Zacks‘ analyst wrote, “We downgrade our recommendation on FedEx Corporation to Underperform. The first quarter fiscal 2013 earnings outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate but were below the year-ago level due to lower revenue yield at FedEx Express, offsetting growth at the Freight and Ground segments. We remain concerned about the margin performance of Express segment, which is expected to remain subdued due to demand shift from premium to deferred products given economic volatilities. Domestic and international Express volumes are also expected to remain weak owing to poor demand trend. Despite the company’s effort in reducing cost, rising pension and depreciation expenses may impede near-term growth goals. Further, we remain cautious on the company’s expansion strategy in Europe given the current backdrop of the European economy. “
