**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(UNAUDITED)**

(1) <u>General</u>

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. These interim financial statements of FedEx Corporation ("FedEx") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") instructions for interim financial information, and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2022 ("Annual Report"). Significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been omitted since such items are disclosed in our Annual Report.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of February 28, 2023, and the results of our operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, and changes in common stockholders' investment for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 and 2022. Operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2023.

Except as otherwise specified, references to years indicate our fiscal year ending May 31, 2023 or ended May 31 of the year referenced and comparisons are to the corresponding period of the prior year.

REVENUE RECOGNITION.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract assets include billed and unbilled amounts resulting from in-transit shipments, as we have an unconditional right to payment only once all performance obligations have been completed (e.g., packages have been delivered). Contract assets are generally classified as current, and the full balance is converted each quarter based on the short-term nature of the transactions. Our contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue. The full balance of deferred revenue is converted each quarter based on the short-term nature of the transactions.

<sup>(1)</sup> International domestic revenue relates to our international intra-country operations.

<sup>(2)</sup> Includes the FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. ("FedEx Office"), FedEx Logistics, Inc. ("FedEx Logistics"), and FedEx Dataworks, Inc. ("FedEx Dataworks") operating segments.

EMPLOYEES UNDER COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ARRANGEMENTS. The pilots of Federal Express Corporation ("FedEx Express"), who are a small number of its total employees, are employed under a collective bargaining agreement that took effect on November 2, 2015, and became amendable in November 2021. Bargaining for a successor agreement began in May 2021 and continues. In November 2022, the National Mediation Board ("NMB") began actively mediating the negotiations. The NMB is the U.S. governmental agency that oversees labor agreements for entities covered by the Railway Labor Act of 1926, as amended. The conduct of mediated negotiations has no impact on our operations. A small number of our other employees are members of unions.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. We have two types of equity-based compensation: stock options and restricted stock. The key terms of the stock option and restricted stock awards granted under our outstanding incentive stock plans and all financial disclosures about these programs are set forth in our Annual Report.

Our stock-based compensation expense was $34 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2023 and $142 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2023. Our stock-based compensation expense was $39 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2022 and $151 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2022. Due to its immateriality, additional disclosures related to stock-based compensation have been excluded from this quarterly report.

BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION AND REALIGNMENT COSTS. In the first quarter of 2023, FedEx announced DRIVE, a comprehensive program to improve the company's long-term profitability. This program includes a business optimization plan to drive efficiency among our transportation segments and lower our overhead and support costs. At FedEx Express, we plan to reconfigure the air network, optimize sorts and surface linehaul, drive efficiencies in Europe, and harmonize the global clearance process. At FedEx Ground Package System, Inc. ("FedEx Ground"), we are transforming our pickup-and-delivery, package sortation, and transportation operations through enhanced planning tools, advanced data analytics, and increased focus on investment returns in order to drive efficiency improvements. Additionally, we plan to transform our back-office operations through automation, modernizing our infrastructure, and further consolidating the shared-services functions, resulting in procurement and other cost savings from shared and allocated overhead expenses. The DRIVE program will also facilitate the achievement of Network 2.0, a plan to consolidate sortation facilities and equipment, reduce pickup-and-delivery routes, and optimize our enterprise linehaul networks by moving beyond discrete collaboration to an end-to-end optimized network.

We incurred costs associated with our business optimization activities of $120 million ($92 million, net of tax, or $0.36 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $180 million ($138 million, net of tax, or $0.53 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023. These costs were primarily related to consulting services, severance and related costs associated with organizational changes announced in the third quarter of 2023, and idling our operations in Russia. These business optimization costs are included in Corporate, other, and eliminations and FedEx Express.

In 2021, FedEx Express announced a workforce reduction plan in Europe related to the network integration of TNT Express. The plan affected approximately 5,000 employees in Europe across operational teams and back-office functions and is substantially complete as of February 28, 2023.

We incurred costs associated with our business realignment activities of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax, or $0.01 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $17 million ($13 million, net of tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023. We incurred costs associated with our business realignment activities of $107 million ($82 million, net of tax, or $0.31 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $218 million ($168 million, net of tax, or $0.63 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2022. These costs are related to certain employee severance arrangements. Payments under this program totaled approximately $18 million in the third quarter and $102 million in the nine months of 2023. We expect the pre-tax cost of our business realignment activities to be approximately $415 million through 2023.

For additional information about the business optimization and realignment costs, see the section titled "Business Optimization and Realignment Costs" included in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q ("Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition").

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. Our risk management strategy includes the select use of derivative instruments to reduce the effects of volatility in foreign currency exchange exposure on operating results and cash flows. In accordance with our risk management policies, we do not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All derivative instruments are recognized in the financial statements at fair value, regardless of the purpose or intent for holding them.

When we become a party to a derivative instrument and intend to apply hedge accounting, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge, which includes designating the instrument for financial reporting purposes as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge, or a net investment hedge.

If a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness is recorded in other comprehensive income. For net investment hedges, the entire change in the fair value is recorded in other comprehensive income. Any portion of a change in the fair value of a derivative that is considered to be ineffective, along with the change in fair value of any derivatives not designated in a hedging relationship, is immediately recognized in the income statement. We do not have any derivatives designated as a cash flow hedge for any period presented. As of February 28, 2023, we had €136 million of debt designated as a net investment hedge to reduce the volatility of the U.S. dollar value of a portion of our net investment in a euro-denominated consolidated subsidiary. As of February 28, 2023, the hedge remains effective.

RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE. New accounting rules and disclosure requirements can significantly affect our reported results and the comparability of our financial statements. We believe the following new accounting guidance is relevant to the readers of our financial statements.

------

New Accounting Standards and Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), and in December 2022 subsequently issued ASU 2022-06, to temporarily ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The standard provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to existing contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance was effective upon issuance and can generally be applied through December 31, 2024. While there has been no material effect to our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows from reference rate reform as of February 28, 2023, we continue to monitor our contracts and transactions for potential application of this ASU.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832), which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3) the effect of those transactions on an entity's financial statements. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, which clarifies the guidance of measuring the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of the equity securities. Our historical accounting is consistent with these clarifications. We early adopted this standard effective September 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Topic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations, which requires a buyer in a supplier finance program (e.g., reverse factoring) to disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The amendments do not affect the recognition, measurement, or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. The changes will be effective June 1, 2023 (fiscal 2024). We are assessing the effect of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

EQUITY INVESTMENTS. Equity investments in private companies for which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for at cost, with adjustments for observable changes in prices or impairments, and are classified as "Other assets" on our consolidated balance sheets with adjustments recognized in "Other (expense) income, net" on our consolidated statements of income. Each reporting period, we perform a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether the investment is impaired. Our assessment includes a review of available recent operating results and trends, recent sales/acquisitions of the investee securities, and other publicly available data. If the investment is impaired, we write it down to its estimated fair value.

