Pitney Bowes (PBI) Soars 9.9% on Higher Postal Service Fee
We recently published . Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI) is one of Monday's top performers. Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI) jumped by 9.9 percent on Monday to close at $12.10 apiece as investors took path from the increase in prices of shipping services that began on Sunday, July 13. This followed the Postal Service's notification to the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) in May this year that raised domestic shipping services by approximately 6.3 percent for Priority Mail service, 7.1 percent for USPS Ground Advantage, and 7.6 percent for Parcel Select. Prices have not changed for Priority Mail Express service. A busy logistics center filled with trucks and planes, showing the scale of the companies operations. According to USPS, the proposed changes will support the Postal Service in creating a revitalized organization capable of providing a nationwide, integrated network for the delivery of mail and packages at least six days a week, in a cost-effective and financially sustainable manner over the long term, just as the U.S. Congress has intended. Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI), a US-based global shipping and mailing company, is expected to benefit from higher prices for its services. While we acknowledge the potential of PBI as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Parcel provider Deliver It shuts down
Parcel delivery provider Deliver It has shut down, an apparent victim of intense competition in the domestic last-mile delivery sector that took off with the entry of tech-enabled startups responding to tight capacity when online shopping exploded during the pandemic. Deliver It, which provided next-day delivery e-commerce and B2B customers in California, Arizona and Nevada, is the latest parcel service to go under in the past year. Pandion shut down in January, citing difficult market conditions. Other companies that have disappeared include Maergo, Point Pickup and Pitney Global E-Commerce. Kendra Jackson, Deliver It's chief commercial officer, wrote on LinkedIn she received notice that the company 'unexpectedly closed its doors' on Monday. The company's website does not have any information about going out of business and executives could not be reached for further details. Pitney Bowes' recent Parcel Shipping Index underscored how the recent influx of couriers in the United States has created a buyer's market with providers competing on price and eating into the market share of FedEx, UPS and the U.S. Postal Service. The volume carried by alternative carriers has jumped nearly 40% in the past five years. In 2024, carrier revenue per parcel ticked down a penny to $9.09. Independent and regional parcel carriers only represent 9.7% of the domestic parcel, according to ShipMatrix, making it difficult for all of them to succeed. Experts say too many companies jumped into the parcel market without full consideration of the high cost of residential delivery and they were squeezed when the e-commerce market normalized., Inflation, macro-economic uncertainty, declining e-commerce volumes from China because of Trump administration tariffs, more aggressive pricing from traditional integrated carriers and a slowdown in venture capital funding have also pressured delivery companies, according to Cirrus Global Advisors. Some carriers also expanded too quickly and were unable to maintain quality service levels. 'There is no need for the number of carriers that deliver today [or next day] in Southern California. I know of 8 different companies that can do your parcel delivery, not including UPS, USPS, FedEx or Amazon Shipping. The market is too fragmented for all of them to be individually successful. We will continue to see exits or consolidation in the months to come,' said Derek Lossing, founder of Cirrus Global Advisors, on LinkedIn. Deliver It was an asset-light provider that used third-party carriers for physical distribution. The company served industries such as real estate, court reporting, finance and healthcare, according to the website. RFID tracking and after-hours drop boxes were part of its product offering.

US parcel market to grow 36% by 2030, Pitney Bowes says
Revenue growth for U.S. parcel shipping lagged volumes last year as an influx of new last-mile delivery companies put downward pressure on prices in a market that is expected to grow 36% by 2030, according to an annual industry report from Pitney Bowes. Smaller carriers are increasingly taking market share from legacy carriers FedEx, UPS and the U.S. Postal Service, but their biggest threat is Amazon. The retailer's logistics operation handled 6.3 billion parcels in 2024, up 7.3% year over year, and is expected to overtake the Postal Service by 2028, Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI) said in its recent Parcel Shipping Index. The provider of mail and parcel shipping services, technology and equipment said U.S. parcel volume increased 3.4% to 22.4 billion shipments last year and estimated it will grow 5% per year to $30.5 billion in 2030. Revenue, however, grew 2.7% last year to $203.2 billion. Carriers are increasingly offering competitive pricing to attract customers, leading to lower revenue. Carrier revenue per parcel ticked down to $9.09 down from $9.10 in 2023, according to Pitney Bowes. Independent couriers gaining market traction in recent years include OnTrac, Better Trucks, Jitsu, Veho, SpeedX, Speedy Delivery and UniUni. Many of them are startups or provide regional service with lower overhead than national carriers. The U.S. Postal Service's new lost-cost shipping option, Ground Advantage, has also contributed to the pricing pressure. 'Since Pitney Bowes began tracking shipments a decade ago, the parcel market has been dominated by FedEx, UPS and USPS. We are witnessing a turning of the tide, evidenced by the nearly 40% volume growth in the five-year compound annual growth rate of [alternative] carriers,' said Pitney Bowes Executive Vice President Shemin Nurmohamed, in a news release. 'This disruption presents a unique opportunity for businesses to take advantage of competitive pricing.' The Pitney Bowes findings echo earlier research from parcel management and consulting firm ShipMatrix Inc. It put domestic parcel revenue at $188 billion and average revenue per parcel at $8. Domestic parcel volumes will grow at a compound annual rate of 4% over the next three years, with Amazon, Walmart and other carriers winning the lion's share of new business. FedEx, UPS and the U.S. Postal Service will likely experience flat to negative growth, ShipMatrix said. The U.S. Postal Service retained its hold as the largest parcel carrier by volume with 6.9 billion shipments in 2024, an increase of 3.4% from the prior year, per Pitney Bowes. UPS volume increased 1.7% to 4.7 billion pieces. FedEx was the only carrier to experience a year-over-year decline, with 3.9 billion parcels compared to 3.7 billion in 2023. The combined volume for other small couriers jumped 23% to 800 million pieces. The Postal Service is the market share leader by volume at 31%. Amazon moved up a point to 28% of the market, followed by UPS with a 21% share. FedEx's market share fell a point to 17%, while 'other' carriers moved from 3% to 3.5%. UPS led domestic carriers with $69.8 billion in revenue, followed by FedEx, at $63.2 billion, the Postal Service at $32.3 billion and Amazon Logistics at $31.1 billion. From a revenue standpoint, UPS controls 34% of the market. UPS and FedEx lost about 1% in revenue market share in 2024, while revenue market share for Amazon increased 1 point to 15.3% and from 2.8% to 3.4% for 'other' carriers. Domestic parcel growth slowed to 0.4% in the first quarter, according to Pitney Bowes' figures. Weather disruptions and a freeze on handling shipments from China and Hong Kong valued below $800 after a change in U.S. tariff policy contributed to a 6.2% drop in U.S. Postal Service volumes. Meanwhile, UPS volumes declined 5.4% after the company began to implement a 50% service cut for its Amazon account. Pitney Bowes used quarterly and annual financial reports from the major carriers, quarterly operational data from the Postal Service, and data from Shein, Temu and other sources to compile the Parcel Shipping Index. FedEx operates on an unusual fiscal year, so its figures are based on December through November instead of a traditional calendar year. The report counts shipments weighing up to 70 pounds.
