TL;DR

UPS will replace FedEx as the United States Postal Service's primary air cargo provider, ending FedEx's more than 20-year partnership with USPS. The financial terms of the contract were not disclosed, but UPS described the award as "significant." FedEx's shares fell nearly 2% following the announcement, and the company stated that its profitability would improve in fiscal 2025 despite the loss of the contract. USPS' payments to FedEx shrank to about $1.7 billion in fiscal 2023, from $2.4 billion in fiscal 2020, as the agency reorganizes its operations to accommodate changes in customer behavior and demand.