Equity investments that have readily determinable fair values, including investments for which we have elected the fair value option, are included in "Other assets" on our consolidated balance sheets and measured at fair value with changes recognized in "Other (expense) income, net" on our consolidated statements of income.

As of February 28, 2023, these investments were not material to our financial position or results of operations.

TREASURY SHARES. In December 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program of up to $5 billion of FedEx common stock. As part of the repurchase program, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreement with a bank in October 2022 to repurchase an aggregate of $1.5 billion of our common stock.

During the third quarter of 2023, the ASR transaction was completed, and 1.3 million shares were delivered under the ASR agreement. The final number of shares delivered upon settlement of the ASR agreement was determined based on a discount to the volume-weighted average price of our stock during the term of the transaction. The repurchased shares were accounted for as a reduction to common stockholders' investment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and resulted in a reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share. The 1.3 million shares delivered under the ASR agreement were the only shares of FedEx common stock we repurchased during the third quarter of 2023.

During the nine months ended February 28, 2023, we repurchased 9.2 million shares of FedEx common stock at an average price of $163.39 per share for a total of $1.5 billion. As of February 28, 2023, approximately $2.6 billion remained available to use for repurchases under the program.

------

Shares under the repurchase program may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and volume of repurchases are at the discretion of management, based on the capital needs of the business, the market price of FedEx common stock, and general market conditions. No time limits were set for the completion of the program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

DIVIDENDS DECLARED PER COMMON SHARE. On February 17, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $1.15 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on April 3, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 13, 2023. 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. There are no material restrictions on our ability to declare dividends, nor are there any material restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances.

(2) <u>Credit Losses</u>

We are exposed to credit losses primarily through our trade receivables. We assess ability to pay for certain customers by conducting a credit review, which considers the customer's established credit rating and our assessment of creditworthiness. We determine the allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable using a combination of specific reserves for accounts that are deemed to exhibit credit loss indicators and general reserves that are determined using loss rates based on historical write-offs by geography and recent forecasted information, including underlying economic expectations. We update our estimate of credit loss reserves quarterly, considering recent write-offs, collections information, and underlying economic expectations.

Credit losses were $111 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2023 and $536 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2023. Credit losses were $116 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2022 and $327 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2022. Our allowance for credit losses was $452 million at February 28, 2023 and $340 million at May 31, 2022.

(3) <u>Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss</u>

---

(4) <u>Financing Arrangements</u>

We have a shelf registration statement filed with the 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 FedEx Express to sell, in one or more future offerings, pass-through certificates.

------

FedEx Express has issued $970 million of Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2020-1AA (the "Certificates") with a fixed interest rate of 1.875% due in February 2034 utilizing pass-through trusts. The Certificates are secured by 19 Boeing aircraft with a net book value of $1.7 billion at February 28, 2023. The payment obligations of FedEx Express in respect of the Certificates are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by FedEx. FedEx Express is using the proceeds from the issuance for general corporate purposes.

We have a $2.0 billion five-year credit agreement (the "Five-Year Credit Agreement") and a $1.5 billion three-year credit agreement (the "Three-Year Credit Agreement" and together with the Five-Year Credit Agreement, the "Credit Agreements"). The Five-Year Credit Agreement expires in March 2026 and includes a $250 million letter of credit sublimit. The Three-Year Credit Agreement expires in March 2025. The Credit Agreements are available to finance our operations and other cash flow needs. As of February 28, 2023, no commercial paper was outstanding, and we had $250 million of the letter of credit sublimit unused under the Five-Year Credit Agreement. Outstanding commercial paper reduces the amount available to borrow under the Credit Agreements.

Our Credit Agreements contain a financial covenant requiring us to maintain a ratio of debt to consolidated earnings (excluding noncash retirement plans mark-to-market ("MTM") adjustments, noncash pension service costs, and noncash asset impairment charges) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") of not more than 3.5 to 1.0, calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter on a rolling four-quarters basis. The ratio of our debt to adjusted EBITDA was 1.99 to 1.0 at February 28, 2023.

The financial covenant discussed above is the only significant restrictive covenant in the Credit Agreements. The Credit Agreements contain other customary covenants that do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially restrict the conduct of our business. We are in compliance with the financial covenant and all other covenants in the Credit Agreements and do not expect the covenants to affect our operations, including our liquidity or expected funding needs. If we failed to comply with the financial covenant or any other covenants in the Credit Agreements, our access to financing could become limited.

Long-term debt, including current maturities and exclusive of finance leases, had carrying values of $19.7 billion at February 28, 2023 and $19.8 billion at May 31, 2022, compared with estimated fair values of $17.1 billion at February 28, 2023 and $18.8 billion at May 31, 2022. The annualized weighted-average interest rate on long-term debt was 3.5% at February 28, 2023. The estimated fair values were determined based on quoted market prices and the current rates offered for debt with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of our long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. This classification is defined as a fair value determined using market-based inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly.

(5) <u>Computation of Earnings Per Share</u> 

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the periods ended February 28 was as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

For 2023, no pension contributions are required for our tax-qualified U.S. domestic pension plans ("U.S. Pension Plans") as they are fully funded under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. We made voluntary contributions to our U.S. Pension Plans of $800 million during the nine months of 2023.

In the second quarter of 2022, we incurred a pre-tax, noncash MTM net loss of $36 million related to the U.S. FedEx Freight Pension Plan. During the second quarter of 2022, 21% of FedEx Freight Corporation ("FedEx Freight") employees elected to move from a pension/401(k) benefit structure to a new 401(k)-only structure with a higher company match effective January 1, 2022. The $36 million net loss consisted of a $75 million MTM loss due to a lower discount rate, partially offset by a $39 million curtailment gain.

We incurred an additional pre-tax, noncash MTM net loss of $224 million in the second quarter of 2022 related to the termination of the TNT Express Netherlands Pension Plan. Effective October 1, 2021, the responsibility of all pension assets and liabilities of this plan was transferred to a separate, multi-employer pension plan.

References to our transportation segments include, collectively, the FedEx Express segment, the FedEx Ground segment, and the FedEx Freight segment.

**FedEx Services Segment**

The FedEx Services segment operates combined sales, marketing, administrative, and information-technology functions in shared services operations for U.S. customers of our major business units and certain back-office support to our operating segments which allows us to obtain synergies from the combination of these functions. For the international regions of FedEx Express, some of these functions are performed on a regional basis and reported by FedEx Express in their natural expense line items.

The FedEx Services segment provides direct and indirect support to our operating segments, and we allocate all of the net operating costs of the FedEx Services segment to reflect the full cost of operating our businesses in the results of those segments. We review and evaluate the performance of our transportation segments based on operating income (inclusive of FedEx Services segment allocations). For the FedEx Services segment, performance is evaluated based on the effect of its total allocated net operating costs on our operating segments.

Operating expenses for each of our transportation segments include the allocations from the FedEx Services segment to the respective transportation segments. These allocations also include charges and credits for administrative services provided between operating companies. The allocations of net operating costs are based on metrics such as relative revenue or estimated services provided. We believe these allocations approximate the net cost of providing these functions. Our allocation methodologies are refined periodically, as necessary, to reflect changes in our businesses.

