Strengths · Weaknesses
Strengths

- Has paid dividends for 27 yrs in a row
- High dividend yield (6.46%)Above the median 1.1% of 103 Industrials stocks

- Pays more in dividends than it earns (payout ratio 121.93%)
Only metrics that stand out as clearly good or weak against general benchmarks are listed. Where a comparison is possible, the position against the median of stocks in the same sector is shown too. The stock count on each sector line covers only stocks with that metric, so it differs by metric.

Metric scores run up to 100, and the middle score is 50. If all nine metrics scored 50, the overall score would also be 50. Each bar is the contribution of one metric: how far its score sits from the 50 baseline, converted by that metric weight. Right means it raised the overall score, left means it lowered it.
Adding the nine contributions above to the baseline gives 63.8 points, and this stock's overall score is 63. The overall score is calculated from unrounded metric scores and then truncated, while the contributions here are rounded to one decimal place, so the two can differ by up to 1 point. Metrics that are not measured values still carry a contribution, because their scores did go into the overall score and hiding them would hide part of the basis of the grade.

Where this score sits
55% of the major stocks graded by Jupick score lower than this. Stocks in the same Grade B: 289.
- S172.8%
- A14524.2%
- BThis stock28948.2%
- C12621%
- D233.8%
The Grade B band runs from 50 to 69 points, 20 points wide. This stock's 63 points sit 13 points above the lower boundary, and 7 points remain to 70, where Grade A starts.
Within the Industrials sector alone, it ranks No. 60 of 132 stocks with an overall score, and the median overall score of the sector is 61.
Unlike metric values, the overall score uses the same baseline for every market and currency, so Korean and US stocks share one sample. The grade boundaries of 85, 70, 50 and 30 points apply equally to every stock, so the counts above are how the sample actually splits at those boundaries. Because one point can decide a grade, two stocks with different grades can be closer in score than two stocks with the same grade. The shares and ranks here describe only the major stocks Jupick covers, not every listed stock.
Schedule
Earnings release
A date announced by the company.
The day the company publishes quarterly or annual results. Only the release date is covered, not the results. Release times are not covered, so only the date (Korea time) is shown. After the release, metrics such as revenue growth are updated at the next data refresh.
Dividend dates
- Ex-dividend date
- Shares acquired from this date do not carry the dividend for that period. From this date the shares trade without the right to it.
- Payment date
- The day the confirmed dividend reaches shareholder accounts. It comes weeks to months after the ex-dividend date, and Korean year-end dividends are set only after the shareholder meeting confirms them.
These are the announced ex-dividend and payment dates. The next period is not shown until its dates are set. Days remaining are counted in Korea time when the page was updated, so they can be off by about a day. The dates are copied as announced and can change. For the size of the dividend, see dividend yield. For information only. Not investment advice.

United Parcel Service (UPS) has category scores of Earnings 75 · Financial health 45 · Dividends 70. These are the four major stocks graded in all three categories whose profiles come closest, and no category differs by more than 7 points.
The three scores are given by Jupick from public financial metrics, each out of 100. A similar profile means similar grading results only. It does not mean the share prices move alike.
Metrics to read together
Read one at a time, metrics split into strengths and weaknesses, but side by side two of them can be two sides of the same fact.
- ROEDebt-to-equity ratio
High ROE sits on top of heavy debt
ROE divides profit by equity, so it also rises when borrowing grows and equity gets thinner. United Parcel Service has a high ROE of 29.6% and a heavy debt-to-equity ratio of 189.9%. Read apart, one is a strength and the other a weakness, but these two figures alone cannot separate how much profit was made from how thin the equity is.
- Dividend yieldPayout ratio
Dividends exceeded the year's profit
A dividend yield of 6.46% is on the high side, and a payout ratio of 121.93% means more was paid as dividends than the profit earned that year. The gap came from retained earnings or other sources, so the year's profit alone did not cover this dividend.
This explains how reported figures relate to each other. It says nothing about future results or share prices. Metrics without measured values are left out.
Ratios as amounts
Base ₩10,000Every ratio metric of this stock, restated on the same amount. If each line used a different base, the amounts could not be compared, so every line starts from ₩10,000.
For every ₩10,000 of revenue: operating profit ₩910.Operating margin 9.1%
- For every ₩10,000 of equityyearly net profit ₩2,960
- If last year's revenue was ₩10,000this year's revenue ₩10,760
- For every ₩10,000 of equitydebt owed ₩18,990
- For every ₩10,000 of debt due within a yearassets turning into cash within a year ₩11,790
- For every ₩10,000 of interestoperating profit ₩77,000
- For every ₩10,000 worth of sharesdividends over the last year ₩650
- For every ₩10,000 of net profitdividends paid to shareholders ₩12,190
- For ₩10,000 of net profitmarket value ₩189,000
- For ₩10,000 of book equitymarket value ₩57,000
The ₩10,000 base is an assumption chosen for easy reading, not this company's actual revenue or equity. The values multiply the ratios shown as they are and round to the nearest won, so they can differ from the source by a few won. Metrics that make no sense as amounts are left out: values that are not measured, values that cannot be confirmed as measured, and loss-making cases where the base amount does not hold. This stock does not report in won, but ratios do not depend on currency, so the amounts are shown in won.
Metrics that decide the grade
Overall 63 · Grade BThe overall score recalculated with just one of the nine metrics set to the middle score of 50. Only one metric changes at a time, and the other eight stay as they are.
With any single metric at 50, the overall score stays in Grade B.
The metric closest to a boundary is Payout ratio. With only this metric at 50, the overall score would be 66.3, 3.7 points from the 70 point boundary. Dividends · metric 10 · contribution -3.3
The scores above add up this stock's metric scores again with one of them set to 50. They are not new grades, and this stock's grade stays at B. Metric scores and contributions are rounded to one decimal place, so a change within 1 point of a boundary is not reported as a grade change. Changing two or more metrics at once was not calculated.
Where the share price enters the grade
The grade above turns 9 metrics into scores and combines them. Counting how many of them use the share price shows whether the grade moves when the price moves.
1 of the 9 graded metrics divide by the share price.

- PER and PBRCome from the share price but are not scoredNot graded
For US stocks, only Dividend yield divides dividends by the share price. It is recalculated when the price changes, and the other 8 metrics come from financial statements and dividend history.

Won and dollar stocks have different metric levels, so they are counted in separate samples. This is only where a value sits in a line-up, not a sign of good or bad and not an investment judgement. Stocks without the metric, and loss-making stocks where PER or PBR does not hold, are left out of the sample. The remaining sample size is shown on each line. The sector axis is not drawn when the same-currency, same-sector sample has fewer than 8 stocks.
