EXPLANATORY NOTE

Kirby Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A to amend and restate in their entirety the following items of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2020 (the “Original Form 10-Q”): (i) Item 1 of Part I “Financial Statements,” (ii) Item 2 of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” (iii) Item 4 of Part I, “Controls and Procedures,” and (iv) Item 6 of Part II, “Exhibits”, and the Company has also updated the signature page, the certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, and 32, and the financial statements formatted in Inline Extensible Business Reporting Language (“Inline XBRL”) in Exhibits 101 and 104. No other sections were affected, but for the convenience of the reader, this report on Form 10-Q/A restates in its entirety, as amended, the Company’s Original Form 10-Q. This report on Form 10-Q/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-Q and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement described below.

After the Company filed the original Form 10-Q, the Company determined that its results reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 in the Original Form 10-Q included a goodwill impairment expense that was understated as a result of not applying a specific provision of the Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”) which was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2020. ASU 2017-04 requires goodwill impairment be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit over the estimated fair value. Pursuant to paragraph 350-20-55-23A, the recognition of an impairment of goodwill loss creates a cycle of impairment because the decrease in book value of goodwill increases the deferred tax assets (or decreases the deferred tax liabilities), when tax-deductible goodwill is involved, such that the carrying amount of the reporting unit immediately exceeds its fair value upon recognition of the loss. As a result, a simultaneous equation prescribed by the accounting literature should be applied, which the Company did not apply.

The condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 included in this Form 10-Q/A have been restated to apply this equation of the new guidance in ASU 2017-04, and the Company increased its goodwill impairment charge in the three months ending March 31, 2020 by $127,933,000 before taxes, $98,773,000 after taxes or $1.65 per share resulting in total impairments and other charges of $561,274,000 before taxes, $433,341,000 after taxes or $7.24 per share. This adjustment does not affect previously reported cash flows or revenues, nor does it affect segment profit of the marine transportation or distribution and services segments reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. A detail of all adjustments recorded is included in Note 1, Basis for Preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements. The Company has made necessary conforming changes in Item 2 of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” resulting from the correction of this error.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1)	Basis for Preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by Kirby Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including significant accounting policies normally included in annual financial statements, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Certain reclassifications have been made to reflect the current presentation of financial information.

The condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 have been restated to apply a simultaneous equation to the calculated goodwill impairment, as prescribed by the accounting literature, to adjust for the cycle of goodwill impairment created by the decrease in deferred tax liabilities due to the impairment of tax deductible goodwill as described by paragraph 350-20-55-23A of Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2020, as discussed in Note 2, Accounting Standards Adoptions. The following table summarizes the effects of the restatement resulting from the correction of this error (in thousands):

(2)	Accounting Standards Adoptions

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740, Income Taxes. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans” which amends the annual disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans by removing certain requirements, providing clarification on existing requirements and adding new requirements including adding an explanation of the reasons for significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit obligation for the period. The guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update are required to be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” ~~(“ASU 2017-04”)~~ which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 in the goodwill impairment test that required an entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities at the testing date. An entity instead shall perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair ~~value.~~value, incorporating all tax impacts caused by the recognition of the impairment loss. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. See Note 1, Basis for Preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements and Note 8, Impairments and Other Charges for further ~~details.~~details.

(3)	Acquisitions

Revenues recognized in the 2020 and 2019 first quarters that were included in the opening contract liability balances were $32,386,000 and $50,921,000, respectively. The Company presents all contract liabilities within the deferred revenues financial statement caption on the balance sheets. The Company did 0t have any contract assets at March 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

The Company applies the practical expedient that allows non-disclosure of information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.

(5)	Segment Data

The Company’s operations are aggregated into 2 reportable business segments as follows:

Marine Transportation — Provides marine transportation principally by United States flag vessels of liquid cargoes throughout the United States inland waterway system, along all three United States coasts, in Alaska and Hawaii and, to a lesser extent, in United States coastal transportation of dry-bulk cargoes. The principal products transported include petrochemicals, black oil, refined petroleum products and agricultural chemicals.

