Dahlman Rose maintains a 'Buy' on FedEx (NYSE: FDX) price target of $104.00.
Analyst, Helane Becker, commented on last night's 10K filing by FedEx, which stated the contract with the U.S. Postal Service is up in September of 2013 and the USPS will allow competing bids upon expiration. Becker noted: 1) USPS is FDX's largest customer with total revs of $1.2 billion; 2) Hold-rated UPS (NYSE: UPS) may be the beneficiary if FDX loses the contract; 3) Overall, FDX made $42.7B in revenue and $6.59 EPS for FY12, so the USPS contract is relatively small in the overall picture.
Becker suggests buying FDX shares on weakness tied to the 10K filing.
