FEDERAL EXPRESS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(1) General

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. These interim financial statements of Federal Express Corporation (“FedEx Express”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and Securities and Exchange Commission instructions for interim financial information, and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2013 (“Annual Report”). Accordingly, significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been omitted since such items are disclosed in our Annual Report.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of February 28, 2014, the results of our operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014 and 2013. Operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2014.

We are a wholly owned subsidiary of FedEx Corporation (“FedEx”) engaged in a single line of business and operate in one business segment – the worldwide express transportation and distribution of goods and documents.

Except as otherwise specified, references to years indicate our fiscal year ending May 31, 2014 or ended May 31 of the year referenced and comparisons are to the corresponding period of the prior year.

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS. As discussed in our Annual Report, on June 20, 2013, we signed agreements to acquire the businesses operated by our current service provider Supaswift (Pty) Ltd. in five countries in Southern Africa. In addition, on September 2, 2013, we entered into an agreement to acquire Supaswift’s business in two additional countries. This acquisition will be funded with cash from operations and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to customary closing conditions. The financial results of the acquired businesses will be included in our results from the date of acquisition and will be immaterial to our 2014 results.

EMPLOYEES UNDER COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ARRANGEMENTS. Our pilots, which represent a small number of our total employees, are employed under a collective bargaining agreement. The contract became amendable in March 2013, and the parties are currently in negotiations. In addition to our pilots, certain non-U.S. employees are unionized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. FedEx has two types of equity-based compensation: stock options and restricted stock. The key terms of the stock option and restricted stock awards granted under FedEx’s incentive stock plans are set forth in FedEx’s Annual Report.

Our stock-based compensation expense was $7 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2014 and $31 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2014. Our stock-based compensation expense was $7 million for the three-month period ended February 28, 2013 and $29 million for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2013. This amount represents the amount charged to us by FedEx for awards granted to our employees.

LONG-TERM DEBT. Long-term debt, exclusive of capital leases, had carrying values of $239 million at February 28, 2014 and May 31, 2013 compared with estimated fair values of $320 million at February 28, 2014 and $344 million at May 31, 2013. The estimated fair values were determined based on quoted market prices and the current rates offered for debt with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of our long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. This classification is defined as a fair value determined using market-based inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly.

-8-

RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE. New accounting rules and disclosure requirements can significantly impact our reported results and the comparability of our financial statements.

On June 1, 2013, we adopted the authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board requiring additional information about reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income, including changes in accumulated other comprehensive income balances by component and significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. We have adopted this guidance by including expanded accumulated other comprehensive income disclosure requirements in Note 2 of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

While no other new accounting guidance was adopted or issued during the nine months of 2014 that is relevant to the readers of our financial statements, there are numerous proposals under development (as discussed in our Annual Report) which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on our financial reporting.

(2) Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The following table provides changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of tax, reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended February 28 (in millions; amounts in parentheses indicate debits to AOCI):


	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Foreign currency translation gain (loss):
Balance at beginning of period	$	56		$	107		$	90		$	54
Translation adjustments		(26	)		(3	)		(60	)		50

Balance at end of period		30			104			30			104

Retirement plans adjustments:
Balance at beginning of period		(123	)		(122	)		(126	)		(124	)
Reclassifications from AOCI		—			1			3			3

Balance at end of period		(123	)		(121	)		(123	)		(121	)

Accumulated other comprehensive loss at end of period	$	(93	)	$	(17	)	$	(93	)	$	(17	)

Due to its immateriality, the table presenting details of reclassifications from AOCI has been excluded from this quarterly report.

(3) Retirement Plans

We sponsor or participate in programs that provide retirement benefits to most of our employees. These programs include defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution plans and postretirement healthcare plans. A majority of our employees are covered by the FedEx Corporation Employees’ Pension Plan (“FedEx Plan”), a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by FedEx. Defined contribution plans covering a majority of U.S. employees and certain international employees are in place. We also sponsor or participate in nonqualified benefit plans covering certain of our U.S. employee groups and other pension plans covering certain of our international employees. For more information, refer to the financial statements of FedEx included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended February 28, 2014 and in our Annual Report.

