Due to the nature of these agreements, primarily being that either party can cancel the agreement with short notice, we have classified these as short-term leases. A majority of our long-term aircraft operating leases are operated by a third party to handle package and cargo volume in geographic regions where, due to government regulations, we are restricted from operating an airline.

Transportation equipment and other equipment

We enter into both long-term and short-term leases for transportation equipment to supplement our capacity or meet contractual demands. Some of these assets are leased on a month-to-month basis and the leases can be terminated without penalty. We also enter into equipment leases to increase capacity during periods of high demand. These leases are treated as short-term as the cumulative right of use is less than 12 months over the term of the contract.

Some of our transportation and technology equipment leases require us to make additional lease payments based on the underlying usage of the assets. Due to the variable nature of these costs, these are expensed as incurred and are not included in the right of use lease asset and associated lease obligation.

The components of lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows (in millions):

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are involved in a number of judicial proceedings and other matters arising from the conduct of our business.

Although there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome, we have generally denied, or believe we have meritorious defenses and will deny, liability in all pending matters, including (except as otherwise noted herein) the matters described below, and we intend to vigorously defend each matter. We accrue amounts associated with legal proceedings when and to the extent a loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal proceedings may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts accrued on those claims.

For matters as to which we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of losses, we are not able to determine whether any such loss will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition. For these matters, we have described the reasons that we are unable to estimate a possible loss or range of losses.

Judicial Proceedings

We are a defendant in a number of lawsuits filed in state and federal courts containing various class action allegations under state wage-and-hour laws. At this time, we do not believe that any loss associated with any such matter will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition. One of these matters, Hughes v. UPS Supply Chain Solutions, Inc. and United Parcel Service, Inc. had previously been certified as a class action in Kentucky state court. In the second quarter of 2019, the court granted our motion for judgment on the pleadings related to the wage-and-hour claims. The plaintiffs' appeal of this decision was denied. However, they were granted a discretionary review by the Kentucky Supreme Court. In the first quarter of 2023, the Kentucky Supreme Court ruled in our favor. Plaintiffs have filed a motion for rehearing before the Kentucky Supreme Court.

In July 2023, another matter, Baker v. United Parcel Service, Inc. (DE) and United Parcel Service, Inc. (OH) was certified as a class action in federal court in the Eastern District of Washington. The plaintiff in this matter alleges that UPS violated the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. We are vigorously defending ourselves in this matter and believe that we have a number of meritorious defenses, and there are unresolved questions of law and fact that could be important to the ultimate resolution of this matter. Accordingly, at this time, we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of losses that may result from this matter or to determine whether such loss, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.

Other Matters

In August 2016, Spain’s National Markets and Competition Commission ("CNMC") announced an investigation into 10 companies in the commercial delivery and parcel industry, including UPS, related to alleged nonaggression agreements to allocate customers. In May 2017, we received a Statement of Objections issued by the CNMC. In July 2017, we received a Proposed Decision from the CNMC. In March 2018, the CNMC adopted a final decision, finding an infringement and imposing an immaterial fine on UPS. We appealed the decision. In December 2022, a trial court ruled against us. We have filed an appeal before the Spanish Supreme Court. We are vigorously defending ourselves and believe that we have a number of meritorious defenses. There are also unresolved questions of law that could be important to the ultimate resolution of this matter. We do not believe that any loss from this matter would have a material impact on our operations or financial condition.

We are a party in various other matters that arose in the normal course of business. We do not believe that the eventual resolution of these other matters (either individually or in the aggregate), including any reasonably possible losses in excess of current accruals, will have a material impact on our operations or financial condition.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]

SHAREOWNERS' EQUITY

SHAREOWNERS' EQUITY

Capital Stock, Additional Paid-In Capital, Retained Earnings and Non-Controlling Minority Interests

We are authorized to issue two classes of common stock, which are distinguished from each other primarily by their respective voting rights. Class A shares of UPS are entitled to 10 votes per share, whereas class B shares are entitled to one vote per share. Class A shares are primarily held by UPS employees and retirees, as well as trusts and descendants of the Company's founders, and these shares are fully convertible into class B shares at any time. Class B shares are publicly traded on the NYSE under the symbol “UPS”. Class A and B shares both have a $0.01 par value, and as of June 30, 2023, there were 4.6 billion class A shares and 5.6 billion class B shares authorized to be issued. Additionally, there are 200 million preferred shares authorized to be issued, with a par value of $0.01 per share. As of June 30, 2023, no preferred shares had been issued.

