Rhea-AI Filing Summary

WORLD KINECT CORP senior vice president and chief accounting officer Michael John Kroll reported equity compensation and related tax withholding transactions in company common stock. On May 10, 2026, he received a grant of 4,988 shares of common stock at $0.00 per share, reflecting a share award rather than an open-market purchase.

On the same date, multiple blocks of previously granted restricted stock units vested and settled, including 833, 803, 1,115, and 933 units. For these vestings, the issuer withheld an aggregate of 899 shares of common stock at a price of $27.07 per share to cover Kroll’s tax liabilities, which are recorded as tax-withholding dispositions rather than market sales.

The newly granted 4,988 restricted stock units are scheduled to vest in four equal annual installments beginning on May 10, 2027, providing Kroll with a multi‑year equity incentive tied to continued service and company performance.

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