**Corporate, Other, and Eliminations** 

Corporate and other includes corporate headquarters costs for executive officers and certain legal and finance functions, including certain other costs and credits not attributed to our core business, as well as certain costs associated with developing our "innovate digitally" strategic pillar through our FedEx Dataworks operating segment. FedEx Dataworks is focused on creating solutions to transform the digital and physical experiences of our customers and team members. ShopRunner, Inc. was merged into FedEx Dataworks during the third quarter of 2023.

Also included in Corporate and other are the FedEx Office operating segment, which provides an array of document and business services and retail access to our customers for our package transportation businesses, and the FedEx Logistics operating segment, which provides integrated supply chain management solutions, specialty transportation, customs brokerage, and global ocean and air freight forwarding.

The results of Corporate, other, and eliminations are not allocated to the other business segments.

Certain FedEx operating companies provide transportation and related services for other FedEx companies outside their reportable segment in order to optimize our resources. Billings for such services are based on negotiated rates, which we believe approximate fair value, and are reflected as revenue of the billing segment. These rates are adjusted from time to time based on market conditions. Such intersegment revenue and expenses are eliminated in our consolidated results and are not separately identified in the following segment information because the amounts are not material.

The following table provides a reconciliation of reportable segment revenue and operating income (loss) to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement totals for the periods ended February 28 (in millions):

| Present value of lease liability | $509 | $17310 | $17819 | $539 | $18358 |

---

While certain of our lease agreements contain covenants governing the use of the leased assets or require us to maintain certain levels of insurance, none of our lease agreements include material financial covenants or limitations.

As of February 28, 2023, FedEx has entered into additional leases which have not yet commenced and are therefore not part of the right-of-use asset and liability. These leases are generally for build-to-suit facilities and have undiscounted future payments of approximately $2.3 billion that will commence when FedEx gains beneficial access to the leased asset. Commencement dates are expected to be from 2023 to 2024.

(9) <u>Contingencies</u>

Service Provider Lawsuits. FedEx Ground is defending lawsuits in which it is alleged that FedEx Ground should be treated as a joint employer of drivers employed by service providers engaged by FedEx Ground. These cases are in varying stages of litigation, and we are not currently able to estimate an amount or range of potential loss in all of these matters. However, we do not expect to incur, individually or in the aggregate, a material loss in these matters. Nevertheless, adverse determinations in these matters could, among other things, entitle service providers' drivers to certain wage payments from the service providers and FedEx Ground and result in employment and withholding tax and benefit liability for FedEx Ground. We continue to believe that FedEx Ground is not an employer or joint employer of the drivers of these independent businesses.

FedEx Services Employment Lawsuit. In May 2021, FedEx Services was named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas related to the termination of a former FedEx Services employee. The complaint alleged race discrimination and retaliation for complaints of discrimination under Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. After trial, on October 25, 2022, the jury found in favor of FedEx Services on the race discrimination claims but awarded the plaintiff compensatory damages of $1.16 million for emotional distress and punitive damages of $365 million for the retaliation claims. The court entered final judgment in the amount of the jury verdict. FedEx Services has appealed the verdict to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. FedEx Services will argue on appeal that plaintiff's claims were not timely filed, punitive damages are not warranted at all and, if allowed, must be reduced to no greater than a single-digit multiple of the award for compensatory damages based on the United States Supreme Court's ruling in State Farm v. Campbell, and the compensatory damages award must be reduced to conform with the evidence and the Fifth Circuit's maximum recovery rule. FedEx Services will argue in the alternative that a new trial should be granted.

------

FedEx believes ultimate compensatory and punitive damages and pre- and post-judgment interest up to $75 million will be covered by insurance, subject to a retention of $5 million. An immaterial loss accrual below the retention has been recorded in FedEx's consolidated financial statements.

FedEx Ground Negligence Lawsuit. In December 2022, FedEx Ground was named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed in Texas state court related to the alleged kidnapping and first-degree murder of a minor by a driver employed by a service provider engaged by FedEx Ground. The complaint alleges compensatory and punitive damages against FedEx Ground for negligent and gross negligent hiring and retention, as well as negligent entrustment. The service provider and driver are also named as defendants in the lawsuit. An immaterial loss accrual has been recorded in FedEx's consolidated financial statements. It is reasonably possible that an additional material loss could be incurred. Given the early stage of the litigation, we cannot estimate the amount or range of such additional loss, if any.

Other Matters. FedEx and its subsidiaries are subject to other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including certain lawsuits containing various class-action allegations of wage-and-hour violations in which plaintiffs claim, among other things, that they were forced to work "off the clock," were not paid overtime, or were not provided work breaks or other benefits, as well as other lawsuits containing allegations that FedEx and its subsidiaries are responsible for third-party losses related to vehicle accidents that could exceed our insurance coverage for such losses. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to these other actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Environmental Matters. SEC regulations require us to disclose certain information about proceedings arising under federal, state, or local environmental provisions if we reasonably believe that such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions above a stated threshold. Pursuant to the SEC regulations, FedEx uses a threshold of $1 million or more for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required. Applying this threshold, there are no environmental matters required to be disclosed for this period.

(10) <u>Supplemental Cash Flow Information</u>

Cash paid for interest expense and income taxes for the nine-month periods ended February 28 was as follows (in millions):

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

FedEx Corporation

**Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements**

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of FedEx Corporation (the Company) as of February 28, 2023, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and changes in common stockholders' investment for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "condensed consolidated interim financial statements"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of May 31, 2022, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in common stockholders' investment for the year then ended, and the related notes (not presented herein); and in our report dated July 18, 2022, we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2022 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

**Basis for Review Results** 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

<u>Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of</u> <u>Results of Operations and Financial Condition</u>

**GENERAL**

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition ("MD&A") describes the principal factors affecting the results of operations, liquidity, capital resources, and critical accounting estimates of FedEx Corporation ("FedEx"). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2022 ("Annual Report"). Our Annual Report includes additional information about our significant accounting policies, practices, and the transactions that underlie our financial results, as well as a detailed discussion of the most significant risks and uncertainties associated with our financial condition and operating results.

We provide a broad portfolio of transportation, e-commerce, and business services through companies competing collectively, operating collaboratively, and innovating digitally under the respected FedEx brand. Our primary operating companies are Federal Express Corporation ("FedEx Express"), the world's largest express transportation company; FedEx Ground Package System, Inc. ("FedEx Ground"), a leading North American provider of small-package ground delivery services; and FedEx Freight Corporation ("FedEx Freight"), a leading North American provider of less-than-truckload ("LTL") freight transportation services. These companies represent our major service lines and, along with FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. ("FedEx Services"), constitute our reportable segments.

Our FedEx Services segment provides sales, marketing, information technology, communications, customer service, technical support, billing and collection services, and certain back-office functions that support our operating segments. For the international regions of FedEx Express, some of these functions are performed on a regional basis and reported by FedEx Express in their natural expense line items. See "Reportable Segments" for further discussion. Additional information on our businesses can be found in our Annual Report.

