O'Neil Christian G. 4

What Happened
Christian G. O'Neil, President and Chief Operating Officer of Kirby Corp (KEX), received a grant of 11,690 restricted stock units (RSUs) on January 30, 2026. The award is reported as a derivative acquisition (code A) at $0.00 — an equity compensation grant rather than a cash purchase. The RSUs represent a contingent right to receive either cash or common stock of the issuer when they vest.

• Transaction date and type: 2026-01-30 — Grant/Award of 11,690 RSUs (transaction code A), reported at $0.00 per unit.
• Vesting: RSUs vest in five equal annual installments beginning February 3, 2027 (footnote). On each vesting date the company may deliver cash or shares at its election.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing summary.
• Filing timeliness: Form 4 filed 2026-02-03 — appears timely (filed within the required two business days).
• Footnotes: F1 clarifies each RSU is a contingent right to cash or one share; F2 details the five-year annual vesting schedule and delivery mechanics.

Context
This is a compensation award (common for executives) rather than an open-market purchase or sale, so it signals company compensation policy more than immediate insider buying or selling. Because RSUs convert to cash or stock only upon vesting, they do not represent immediately tradable shares.
