Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION BACKGROUND. FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. (“FedEx Freight,” the “Company,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in Delaware on July 14, 2025, for the purpose of receiving, pursuant to a reorganization, all of the outstanding equity interests of FedEx Freight, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of FedEx Corporation (the “Parent” or “FedEx”). On June 1, 2026 (the “Distribution Date”), FedEx completed the previously announced spin-off of FedEx Freight (the “Spin-Off” or the “Separation”), which was tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Separation was completed through the distribution of approximately 80.1% of the Company’s outstanding common stock to holders of record of FedEx common stock as of the close of business on May 15, 2026 (the “Distribution”), which resulted in the issuance of approximately 150 million shares of common stock inclusive of FedEx’s retained stake. Prior to the Distribution, the Company issued 100 shares of common stock in exchange for a subscription receivable of $10, all of which were held by FedEx and subsequently reclassified and converted into 149,505,248 shares of common stock as described below. As a result of the Distribution, the Company became an independent, publicly traded company. Our common stock is listed under the symbol "FDXF" on the New York Stock Exchange. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “FedEx Freight,” the “Company,” “we,” or “our” refer to (i) FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries after giving effect to the reorganization completed on May 29, 2026 in preparation for the Spin-Off and (ii) FedEx Freight, Inc. when referencing the time period prior to the reorganization. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS. FedEx Freight is a leading North American provider of less-than-truckload (“LTL”) freight transportation services. We offer a range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of LTL shippers including time-critical transportation needs leveraging our advanced tracking capabilities and a comprehensive network of service centers and hubs that facilitate efficient delivery and pickup. FedEx Freight service offerings include priority services when speed is critical and economy services when time can be traded for savings. FedEx Freight is our sole reportable segment based upon the information used by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in evaluating the performance of our business and allocating resources and capital. FedEx Freight, Inc. was created through several acquisitions by FedEx, including Viking Freight, Inc. in January 1998, American Freightways, Inc. in February 2001, and Watkins Motor Lines in May 2006. In April 2002, American Freightways, Inc. was renamed FedEx Freight East, Inc. and Viking Freight, Inc. was renamed FedEx Freight West, Inc. In May 2006, the Watkins Motor Lines business was renamed FedEx National LTL, Inc. In December 2008, FedEx Freight East, Inc. and FedEx Freight West, Inc. merged and became FedEx Freight, Inc., which was wholly owned by FedEx Freight Corporation. In January 2011, FedEx National LTL, Inc. merged into FedEx Freight, Inc. On June 1, 2024, FedEx Freight Corporation merged into FedEx Freight, Inc., and ownership of FedEx Custom Critical, Inc. (“FedEx Custom Critical”) was transferred from another FedEx subsidiary to FedEx Freight, Inc. On September 1, 2024, FedEx Freight Canada Holding Company, Inc., formerly a subsidiary of FedEx Freight Corporation, merged into FedEx Freight, Inc. and its subsidiary, FedEx Freight Canada Corp. (“FedEx Freight Canada”), became a subsidiary of FedEx Freight, Inc. On July 14, 2025, FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. was incorporated to serve as the ultimate parent company of FedEx Freight, Inc. in connection with the planned Spin-Off. Subsequently, on February 11, 2026, FDXF Holding Corporation was formed as an intermediate holding company to become a direct subsidiary of FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. On May 29, 2026, ownership of FedEx Freight, Inc. and its subsidiaries was transferred from another FedEx subsidiary to FDXF Holding Corporation. Immediately thereafter, ownership of FDXF Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries was transferred to FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. Collectively, these ownership transfers completed the reorganization. The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of FedEx Freight Holding Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries for all periods presented since the reorganizations were transactions under common control. On May 27, 2026, the Company effected a recapitalization pursuant to an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, whereby our 100 issued and outstanding shares of common stock were reclassified and converted into 149,505,248 shares of common stock. As the common stock par value remained $0.10 per share, the recapitalization resulted in a corresponding increase in Common Stock in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. FISCAL YEARS. Except as otherwise specified, references to years indicate our fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, or ended May 31 of the year referenced. Effective for the period beginning June 1, 2026, the Company's fiscal year-end will change from May 31 to December 31. BASIS OF PRESENTATION. Throughout the periods included in these consolidated financial statements, FedEx Freight operated as part of FedEx and consisted of several legal entities. As stated above, FedEx Custom Critical’s and FedEx Freight Canada’s results have been included retrospectively for all periods presented as the contribution of these entities to FedEx Freight was a transaction under common control. Separate financial statements have not historically been prepared for FedEx Freight. These consolidated financial statements have been derived from FedEx’s historical accounting records as if FedEx Freight’s operations had been conducted independently from FedEx, using the historical accounting policies applied by FedEx. These consolidated financial statements were prepared on a stand-alone basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The