Revenue increased 13% to $25 billion, its report on Tuesday showed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">However, the company&#8217;s operating margin shrank to 8.4% from 9.1% last year, sending FedEx shares lower.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The courier giant cited the financial impact of shifting global trade policy as a headwind. Higher yields and package volumes were offset by rising transportation costs, wages, and trade policy impacts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">What else you need to know: FedEx&#8217;s results come after the company completed the spin-off of FedEx Freight, which reports results on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The company is often seen as a bellwether for the overall economy. Management said during the earnings call that it sees double-digit revenue gains from AI and data centers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">&#8220;The AI and data center space is an emerging and rapidly scaling growth engine for us, delivering double-digit revenue growth,&#8221; said Brie Carere, chief customer officer at FedEx, during the earnings call.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">&#8220;We are capturing demand across the entire value chain, from traditional hyperscalers to the industrial and power infrastructure that support these massive build-outs,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Ines Ferre is a senior business reporter for Yahoo Finance.
