Wikipedia says their net profit for 2021 was $75 billion, so your math seems off.



You are correct that I was wrong. (I searched "fedex profit 2021" and incorrectly reported based on a quarter's profit, which is sloppy as hell on my part.)

That said, it seems like $75B is wildly too high as well. Page 43 of their most recent annual report shows a consolidated net income for the year ending May 31, 2021 as $5.2B, making $400M still a 7.5% boost (if it all passes through).

That Wikipedia figure is vandalism from a couple weeks ago that I reverted.


Wikipedia is wrong, see page 43:

I am not even sure where the $75.231B erroneous net income figure comes from, it is nowhere in the 2021 report:
