FedEx reported revenue of $21.6 billion and adjusted earnings of $3.60 per share, well below our estimates of $22.1 billion, and $4.90, respectively.

Those pressures do not appear to be easing. In its fiscal 2025 first quarter, which ended Aug. 31, FedEx earned $3.60 per share on revenue of $21.6 billion, falling short of Wall Street's consensus estimates for earnings of $4.76 per share on sales of $21.9 billion.

FedEx stock fell 11% after disappointing Q1 earnings and lowered guidance, but the sell-off may have been an overreaction, given the modest EPS guidance reduction. FedEx remains profitable, is focused on cost savings, and now trades at an attractive price for long-term investors.

FedEx’s results were dragged down by weaker-than-expected demand, particularly in the U.S. domestic package market.
