[*]FedEx's ground operating income margin fell to 12.6% in the third quarter compared to 16.5% in the same period last year, partly pressured by peak and e-commerce demand. [*]FedEx is undertaking pricing initiatives in order to increase margins and adapt to customer behavior. [*]Capital spending requirements increased.