Distribution and Services — Provides after-market services and parts for engines, transmissions, reduction gears and related equipment used in oilfield service, marine, power generation, on-highway, and other industrial applications. The Company also rents equipment including generators, industrial compressors, railcar movers, and high capacity lift trucks for use in a variety of industrial markets, and manufactures and remanufactures oilfield service equipment, including pressure pumping units, for land-based oilfield service customers.

The Company’s 2 reportable business segments are managed separately based on fundamental differences in their operations. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on the contributions to operating income of the respective segments, before income taxes, interest, gains or losses on disposition of assets, other nonoperating income, noncontrolling interests, accounting changes, and nonrecurring items. Intersegment revenues, based on market-based pricing, of the distribution and services segment from the marine transportation segment of $10,286,000 and $7,535,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as well as the related intersegment profit of $1,029,000 and $754,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, have been eliminated from the tables below.

(6)	Long-Term Debt

The Company has an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of commercial banks, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the administrative agent bank, allowing for an $850,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) and an unsecured term loan (“Term Loan”) with a maturity date of March 27, 2024. The Term Loan is repayable in quarterly installments currently scheduled to commence September 30, 2023, with $343,750,000 due on March 27, 2024. The Term Loan is prepayable, in whole or in part, without penalty. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $485,000,000 and availability of $359,637,000 under the Revolving Credit Facility and borrowings of $375,000,000 under the Term Loan. The interest rates under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan were 1.9% and 2.1%, respectively, at March 31, 2020.

On February 27, 2020, upon maturity, the Company repaid in full $150,000,000 of 2.72% unsecured senior notes.

The estimated fair value of total debt outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $1,810,159,000 and $1,421,325,000, respectively, which differs from the carrying amount of $1,702,493,000 and $1,369,767,000, respectively, included in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of debt outstanding was determined using inputs characteristic of a Level 2 fair value measurement.

(7)

Leases

The Company currently leases various facilities and equipment under cancelable and noncancelable operating leases. The accounting for the Company’s leases may require judgments, which include determining whether a contract contains a lease, allocated between lease and non-lease components, and determining the incremental borrowing rates. Leases with an initial noncancelable term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has also elected to combine lease and non-lease components on all classes of leased assets, except for leased towing vessels for which the Company estimates approximately 75% of the costs relate to service costs and other non-lease components. Variable lease costs relate primarily to real estate executory costs (i.e. taxes, insurance and maintenance).

Future minimum lease payments under operating leases that have initial noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year were as follows (in thousands):

	March 31,			December 31,
	2020			2019

(8)	Impairments and Other Charges

During the 2020 first quarter, Kirby’s market capitalization declined significantly compared to the 2019 fourth quarter. Over the same period, the overall United States stock market also declined significantly amid market volatility. In addition, as a result of uncertainty surrounding the outbreak of COVID-19 and a sharp decline in oil prices during the 2020 first quarter, many of the Company’s oil and gas customers responded by quickly cutting 2020 capital spending budgets and activity levels quickly declined. Lower activity levels have resulted in a decline in drilling activity, resulting in lower demand for new and remanufactured oilfield equipment and related parts and service in the distribution and services segment. As a result, the Company concluded that a triggering event had occurred and performed interim quantitative impairment tests as of March 31, 2020 for certain of the distribution and services segment’s long-lived assets and goodwill.

The Company determined the estimated fair value of such long-lived assets and reporting units using a discounted cash flow analysis and a market approach for comparable companies. This analysis included management’s judgment regarding short-term and long-term internal forecasts, updated for recent events, appropriate discount rates, and capital expenditures using inputs characteristic of a Level 3 fair value measurement.

In performing the impairment test of long-lived assets within the distribution and services segment, the Company determined that the carrying value of certain long-lived assets, including property and equipment as well as intangible assets associated with customer relationships, tradenames, and distributorships, were no longer recoverable, resulting in an impairment charge of $165,304,000 to reduce such long-lived assets to fair value.

Based upon the results of the goodwill impairment test, the Company concluded that the carrying value of one reporting unit in the distribution and services segment exceeded its estimated fair value. The goodwill impairment charge of $~~260,037,000~~387,970,000 was calculated as the amount that the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, and after recording impairments of long-lived assets identified above, exceeded its estimated fair ~~value.~~value, incorporating all tax impacts caused by the recognition of the impairment loss.

In addition, the Company determined cost exceeded net realizable value for certain oilfield and pressure pumping related inventory, resulting in an $8,000,000 non-cash write-down.

The following table summarizes the changes in goodwill (in thousands):

(9)	Stock Award Plans

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company granted 151,845 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 114,600 stock options to selected officers and other key employees under its employee stock award plan. The RSUs vest ratably over five years and the stock options become exercisable ratably over three years and expire after seven years.

During May 2020, the Company granted 39,913 shares of restricted stock to nonemployee directors of the Company under the director stock award plan. The restricted stock vests six months after the date of grant except that restricted stock granted in lieu of cash director fees vests in equal quarterly increments through March 31, 2021.

(10)	Taxes on Income

On March 27, 2020, the United States Congress passed and the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) into law to address the COVID-19 pandemic. One provision of the CARES Act allows net operating losses generated in 2018 through 2020 to be carried back up to five years. Pursuant to this provision of the CARES Act, the Company recorded a federal current benefit for taxes on income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to carrying back net operating losses generated between 2018 and 2020 used to offset taxable income generated between 2013 and 2017. This caused a reduction in the effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2020 as net operating losses carried back to tax years 2013 through 2017 are applied at a federal tax rate of 35% applicable to those tax years, compared to a 21% tax rate effective at March 31, 2020. Net operating losses generated in 2018 and 2019 were used to offset taxable income generated between 2013 and 2017 taxed at 35% resulting in a tax benefit of $50,284,000. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company’s deferred tax asset related to federal net operating losses decreased by $77,262,000.

The Company sponsors a defined benefit plan for certain of its inland vessel personnel and shore based tankermen. The plan benefits are based on an employee’s years of service and compensation. The plan assets consist primarily of equity and fixed income securities.

On April 12, 2017, the Company amended its pension plan to cease all benefit accruals for periods after May 31, 2017 for certain participants. Participants grandfathered and not impacted were those, as of the close of business on May 31, 2017, who either (a) had completed 15 years of pension service or (b) had attained age 50 and completed 10 years of pension service. Participants non-grandfathered are eligible to receive discretionary 401(k) plan contributions.

The Company’s pension plan funding strategy is to make annual contributions in amounts equal to or greater than amounts necessary to meet minimum government funding requirements. The plan’s benefit obligations are based on a variety of demographic and economic assumptions, and the pension plan assets’ returns are subject to various risks, including market and interest rate risk, making an accurate prediction of the pension plan contribution difficult. Based on current pension plan assets and market conditions, the Company does not expect to make a contribution to the Kirby pension plan during 2020.

On February 14, 2018, with the acquisition of Higman Marine, Inc. and its affiliated companies (“Higman”), the Company assumed Higman’s pension plan for its inland vessel personnel and office staff. On March 27, 2018, the Company amended the Higman pension plan to close it to all new entrants and cease all benefit accruals for periods after May 15, 2018 for all participants. The Company made a contribution of $483,000 to the Higman pension plan in the 2020 first quarter for the 2019 plan year. In addition, the Company made a contribution of $479,000 to the Higman pension plan during April 2020 for the 2020 plan year. The Company expects to make an additional contribution of $314,000 to the Higman pension plan during 2020 for the 2019 plan year and contributions of $958,000 for the 2020 plan year.

The Company sponsors an unfunded defined benefit health care plan that provides limited postretirement medical benefits to employees who meet minimum age and service requirements, and to eligible dependents. The plan limits cost increases in the Company’s contribution to 4% per year. The plan is contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The plan eliminated coverage for future retirees as of December 31, 2011. The Company also has an unfunded defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) that was assumed in an acquisition in 1999. That plan ceased to accrue additional benefits effective January 1, 2000.

