FedEx Corporation (FDX) is issuing €2,000,000,000 of senior unsecured euro notes in two tranches: €1.1 billion 4.000% Notes due 2030 and €900 million 4.625% Notes due 2034. Interest is paid annually in arrears each September 30, starting September 30, 2026, and the notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by key FedEx subsidiaries.
The notes price slightly below par, generating estimated net proceeds of about €1.982 billion, or $2.308 billion, after underwriting discounts and expenses. FedEx plans to use the net proceeds, together with a separate $1.1 billion 2036 U.S. dollar note offering, for general corporate purposes, which may include redeeming or repaying existing indebtedness. The notes include an investor put at 101% upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event, multiple redemption options for FedEx, and will be euro-denominated with NYSE listing sought; payments can switch to U.S. dollars only if euro becomes unavailable.
