• UPS is deliberately shrinking to grow margins: it is cutting volume from its largest customer, telling investors in its 10-K it expects that customer's volume ⟦to decline to approximately 50% of year-end 2024 levels by mid-2026⟧ as it shifts toward higher-yielding packages. [Source: UPS FY2024 10-K] • The transition is costly in the near term: Q1 2026 revenue fell to $21.2 billion, operating margin dropped to 6.0% from 7.7%, and GAAP diluted EPS fell to $1.02 from $1.40 as restructuring costs
