New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - July 14, 2020) - Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of Kirby Corporation ("Kirby" or the "Company") (NYSE: KEX). Investors who purchased Kirby securities are encouraged to obtain additional information and assist the investigation by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/kex.

The investigation concerns whether Kirby and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated federal securities laws.

On July 10, 2020, Kirby revealed that "[o]n July 8, 2020, Kirby . . . determined that it will be required to restate its previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 previously filed on Form 10-Q on May 8, 2020. This determination occurred following discussions of the matter between KPMG and the officers of the Company. Accordingly, investors should no longer rely upon previously issued financial statements included in the Company's previously filed Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020." Kirby continued to state that it ". . . has determined its non-cash non-recurring goodwill impairment charge for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was understated by $127,933,000 before taxes, $98,773,000 after taxes, or a $1.65 loss per share, due to not applying a specific provision of a new accounting standard that the Company had recently adopted on January 1, 2020." Following this news, Kirby stock dropped roughly 2.47% during intra-day trading on July 13, 2020.
