FedEx (FDX) has just paired a firm third quarter earnings update with a higher full year revenue outlook and the launch of FedEx SameDay Local, a new fast delivery option built around tighter delivery windows.

The recent Q3 beat, raised full year revenue outlook, and SameDay Local launch come after a strong run, with a 19.25% year to date share price return and a 46.49% total shareholder return over the past year suggesting momentum has been building despite a softer 30 day share price move of 9.57%.

With FedEx shares up strongly over the past year, trading at US$349.55 with a 15% gap to the average analyst target and an implied 54% discount to intrinsic value, is there still a buying opportunity here or is the market already pricing in future growth?

Most Popular Narrative: 5.9% Undervalued

Vestra’s narrative pegs FedEx’s fair value at $371.45, a touch above the last close at $349.55, which frames the stock as modestly undervalued in that view.

The narrative is no longer just about package volumes; it is about the successful execution of the "DRIVE" program and the highly anticipated June 1, 2026, spin-off of FedEx Freight, which is set to unlock significant value for long-term shareholders.

Curious what underpins that higher fair value? Vestra builds the case around earnings power, network efficiency, and how the Freight separation reshapes margins and valuation multiples.

Result: Fair Value of $371.45 (UNDERVALUED)

However, this depends on smooth delivery of the Freight spin off and continued DRIVE cost savings, while energy prices and labor rules could still upset the story.