-9-

Our retirement plans’ costs for the periods ended February 28, 2014 were as follows (in millions):


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	2014		2013		2014		2013
Pension plans sponsored by FedEx	$	68	$	108	$	202	$	324
Other U.S. domestic and international pension plans		13		11		40		34
U.S. domestic and international defined contribution plans		60		58		175		172
U.S. domestic and international postretirement healthcare plans		15		15		46		46

	$	156	$	192	$	463	$	576

The components of the net periodic benefit cost of the pension and postretirement healthcare plans currently sponsored by us were individually immaterial for all periods presented. No material contributions were made during the nine months of 2014 or 2013 to pension plans sponsored by us, and we do not expect to make material contributions in 2014.

(4) Commitments

As of February 28, 2014, our purchase commitments under various contracts for the remainder of 2014 and annually thereafter were as follows (in millions):


	Aircraft and Aircraft-Related		Other⁽¹⁾		Total

2014 (remainder)	$	217	$	32	$	249
2015		1,155		42		1,197
2016		1,215		34		1,249
2017		955		25		980
2018		1,396		21		1,417
Thereafter		5,388		89		5,477

Total	$	10,326	$	243	$	10,569

⁽¹⁾	Primarily advertising and promotions contracts.

The amounts reflected in the table above for purchase commitments represent noncancelable agreements to purchase goods or services. As of February 28, 2014, our obligation to purchase four Boeing 767-300 Freighter (“B767F”) aircraft and nine Boeing 777 Freighter (“B777F”) aircraft is conditioned upon there being no event that causes us or our employees not to be covered by the Railway Labor Act of 1926, as amended. Commitments to purchase aircraft in passenger configuration do not include the attendant costs to modify these aircraft for cargo transport unless we have entered into noncancelable commitments to modify such aircraft. Open purchase orders that are cancelable are not considered unconditional purchase obligations for financial reporting purposes and are not included in the table above.

During the third quarter of 2014, we entered into an agreement with The Boeing Company for the purchase of two B767F aircraft, the delivery of which will occur in 2016 and 2017. We also deferred 11 existing options to purchase B777F aircraft by two years.

-10-

We had $272 million in deposits and progress payments as of February 28, 2014 on aircraft purchases and other planned aircraft-related transactions. These deposits are classified in the “Other assets” caption of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition to our commitment to purchase B777Fs and B767Fs, our aircraft purchase commitments include the Boeing 757 (“B757”) in passenger configuration, which will require additional costs to modify for cargo transport. Aircraft and aircraft-related contracts are subject to price escalations. The following table is a summary of the key aircraft we are committed to purchase as of February 28, 2014, with the year of expected delivery:


	B757		B767F		B777F		Total

2014 (remainder)		6		—		—		6
2015		11		12		—		23
2016		—		11		2		13
2017		—		11		—		11
2018		—		10		2		12
Thereafter		—		4		14		18

Total		17		48		18		83

A summary of future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases with an initial or remaining term in excess of one year at February 28, 2014 is as follows (in millions):


	Operating Leases
	Aircraft				Total
	and Related		Facilities		Operating
	Equipment		and Other		Leases

2014 (remainder)	$	100	$	193	$	293
2015		448		773		1,221
2016		453		633		1,086
2017		391		809		1,200
2018		326		495		821
Thereafter		824		4,144		4,968

Total	$	2,542	$	7,047	$	9,589

Future minimum lease payments under capital leases were immaterial at February 28, 2014. While certain of our lease agreements contain covenants governing the use of the leased assets or require us to maintain certain levels of insurance, none of our lease agreements include material financial covenants or limitations.

(5) Contingencies

In August 2010, a third-party consultant who works with shipping customers to negotiate lower rates filed a lawsuit in federal district court in California against FedEx and United Parcel Service, Inc. (“UPS”) alleging violations of U.S. antitrust law. This matter was dismissed in May 2011, but the court granted the plaintiff permission to file an amended complaint, which FedEx received in June 2011. In November 2011, the court granted our motion to dismiss this complaint, but again allowed the plaintiff to file an amended complaint. The plaintiff filed a new complaint in December 2011, and the matter remains pending before the court. In February 2011, shortly after the initial lawsuit was filed, we received a demand for the production of information and documents in connection with a civil investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) into the policies and practices of FedEx and UPS for dealing with third-party consultants who work with shipping customers to negotiate lower rates. In November 2012, the DOJ served a civil investigative demand on the third-party consultant seeking all pleadings, depositions and documents produced in the lawsuit. We are cooperating with the investigation, do not believe that we have engaged in any anti-competitive activities and will vigorously defend ourselves in

-11-

any action that may result from the investigation. While the litigation proceedings and the DOJ investigation move forward, and the amount of loss, if any, is dependent on a number of factors that are not yet fully developed or resolved, we do not believe that a material loss is reasonably possible.

We have received requests for information from the DOJ in the Northern District of California in connection with a criminal investigation relating to the transportation of packages for online pharmacies that may have shipped pharmaceuticals in violation of federal law. We responded to grand jury subpoenas issued in June 2008 and August 2009 and to additional requests for information pursuant to those subpoenas, and we continue to respond and cooperate with the investigation. We believe that our employees have acted in good faith at all times. We do not believe that we have engaged in any illegal activities and will vigorously defend ourselves in any action that may result from the investigation. The DOJ may pursue a criminal indictment and, if we are convicted, remedies could include fines, penalties, financial forfeiture and compliance conditions. We cannot estimate the amount or range of loss, if any, as such analysis would depend on facts and law that are not yet fully developed or resolved.

FedEx Express and its subsidiaries are subject to other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of their business. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to these other actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(6) Parent/Affiliate Transactions

Affiliate company balances that are currently receivable or payable relate to charges for services provided to or by other FedEx affiliates, which are settled on a monthly basis, or the net activity from participation in FedEx’s consolidated cash management program. In addition, we are allocated net interest on these amounts at market rates.

We maintain an accounts receivable arrangement with FedEx TechConnect, Inc. (“FedEx TechConnect”), a wholly owned subsidiary of FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. (“FedEx Services”). FedEx Services is a wholly owned subsidiary of FedEx. Under this arrangement, we recognize revenue for the transportation services provided to our U.S. customers and factor the related receivables to FedEx TechConnect for collection. We have no continuing involvement with the receivables transferred to FedEx TechConnect. Our net receivables recorded by FedEx TechConnect totaled $1.7 billion at February 28, 2014 and $1.6 billion at May 31, 2013.

The costs of FedEx Services, FedEx TechConnect and FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc., as well as charges for management fees from our parent, are allocated to us and are included in the expense line item “Intercompany charges, net” based on metrics such as relative revenues or estimated services provided. We believe these allocations approximate the net cost of providing the functions. FedEx allocation methodologies are refined as necessary to reflect changes in our business.

(7) Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Cash paid for interest expense and income taxes for the nine-month periods ended February 28 was as follows (in millions):


	2014			2013
Cash payments for:

Income taxes	$	177		$	189
Income tax refunds received		(122	)		(167	)

Cash tax payments, net	$	55		$	22

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholder

Federal Express Corporation

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Federal Express Corporation as of February 28, 2014, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014 and 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Federal Express Corporation as of May 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in owner’s equity and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein, and in our report dated July 15, 2013, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2013, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

GENERAL

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition (“MD&A”), which describes the principal factors affecting the results of operations and financial condition of Federal Express Corporation (“FedEx Express”), is abbreviated pursuant to General Instruction H(2)(a) of Form 10-Q. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2013 (“Annual Report”). Our Annual Report includes additional information about our significant accounting policies, practices and the transactions that underlie our financial results. For additional information, including a discussion of outlook, liquidity, capital resources, contractual cash obligations and critical accounting estimates, see the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of our parent, FedEx Corporation (“FedEx”), for the quarter ended February 28, 2014.

We are the world’s largest express transportation company. Our sister company FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. (“FedEx Services”) provides us and our other sister companies, including FedEx Ground Package System, Inc. (“FedEx Ground”), with sales, marketing, information technology, communications and certain back-office support, as well as retail access for our customers through FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. (“FedEx Office”) and customer service, technical support and billing and collection services through FedEx TechConnect, Inc.

The operating expenses line item “Intercompany charges” on the financial summary represents an allocation that primarily includes salaries and benefits, depreciation and other costs for the sales, marketing, information technology and customer service support provided to us by FedEx Services and FedEx Office’s net operating costs. These costs are allocated based on metrics such as relative revenues or estimated services provided. For the international regions of FedEx Express, similar functions are performed on a regional basis by FedEx Express and reported in expense line items outside of intercompany charges. “Intercompany charges” also includes allocated charges from our parent for management fees related to services received for general corporate oversight, including executive officers and certain legal and finance functions. We believe the total amounts allocated approximate the net cost of providing these functions. FedEx allocation methodologies are refined as necessary to reflect changes in our business.

The key indicators necessary to understand our operating results include:

•

the overall customer demand for our various services based on macro-economic factors and the global economy;

•

the volume of shipments transported through our network, as measured by our average daily volume and shipment weight;

•

the mix of services purchased by our customers;

•

the prices we obtain for our services, as measured by yield (revenue per package or pound);

•

our ability to manage our cost structure (capital expenditures and operating expenses) to match shifting volume levels; and

•

the timing and amount of fluctuations in fuel prices and our ability to recover incremental fuel costs through our fuel surcharges.

The majority of our operating expenses are directly impacted by revenue and volume levels. Accordingly, we expect these operating expenses to fluctuate on a year-over-year basis consistent with the change in revenues and volumes. Therefore, the discussion of operating expense captions focuses on the key drivers and trends impacting expenses other than changes in revenues and volume.

The line item “Other operating expenses” predominantly includes costs associated with outside service contracts (such as security, facility services, and cargo handling), professional fees, uniforms, insurance and advertising.

Our aircraft maintenance and repairs costs are largely driven by aircraft utilization and required periodic maintenance events. When newer aircraft are introduced into our operating fleet, less maintenance costs are incurred. As a part of our fleet modernization program, we have retired older, less efficient aircraft prior to required periodic maintenance events and have introduced newly manufactured aircraft into the fleet. In addition, our global air and ground network includes a fleet of over 640 aircraft (including approximately 300 supplemental aircraft) that provide delivery of packages and freight to more than 220 countries and territories through a wide range of U.S. and international shipping services. While certain aircraft are utilized in primary geographic areas (U.S. versus international), we operate an integrated global network, and utilize our aircraft and other modes of transportation to achieve the lowest cost of delivery while maintaining our service commitments to our customers. Because of the integrated nature of our global network, our aircraft are interchangeable across routes and geographies, giving us flexibility with our fleet planning to meet changing global economic conditions and maintain and modify aircraft as needed.

⁽¹⁾	International domestic statistics represent our international intra-country express operations, including acquisitions in Poland (June 2012), France (July 2012) and Brazil (July 2012).

Revenues

Our revenues decreased slightly in the third quarter of 2014 due to the negative impact of lower freight revenue, lower fuel surcharges and unusually severe winter weather, offset by stronger base U.S. and international export package business and one additional operating day. Revenue in the nine months of 2014 decreased slightly due to the negative impact of lower fuel surcharges, lower freight revenue and unusually severe winter weather, offset by stronger base U.S. and international export package business. The demand shift from our priority international services to our economy international services continued to negatively impact our results.

Freight yields decreased 8% in the third quarter and 6% in the nine months of 2014 due to lower fuel surcharges and lower rates. Freight average daily pounds decreased by 3% in the third quarter and 2% in the nine months of 2014 due to weakness in global economic conditions and capacity reductions. U.S. domestic yields remained flat for the third quarter and increased 1% for the nine months of 2014 primarily due to higher rates and weight per package, partially offset by lower fuel surcharges. International export package revenues increased 1% in the third quarter and remained flat in the nine months of 2014 as base business growth was offset by lower fuel surcharges, unfavorable exchange rate impact, and the demand shift to our lower-yielding economy services.

-18-

International priority yields increased 2% in the third quarter of 2014, while international priority volumes declined 5%. Within this category, volumes for lower-yielding distribution services declined, while international priority volumes, excluding these distribution services, were flat. International domestic average daily volumes remained flat in the third quarter and increased 5% in the nine months of 2014 due to international business acquisitions during the first quarter of 2013.

Our fuel surcharges are indexed to the spot price for jet fuel. Using this index, the U.S. domestic and outbound fuel surcharge and the international fuel surcharges ranged as follows for the periods ended February 28:


	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	2014			2013			2014			2013
U.S. Domestic and Outbound Fuel Surcharge:
Low		9.00	%		10.00	%		8.00	%		10.00	%
High		10.00			13.50			10.50			14.50
Weighted-average		9.49			11.29			9.34			12.14

International Fuel Surcharges:
Low		13.00			14.00			12.00			12.00
High		18.50			19.00			19.00			20.50
Weighted-average		16.31			16.96			16.16			16.78

In January 2014, we implemented a 3.9% average list price increase for FedEx Express U.S. domestic, U.S. export and U.S. import services. In January 2013, we implemented a 5.9% average list price increase for FedEx Express U.S. domestic, U.S. export and U.S. import services, while we lowered our fuel surcharge index by two percentage points.

Operating Income

Our operating income and operating margin increased in the third quarter of 2014 due to stronger U.S. and international export package business and lower pension expense, partially offset by lower freight revenues, an estimated $70 million year over year negative impact of severe winter weather and higher depreciation expense. In addition, operating income in the third quarter of 2014 benefited from one additional operating day and from the inclusion of costs associated with our business realignment program in the prior year results. Operating income in the third quarter of 2014 also reflects a significant negative net impact of fuel. Operating income in the nine months of 2014 improved due to stronger base U.S. and international export package business, lower pension expense and lower maintenance expense, offset by higher depreciation expense, the significant negative net impact of fuel and severe winter weather.

In the third quarter and nine months of 2014, salaries and employee benefits included lower pension expense, the delayed timing or absence of annual merit increases for many of our employees and benefits from our voluntary employee severance program. Intercompany charges decreased 7% in the third quarter and 6% in the nine months of 2014 due to lower allocated sales and information technology costs, as well as the inclusion in the prior year results of costs associated with the business realignment program at FedEx Services. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 12% during the third quarter and nine months of 2014 as a result of accelerated depreciation due to the shortened life of certain aircraft scheduled for retirement, and aircraft recently placed into service. Purchased transportation costs increased 7% in the third quarter of 2014 due to higher utilization of third-party transportation providers and increased 8% in the nine months of 2014 due to higher utilization of third-party transportation providers and prior year international acquisitions.

-19-

Fuel costs decreased 5% in the third quarter and 6% in the nine months of 2014 due to lower average price per gallon of jet fuel and lower aircraft fuel usage. Based on a static analysis of the net impact of year-over-year changes in fuel prices compared to year-over-year changes in fuel surcharges, fuel had a significant negative impact on operating income in the third quarter and nine months of 2014. This analysis considers the estimated impact of the reduction in fuel surcharges included in the base rates charged for our services.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 35.0% for the third quarter and 34.1% for the nine months of 2014, compared with 33.8% for the third quarter and 34.2% for the nine months of 2013. For 2014, we expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 35%. The actual rate, however, will depend on a number of factors, including the amount and source of operating income.

We are subject to taxation in the United States and various U.S. state, local and foreign jurisdictions. Substantially all U.S. federal income tax matters through fiscal year 2009 are concluded, and we are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2010 and 2011 tax years. It is reasonably possible that certain income tax return proceedings will be completed during the next 12 months and could result in a change in our balance of unrecognized tax benefits. The expected impact of any changes would not be material to our consolidated financial statements. As of February 28, 2014, there were no material changes to our liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits from May 31, 2013.

Business Acquisitions

As discussed in our Annual Report, on June 20, 2013, we signed agreements to acquire the businesses operated by our current service provider Supaswift (Pty) Ltd. in five countries in Southern Africa. In addition, on September 2, 2013, we entered into an agreement to acquire Supaswift’s business in two additional countries. This acquisition will be funded with cash from operations and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to customary closing conditions. The financial results of the acquired businesses will be included in our results from the date of acquisition and will be immaterial to our 2014 results.

RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

New accounting rules and disclosure requirements can significantly impact our reported results and the comparability of our financial statements.

While no other new accounting guidance was adopted or issued during the nine months of 2014 that is relevant to the readers of our financial statements, there are numerous proposals under development which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on our financial reporting, as described in our Annual Report.

As a result of these and other factors, no assurance can be given as to our future results and achievements. Accordingly, a forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances, and those future events or circumstances may not occur. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
