24h Move is the share-price change in the day after each event; other market factors may also have contributed.
Operational earnings reports have produced larger moves, including both strong rallies and a sharp selloff, while prior earnings date announcements saw modest, low-volatility reactions.
Over the last few quarters, Kirby has reported growing earnings and revenues, with Q2 and Q3 2025 results both highlighting solid operational performance and active share repurchases. A new authorization for up to 8.8 million shares reinforced capital return. However, market reactions have varied: Q3 2025 results saw a +13.93% move, while Q2 2025 results coincided with a -20.57% reaction. Prior earnings date notices (on Jun 30 and Sep 30) led to small, mixed price changes, similar in nature to today’s scheduling update.
