[QUOTE="rudy5150, post: 1175403, member: 44431"] [I]Liquidity [/I] UPS generated free cash flow of $2.5 billion and spent $990 million in the second quarter. The company also repurchased 21.8 million shares worth $1.8 billion and paid dividends of $1.1 billion. [I]Guidance[/I] As guided on Jul 12, 2013 adjusted diluted earnings per share are likely to the range between $4.65 and $4.85. The projection represents year-over-year growth of 3% to 7%. In the second half of the year, the company expects earnings growth to accelerate, representing growth rate of 4% to 13%. [I]Our Analysis[/I] Despite the challenging macroeconomic conditions, UPS has a strong hold within the industry with a focused approach towards expansion, various strategic measures, collaborations with other leading firms, a well-defined business model and constant technology upgrades. Its integrated sales approach also promises growth given its industry-leading margins and financial strength. However, we remain concerned about the volatile economy condition that continues to restrict market demand. Further, rising pension headwinds also keep us on the sidelines. UPS, which operates with the likes of [I]FedEx Corporation[/I] (FDX), [I]Expeditors International of Washington Inc. [/I](EXPD) and [I]Radiant Logistics, Inc. [/I](RLGT) retains a Zacks Rank # 4 (Sell). [/QUOTE]