Except as otherwise specified, references to years indicate our fiscal year ending May 31, 2023 or ended May 31 of the year referenced, and comparisons are to the corresponding period of the prior year. References to our transportation segments include, collectively, the FedEx Express segment, the FedEx Ground segment, and the FedEx Freight segment.

The key indicators necessary to understand our operating results include:

• the overall customer demand for our various services based on macroeconomic factors and the global economy;

• the volumes of transportation services provided through our networks, primarily measured by our average daily volume and shipment weight and size;

• the mix of services purchased by our customers;

• the prices we obtain for our services, primarily measured by yield (revenue per package or pound or revenue per shipment or hundredweight for LTL freight shipments);

• our ability to manage our cost structure (capital expenditures and operating expenses) to match shifting volume levels; and

• the timing and amount of fluctuations in fuel prices and our ability to recover incremental fuel costs through our fuel surcharges.

**Trends Affecting Our Business**

The following trends significantly impact the indicators discussed above, as well as our business and operating results. See the risk factors identified under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report, as updated by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, for more information. Additionally, see "Results of Operations – Consolidated Results – Outlook" and "Results of Operations – Consolidated Results – Liquidity Outlook" below for additional information on efforts we are taking to mitigate adverse trends.

Macroeconomic Conditions

While macroeconomic risks apply to most companies, we are particularly vulnerable. The transportation industry is highly cyclical and especially susceptible to trends in economic activity. Our primary business is to transport goods, so our business levels are directly tied to the purchase and production of goods and the rate of growth of global trade. Our results for the third quarter and nine months of 2023 were adversely impacted by lower global volumes due to weak economic conditions.

------

COVID-19 Pandemic and Supply Chain

The coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic had varying impacts on the demand for our services and our business operations and has contributed to global supply chain disruptions, particularly in 2022. We are shifting to operating in a more stable post-COVID-19 environment with less restrictions. Supply and demand trends are beginning to normalize resulting in improvements in the availability of labor and vehicles, trailers, and other package handling equipment.

Inflation and Interest Rates

Global inflation is well above normal and historical levels, impacting all areas of our business. Additionally, global interest rates are rising in an effort to curb inflation. We are experiencing a decline in demand for our transportation services as inflation and interest rate increases are negatively affecting consumer and business spending. Additionally, we are experiencing higher costs to serve through higher fuel prices, wage rates, purchased transportation costs, and other direct operating expenses such as operational supplies. We expect inflation and high interest rates to continue to negatively affect our results of operations for the remainder of 2023.

Fuel

We must purchase large quantities of fuel to operate our aircraft and vehicles, and the price and availability of fuel is beyond our control and can be highly volatile. The timing and amount of fluctuations in fuel prices and our ability to recover incremental fuel costs through our fuel surcharges can significantly affect our operating results. While fuel expense increased during the third quarter and nine months of 2023 compared to the third quarter and nine months of 2022 due to higher fuel prices, we were able to offset higher prices through yield management actions.

Geopolitical Conflicts

Given the nature of our business and our global operations, geopolitical conflicts may adversely affect our business and results of operations. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine that began in February 2022 continues as of the date of this quarterly report. The safety of our team members in Ukraine is our top priority. As we focus on the safety of our team members, we have suspended all services in Ukraine and Belarus. We also temporarily idled our operations in Russia and reduced our presence to the minimum required for purposes of maintaining a legal presence with active transport licenses. As a result, we incurred an immaterial amount of severance and other related expenses in the second quarter of 2023, which is included in business optimization expenses at FedEx Express for the nine months of 2023. While we do not expect this conflict to have a direct material impact on our business or results of operations, the broader consequences are adversely affecting the global economy and fuel prices generally and may also have the effect of heightening other risks disclosed in our Annual Report. See "Results of Operations – Consolidated Results – Business Optimization and Realignment Costs" below for additional information.

**RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

Many of our operating expenses are directly affected by revenue and volume levels, and we expect these operating expenses to fluctuate on a year-over-year basis consistent with changes in revenue and volumes. Therefore, the discussion of operating expense captions focuses on the key drivers and trends affecting expenses other than those factors strictly related to changes in revenue and volumes. The line item "Other operating expense" includes costs associated with outside service contracts (such as facility services and cargo handling, temporary labor, and security), insurance, professional fees, operational supplies, and bad debt.

**Overview**

Our results for the third quarter of 2023 continued to be negatively impacted by macroeconomic conditions, including inflation well above normal and historical levels, and rising global interest rates. In response to market conditions, we continued implementing cost reductions and focusing on yield improvement and revenue quality to mitigate the effect of volume declines. These cost reductions include reducing flight hours, temporarily parking aircraft, improving productivity, reducing certain peak wage programs, consolidating and closing sorts, canceling network capacity projects, and reducing select Sunday operations. Volume declines were partially offset by yield improvements, including fuel surcharge increases, resulting in a decrease in revenue in the third quarter and nine months of 2023.

Operating income includes $120 million ($92 million, net of tax, or $0.36 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $180 million ($138 million, net of tax, or $0.53 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023 associated with our business optimization strategy announced in 2023. Operating income also includes business realignment costs of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax, or $0.01 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $17 million ($13 million, net of tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023 associated with our workforce reduction plan in Europe announced in 2021. We recognized $107 million ($82 million, net of tax, or $0.31 per diluted share) of costs in the third quarter of 2022 and $218 million ($168 million, net of tax, or $0.63 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2022 under this program. See the "Business Optimization and Realignment Costs" section of this MD&A for more information.

Operating income included TNT Express integration expenses of $29 million ($23 million, net of tax, or $0.08 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $92 million ($71 million, net of tax, or $0.27 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2022.

Consolidated net income in the nine months of 2022 included a pre-tax, noncash net loss of $260 million ($195 million, net of tax; $0.73 per diluted share) associated with our mark-to-market retirement plans accounting adjustments. See Note 6 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

The comparison of net income between 2023 and 2022 is affected by a tax benefit of $78 million ($0.29 per diluted share) recognized in 2022 related to revisions of prior-year tax estimates for actual tax return results. See the "Income Taxes" section of this MD&A for additional information.

------

In December 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $5 billion of FedEx common stock. As part of the repurchase program, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreement with a bank in October 2022, which was completed in December 2022, to repurchase an aggregate of $1.5 billion of our common stock. Share repurchases had a benefit of $0.10 per diluted share for the third quarter and $0.17 per diluted share for the nine months of 2023. See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, "Financial Condition—Liquidity" below, and Part II, Item 2. "Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds" of this Form 10-Q for additional information on our repurchase program.

Revenue decreased 6% in the third quarter and 1% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to global volume declines at all of our transportation segments, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges.