The following is a rollforward of our common stock, additional paid-in capital, retained earnings and non-controlling minority interests accounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions, except per share amounts):

(1) Includes a 1% excise tax applicable to share repurchases. (2) The dividend per share amount is the same for both class A and class B common stock. Dividends include $153 and $166 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that were settled in shares of class A common stock.

We repurchased 4.3 and 8.4 million shares of class B common stock for $750 million and $1.5 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. We repurchased 5.5 and 6.7 million shares of class B common stock for $983 million and $1.2 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. These repurchases were completed as follows:

•In August 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $5.0 billion of class A and class B common stock (the "2021 Authorization"). For the six months ended months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 0.5 million shares of class B common stock for $82 million under this authorization. The share repurchases discussed above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, were completed under this authorization.

•In January 2023, the Board of Directors terminated the 2021 Authorization and approved a new share repurchase authorization for $5.0 billion of class A and class B common stock (the "2023 Authorization"). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased 4.3 and 7.9 million shares for $750 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, under the 2023 Authorization. As of June 30, 2023, we had $3.6 billion available under this repurchase authorization.

We anticipate our share repurchases will total approximately $3.0 billion in 2023.

Future share repurchases may be in the form of accelerated share repurchase programs, open market purchases or other methods we deem appropriate. The timing of share repurchases will depend upon market conditions. Unless terminated earlier by the Board of Directors, this program will expire when we have purchased all shares authorized for repurchase under the program.

Movements in additional paid-in capital in respect of stock award plans comprise accruals for unvested awards, offset by adjustments for awards that vest during the period.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

We recognize activity in other comprehensive income for foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, unrealized gains and losses from derivatives that qualify as hedges of cash flows and unrecognized pension and postretirement benefit costs.

Deferred Compensation Obligations and Treasury Stock

We maintain a deferred compensation plan whereby certain employees were previously able to elect to defer the gains on stock option exercises by deferring the shares received upon exercise into a rabbi trust. The shares held in this trust are classified as treasury stock, and the liability to participating employees is classified as Deferred compensation obligations within Shareowners’ Equity in the consolidated balance sheets. The number of shares needed to settle the liability for deferred compensation obligations is included in the denominator in both the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. Employees are generally no longer able to defer the gains from stock options exercised.

Activity in the deferred compensation program for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was as follows (in millions):

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

We have two reportable segments: U.S. Domestic Package and International Package, which are together referred to as our global small package operations. Our remaining businesses are reported as Supply Chain Solutions. Global small package operations represent our most significant business and are broken down into regional operations around the world. Regional operations managers are responsible for both domestic and export products within their geographic area. Supply Chain Solutions comprises the results of non-reportable operating segments that do not meet the quantitative and qualitative criteria of a reportable segment as defined under ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting.

U.S. Domestic Package

U.S. Domestic Package operations include the time-definite delivery of letters, documents and packages throughout the United States.

International Package

International Package operations include delivery to more than 220 countries and territories worldwide, including shipments wholly outside the United States, as well as shipments with either origin or destination outside the United States. Our International Package reporting segment includes our operations in Asia, Europe, the Indian sub-continent, the Middle East, Africa, Canada and Latin America.

Supply Chain Solutions

Supply Chain Solutions includes our Forwarding, Logistics, UPS Mail Innovations, Coyote, Healthcare and other businesses. Our Forwarding, Logistics and UPS Mail Innovations businesses provide services in more than 200 countries and territories worldwide and include international air and ocean freight forwarding, customs brokerage, distribution and post-sales services, mail and consulting services. Coyote offers truckload brokerage services primarily in the United States. Our Healthcare businesses provide supply chain solutions to the healthcare and life sciences industries. Other businesses within Supply Chain Solutions include The UPS Store, UPS Capital, Roadie and Delivery Solutions.

