FedEx has inked a $1 billion accelerated share-repurchase
agreement with Mizuho Markets Americas as part of the
package-delivery giant's stock buyback program.
The Memphis, Tenn.-based company on Tuesday said it expects an
initial delivery of about 3.2 million shares, with final settlement
by the end of February.
FedEx, which had nearly 250 million shares outstanding as of
Dec. 18, sports a market capitalization of around $62 billion based
on Friday's closing price of $248.03.
The company had about $1.6 billion available for shares
repurchases as of Nov. 30 under a $5 billion program its board
approved in December 2021.