FedEx Express revenue decreased 8% in the third quarter and 5% in the nine months of 2023 due to lower global volume and unfavorable foreign currency, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges. In the third quarter and nine months of 2023, revenue at Corporate, other, and eliminations decreased due to lower volumes and yields at FedEx Logistics, Inc. ("FedEx Logistics"). FedEx Freight revenue decreased 3% in the third quarter and increased 9% in the nine months of 2023. The third quarter decrease was primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges. The nine-months increase was primarily due to yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges, partially offset by lower volume. Revenue at FedEx Ground decreased 2% in the third quarter and increased 2% in the nine months of 2023. The third quarter decrease was primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges. The nine-months increase was primarily due to yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges, partially offset by lower volumes.

---

Operating income declined in the third quarter and nine months of 2023 primarily due to lower volumes at each of our transportation segments, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges, as well as cost reductions such as reducing flight hours, temporarily parking aircraft, improving productivity, reducing certain peak wage programs, consolidating and closing sorts, and reducing select Sunday operations. These cost reductions more than offset the effects of global inflation, which drove higher operating expenses related to fuel, other operating expenses, salaries and employee benefits, and purchased transportation.

Fuel expense increased 12% in the third quarter and 42% in the nine months of 2023 due to higher fuel prices, partially offset by lower usage. Other operating expenses increased 4% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to higher self-insurance accruals and bad debt, partially offset by favorable foreign currency impacts, lower professional fees, and lower outside service contract expense. Purchased transportation decreased 14% in the third quarter and 7% in the nine months due to lower volume and favorable currency impacts, partially offset by increased fuel prices and lower productivity. Salaries and employee benefits decreased 5% in the third quarter and 3% in the nine months due to decreased staffing to align with lower volumes, favorable currency impacts, and lower variable incentive compensation, partially offset by increased wage rates.

**Business Optimization and Realignment Costs**

In the first quarter of 2023, FedEx announced DRIVE, a comprehensive program to improve the company's long-term profitability. This program includes a business optimization plan to drive efficiency among our transportation segments and lower our overhead and support costs. At FedEx Express, we plan to reconfigure the air network, optimize sorts and surface linehaul, drive efficiencies in Europe, and harmonize the global clearance process. At FedEx Ground, we are transforming our pickup-and-delivery, package sortation, and transportation operations through enhanced planning tools, advanced data analytics, and increased focus on investment returns in order to drive efficiency improvements. Additionally, we plan to transform our back-office operations through automation, modernizing our infrastructure, and further consolidating the shared-services functions, resulting in procurement and other cost savings from shared and allocated overhead expenses. The DRIVE program will also facilitate the achievement of Network 2.0, a plan to consolidate sortation facilities and equipment, reduce pickup-and-delivery routes, and optimize our enterprise linehaul network by moving beyond discrete collaboration to an end-to-end optimized network.

We incurred costs associated with our business optimization activities of $120 million ($92 million, net of tax, or $0.36 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $180 million ($138 million, net of tax, or $0.53 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023. These costs were primarily related to consulting services, severance and related costs associated with organizational changes announced in the third quarter of 2023, and idling our operations in Russia. These business optimization costs are included in Corporate, other, and eliminations and FedEx Express. We expect the pre-tax cost of our business optimization activities to be approximately $2.0 billion through 2025.

In 2021, FedEx Express announced a workforce reduction plan in Europe related to the network integration of TNT Express. The plan affected approximately 5,000 employees in Europe across operational teams and back-office functions and is substantially complete as of February 28, 2023.

We incurred costs associated with our business realignment activities of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax, or $0.01 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $17 million ($13 million, net of tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2023. We incurred costs associated with our business realignment activities of $107 million ($82 million, net of tax, or $0.31 per diluted share) in the third quarter and $218 million ($168 million, net of tax, or $0.63 per diluted share) in the nine months of 2022. These costs are related to certain employee severance arrangements. Payments under this program totaled approximately $18 million in the third quarter and $102 million in the nine months of 2023. We expect the pre-tax cost of our business realignment activities to be approximately $415 million through 2023. We expect savings from our business realignment activities to be approximately $275 million on an annualized basis beginning in 2024.

**Income Taxes**

Our effective tax rate was 24.6% for the third quarter and 24.8% for the nine months of 2023, compared to 19.1% for the third quarter and 22.4% for the nine months of 2022. The 2023 tax rates were unfavorably impacted primarily by lower earnings in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. The tax rates for 2022 include a benefit of $78 million related to revisions of prior-year tax estimates for actual tax return results.

On August 16, 2022, the president signed the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate minimum tax effective in 2024, a 1% tax on share repurchases after December 31, 2022, and created and extended certain tax-related energy incentives. We currently do not expect the tax-related provisions of the IRA to have a material effect on our financial results.

We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and various U.S. state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. We are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2016 through 2019 tax years. It is reasonably possible that certain income tax return proceedings will be completed during the next 12 months and could result in a change in our balance of unrecognized tax benefits. However, we believe we have recorded adequate amounts of tax, including interest and penalties, for any adjustments expected to occur.

During 2021, we filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee challenging the validity of a tax regulation related to the one-time transition tax on unrepatriated foreign earnings, which was enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA"). Our lawsuit seeks to have the court declare this regulation invalid and order the refund of overpayments of U.S. federal income taxes for 2018 and 2019 attributable to the denial of foreign tax credits under the regulation. We have recorded a cumulative benefit of $223 million through the third quarter of 2023 attributable to our interpretation of the TCJA and the Internal Revenue Code. We continue to pursue this lawsuit; however, if we are ultimately unsuccessful in defending our position, we may be required to reverse the benefit previously recorded.

------

**Outlook**

In the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect macroeconomic conditions to continue to negatively impact revenue and operating profit. In addition, we expect reduced customer demand for our U.S. freight product at FedEx Express. We will continue to execute on the previously identified cost reduction actions and identify additional opportunities to reduce cost in order to mitigate the impact of volume declines on our operating results. As part of these reductions, we will manage capacity to lower demand levels, including further reducing flight hours at FedEx Express, and reducing Sunday operations, closing certain sort operations, and taking other linehaul expense actions at FedEx Ground. We are executing targeted actions to reduce shared and allocated overhead expenses, reducing vendor utilization, deferring certain technology projects, and discontinuing Same Day City operations at FedEx Office. In addition, we expect to achieve savings related to headcount attrition, and the elimination of certain global officer and director positions, previously announced in the third quarter of 2023. We remain focused on yield improvement and revenue quality to mitigate inflationary cost pressures and expect higher yields to have a favorable effect on our 2023 operating profit.

In the first quarter of 2023, FedEx announced DRIVE, a comprehensive program to improve the company's long-term profitability. This program includes a business optimization plan to drive efficiency among our transportation segments and lower our overhead and support costs. We plan to consolidate our sortation facilities and equipment, reduce pickup-and-delivery routes, and optimize our enterprise linehaul network by moving beyond discrete collaboration to an end-to-end optimized network. We expect the pre-tax cost of our business optimization activities to be approximately $2.0 billion through 2025.

