Kirby reported 7.8% revenue growth in the second quarter, helped by strong demand for its marine business, but higher fuel costs and shipyard activity are squeezing margins and putting pricing recovery in the spotlight.
Kirby (KEX) reported 7.8% revenue growth in the second quarter, driven by strong demand in its marine business. Rising fuel costs and shipyard activity are putting pressure on margins, and attention is shifting to whether pricing can recover.
