ALARIO RICHARD J 4

What Happened
Richard J. Alario, a director of Kirby Corporation (KEX), received an award of 1,392 common shares on May 4, 2026. The Form 4 reports the shares were acquired at $0.00 (transaction code A for award/grant), so the filing shows no cash paid for the shares.

Context
An "award" typically reflects compensation or equity granted under a company plan; the $0.00 acquisition price in the Form 4 indicates the shares were granted rather than bought on the open market and does not represent their market value. Awards can be subject to vesting or other plan conditions—those specifics were not listed in the provided filing excerpt. For investors, awards show the company is granting equity to insiders but do not necessarily signal immediate buying or selling sentiment.
