Read MoreHide Full Article
For the quarter ended December 2022, United Parcel Service (UPS - Free Report) reported revenue of $27.03 billion, down 2.7% over the same period last year. EPS came in at $3.62, compared to $3.59 in the year-ago quarter.
The reported revenue represents a surprise of -3.27% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $27.95 billion. With the consensus EPS estimate being $3.58, the EPS surprise was +1.12%.
While investors closely watch year-over-year changes in headline numbers -- revenue and earnings -- and how they compare to Wall Street expectations to determine their next course of action, some key metrics always provide a better insight into a company's underlying performance.
As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.