historical results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of FedEx Freight presented in these consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of what they would have been had FedEx Freight been an independent stand-alone entity, nor are they necessarily indicative of FedEx Freight’s future results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position, and cash flows. The consolidated financial statements include all revenue and costs directly attributable to FedEx Freight and an allocation of expenses related to certain FedEx corporate and shared functions as described in Note 10 , Related Party Transactions. These expenses have been allocated to FedEx Freight based on direct usage or benefit where specifically identifiable, with the remainder allocated pro rata based on an applicable measure of total revenue, headcount, specific revenue by function, transaction volume, or other relevant measures. Management considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services or the benefit received. The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets and liabilities specifically attributable to FedEx Freight and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances within FedEx Freight have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements. As described in Note 10 , Related Party Transactions, certain transactions between FedEx Freight and FedEx have been included in these consolidated financial statements. FedEx uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its domestic operations. The related balances were increased through daily cash deposits by the Company to FedEx and decreased by cash distributions and disbursements made by FedEx on behalf of FedEx Freight for operating expenses. This arrangement is not reflective of the manner in which we would have financed our domestic operations had we been a stand-alone business separate from FedEx during the periods presented. As a result of this arrangement, we were dependent on transfers of cash from FedEx to fund our operations in certain situations. The amounts associated with this arrangement are reported in the caption “(Accumulated deficit) Retained earnings” as a component of (deficit) equity in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and as a financing activity on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Refer to Note 10 , Related Party Transactions, for further discussion. On May 29, 2026, the Company’s cash pooling arrangement with FedEx was terminated in preparation for the Spin-Off. FedEx’s third-party debt and related interest expense have not been attributed to FedEx Freight for the periods presented because FedEx’s borrowings are neither directly attributable to FedEx Freight nor is FedEx Freight the legal obligor of such borrowings. Refer to Note 1 3 , Contingencies, for further discussion of our guarantees of FedEx’s third-party debt during the periods presented. In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a series of financing arrangements for which both FedEx and certain of the Company’s subsidiaries were jointly and severally liable until completion of the Spin-Off. Upon completion of the Spin-Off, FedEx will automatically be released from its guarantee of these financing arrangements, and FedEx Custom Critical will become a guarantor of the Notes. The borrowings under such financing arrangements are reflected in the “Long-term debt, less current portion” caption on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a corresponding amount reflected as a Net transfer to Parent. Refer to Note 5, Long-Term Debt, for further discussion on the composition of debt during the periods presented. FedEx and its affiliates provide a variety of services to FedEx Freight. Certain services and support functions such as information technology, marketing, sales, financial services, support services, customer experience, and various other FedEx shared services, are routinely allocated to FedEx Freight. In circumstances where charges were not historically billed to FedEx Freight by FedEx (or charges billed were not reflective of the full costs of doing business), those charges have been allocated to FedEx Freight and are reflected within the respective operating expense line item in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Where specific identification of charges was not practicable, a reasonable method of allocation was applied to those charges primarily based on a proportional share of total revenue. Refer to Note 10 , Related Party Transactions, for further discussion. Where allocations of amounts were necessary, the allocations of these amounts were determined on a reasonable basis and the methods were applied consistently for the periods presented and reflect all of the costs of FedEx Freight. These allocated amounts are not necessarily indicative of the actual amounts that might have been incurred or realized had FedEx Freight operated as an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented, nor are they indicative of FedEx Freight’s future operations. Consequently, the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily represent the results the Company would have achieved if the Company had operated as a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. It is not practicable to estimate actual costs that would have been incurred had the Company been a separate, stand-alone company during the periods presented. During the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, the operations of FedEx Freight were included in the consolidated U.S. federal and state income tax returns filed by FedEx. Income tax expense and other income tax-related information contained in these consolidated financial statements are presented on a separate return basis as if FedEx Freight had filed its own tax returns. The deferred income taxes of FedEx Freight as presented in these consolidated financial statements, including tax attributes such as net operating losses or credit carryforwards, may not be indicative of the deferred tax assets available to FedEx Freight in the future. FedEx Freight’s uncertain tax positions recorded under the separate return method may also differ from those recorded in FedEx’s financial statements. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
