Explanatory Note

Kirby Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K, as initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 25, 2024 (the “Initial Form 8-K”), solely to provide certain information called for under Item 5.02(e) that was not previously filed with the Initial Form 8‑K as it was not determined at the time of filing. Except as provided herein, the disclosures in the Initial Form 8-K remain unchanged.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

As previously disclosed, with effect on April 26, 2024, at the conclusion of the Company’s 2024 Annual Stockholder Meeting, Christian G. O’Neil, was appointed as Kirby’s President and Chief Operating Officer. As President and Chief Operating Officer, Mr. O’Neil is responsible for the day to day operations of both Kirby’s marine transportation and distribution and services segments. In connection with this appointment, Mr. O’Neil’s salary was increased to $674,428 effective as of April 26, 2024. No other changes were made to his compensatory arrangements in connection with Mr. O’Neil’s appointment as Kirby’s President and Chief Operating Officer, except that effective as of April 26, 2024, Mr. O’Neil’s 2024 incentive compensation will be based on overall Company performance instead of a blend of corporate and the marine transportation segment.

 

Effective with Mr. O’Neil’s appointment as Kirby’s President and Chief Operating Officer, David W. Grzebinski’s title changed to Chief Executive Officer.
