UPS reported $22.9 billion in third-quarter revenue, up 6.7% from a year earlier, and raised its full-year sales forecast to about $92.6 billion as it heads into the holiday shipping season.

Adjusted earnings came in at $1.69 per share, topping Wall Street expectations. On a reported basis, diluted earnings were $1.37 per share. The company reported operating profit of $1.7 billion, or $2.1 billion on an adjusted basis.

UPS said revenue grew across all segments. U.S. domestic revenue rose 4.5%, helped by a 6.1% increase in revenue per package. The company pointed to stronger business fundamentals and greater network efficiency as it raised its outlook.

The updated 2026 forecast calls for approximately $8.75 billion in adjusted operating profit and adjusted diluted earnings of about $7.28 per share. UPS also raised its adjusted free cash flow target to around $6.1 billion. Those figures are company projections, not completed results.