In evaluating financial performance, we focus on operating profit as a segment’s measure of profit or loss. Operating profit is before investment income (expense) and other, interest expense and income tax expense. Certain expenses are allocated between the segments using activity-based costing methods. These activity-based costing methods require us to make estimates that impact the amount of each expense category that is attributed to each segment. Changes in these estimates directly impact the amount of expense allocated to each segment, and therefore the operating profit of each reporting segment. Our allocation methodologies are refined periodically, as necessary, to reflect changes in our businesses. There were no significant changes to our allocation methodologies in the second quarter or year-to-date periods.

Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (in millions):

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Management Policies

Changes in fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations and we actively monitor these exposures. Where deemed appropriate, to manage the impact of these exposures on earnings and/or cash flows, we may enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit Risk Management

The forward contracts, swaps and options discussed below contain an element of risk that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. We seek to minimize such risk exposures for these instruments by limiting the counterparties to banks and financial institutions that meet established credit guidelines. We may further manage credit risk through the use of zero threshold bilateral collateral provisions and/or early termination rights utilizing master netting arrangements, whereby cash is exchanged based on the net fair value of derivatives associated with each counterparty.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we held cash collateral of $238 and $534 million, respectively, under these agreements. This collateral is included in Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets and is unrestricted. As of June 30, 2023, we were required to post $1 million with our counterparties. As of December 31, 2022, no collateral was required to be posted with our counterparties.

Types of Hedges

Commodity Risk Management

Currently, the fuel surcharges that we apply in our domestic and international package businesses are the primary means of reducing the risk of adverse fuel price changes on our business. In order to mitigate the impact of fuel surcharges imposed on us by outside carriers, we regularly adjust the rates we charge for our freight brokerage services.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows from our international package business, we maintain a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. Our most significant foreign currency exposures relate to the Euro, British Pound Sterling, Canadian Dollar, Chinese Renminbi and Hong Kong Dollar. We generally designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of anticipated foreign currency denominated revenue.

We may also hedge portions of our anticipated cash settlements of principal and interest on certain foreign currency denominated debt. We generally designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions.

We hedge our net investment in certain foreign operations with foreign currency denominated debt instruments.

Interest Rate Risk Management

We may use a combination of derivative instruments to manage the fixed and floating interest rate mix of our total debt portfolio and related overall cost of borrowing.

We generally designate and account for interest rate swaps that convert fixed-rate interest payments into floating-rate interest payments as fair value hedges of the associated debt instruments. We designate and account for interest rate swaps that convert floating-rate interest payments into fixed-rate interest payments as cash flow hedges of the forecasted payment obligations.

We may periodically hedge the forecasted fixed-coupon interest payments associated with anticipated debt offerings by using forward starting interest rate swaps, interest rate locks or similar derivatives.

Outstanding Positions

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the notional amounts of our outstanding derivative positions were as follows (in millions):

		June 30, 2023	December 31, 2022

Balance Sheet Recognition

The following table indicates the location in the consolidated balance sheets where our derivative assets and liabilities have been recognized, the fair value hierarchy level applicable to each derivative type and the related fair values of those derivatives.

We have master netting arrangements with substantially all of our counterparties giving us the right of offset for our derivative positions. However, we have not elected to offset the fair value positions of our derivative contracts recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. The columns labeled Net Amounts if Right of Offset had been Applied indicate the potential net fair value positions by type of contract and location in the consolidated balance sheets had we elected to apply the right of offset as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

		Fair Value Hierarchy Level	Gross Amounts Presented in Consolidated Balance Sheets				Net Amounts if Right of Offset had been Applied

As of June 30, 2023, there were $94 million of pre-tax gains related to cash flow hedges deferred in AOCI that are expected to be reclassified to income over the 12-month period ending June 30, 2024. The actual amounts that will be reclassified to income over the next 12 months will vary from this amount as a result of changes in market conditions. The maximum term over which we are hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows is approximately 9 years.

Income Statement Recognition of Non-Designated Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in earnings each period. Cash flows from the settlement of derivative instruments appear in the statement of consolidated cash flows within the same categories as the cash flows of the hedged item.

We may periodically terminate interest rate swaps and foreign currency exchange forward contracts or enter into offsetting swap and foreign currency positions with different counterparties. As part of this process, we de-designate our original hedge relationship.

