Expeditors International of Washington, Inc. (EXPD), headquartered in Bellevue, is a leading global logistics and supply chain services company, offering services such as freight forwarding (air & ocean), customs brokerage, vendor consolidation, insurance, warehousing & distribution, order management, and specialized project cargo. It operates through a large network of more than 340 locations in over 100 countries, providing integrated information systems and highly customized logistics solutions. Its market capitalization stands at $16.3 billion.
Companies with a market cap of $10 billion or more are typically classified as “large-cap stocks,” signifying firms with deep financial resources, international reach, and strong competitive positioning. Expeditors International fits comfortably into this category, highlighting Expeditors’ strength in offering highly optimized, adaptable freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and logistics solutions.
EXPD stock is around 8.7% below its 52-week high of $131.59, reached on Sept. 30, 2024. Shares of Expeditors have gained 6.3% over the past three months, underperforming the broader Nasdaq Composite’s ($NASX) 15.8% rise over the same time frame.
A similar trend is seen over the longer term. EXPD stock has gained 8.5% on a year-to-date (YTD) basis but declined 4.4% over the past 52 weeks, compared to NASX’s steady gains of 17.2% YTD and 25.6% surge over the past year.
EXPD has been quietly building momentum. After months of choppy trade, it found its footing in May, climbing above its 50-day moving average with fluctuations. By August, it pushed past the 200-day line, a classic bullish signal.
EXPD has underperformed with its stock price declining notably amid weakness in freight demand, trade-uncertainties, tariff risks, and margin pressures, weighing on investor sentiment. However, the stock has started to regain some traction, supported by stronger Q2 results.
Expeditors International released its Q2 2025 earnings results on Aug. 5, with revenue rising 9% year-over-year (YoY) to $2.7 billion despite a challenging global logistics climate, while EPS came in at $1.34, an 8% gain over the same quarter last year. Shares ticked 2.1% higher in the following trading session, hinting at renewed traction.
Expeditors has outperformed its peer, FedEx Corporation’s (FDX) 17.6% drop in 2025 and 22.9% decline over the past year.
However, Wall Street analysts remain bearish on EXPD’s prospects. The stock has a consensus “Moderate Sell” rating from the 15 analysts covering it. Meanwhile, it is trading above the mean price target of $112.92.
