FedEx stock slips as freight spin-off and Q4 sales stand out

FedEx Corp. (US31428X1063) traded at $327.40 on August 28, 2026, with the shares down 1.05% at the close and 0.17% after hours. The same session came with a 52-week range of $178.33 to $345.37 and a market cap of $77.486 billion.
Q4 numbers still matter
The latest quarter that is clearly dated in the available market data was the period ended May 31, 2026, with revenue of $25.01 billion and earnings of $6.60 per share. Revenue rose 12.54% from $22.22 billion a year earlier, while EPS eased from $6.88 in the prior-year quarter.
That comparison keeps the focus on execution after the June 2026 FedEx Freight spin-off, because the core parcel business now carries a larger share of the group's revenue mix. The stock's one-year return of 75.84% and year-to-date gain of 40.66% show that investors have already paid up for the transition.
Guidance and valuation
Market data compiled for FDX shows an EPS trailing figure of 18.56, a forward price target average of $356.37, and a trailing P/E of 17.64. The gap between the latest close and the average target leaves room for debate over how much of the operational reset is already in the price.
At the same time, the share sits only 5.25% below its August 16, 2026 high of $345.00, which keeps the chart close to resistance. A volume reading of 1,899,642 shares on the latest session adds a trading reference point for investors watching whether momentum can extend.
FedEx Express core
FedEx Express remains the company's main engine after the Freight spin-off, and the business still spans package delivery, e-commerce, logistics, and business services. The mix also includes FedEx Office and FedEx Logistics, which makes the company more than a pure parcel carrier.
Stock level
FedEx stock ended August 28, 2026 at $327.40, with after-hours trading at $327.95. That puts the company within reach of its 52-week high of $345.37 and well above the 52-week low of $178.33.
