And that’s not all. For years, UPS has been saying in its annual reports that no single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenue. “We do not believe the loss of any single customer would materially impair our overall financial condition or results of operations,” the company stated in the “Risk Factors” section of its last seven 10-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
