FedEx’s operating income dropped significantly in Q1 2025 primarily due to a **27% decrease** year-over-year, driven by several factors. First, there was a **shift in service mix** from higher-margin priority services to lower-margin deferred services, which constrained yield growth and negatively impacted revenue flow-through.  **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:24]** **[0000950170-24-108098_fdx-ex99_1.htm:0]** **[FDX_3401870_6]**  Additionally, the quarter had **one fewer operating day**, resulting in an estimated **$170 million** headwind to operating income.  **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:24]** **[FDX_3401870_6]**  Higher operating expenses also played a role—**purchased transportation costs** increased by **5%**, and there were **increased wage rates** and retirement benefits despite cost-reduction initiatives.  **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:25]**  Furthermore, **macroeconomic and demand challenges**, including a weak industrial economy, declining U.S. domestic priority service volumes, and pressures from elevated inflation and interest rates, further constrained revenue.  **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:22]** **[FDX_3401870_1]**  Lastly, **increased business optimization costs** (rising from **$105 million** to **$128 million**) and the impact of **lower fuel surcharges** contributed to the decline, reducing operating margins from **6.8%** in Q1 2024 to **5.0%** in Q1 2025.  **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:24]** **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:22]** **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:25]** **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:23]** **[0000950170-24-108098_fdx-ex99_1.htm:7]** 

Why did Operating Income drop significantly in Q1 2025?

The steep decline in FedEx’s net income in Q1 2025 was caused by a combination of factors. **Revenue and volume trends** played a key role, as there was a global decline in priority volume and an increase in deferred volume, which limited yield growth. Additionally, **higher operating expenses**—driven by increased wages, higher purchased transportation rates, and one fewer operating day—added a significant headwind. Although FedEx achieved some **structural cost savings** through its DRIVE initiatives, these savings fell short of expectations in terms of timing, failing to fully offset revenue and expense pressures. Moreover, **segment performance issues** in both the Express and Freight divisions weakened operating income, and **macroeconomic factors** such as slowed industrial production, declining U.S. imports, as well as elevated inflation and interest rates further contributed to the decline.  **[0000950170-24-108098_fdx-ex99_1.htm:0]** **[0000950170-24-108098_fdx-ex99_1.htm:7]** **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:23]** 

What caused the steep decline in Net Income in Q1 2025?

The surge in Basic EPS in Q4 2024 was driven by a combination of factors. **Cost savings initiatives**, notably through the DRIVE Program, delivered **$1.8 billion in structural cost reductions** that helped boost profitability.  **[FDX_3392724_1]**  **Improved operating margins** in key segments—especially within FedEx Ground and FedEx Freight—further contributed to the rise.  **[0000950170-24-077290_fdx-ex99_1.htm:16]**  In addition, **lower capital intensity** (with CapEx decreasing from **$6.17 billion to $5.18 billion**) and **share repurchases** totaling **$3.8 billion** helped reduce the share count, positively impacting EPS.  **[0000950170-24-077290_fdx-ex99_1.htm:0]** **[FDX_3392724_6]** **[FDX_3392724_1]**  Finally, a **noncash MTM retirement plans adjustment** resulted in a **$561 million pre-tax gain** (equating to **$1.69 per diluted share**) in Q4 2024, providing an extra boost to the earnings per share.  **[0000950170-24-102826_fdx-ex99_1.htm:4]** **[0000950170-24-083577_fdx-20240531.htm:64]** 

What drove the surge in Basic EPS in Q4 2024?

Revenue declined in Q2 2025 due to a mix of factors. **FedEx** experienced a **1% decrease** compared to Q2 2024, driven primarily by a **weaker U.S. industrial economy** that dampened demand—especially impacting the **FedEx Freight segment**, which saw an **11% year-over-year decline in revenue**. Additionally, the **expiration of the USPS contract** on September 29, 2024, reduced revenue in the Federal Express segment, while **lower fuel surcharges** (resulting from declining fuel prices) and a **shift toward lower-yielding services** such as Ground Economy further contributed to the drop. Although international export package volumes increased by **9%**, this growth did not fully compensate for domestic weaknesses.  **[0000950170-24-138460_fdx-20241130.htm:27]** **[0000950170-24-138448_fdx-ex99_1.htm:7]** **[FDX_3411971_5]** **[0000950170-24-138448_fdx-ex99_1.htm:0]** **[0000950170-24-138460_fdx-20241130.htm:24]** **[FDX_3411971_16]**

In Q2 2025, FedEx’s cash and cash equivalents dropped significantly primarily due to substantial outflows from financing and investing activities. The company executed **share repurchases of $2,020 million** and made **dividend payments of $676 million**, in addition to incurring **capital expenditures of $1,585 million**. These cash outflows, combined with a **drop in cash generated from operating activities** and a **negative impact of $62 million from exchange rate changes**, contributed to the decline from **$6,501 million to $5,029 million** during the period.  **[0000950170-24-138448_fdx-ex99_1.htm:8]** **[0000950170-24-138460_fdx-20241130.htm:38]** **[0000950170-24-138460_fdx-20241130.htm:3]** 

Why did cash and cash equivalents drop so low in Q2 2025?

The decline in **Total Assets** in Q2 2025 was primarily driven by a significant **reduction in cash and cash equivalents**—a drop of **$1,472 million** due to cash used in both financing activities (notably **treasury stock purchases** and **dividend payments**) and investing activities (primarily **capital expenditures**). Additionally, there were declines in **Goodwill** by **$133 million** and in **Other Long-Term Assets** by **$128 million**, which further contributed to the overall decline, partially offset by minor increases in receivables and spare parts, supplies, and fuel.  **[0000950170-24-138448_fdx-ex99_1.htm:8]** **[0000950170-24-138460_fdx-20241130.htm:3]** 

What factors contributed to the decline in total assets in Q2 2025?

The unusually high current portion of long-term debt in Q1 2025 is attributed to a reclassification of debt that is now due within the next 12 months. This reclassification, a standard accounting practice when debt nears its maturity, resulted in an increase from **$68 million as of Q3 2024** to **$622 million in Q1 2025**.  **[0000950170-24-108098_fdx-ex99_1.htm:8]** **[0000950170-24-108107_fdx-20240831.htm:2]** 

Why is the current portion of long-term debt unusually high in Q1 2025?
