Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report in response to Part I, Item 1A of Form 10-K. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, results of reporting, financial condition, and the price of our common stock.

We may not be able to achieve our calendar 2029 financial performance targets. On February 12, 2026, we announced a comprehensive multi-year financial framework with financial performance targets for 2029. Our ability to achieve these goals is dependent on a number of factors, including the other risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025.We may fail to achieve our long-term financial performance targets if we are unsuccessful in implementing our strategies, our estimates or assumptions change, or for any other reason. If we are not able to achieve these targets, there could be an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition, and the price of our common stock may be negatively affected.

We may not achieve the expected strategic or financial benefits relating to our investment InPost. We, as a member of a consortium, have entered into a conditional agreement on an intended recommended all-cash public offer for all issued and outstanding shares of InPost S.A. (“InPost”), which offer is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions. Following the completion of the offer, the consortium will be structured with FedEx holding 37%, and thereafter InPost and FedEx intend to enter into arm’s length commercial agreements.

Because InPost would continue to operate as a standalone company and we would not control this entity and must rely on the actions of other investors and the management of the entity, we may not be able to influence key strategic or operational decisions. In addition, delays in obtaining required regulatory approvals or completing the related commercial arrangements (or failure to obtain such approvals or complete such arrangements) could adversely affect the timing or value of the investment.

Even if the regulatory approvals are obtained and other conditions met and our commercial arrangements with InPost are finalized, there can be no assurance that our investment and the commercial agreements will achieve the strategic or financial benefits we currently expect.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In March 2024, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for repurchases of up to $5.0 billion of FedEx common stock. We did not repurchase any shares during the third quarter of 2026.

As of March 19, 2026, approximately $1.3 billion remained available to be used for repurchases under the 2024 stock repurchase program. Shares under the program may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. No time limits were set for completion of the program; however, we may decide to suspend or discontinue the program.

See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition – Financial Condition – Liquidity Outlook” for additional information.
