FedEx stock was downgraded to neutral from positive by Susquehanna Financial on Thursday, as the firm believes there are few catalysts to drive the stock higher in the coming year.
div > div.group > p:first-child"> "We see a far lower probability of a near/mid-term upside surprise to free cash flow," Susquehanna analyst Bascome Majors said of FedEx. Majors gave three specific reasons for Susquehanna's downgrade: A shrinking payoff from FedEx's acquisition of European delivery service TNT Express, growing global economic uncertainty and capital expenditures"that should remain elevated" for the next two years, he said.
"All eyes are on the company's ability to deliver EPS growth more in line with their history," Majors said. FedEx shares slipped 0.5 percent in premarket trading from Wednesday's close of $176.09. Susquehanna also lowered its price target on FedEx to $192 a share from $211 a share.
