FedEx launches senior notes, repurchases $4.9B debt
FedEx plans a new senior unsecured, subsidiary‑guaranteed notes offering, alongside euro notes, to support general corporate purposes including potential debt repayment.
FedEx Corporation (FDX) is conducting a primary offering of a new series of senior unsecured notes under its shelf registration, with the notes fully and unconditionally guaranteed by key operating subsidiaries, including Federal Express Corporation and FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc.
The notes pay fixed semi‑annual interest, may be redeemed early at FedEx’s option (including a make‑whole call before a specified par call date and a par call thereafter), and give investors the right to require repurchase at 101% of principal plus accrued interest upon a defined Change of Control Repurchase Event. The notes rank equally with FedEx’s other unsubordinated debt, are structurally subordinated to non‑guarantor subsidiary obligations, and are part of a broader financing that also includes separate euro‑denominated notes. FedEx plans to use combined net proceeds from this U.S. dollar and euro issuance for general corporate purposes, which may include redeeming or repaying existing indebtedness, with interim investment in cash and other short‑term instruments.