(15)	Contingencies

On May 10, 2019, 2 tank barges and a towboat, the M/V Voyager, owned and operated by Kirby Inland Marine, LP (“Kirby Inland Marine”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, were struck by the LPG tanker, the Genesis River, in the Houston Ship Channel. The bow of the Genesis River penetrated the Kirby 30015T and capsized the MMI 3014. The collision penetrated the hull of the Kirby 30015T causing its cargo, reformate, to be discharged into the water. The United States Coast Guard (“USCG”) and the National Transportation Safety Board (“NTSB”) designated the owner and pilot of the Genesis River as well as the subsidiary of the Company as parties of interest in their investigation into the cause of the incident. On June 19, 2019, the Company filed a limitation action in the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of Texas - Galveston Division seeking limitation of liability and asserting that the Genesis River and her owner/manager are at fault for damages including removal costs and claims under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and maritime law. Multiple claimants have filed claims in the limitation seeking damages under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. The Company has various insurance policies covering liabilities including pollution, marine and general liability and believes that it has satisfactory insurance coverage for the potential liabilities arising from the incident. The Company believes it has accrued adequate reserves for the incident and does not expect the incident to have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition.

On October 13, 2016, the tug Nathan E. Stewart and barge DBL 55, an articulated tank barge and tugboat unit (“ATB”) owned and operated by Kirby Offshore Marine, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, ran aground at the entrance to Seaforth Channel on Atholone Island, British Columbia. The grounding resulted in a breach of a portion of the Nathan E. Stewart’s fuel tanks causing a discharge of diesel fuel into the water. The USCG and the NTSB designated the Company as a party of interest in their investigation as to the cause of the incident. The Canadian authorities including Transport Canada and the Canadian Transportation Safety Board investigated the cause of the incident. On October 10, 2018, the Heiltsuk First Nation filed a civil action in the British Columbia Supreme Court against a subsidiary of the Company, the master and pilot of the tug, the vessels and the Canadian government seeking unquantified damages as a result of the incident. On May 1, 2019, the Company filed a limitation action in the Federal Court of Canada seeking limitation of liability relating to the incident as provided under admiralty law. The Heiltsuk First Nation’s civil claim has been consolidated into the Federal Court limitation action as of July 26, 2019 and it is expected that the Federal Court of Canada will decide all claims against the Company. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure in the civil proceeding. The Company has various insurance policies covering liabilities including pollution, property, marine and general liability and believes that it has satisfactory insurance coverage for the cost of cleanup and salvage operations as well as other potential liabilities arising from the incident. The Company believes it has accrued adequate reserves for the incident and does not expect the incident to have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition.

On March 22, 2014, 2 tank barges and a towboat, the M/V Miss Susan, owned by Kirby Inland Marine, were involved in a collision with the M/S Summer Wind on the Houston Ship Channel near Texas City, Texas. The lead tank barge was damaged in the collision resulting in a discharge of intermediate fuel oil from 1 of its cargo tanks. The Company is participating in the natural resource damage assessment and restoration process with federal and state government natural resource trustees. The Company believes it has adequate insurance coverage for pollution, marine and other potential liabilities arising from the incident. The Company believes it has accrued adequate reserves for the incident and does not expect the incident to have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition.

In addition, the Company is involved in various legal and other proceedings which are incidental to the conduct of its business, none of which in the opinion of management will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Management believes that it has recorded adequate reserves and believes that it has adequate insurance coverage or has meritorious defenses for these other claims and contingencies.

The Company has issued guaranties or obtained standby letters of credit and performance bonds supporting performance by the Company and its subsidiaries of contractual or contingent legal obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries incurred in the ordinary course of business. The aggregate notional value of these instruments is $23,219,000 at March 31, 2020, including $11,344,000 in letters of credit and $11,875,000 in performance bonds. All of these instruments have an expiration date within two years. The Company does not believe demand for payment under these instruments is likely and expects no material cash outlays to occur regarding these instruments.

