SECTION 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION.
Item 2.05.
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
A voluntary buyout program for eligible U.S.-based employees is a component of FedEx Corporation's ("FedEx") ongoing efforts to
improve efficiencies and reduce costs. On January 18, 2019, FedEx and its wholly owned subsidiaries Federal Express Corporation and FedEx Corporate Services, Inc. began offering voluntary cash buyouts to eligible U.S.-based employees. The offer
periods will expire in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
The U.S.-based employee voluntary buyout program includes voluntary severance
payments to be calculated based on four weeks of gross base salary for every year of continuous FedEx service up to a maximum payment of two years of pay. It also includes funding to healthcare reimbursement accounts. These incentives do not include
any changes to retirement eligibility or payments. However, employees who are eligible for this program and are also eligible to retire may elect to accept the voluntary buyout and retire.
Costs of the benefits to be provided under the U.S.-based employee voluntary buyout program will be recognized in the period that eligible
employees accept their offers, which is expected to be predominantly in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. We expect the
pre-tax
cost of the U.S.-based program to range from $450 million to
$575 million in
pre-tax
cash expenditures, but actual costs will depend on employee acceptance rates. We expect savings from the U.S.-based program to be between $225 million to $275 million on
an annualized basis beginning in fiscal 2020.
Eligible employees will vacate positions in a manner to ensure a smooth transition in the
impacted functions so that we maintain service levels to our customers. We expect for the majority of eligible and accepting employees to vacate their positions by the end of fiscal 2019.

Act of 1995 with respect to future events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated (expressed or implied) by such forward-looking
statements because of, among other things, the employee acceptance rate of the voluntary cash buyout offers and the timing of such acceptances, our ability to realize the expected savings from the U.S.-based voluntary buyout program and the risks
