Financial Condition – Liquidity Outlook

LIQUIDITY OUTLOOK

In response to current business and economic conditions as referenced above in the “Outlook” section of this MD&A, we are continuing to actively manage and optimize our capital allocation in response to the slowdown in the economy, inflationary pressures, changing fuel prices, geopolitical conflicts, and uncertainty regarding international trade, including the impact of global trade policy changes.

We held $8.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents at February 28, 2026 and had $3.5 billion in available liquidity under our $1.75 billion three-year credit agreement (the “Three-Year Credit Agreement”) and $1.75 billion five-year credit agreement (the “Five-Year Credit Agreement” and together with the Three-Year Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), and we believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash from operations, and available financing sources will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs, which include operational requirements, expected capital expenditures, voluntary pension contributions, dividend payments, and stock repurchases. See Note 4 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding recent amendments to the Credit Agreements. In the third quarter of 2025, we began incurring costs related to the planned spin-off of FedEx Freight, which are expected to be significant but are not expected to adversely affect our liquidity.

On February 9, 2026, InPost S.A. (“InPost”) and a consortium including FedEx announced a conditional agreement on an intended recommended all-cash public offer for all issued and outstanding shares of InPost at an offer price of €15.60 (cum dividend) per share (the “Offer”). Post-completion, the consortium will be structured with FedEx holding 37%. InPost will continue to operate as a standalone company. The Offer and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Transactions”) are subject to certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, the receipt of regulatory approvals. Based upon the proposed Offer price, FedEx’s investment is valued at approximately $2.6 billion. FedEx intends to fund its portion of the Offer by utilizing available cash balances, existing or new liquidity sources, or a combination thereof. Once the Transactions are completed, InPost and FedEx will enter into arm’s length commercial agreements that will enable both businesses to benefit from complementary strengths and a shared vision. The Transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2026.

We repurchased an aggregate of $776 million of our common stock in the nine months of 2026 through open market transactions. We did not repurchase common stock in the third quarter of 2026. See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and“Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” for more information. Subject to market conditions, liquidity needs, and other factors, the company will continue to evaluate repurchasing additional shares of our common stock during the remainder of fiscal 2026.

Our cash and cash equivalents balance at February 28, 2026 includes $4.1 billion of cash in foreign jurisdictions associated with our permanent reinvestment strategy. We are able to access the majority of this cash without a material tax cost and do not believe that the indefinite reinvestment of these funds impairs our ability to meet our U.S. domestic debt or working capital obligations.

We held $3.7 billion of restricted cash at February 28, 2026, in net proceeds from the senior unsecured notes issued by FedEx Freight Holding that is being held in a segregated account. See Note 4 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Our capital expenditures for 2026 are now expected to be approximately $4.1 billion, consistent with 2025 levels. Aircraft spend is expected to decline to approximately $1.0 billion, $0.3 billion lower than 2025. This reduction will be offset by an increase of $0.3 billion to support ongoing Network 2.0 initiatives, as well as modernization of global facilities and package handling equipment.

There have been no material changes to the contractual commitments described in Part II, Item 7 in our Annual Report. We do not have any guarantees or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including variable interest entities, which we believe could have a material effect on our financial condition or liquidity.

We have several aircraft modernization programs under way that are supported by the purchase of Boeing 777 Freighter (“B777F”) and Boeing 767-300 Freighter (“B767F”) aircraft. These aircraft are significantly more fuel-efficient per unit than the aircraft types previously utilized, and these expenditures are necessary to achieve significant long-term operating savings and to replace older aircraft. Our ability to delay the timing of these aircraft-related expenditures is limited without incurring significant costs to modify existing purchase agreements.

The Three-Year Credit Agreement and the Five-Year Credit Agreement expire in March 2028 and March 2030, respectively. Each of the Credit Agreements has a $125 million letter of credit sublimit. The Credit Agreements are available to finance our operations and other cash flow needs.

We have a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that allows us to sell, in one or more future offerings, any combination of our unsecured debt securities and common stock and allows pass-through trusts formed by Federal Express to sell, in one or more future offerings, pass-through certificates.

During the nine months of 2026, we made voluntary contributions of $275 million to our tax-qualified U.S. domestic pension plan (“U.S. Pension Plan”). We do not anticipate making any additional voluntary contributions for the remainder of fiscal 2026. There are currently no required minimum contributions to our U.S. Pension Plan, and we maintain a credit balance related to our cumulative excess voluntary pension contributions over those required that exceeds $3.0 billion. The credit balance is subtracted from plan assets to determine the minimum funding requirements. Therefore, we have the flexibility to eliminate all required contributions to our U.S. Pension Plan for several years. Our U.S. Pension Plan has ample funds to meet expected benefit payments.

On February 13, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.45 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on April 1, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 9, 2026. Each quarterly dividend payment is subject to review and approval by our Board of Directors, and we evaluate our dividend payment amount on an annual basis.

Standard & Poor’s has assigned us a senior unsecured debt credit rating of BBB, a Certificates rating of AA-, a commercial paper rating of A-2, and a ratings outlook of “stable.” Moody’s Investors Service has assigned us an unsecured debt credit rating of Baa2, a Certificates rating of Aa3, a commercial paper rating of P-2, and a ratings outlook of “stable.” Our interest expense may increase in the event of a reduction in our credit rating. If our unsecured debt or commercial paper ratings are reduced to below investment grade, our access to the capital markets may become limited.