(16)	Subsequent Event

On April 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of the inland tank barge fleet of Savage Inland Marine, LLC (“Savage”) for $277,931,000 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Savage’s tank barge fleet consisted of 92 inland tank barges with approximately 2.6 million barrels of capacity and 46 inland towboats. The Savage assets that were acquired primarily move petrochemicals, refined products, and crude oil on the Mississippi River, its tributaries, and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The Company also acquired Savage’s ship bunkering business and barge fleeting business along the Gulf Coast.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, any projections contained herein, are forward-looking statements. These statements reflect management’s reasonable judgment with respect to future events. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” or “continue,” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated as a result of various factors including cyclical or other downturns in demand, significant pricing competition, unanticipated additions to industry capacity, changes in the Jones Act or in United States maritime policy and practice, fuel costs, interest rates, weather conditions and timing, magnitude and number of acquisitions made by the Company, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related response of governments on global and regional market conditions. Forward-looking statements are based on currently available information and Kirby assumes no obligation to update any such statements. A list of additional risk factors can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Item 1A — Risk Factors below.

For purposes of the Management’s Discussion, all net earnings (loss) per share attributable to Kirby common stockholders are “diluted earnings (loss) per share.” The weighted average number of common shares applicable to diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were 59,883,000 and 59,823,000, respectively. The increase in the weighted average number of common shares for the 2020 first quarter compared with the 2019 first quarter primarily reflected the issuance of restricted stock, the issuance of common stock for the vesting of RSUs and the exercise of stock options, partially offset by the exclusion of anti-dilutive stock options and RSUs outstanding during the 2020 first quarter.

Overview

The Company is the nation’s largest domestic tank barge operator, transporting bulk liquid products throughout the Mississippi River System, on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, coastwise along all three United States coasts, and in Alaska and Hawaii. The Company transports petrochemicals, black oil, refined petroleum products and agricultural chemicals by tank barge. As of March 31, 2020, the Company operated a fleet of 1,065 inland tank barges with 23.7 million barrels of capacity, and operated an average of 311 inland towboats. The Company’s coastal fleet consisted of 49 tank barges with 4.7 million barrels of capacity and 47 coastal tugboats. The Company also owns and operates four offshore dry-bulk cargo barges, four offshore tugboats and one docking tugboat transporting dry-bulk commodities in United States coastal trade. Through its distribution and services segment, the Company provides after-market service and parts for engines, transmissions, reduction gears, and related equipment used in oilfield services, marine, power generation, on-highway, and other industrial applications. The Company also rents equipment including generators, industrial compressors, railcar movers, and high capacity lift trucks for use in a variety of industrial markets, and manufactures and remanufactures oilfield service equipment, including pressure pumping units, for land-based oilfield service customers.

For the 2020 first quarter, the net loss attributable to Kirby was ~~$248,468,000,~~$347,241,000, or ~~$4.15~~$5.80 per share, on revenues of $643,926,000, compared with 2019 first quarter net earnings attributable to Kirby of $44,296,000, or $0.74 per share, on revenues of $744,621,000. The 2020 first quarter included ~~$433,341,000~~$561,274,000 before taxes, ~~$334,568,000~~$433,341,000 after taxes, or ~~$5.59~~$7.24 per share, non-cash charges related to inventory write-downs, impairment of long-lived assets, including intangible assets and property and equipment, and impairment of goodwill in the distribution and services segment. See Note 8, Impairments and Other Charges for additional information. In addition, the 2020 first quarter was favorably impacted by an income tax benefit of $50,824,000, or $0.85 per share related to net operating losses generated in 2018 and 2019 used to offset taxable income generated between 2013 and 2017. See Note 10, Taxes on Income for additional information.

Marine Transportation

For the 2020 first quarter, the Company’s marine transportation segment generated 63% of the Company’s revenue. The segment’s customers include many of the major petrochemical and refining companies that operate in the United States. Products transported include intermediate materials used to produce many of the end products used widely by businesses and consumers — plastics, fiber, paints, detergents, oil additives and paper, among others, as well as residual fuel oil, ship bunkers, asphalt, gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, crude oil, natural gas condensate, and agricultural chemicals. Consequently, the Company’s marine transportation business is directly affected by the volumes produced by the Company’s petroleum, petrochemical and refining customer base.

