Such forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of UPS and its management regarding the company's strategic direction, prospects and future results, involve certain risks and uncertainties.
Certain factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements, including changes in economic and other conditions in the markets in which we operate, governmental regulations (including tax laws and regulations), our competitive environment, the facts or assumptions underlying our health and pension benefit funding obligations, the results of negotiation and ratification of labor contracts, the impact of any strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns, changes in aviation and motor fuel prices, cyclical and seasonal fluctuations in our operating results, and other risks discussed in the company's Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which discussions are incorporated herein by reference.
Conciliação de medidas financeiras GAAP e não GAAP
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, as applicable, "as adjusted" operating profit, operating margin, other income (expense), pre-tax income, net income and earnings per share. Além disso, divulgamos periodicamente o fluxo de caixa livre, o fluxo de caixa livre excluindo contribuições previdenciárias discricionárias e despesas de capital que abrangem a amortização do valor presente de obrigações de arrendamento mercantil. As medidas equivalentes determinadas de acordo com as normas GAAP também são chamadas de “declaradas” ou “não ajustadas”.
We consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends. Examples of items for which we may make adjustments include but are not limited to: amounts related to mark-to-market gains or losses (non-cash); settlement of contingencies; gains or losses associated with mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes; charges related to restructuring programs such as the implementation of our Transformation strategy; asset impairments (non-cash); amounts related to changes in tax regulations or positions; amounts related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of any hedging activities; other pension and postretirement related items; and debt modifications.
We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide additional meaningful information to assist users of our financial statements in understanding our financial results, cash flows and assessing our ongoing performance because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our underlying operations and may provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions. We also use certain of these measures for the determination of incentive compensation awards.
Recomenda-se que as medidas financeiras não GAAP sejam consideradas um complemento, e não uma alternativa, aos resultados declarados preparados de acordo com as normas GAAP. Nossas informações financeiras não GAAP não representam uma base abrangente de contabilidade. Portanto, nossas informações financeiras não GAAP podem não ser comparáveis a medidas com títulos semelhantes declaradas por outras empresas.
Custos relacionados a programas de reestruturação; custos da estratégia de transformação
We supplement the presentation of our operating profit, operating margin, pre-tax income, net income and earnings per share with similar non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of costs related to restructuring programs, including Transformation strategy costs. We believe this adjusted information provides a useful comparison of year-to-year financial performance without considering the short-term impact of restructuring costs. Avaliamos nosso desempenho nessa base ajustada.
Impacto de alterações de taxas de câmbio e atividades de hedging
We supplement the reporting of our revenue, revenue per piece and operating profit with non-GAAP measures that exclude the period-over-period impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes and hedging activities. Acreditamos que as informações de receita em moeda neutra, receita por peça e lucro operacional permitem que os usuários de nossas demonstrações financeiras compreendam as tendências de crescimento dos nossos produtos e resultados. We evaluate the performance of our International Package and Supply Chain and Freight segments on this currency-neutral basis.
A receita, a receita por peça e o lucro operacional com base cambial neutra, são calculados dividindo-se a receita, a receita por peça e o lucro operacional do período atual em dólares americanos pelas taxas de câmbio médias do período atual, a fim de derivar a receita, a receita por peça e o lucro operacional do período atual em moeda local. Os valores derivados são então multiplicados pelas taxas de câmbio médias usadas para converter os resultados comparáveis de cada mês do período do exercício anterior (incluindo o impacto de atividades de hedging cambial em relação ao mesmo período do exercício anterior). A diferença entre a receita, a receita por peça e o lucro operacional do período atual declarados em dólares americanos e a receita, a receita por peça e o lucro operacional do período atual derivados em dólares americanos representa o impacto de flutuações cambiais em relação ao mesmo período do exercício anterior.
Fluxo de caixa livre e despesas de capital ajustadas
We supplement the reporting of cash flows from operating activities with free cash flow, free cash flow excluding discretionary pension contributions and free cash flow plus principal repayments of capital lease obligations, non-GAAP liquidity measures. We believe these free cash flow measures are important indicators of how much cash is generated by regular business operations and we use them as a measure of incremental cash available to invest in our business, meet our debt obligations and return cash to shareowners. Additionally, we believe that adjusting capital expenditures for principal repayments of capital lease obligations more appropriately reflects the overall cash that we have invested in capital assets.We calculate free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment, and plus or minus the net changes in finance receivables and other investing activities. O fluxo de caixa livre, excluindo contribuições previdenciárias discricionárias, acrescenta novamente quaisquer contribuições previdenciárias discricionárias feitas durante o período.
