The Postal Service is required by law and regulations to disclose operational and financial information well beyond what the law requires of other government agencies and most private sector companies.
The FY2013 Annual Performance Report and FY2014 Annual Performance Plan and the FY2013 Comprehensive Statement on Postal Operations contain information required by Title 39 U.S.C. Sections 2803 and 2804 and Section 2401(e). The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006, Section 3652, reiterates the requirement for the Postal Service to prepare these annual reports.
The Postal Service is not a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is not subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, it is required under P.L. 109-435 to file with the Postal Regulatory Commission certain financial reports containing information prescribed by the SEC under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These reports include annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K, which are available at about.usps.com/who-we-are/financials/welcome.htm.
Pursuant to Title 39 and PRC regulations, additional disclosures on the organization and finances, including Cost and Revenue Analysis reports, Revenue, Pieces, and Weight reports, financial and strategic plans, the Annual Report to Congress and the Comprehensive Statement on Postal Operations are filed with the PRC and may also be found online at about.usps.com. Information on the website is not incorporated by reference in this report.
We make available on our website, free of charge, copies of our recent annual reports, quarterly reports, and current reports as soon as reasonably practicable after they are filed with or provided to the PRC. Requests for copies may also be sent to the following address:
