Briefing
FedEx reported Q3 fiscal 2026 revenue of $24.0B with net income of $1.06B and diluted EPS of $4.41.

The company incurred $195M of pre-tax costs related to the planned FedEx Freight spin-off and continued Network 2.0 optimization spending.

Forward guidance
Management is executing the planned FedEx Freight spin-off and Network 2.0; no separate quantitative EPS bridge was issued in the 10-Q, but MD&A cites yield gains, volume mix, and separation/optimization costs as key swing factors.
Tailwinds
- Revenue +8% on priority yield and domestic package growth.
- Nine-month diluted EPS $11.91 (+19% YoY).
- $1.3B remaining on the share repurchase authorization.
- Ongoing tax litigation could yield up to $249M benefit if upheld.
Headwinds

- Freight spin-off and fiscal-year-change costs elevated expenses.
- Macro trade-policy uncertainty noted in risk factors.
