Is FedEx (FDX) Undervalued Following Its Freight Spin Off And Restructuring?

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

FedEx (FDX) has thrown a lot at investors at once, from spinning off its freight unit to shifting to a calendar-year schedule and rolling out fresh cost saving efforts.

FedEx shares have been edging higher again, with a 1-day share price return of 1.91% and a 7-day gain of 2.84%, even as the 90-day share price return declined 3.51%. The stock now trades at $303.92 after a 61.15% 1-year total shareholder return and 76.76% over five years, reflecting how investors are weighing the freight spin off, new cost programs, and the refreshed Broadcom backed digital infrastructure against near term earnings pressure.

The spin off is done, the cost program is in motion, and FedEx now trades at $303.92 after a strong multi year run. Does that price already reflect the reset story, or is patience the better entry strategy?

Most Popular Narrative: 14% Undervalued

FedEx’s most followed thesis pegs fair value at $355.10, above the recent $303.92 close. This puts cost cuts and cash generation at the center of the story.

A free cash flow focused financial model, reflected in US$4.7b of adjusted free cash flow in FY26 at roughly 4% capital intensity and targets for US$6b free cash flow at FedEx Express Corporation by 2029 and more than US$1b annually at FedEx Freight, supports the case that earnings and cash generation could run ahead of what the current valuation implies.

See why 95 investors see FedEx as 14% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of $355.10 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the FedEx narrative could be knocked off course if major contracts such as USPS shift again, or if global shipping competition squeezes international yields.