The Company’s marine transportation segment’s revenues for the 2020 first quarter increased 10% and operating income increased 43% compared with the 2019 first quarter revenues and operating income. The increases were primarily due to the addition of the Cenac Marine Services, LLC (“Cenac”) fleet acquired on March 14, 2019, and increased spot and term contract pricing in the inland and coastal markets. The 2020 and 2019 first quarters were impacted by poor operating conditions and high delay days due to heavy fog and wind along the Gulf Coast, high water on the Mississippi River System, and closures of key waterways as a result of lock maintenance projects, as well as increased shipyard days on large capacity coastal vessels. The 2019 first quarter was also impacted by prolonged periods of ice on the Illinois River and a fire at a chemical storage facility on the Houston Ship Channel. For the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, the inland tank barge fleet contributed 79% and 77%, respectively, and the coastal fleet contributed 21% and 23%, respectively, of marine transportation revenues.

Inland tank barge utilization levels averaged in the low to mid-90% range during the 2020 first quarter compared with the low 90% range during the 2019 fourth quarter and mid-90% range during the 2019 first quarter. The 2020 and 2019 first quarters each experienced strong demand from petrochemicals, black oil, and refined petroleum products customers. Extensive delay days due to poor operating conditions and lock maintenance projects in the 2020 and 2019 first quarters slowed the transport of customer cargoes and contributed to strong utilization during the 2020 and 2019 first quarters.

Coastal tank barge utilization levels averaged in the low to mid-80% range during the 2020 first quarter compared with the mid-80% range during the 2019 fourth quarter and the low 80% range in the 2019 first quarter. Utilization in the coastal marine fleet continued to be impacted by the oversupply of smaller tank barges in the coastal industry.

During the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, approximately 60% and 65%, respectively, of marine transportation’s inland revenues were under term contracts, which have contract terms of 12 months or longer, and 40% and 35%, respectively, were spot contract revenues, which have contract terms of less than 12 months. Inland time charters during the 2020 first quarter represented 65% of the inland revenues under term contracts compared with 62% in the 2019 first quarter. Rates on inland term contracts renewed in the 2020 first quarter increased in the 1% to 3% average range compared with term contracts renewed in the 2019 first quarter. Spot contract rates in the 2020 first quarter increased in the 4% to 6% average range compared to both the 2019 fourth quarter and the 2019 first quarter. There was no material rate increase on January 1, 2020 related to annual escalators for labor and the producer price index on a number of inland multi-year contracts.

During the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, approximately 85% and 80%, respectively, of the coastal revenues were under term contracts and 15% and 20%, respectively, were spot contract revenues. Coastal time charters represented approximately 90% and 85% of coastal revenues under term contracts during the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, respectively. Spot and term contract pricing in the coastal market are contingent on various factors including geographic location, vessel capacity, vessel type, and product serviced. Rates on coastal term contracts renewed in the 2020 first quarter increased in the 10% to 15% average range compared with term contracts renewed in the 2019 first quarter. Spot market rates in the 2020 first quarter improved in the 10% to 15% average range compared to the 2019 first quarter and were generally unchanged compared to the 2019 fourth quarter.

The marine transportation segment operating margin was 12.6% for the 2020 first quarter compared with 9.6% for the 2019 first quarter.

Distribution and Services

For the 2020 first quarter, the distribution and services segment generated 37% of the Company’s revenue, of which 91% was generated from service and parts and 9% from manufacturing. The results of the distribution and services segment are largely influenced by the economic cycles of the oilfield service and oil and gas operator and producer markets, marine, power generation, on-highway, and other industrial markets.

Distribution and services revenues for the 2020 first quarter decreased 36% and operating income decreased 90% compared with the 2019 first quarter revenue and operating income. The decreases were primarily attributable to reduced activity in the oilfield as a result of oil price volatility throughout 2019 and into the 2020 first quarter, the extensive downturn in oil and gas exploration due to the COVID-19 pandemic, an oversupply of pressure pumping equipment in North America, and reduced spending and enhanced cash flow discipline for the Company’s major oilfield customers. As a result, customer demand and incremental orders for new and remanufactured pressure pumping equipment and sales of new and overhauled transmissions and related parts and service declined during the 2020 first quarter. For the 2020 first quarter, the oil and gas market contributed 33% of the distribution and services revenues.

