FedEx Freight Completes Spin-Off and Begins Trading on the New York Stock Exchange

•

Establishes FedEx Freight as an independent, scaled leader in North American LTL industry

​

•

Positions company to deliver profitable growth, strong free cash flow, and long-term stockholder value

​

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Jun. 1, 2026 — FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. (NYSE: FDXF, “FedEx Freight”) today announced the completion of its spin-off from FedEx Corporation (NYSE: FDX, “FedEx”), establishing FedEx Freight as an independent, publicly traded company and focused leader in the North American less-than-truckload (“LTL”) industry. FedEx Freight common stock will begin “regular way” trading today on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “FDXF.” It has been announced that FedEx Freight will join leading global equity indices, including the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Transportation Average. FedEx will continue to trade on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “FDX.”

“Today begins the next chapter for the new FedEx Freight,” said John Smith, FedEx Freight president and chief executive officer. “We move forward as an independent company with a sharpened focus and disciplined strategy to build on our competitive advantages and accelerate profitable growth. As the largest pure-play LTL carrier in North America, we will leverage our comprehensive network with more than 26,000 service center doors to deliver cost and service advantages to our customers and capitalize on growth opportunities in high-potential verticals. With our safety above all culture and a world-class team, FedEx Freight is well positioned to unlock our full potential and deliver long-term stockholder value.”

The spin-off was achieved through the distribution by FedEx of 80.1% of the outstanding shares of FedEx Freight’s common stock on a pro rata basis to the holders of FedEx common stock. Each FedEx stockholder received one share of FedEx Freight common stock for every two shares of FedEx common stock held of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2026. Stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares of FedEx Freight common stock.

FedEx retained 19.9% of the outstanding shares of FedEx Freight common stock. FedEx will dispose of such shares within 24 months of the completion of the separation through one or more subsequent exchanges in repayment of certain FedEx debt held by FedEx creditors and/or through distributions to stockholders of FedEx as dividends or in exchange for outstanding shares of FedEx common stock.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC served as the financial advisors to FedEx, and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP served as legal counsel to FedEx.
