In the report, Moody’s said it expects LaserShip’s leverage to remain very high and liquidity to remain weak through 2023. Prolonged weakness will “increase the risk that the company’s capital structure is unsustainable at currently very high leverage levels,” according to the report. According to one of the sources, American Securities paid hefty sums for both companies and entered the integrated era “levered for perfection.” It hasn’t gone perfectly. However, the two acquisitions and the subsequent leverage that was built up were not on Holifield’s watch, according to one source. The company was formed out of the 2021 merger of Eastern carrier LaserShip and OnTrac, which operates out of the western U.S., by private equity firm American Securities LLC. In the report, Moody’s lowered the corporate rating of LaserShip — it did not use the rebranded name — to Caa1 from B3 and the probability of default rating to Caa1-PD from B3-PD. However, the aggressiveness of the national carriers is different than it has been in the past, the sources said. 1 if a new collective bargaining agreement is not agreed to by the current expiration date of July 31. Moody’s describes a Caa rating as being given to companies that are “of poor standing … Much of today’s shifting is playing out in a climate of excess capacity, a scenario not seen since before the pandemic. While this may be a positive trend for shippers, it has raised familiarity issues with consumers who are not aware of, or comfortable with, most of the new carriers, a source said. As shippers return more parcels to the national carriers, they become eligible for price breaks they may have relinquished when they bolted.

Contract negotiations between UPS and the Teamsters has seen FedEx nudge UPS customers to switch to them as protection against a strike.

Older customers recall a strike at UPS in 1997 that lasted for 15 days, and the seemingly endless contract stand-off between west coast longshoremen and employers has prompted shippers to divert traffic away from west coast ports. A strike at UPS would trap a large volume of Amazon traffic that would have to compete for alternative carriage. FedEx has targeted UPS customers with a message urging them to shift traffic over. FedEx needs volume and revenue, noted LPF Spend Management in a blog post commenting on the integrator’s customer-fishing drive. The five-year contract for some 340,000 UPS employees who are Teamsters members is going to expire on 31 July. The integrator needs early commitments to facilitate its capacity planning.
