Track FDX free→FedEx completed the spin-off of FedEx Freight by June 2026, unlocking value. Revenue is expected near $94.7 billion in fiscal 2026 with EPS guidance up to $17.75. Capital spending is capped near $4.1 billion, showing disciplined investment. The company returns capital to shareholders with $4.3 billion in dividends and buybacks.
FedEx faces risks from abandoning its supply chain business, which may weaken its core logistics network. Management turnover and legal challenges add uncertainty. Revenue growth is expected to slow to about 0.5% next year, signaling pressure on demand. The recent sharp share price selloff reflects these concerns.
The price is about 19% below our fair value near $387 and 19% below consensus targets. Analysts expect roughly 0.5% revenue growth next year. Our fair value is 11% above the Street median, reflecting some optimism on execution and capital returns.
Breaks if: Capital returned falls below $3.5 billion annually
Continue returning capital to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases, including robust buyback programs and dividend increases.
