# USPS Reports FY2026 Financial Results

The U.S. Postal Service reported **$82.9 billion in revenue** and a **$6.5 billion GAAP net loss** for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2026. Although its net and controllable losses improved from the prior year, USPS said its financial position remains precarious. The agency continues to pursue cost controls, network consolidation, reduced work hours, and price increases, while seeking changes to debt, pension, investment, and workers’ compensation rules. No solicitation or contract award was announced.

- USPS’s cost discipline and network changes may affect future requirements for transportation, logistics, and other support services; contractors should assess how those changes could affect their existing or prospective USPS work.
- The results signal continued pressure on USPS spending and operating costs, which may shape the scope or timing of future procurements.
- USPS is seeking legislative, regulatory, and administrative changes; the signal does not report that any of these changes have been enacted.