During 2023, we expect to complete the initial scope of initiatives aimed to transform and optimize the FedEx Express international business, particularly in Europe. These actions are focused on reducing the complexity and fragmentation of our international business, improving efficiency to meet changing customer expectations and business dynamics, lowering costs, increasing profitability, and improving service levels. As part of this strategy, in 2021 we announced a workforce reduction plan in Europe, which is substantially complete as of February 28, 2023. We expect savings from our business realignment activities to be approximately $275 million on an annualized basis beginning in 2024.

See the "Business Optimization and Realignment Costs" section of this MD&A for additional information.

The uncertainty of a slowing global economy, global inflation well above normal and historical levels, geopolitical challenges including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the impact these factors will have on the rate of growth of global trade, supply chains, fuel prices, and our business in particular, make any expectations for the remainder of 2023 inherently less certain. See the "Trends Affecting Our Business" and "Critical Accounting Estimates" sections of this MD&A for additional information.

**RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE**

See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting guidance.

**REPORTABLE SEGMENTS**

FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Freight represent our major service lines and, along with FedEx Services, constitute our reportable segments. Our reportable segments include the following businesses:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **FedEx Express Segment** | FedEx Express (express transportation, small-package ground delivery, and freight transportation) |
|  | FedEx Custom Critical, Inc. (time-critical transportation) |
| **FedEx Ground Segment** | FedEx Ground (small-package ground delivery) |
| **FedEx Freight Segment** | FedEx Freight (LTL freight transportation) |
| **FedEx Services Segment** | FedEx Services (sales, marketing, information technology, communications, customer service, technical support, billing and collection services, and back-office functions) |

---

**FEDEX SERVICES SEGMENT**

The FedEx Services segment provides direct and indirect support to our operating segments, and we allocate all of the net operating costs of the FedEx Services segment to reflect the full cost of operating our businesses in the results of those segments. We review and evaluate the performance of our transportation segments based on operating income (inclusive of FedEx Services segment allocations). For the FedEx Services segment, performance is evaluated based on the effect of its total allocated net operating costs on our operating segments.

Operating expenses for each of our transportation segments include the allocations from the FedEx Services segment to the respective transportation segments. These allocations include charges and credits for administrative services provided between operating companies. The allocations of net operating costs are based on metrics such as relative revenue or estimated services provided. We believe these allocations approximate the net cost of providing these functions. Our allocation methodologies are refined periodically, as necessary, to reflect changes in our businesses.

**CORPORATE, OTHER, AND ELIMINATIONS**

Corporate and other includes corporate headquarters costs for executive officers and certain legal and finance functions, including certain other costs and credits not attributed to our core business, as well as certain costs associated with developing our "innovate digitally" strategic pillar through our FedEx Dataworks, Inc. ("FedEx Dataworks") operating segment. FedEx Dataworks is focused on creating solutions to transform the digital and physical experiences of our customers and team members. ShopRunner, Inc. was merged into FedEx Dataworks during the third quarter of 2023.

Also included in Corporate and other are the FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. operating segment, which provides an array of document and business services and retail access to our customers for our package transportation businesses, and the FedEx Logistics, Inc. operating segment, which provides integrated supply chain management solutions, specialty transportation, customs brokerage, and global ocean and air freight forwarding.

The results of Corporate, other, and eliminations are not allocated to the other business segments.

In the third quarter and nine months of 2023, the decrease in operating results in Corporate, other, and eliminations was primarily due to lower operating income at FedEx Logistics due to decreased revenue and an increase in bad debt, partially offset by decreased purchased transportation expense. Additionally, operating results in Corporate, other, and eliminations were negatively impacted by increased business optimization costs at FedEx Corporate.

Certain FedEx operating companies provide transportation and related services for other FedEx companies outside their reportable segment in order to optimize our resources. For example, during the third quarter and nine months of 2023 FedEx Ground provided delivery support for certain FedEx Express packages as part of our last-mile optimization efforts, and FedEx Freight provided road and intermodal support for both FedEx Ground and FedEx Express. In addition, FedEx Express is working with FedEx Logistics to secure air charters and other cargo space for U.S. customers. Billings for such services are based on negotiated rates, which we believe approximate fair value, and are reflected as revenue of the billing segment. These rates are adjusted from time to time based on market conditions. Such intersegment revenue and expenses are eliminated in our consolidated results and are not separately identified in the following segment information because the amounts are not material.

**FEDEX EXPRESS SEGMENT**

FedEx Express offers a wide range of U.S. domestic and international shipping services for delivery of packages and freight including priority, deferred, and economy services, which provide delivery on a time-definite or day-definite basis.

**FedEx Express Segment Revenue**

FedEx Express segment revenue decreased 8% in the third quarter and 5% in the nine months of 2023 due to decreased global volume and unfavorable exchange rates, partially offset by package yield improvement.

Total average daily package volume decreased 10% in the third quarter and 11% in the nine months of 2023, and total average daily freight pounds decreased 12% in the third quarter and nine months of 2023, due to reduced demand for our services. Yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges, drove increases in U.S. domestic package yield of 11% in the third quarter and 15% in the nine months of 2023, international export package yield of 3% in the nine months of 2023, and composite freight yield of 5% in the nine months of 2023. International export package yield decreased 3% in the third quarter of 2023 due to unfavorable exchange rates and base yield declines, partially offset by higher fuel surcharges. Additionally, unfavorable exchange rates negatively impacted all international package and freight yields in the third quarter and nine months of 2023.

**FedEx Express Segment Operating Income**

FedEx Express segment operating income decreased 77% in the third quarter and 69% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to global volume declines, partially offset by yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges. We continued cost reductions during the third quarter of 2023 to mitigate the impact of volume declines, including reducing flight hours, temporarily parking aircraft, improving productivity, and consolidating routes and closing sorts. The impact of these cost reductions lagged volume declines, and operating expenses remained high relative to demand in the third quarter and nine months of 2023. Currency exchange rates had a negative effect on revenue, a positive effect on expenses, and a slightly negative effect on operating income in the third quarter and nine months of 2023.

Fuel expense increased 13% in the third quarter and 43% in the nine months of 2023. The third quarter increase was due to a 31% increase in fuel prices, partially offset by a 13% decline in total fuel gallons. The nine-months increase was due to a 54% increase in fuel prices, partially offset by a 7% decline in total fuel gallons. Purchased transportation expense decreased 12% in the third quarter and 10% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to favorable exchange rates and lower utilization. Salaries and employee benefits decreased 4% in the third quarter and 3% in the nine months of 2023 due to favorable currency exchange rates, decreased staffing to align with lower volume, and lower variable incentive compensation, partially offset by increased wage rates. Rentals and landing fees decreased 12% in the third quarter and 10% in the nine months of 2023 due to decreased aircraft leases and favorable currency exchange rates. Other operating expense decreased 6% in the third quarter and 1% in the nine months of 2023 due to favorable currency exchange rates and lower outside service contract expense, partially offset by higher bad debt expense.

