For fiscal 2025, analysts forecast the logistics services provider to report EPS of $5.38, down nearly 6% from $5.72 in fiscal 2024. However, EPS is expected to grow 2.4% year-over-year to $5.51 in fiscal 2026.
Over the past 52 weeks, EXPD stock has decreased 6.2%, underperforming the broader S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 12.2% return and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLI) 19.4% gain over the same period.
Despite reporting better-than-expected Q1 2025 EPS of $1.47 and revenue of $2.7 billion, shares of Expeditors International fell 5% on May 6. The company's air freight tonnage rose 9% and ocean container volume increased 8%, largely driven by one-time demand spikes as businesses pulled forward shipments ahead of potential tariff hikes. The management warned of ongoing volatility in air capacity and rates, and noted the industry is facing unprecedented regulatory unpredictability.
Analysts' consensus view on Expeditors' stock is moderately bearish, with an overall "Moderate Sell" rating. Among 15 analysts covering the stock, eight suggest a "Hold," one gives a "Moderate Sell," and six provide a "Strong Sell" rating. As of writing, the stock is trading above the average analyst price target of $109.71.

Agriculture Department to Move Most Remaining Washington Workers Out of City
The Agriculture Department will move most of its Washington-based employees outside the nation's capital, the agency announced Thursday. Brooke L. Rollins, the agriculture secretary, said in a memo that the agency would keep no more than 2,000 of the 4,600 members of its current Washington work force at offices in the area, instead spreading employees across five regional hubs. The memo also outlined plans to consolidate or eliminate local offices for subagencies focused on research, statistics, nutrition, forestry and conservation. 'President Trump was elected to make real change in Washington, and we are doing just that by moving our key services outside the Beltway and into great American cities across the country,' Ms. Rollins said in a statement. The vast majority of Agriculture Department employees already work outside the Washington area, spread across the country to assist farmers, conduct research and inspect animal and plant health. The agency's headquarters, though, are on the National Mall and house offices focused on civil rights, congressional relations and watchdog functions in addition to support staff. Ms. Rollins noted that more than 15,000 Agriculture Department employees — about 15 percent of the department's work force of about 100,000 — had taken buyouts. The consolidations and relocations will almost certainly lead to more exits. When the Agriculture Department moved two research agencies from Washington to Kansas City in 2019, each lost more than half of its staff before eventually recovering, according to the Government Accountability Office. The hubs will be Raleigh, N.C.; Kansas City, Mo.; Indianapolis; Fort Collins, Colo.; and Salt Lake City — all cities that already have regional offices. According to the memo, the Agriculture Department will also vacate, over the course of several years, the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center — a 115 year-old facility in Maryland that has contributed to improving the shelf life of butter, developing pesticides and creating new varieties of vegetables and fruits. The American Federation of Government Employees, a union of federal employees, criticized the move. 'This administration is moving at breakneck speed to slash the size of the federal government, often with little thought into the consequences this will have on the American people who rely on the services our members deliver,' Everett Kelley, the union's president, said in a statement.

USDA will relocate most of its DC-based workforce
The Department of Agriculture will relocate a majority of its Washington-based workforce to five other locations and shutter several key facilities in the capital region, including its main research center, the agency announced Thursday. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins told employees in a video message that the move is aimed at reducing costs and moving the agency's workforce, which is already primarily scattered across the country, 'closer to the people we serve.' About 2,600 out of 4,600 employees will be relocated to Salt Lake City; Fort Collins, Colorado; Indianapolis; Kansas City, Missouri; and Raleigh, North Carolina.

USDA will move most of Washington staff "closer to" farmers
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will shutter nearly all of its Washington, D.C. buildings and disperse most of its staff throughout the country, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins announced on Thursday. Why it matters: The USDA is one of several departments to majorly restructure during President Trump's second term, seeing more than 15,000 employees accept White House resignation offers. State of play: Most of the Washington-area staff will relocate to five locations around the country, Rollins confirmed in a statement. In a video message to employees, Rollins said that employees will be placed in Fort Collins, Colorado, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Missouri, Raleigh, North Carolina, and Salt Lake City. Staff will receive details about their new assignments in the coming months. The department will close nearly all of its D.C.-area buildings, except for the Whitten and Yates buildings on the National Mall. What they're saying: Rollins said that the move is a cost-cutting one in step with Trump's agenda to slash the federal budget. "President Trump has made it clear government needs to be scrutinized, and after this thorough review of USDA, the results show a bloated, expensive, and unsustainable organization," the department said in its statement. "However, there will be no large-scale reductions in force, given that the department has already seen an exodus of 15,364 employees through the administration's deferred resignation plan." Catch up quick: The department said last week that it fired 70 foreign contract researchers following a national security review intended to secure the U.S. food supply from adversaries that include Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.