Amounts recorded in the statements of consolidated income related to fair value changes and settlements of interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions) were as follows:

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate increased to 23.5% in the second quarter from 22.9% in the same period of 2022 (24.2% year to date compared to 22.3% in 2022). The year-over-year increase was driven by lower excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation, unfavorable changes in jurisdictional earnings mix and uncertain tax positions.

We have recognized liabilities for uncertain tax positions and we reevaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position is audited and ultimately settled. It is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome or the timing of resolution for uncertain tax positions. Items that may cause changes to unrecognized tax benefits include the allowance or disallowance of deductions, the timing of deductions and the allocation of income and expense between tax jurisdictions. These changes could result from the settlement of ongoing litigation, the completion of ongoing examinations, the expiration of the statute of limitations or other unforeseen circumstances. Over the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $186 million.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY COSTS

TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY COSTS

We are undertaking an enterprise-wide transformation of our organization that includes initiatives, as well as changes in processes and technology, that impact global direct and indirect operating costs. During the quarter, we began implementing staffing adjustment initiatives to reduce our overhead cost and better align direct labor headcount with volumes. As of June 30, 2023, we recorded an accrual for separation costs of $85 million on the consolidated balance sheet. We expect substantially all of these costs will be paid by December 31, 2023.

The table below presents transformation strategy costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

	Three Months Ended  June 30,				Six Months Ended  June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Transformation Strategy Costs:

Income Tax Benefit from Transformation Strategy Costs	(33)		(10)		(33)		(22)
After-Tax Transformation Strategy Costs	$	106	$	31	$	109	$	74

The income tax effects of transformation strategy costs are calculated by multiplying the amount of the adjustments by the statutory tax rates applicable in each tax jurisdiction.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 25, 2023, we reached a tentative new national master agreement with the Teamsters that provides us with the flexibility we need to continue to innovate and deliver industry-leading customer service. The economic provisions in the tentative new national master agreement include pay and benefit increases for both our part-time and full-time Teamster employees, as well as workplace enhancements for employees. Subject to ratification by our Teamster-represented employees, the new agreements will be retroactively effective as of August 1, 2023.

As of the date hereof, we cannot provide any assurances as to the timing or certainty of ratification. The Teamsters have indicated publicly, however, that the ratification voting process will conclude by August 22. The failure by Teamster employees to ratify the new national master agreement could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited, consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The results reported in these unaudited, consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any other period or the entire year. The unaudited, consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited, consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsThe carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance receivables and accounts payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The fair values of our marketable securities are disclosed in note 5, our recognized multiemployer pension withdrawal liabilities in note 7, our short- and long-term debt in note 9 and our derivative instruments in note 15. We apply a fair value hierarchy (Levels 1, 2 and 3) when measuring and reporting items at fair value. Fair values are based on listed market prices (Level 1), when such prices are available. To the extent that listed market prices are not available, fair value is determined based on other relevant factors, including dealer price quotations (Level 2). If listed market prices or other relevant factors are not available, inputs are developed from unobservable data reflecting our own assumptions and include situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability (Level 3).

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of these financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Although our estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from our expectations, which could materially affect our results of operations and financial position. As a result, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change significantly over time.

Supplier Finance Programs

Supplier Finance Programs

As part of our working capital management, certain financial institutions offer a Supply Chain Finance ("SCF") program to certain of our suppliers. We agree to commercial terms with our suppliers, including prices, quantities and payment terms, regardless of whether the supplier elects to participate in the SCF program. Suppliers issue invoices to us based on the agreed-upon contractual terms. If they participate in the SCF program, our suppliers, at their sole discretion, determine which invoices, if any, to sell to the financial institutions. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the SCF program has no bearing on our payment terms. No guarantees are provided by us under the SCF program. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate, and we have no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions, as it relates to the SCF program.

Amounts due to our suppliers that participate in the SCF program are included in Accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheets.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting StandardsIn September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to enhance the disclosure of supplier finance programs. This ASU did not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. We adopted the requirements of this ASU as of January 1, 2023 and have included required disclosures within note 1.
