In the report, Bank of America stated that, "FedEx accelerated the retirement of 10 aircraft in its Express network as of May 31, and plans to complete the final retirement of its 20 B727-200 fleet on July 1. We believe this is a significant positive step for FedEx, as the company is focused on pulling out costs amid a lackluster demand environment, and as the transition to Economy airfreight (from Priority) continues. These shifts show the company is not afraid to take bold moves to rightsize its network, which we believe is under- appreciated by investors. While not specifically noted, we view this move as part of its broader $1.7 billion profit improvement plan, which should drive Express operating margins closer to its double-digit goal. We reiterate our Buy on FDX shares and raise our price objective to $120 from $115."

Fedex closed on Monday at $97.70
