預測性陳述
Except for historical information contained herein, the statements made in this release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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.
GAAP 和非 GAAP 財務指標調節
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. 此外,我們還定期披露自由現金流,自由現金流不包括可自由支配的退休金繳款,以及包括資本租賃負債的本金償還在內的資本支出。根據 GAAP 確定的對等指標也指代「已報告的」或「未調整的」指標。
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.
非 GAAP 財務指標應視為我們根據 GAAP 編制的報告結果的補充,而不是更替。我們的非 GAAP 財務資訊不代表全面的會計基礎。因此,我們的非 GAAP 財務資訊可能無法與其他公司所報告的類似提法的指標作比較。
重組計劃相關成本;轉型策略成本
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. 我們會在調整後的基礎上評估我們的業績。
外幣匯率變化和套期保值活動之影響
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. 我們相信貨幣中立收入、每件收入和營運利潤資訊讓我們的財務報表使用者能了解我們的產品與業績的增長趨勢。We evaluate the performance of our International Package and Supply Chain and Freight segments on this currency-neutral basis.
貨幣中立收入、每件收入及營業利潤的計算方式是:用當期報告的美元收益、每件收益及營業利潤除以當期平均匯率,以得出當期本國貨幣收益、每件收益及營業利潤。然後用所得出的金額乘以用來轉化去年同期每個月的可比較結果之平均外匯匯率(包括外幣套期保值活動的逐期影響)。當期報告的美元收益、每件收益及營業利潤和所得出的當期美元收益、每件收益及營業利潤之間的差異為幣值波動的逐期影響。
自由現金流和調整後的資本支出
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. 自由現金流(不包括可自由支配的退休金繳款)加回在此期間作出的任何可自由支配的退休金繳款。
