FedEx Corporation delivers transportation, e-commerce, and logistics services across the United States and internationally through divisions including FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Freight. The FedEx Corporation dividend currently yields 1.48%, with a trailing annual rate of $4.7229 per share paid quarterly. The next ex-dividend date is June 22, 2026, and the last dividend payment was $1.22 per share. With a beta of 1.299, FDX carries above-average market sensitivity, making it a better fit for growth-oriented dividend investors than those seeking low-volatility income.
FedEx Corporation pays out 31.0% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as conservative (below 40%). That low payout leaves substantial room to sustain and grow the dividend even if earnings face pressure from freight volume swings or rising operating costs across FDX's large vehicle and service center network. FedEx Corporation dividend safety benefits from this earnings cushion, though the company's exposure to global shipping demand means revenue can fluctuate with economic cycles, which is the most data-supported pressure point on the payout.
FedEx Corporation dividend history shows a CAGR of 18.9% per year from 2011 to 2025. The per-share dividend grew from $0.51 to $5.73 over that period (2026 is a partial year and excluded from the CAGR calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 52.6% in 2016, while growth has moderated in more recent years, with the 2024-to-2025 increase coming in at roughly 6%.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +10.9% | $4.20 (2022) | $5.73 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +17.1% | $2.60 (2020) | $5.73 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +19.7% | $0.95 (2015) | $5.73 (2025) |
FDX fits growth-and-income investors who prioritize dividend growth over current yield, particularly those comfortable with the logistics sector's sensitivity to economic demand. The yield is low (below 2%) at 1.48%, sitting just above the 5-year average of 1.45%, so current income is modest. The real story is the 18.9% annualized dividend growth over 14 years, which has compounded a $0.51 annual payment into $5.73. The trade-off is clear: FedEx Corporation stock offers an impressive growth rate but a thin yield, meaning investors wait for compounding to do the work rather than collecting meaningful income from day one.
