Vulcan Value Partners highlighted stocks like United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) in the first quarter 2023 investor letter. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) is a package delivery company. On May 4, 2023, United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) stock closed at $173.29 per share. One-month return of United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) was -8.11%, and its shares lost 3.68% of their value over the last 52 weeks. United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) has a market capitalization of $150.153 billion.

Vulcan Value Partners made the following comment about United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) in its Q1 2023 investor letter:

“We purchased United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS) during the quarter. UPS is a global parcel shipment and logistics company which competes in a global oligopoly with high barriers to entry. UPS’ integrated network is more efficient than its closest peer, as evidenced by its margin profile, free cash flow conversion, and returns on invested capital. The company’s management team is focusing on profitable growth through its Better, not Bigger strategy which should improve margins and future opportunities for the company. The stock price was down due to market concerns about customer concentration and Amazon’s potential entry into the parcel delivery and logistics market. Additionally, UPS Teamsters’ labor agreement expires on July 31, 2023. The market fears a potential labor strike, significant wage inflation, and shippers moving volume to competitors due to concerns around potential service disruptions. We have incorporated these risks into our value, and we believe its stock price is still discounted.”