FedEx Express segment results include business realignment costs of $3 million in the third quarter and $17 million in the nine months of 2023 associated with our workforce reduction plan in Europe. We recognized $107 million of costs in the third quarter of 2022 and $218 million in the nine months of 2022 under this program. No business optimization costs were incurred in the third quarter of 2023 at FedEx Express. FedEx Express segment results include business optimization costs of $11 million in the nine months of 2023, which includes costs associated with idling our business in Russia. See the "Business Optimization and Realignment Costs" section of this MD&A for more information.

FedEx Express segment results include $24 million of TNT Express integration expenses in the third quarter and $77 million of such expenses in the nine months of 2022.

The nine-months increase was primarily due to yield improvement, partially offset by lower volumes.

FedEx Ground yield increased 11% in the third quarter and 12% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to higher fuel surcharges, base yield improvement, and a mix shift towards higher-yielding business-to-consumer products in the third quarter and nine months of 2023. Total average daily volume decreased 11% in the third quarter and 8% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to reduced demand for our services.

------

**FedEx Ground Segment Operating Income**

FedEx Ground segment operating income increased 32% in the third quarter and 19% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to yield improvement, including higher fuel surcharges, partially offset by lower volume and other operating expenses. The third quarter and nine months of 2023 results benefited from certain cost reductions to mitigate the effect of volume declines, primarily a reduction in peak wage programs, the consolidation and closing of certain sort and linehaul operations, cancellation of network capacity projects, and reduced Sunday delivery coverage.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased 10% in the third quarter and 5% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to decreased staffing to align with lower volume, lower variable incentive compensation, and increased productivity, partially offset by higher wage rates. Purchased transportation expense decreased 7% in the third quarter and 2% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by higher fuel prices and lower productivity. Other operating expense increased 7% in the third quarter and 12% in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to higher self-insurance accruals and higher outside service contracts expense, partially offset by lower bad debt expense.

Cash flows from operating activities decreased $929 million in the nine months of 2023 primarily due to lower net income. Capital expenditures increased during the nine months of 2023 due to increased spending on package handling equipment and vehicles and trailers, partially offset by decreased aircraft and information technology spending. See "Capital Resources" for a discussion of capital expenditures during 2023 and 2022.

In December 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $5 billion of FedEx common stock. As part of the repurchase program, during the third quarter of 2023, we completed an ASR agreement with a bank to repurchase an aggregate of $1.5 billion of our common stock. See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, "Liquidity Outlook" below, and Part II, Item 2 "Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds" for additional information. As of February 28, 2023, $2.6 billion remained available for repurchases under the current stock repurchase program. Shares under the current repurchase program may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and volume of repurchases are at the discretion of management based on the capital needs of the business, the market price of FedEx common stock, and general market conditions. No time limits were set for the completion of the program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

**CAPITAL RESOURCES**

Our operations are capital intensive, characterized by significant investments in aircraft, package handling and sort equipment, vehicles and trailers, technology, and facilities. The amount and timing of capital investments depend on various factors, including pre-existing contractual commitments, anticipated volume growth, domestic and international economic conditions, new or enhanced services, geographical expansion of services, availability of satisfactory financing, and actions of regulatory authorities.

The $19.1 billion principal amount of the senior unsecured notes were issued by FedEx under a shelf registration statement and are guaranteed by certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of FedEx ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"). FedEx owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of each Guarantor Subsidiary. The guarantees are (1) unsecured obligations of the respective Guarantor Subsidiary, (2) rank equally with all of their other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, and (3) are full and unconditional and joint and several. If we sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all of the capital stock or all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor Subsidiary to any person that is not an affiliate of FedEx, the guarantee of that Guarantor Subsidiary will terminate, and holders of debt securities will no longer have a direct claim against such subsidiary under the guarantee.

Additionally, FedEx fully and unconditionally guarantees the payment obligation of FedEx Express in respect of the $840 million principal amount of the Certificates. See Note 4 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and Note 7 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report for additional information regarding the terms of the Certificates.

**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 challenging macroeconomic environment, inflationary pressures, rising fuel prices, and geopolitical conflicts. We have $5.4 billion in cash at February 28, 2023 and $3.5 billion in available liquidity under our $2.0 billion five-year credit agreement (the "Five-Year Credit Agreement") and $1.5 billion three-year credit agreement (the "Three-Year Credit Agreement" and together with the Five-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, and dividend payments.

Our cash and cash equivalents balance at February 28, 2023 includes $2.3 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 expect capital expenditures of approximately $5.9 billion in 2023. We expect our capital spend to be lower compared to 2022 due to lower aircraft fleet modernization spend. We invested $1.3 billion in aircraft and related equipment in the nine months of 2023 and expect to invest an additional $0.2 billion for aircraft and related equipment during the remainder of 2023. Included within our expected 2023 capital expenditures are our continued investments in the FedEx Express Indianapolis hub and FedEx Express Memphis World Hub, which are expected to total $1.5 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, over the life of each project. While we continue to invest in our business, the capital intensity relative to revenue is expected to remain below historical levels.

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 impact on our financial condition or liquidity.

We have several aircraft modernization programs underway that are supported by the purchase of Boeing 777 Freighter and Boeing 767-300 Freighter 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.

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 FedEx Express to sell, in one or more future offerings, pass-through certificates.

The Five-Year Credit Agreement expires in March 2026 and includes a $250 million letter of credit sublimit. The Three-Year Credit Agreement expires in March 2025. The Credit Agreements are available to finance our operations and other cash flow needs.

During the nine months of 2023, we made voluntary contributions totaling $800 million to our tax-qualified U.S. domestic pension plans ("U.S. Pension Plans"). We do not expect to make any additional contributions to our U.S. Pension Plans in the fourth quarter of 2023. There are currently no required minimum contributions to our U.S. Pension Plans based on our funded status and the fact we have a credit balance related to our cumulative excess voluntary pension contributions over those required that exceeds $3.8 billion. The credit balance is subtracted from plan assets to determine the minimum funding requirements. Therefore, we could eliminate all required contributions to our principal U.S. Pension Plans for several years if we were to choose to waive part of that credit balance in any given year. Our U.S. Pension Plans have ample funds to meet expected benefit payments.

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." If our credit ratings drop, our interest expense may increase. If our commercial paper ratings drop below current levels, we may have difficulty utilizing the commercial paper market. If our senior unsecured debt credit ratings drop below investment grade, our access to financing may become limited.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES**

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make significant judgments and estimates to develop amounts reflected and disclosed in the financial statements. In many cases, there are alternative policies or estimation techniques that could be used. We maintain a thorough process to review the application of our accounting policies and to evaluate the appropriateness of the many estimates that are required to prepare the financial statements of a complex, global corporation. However, even under optimal circumstances, estimates routinely require adjustment based on changing circumstances and new or better information.

------

GOODWILL. Goodwill is tested for impairment between annual tests whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit has fallen below its carrying value. Ongoing weak global economic conditions had a negative impact on our overall earnings and the profitability of our reporting units during 2023, which has reduced our market capitalization. However, we do not believe that these factors indicate that the fair value of our reporting units has more likely than not fallen below their carrying values as of February 28, 2023. There is risk, however, if economic conditions deteriorate further, that we could record a noncash impairment charge relating to goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2023 in connection with our annual impairment tests for one or more of our reporting units, particularly at FedEx Express. For additional details on goodwill impairment testing, refer to Note 1 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report.

Information regarding our critical accounting estimates can be found in our Annual Report, including Note 1 to the financial statements therein. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit and Finance Committee of our Board of Directors and with our independent registered public accounting firm.

As a result of these and other factors, no assurance can be given as to our future results and achievements. Accordingly, a forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances and those future events or circumstances may not occur. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We are under no obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

<u>Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitat</u><u>ive Disclosures About Market Risk</u>

As of February 28, 2023, there were no material changes in our market risk sensitive instruments and positions since our disclosures in our Annual Report.

The principal foreign currency exchange rate risks to which we are exposed relate to the euro, Chinese yuan, British pound, Canadian dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, and Mexican peso. Historically, our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is more significant with respect to our revenue than our expenses, as a significant portion of our expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, such as aircraft and fuel expenses. During the first nine months of 2023, the U.S. dollar strengthened relative to the currencies of the foreign countries in which we operate, as compared to the first nine months of 2022, and this strengthening had a slightly negative effect on our results.

While we have market risk for changes in the price of vehicle and jet fuel, this risk is largely mitigated by our indexed fuel surcharges. For additional discussion of our indexed fuel surcharges, see the "Results of Operations and Outlook — Consolidated Results —Fuel" section of "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" included in our Annual Report.

------

<u>Item 4. Controls</u> <u>and Procedures</u>

The management of FedEx, with the participation of our principal executive and financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, including ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to FedEx management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of February 28, 2023 (the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).

During the third quarter of 2023, we successfully completed a significant migration to an enterprise resource planning cloud-based financial system for a number of our domestic operating companies, building on the phased migration plan which began with our international operating companies in prior years. We implemented new internal controls in conjunction with the migration. During our fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2023, no change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting, including the new controls described above, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We continue to monitor and assess the effects of remote work on our internal controls to minimize the impact on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Additional migrations to the cloud-based financial system will occur through 2024 and will result in further changes to our internal controls over financial reporting. As changes occur, we will evaluate quarterly whether such changes materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

<u>Item 1. Legal</u> <u>Proceedings</u>

For a description of all material pending legal proceedings, see Note 9 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference herein.

<u>Item 1A. Ri</u><u>sk Factors</u>

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 operations, financial condition, and the price of our common stock.

**Our future financial results will suffer, and we may not be able to achieve our 2025 financial performance goals, if we fail to successfully implement our cost reductions and program to improve long-term profitability.** We are making significant decisions in connection with our long-term business strategy. In addition to the initiatives and enhancements discussed in our Annual Report, in the first quarter of 2023, we announced a comprehensive program to improve FedEx's long-term profitability. We are also continuing to implement cost reductions to mitigate the effect of volume declines. See Item 2 of this quarterly report ("Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition") under "Results of Operations – Consolidated Results – Outlook" for additional information.

We may not be able to achieve the expected operational efficiencies, cost savings, and other benefits from these initiatives and enhancements. The actual amount and timing of costs to be incurred and related cost savings resulting from these initiatives and enhancements may differ from our current expectations and estimates. These initiatives and enhancements could result in asset impairment charges. Changes in our business strategy may also expose us to new and heightened risks. If we are not able to successfully implement our cost reductions and program to improve long-term profitability, our future financial results will suffer and we may not be able to achieve our 2025 financial performance goals.

------

**Our failure to meet our purchased transportation needs, as well as increases in purchased transportation costs, could adversely impact our business and results of operations.** Our ability to meet our purchased transportation needs while controlling related costs is generally subject to numerous external factors, including the availability of qualified service providers and persons in the markets where service providers operate and unemployment levels within these markets, prevailing and competitive wage rates and other benefits, fuel and energy prices and availability, changes in the business or financial soundness of service providers, interest in contracting with FedEx, inflation, safety levels of our operations, our reputation within the transportation market, the effect of a widespread public health crisis, the availability of child care, and vaccine mandates that may be announced in jurisdictions in which our service providers operate. Additionally, certain service providers (acting collectively or in coordination in some instances) may seek to increase pay rates or modify contract terms and may refuse to provide service to FedEx in connection with such initiatives. While we believe we will be able to effectively meet our purchased transportation needs during the remainder of 2023, our inability to do so could increase our costs, hinder our ability to execute our business strategy, negatively impact service levels, and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

**Changes in the business or financial soundness of the U.S. Postal Service ("USPS"), including strategic changes to its operations to reduce its reliance on the air network of FedEx Express, are likely to have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.** The USPS is the largest customer of FedEx Express, which provides domestic air transportation services for the USPS's First Class Mail, Priority Mail Express, and Priority Mail and transportation and delivery for the USPS's international delivery service. See "Item 1. Business" of our Annual Report under "FedEx Express Segment" for more information.

Pursuant to previously announced plans to restructure its operations, the USPS continues to implement strategic changes to its operations to reduce its reliance on the air network of FedEx Express, which had an immaterial negative impact on our results of operations in the third quarter of 2023. FedEx Express expects lower volumes from the USPS in the fourth quarter of 2023 and in 2024. Additional changes in the USPS's business, including further structural changes to its operations, network, volume levels, service offerings, service commitments, or pricing, could have additional negative impacts on our revenue, results of operations, and financial condition. The USPS's contract with FedEx Express for domestic services expires on September 29, 2024, and there is no assurance that the contract will be renewed on terms that are commercially acceptable to FedEx.

In December 2021, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to $5 billion of FedEx common stock. Shares under the program may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. As of March 14, 2023, $2.6 billion remains available to be used for repurchases under the program, which is the only such program that currently exists. The program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

As part of the repurchase program, we entered into an ASR agreement with a bank in October 2022 to repurchase $1.5 billion of our common stock. During the third quarter of 2023, the ASR transaction was completed, and 1.3 million shares were delivered under the ASR agreement. The shares delivered under the ASR agreement were the only shares of FedEx common stock we repurchased during the third quarter of 2023.

See Note 1 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the ASR transaction.

<u>Item 5. Other Information</u>

Disclosure Pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act. As part of its intellectual property ("IP") protection efforts, FedEx has obtained and maintains patents and trademarks in Iran. Periodically, FedEx pays renewal fees, through IP service providers located in Lebanon, to the Iran Intellectual Property Office ("IIPO") for these patents and trademarks and has sought to prosecute and defend such trademarks. On September 15, 2021, OFAC granted FedEx a specific license to make payments to IIPO at its account in Bank Melli, which was designated on November 5, 2018 by OFAC under its counterterrorism authority pursuant to Executive Order 13224. As authorized by OFAC's specific license, in the quarter ended February 28, 2023, FedEx paid $120 to IIPO as part of its intellectual property protection efforts in Iran. FedEx plans to continue these activities, as authorized under the specific license.