The commercial and industrial market, which contributed 67% of the distribution and services revenues for the 2020 first quarter, increased compared to the 2019 first quarter, primarily due to the contribution from the Convoy acquisition. This incremental revenue was partially offset by reductions in on-highway and power generation service demand as a result of the COVID-19 economic slowdown and nationwide, state, and local stay-at-home orders. Demand in the nuclear power generation market was stable compared to the 2019 first quarter.

The distribution and services segment operating margin for the 2020 first quarter was 1.5% compared with 10.0% for the 2019 first quarter.

Cash Flows and Capital Expenditures

The Company continued to generate favorable operating cash flows during the 2020 first quarter with net cash provided by operating activities of $71,501,000 compared with $38,529,000 for the 2019 first quarter, an 86% increase. The improvement was driven by increased revenues and operating income in the marine transportation segment driven by the Cenac acquisition in March 2019 and increased inland and coastal pricing. The improvement was also due to changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily related to reduced incentive compensation payouts in the 2020 first quarter and smaller increases in trade accounts receivable, partially offset by reduced business activity levels in the oil and gas market. In addition, during the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, the Company generated cash of $3,993,000 and $13,187,000, respectively, from proceeds from the disposition of assets, and $353,000 and $1,415,000, respectively, from proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

For the 2020 first quarter, cash generated and borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility were used for capital expenditures of $49,225,000 (net of an increase of accrued capital expenditures of $2,707,000), including $3,094,000 for inland towboat construction and $46,131,000 primarily for upgrading existing marine equipment and marine transportation and distribution and services facilities. The Company also used $60,422,000 for acquisitions of businesses and marine equipment, more fully described under Acquisitions below.

The Company’s debt-to-capitalization ratio increased to ~~35.3%~~36.0% at March 31, 2020 from 28.9% at December 31, 2019, primarily due to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility to purchase the Savage fleet, which was completed on April 1, 2020, and the Convoy acquisition in the 2020 first quarter and the decrease in total equity, primarily from the net loss attributable to Kirby for the 2020 first quarter of ~~$248,468,000.~~$347,241,000. The Company’s debt outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is detailed in Long-Term Financing below.

During the 2020 first quarter, the Company purchased three newly constructed inland pressure barges, retired one inland tank barge, and brought back into service 10 inland tank barges. The net result was an increase of 12 inland tank barges and approximately 334,000 barrels of capacity during the 2020 first quarter.

Given the current uncertainty surrounding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company projects that capital expenditures for 2020 will be at or below the low end of the previously disclosed $155,000,000 to $175,000,000 range. The 2020 construction program will consist of $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 in progress payments on the construction of six inland towboats to be placed in service in 2020 and 2021. Approximately $125,000,000 to $135,000,000 is primarily capital upgrades and improvements to existing marine equipment and facilities. The balance of $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 will be for new machinery and equipment, facilities improvements and information technology projects in the distribution and services segment and corporate. Funding for future capital expenditures is expected to be provided through operating cash flows and borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.

Outlook

While there remains significant uncertainty around the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the inland marine transportation market, the Company anticipates reduced consumer demand for petrochemicals, crude oil, and refined products associated with COVID-19. With refineries and petrochemical plants reducing utilization rates to align with declining demand, the Company’s inland barge utilization has declined to levels around 90% during April, and further volume declines may occur going forward. However, the long-term nature of many of the Company’s inland contracts and flexibility of the Company’s inland barge fleet should help insulate some of the decline in business activity. Opportunities for storage, product relocations, and upcoming lock maintenance projects should also help mitigate lower demand. The Company has also implemented cost saving measures, including reductions in the charter boat fleet, which represents approximately one-fourth of operating towboat capacity. The Company is also integrating and pursuing cost synergies with the newly acquired Savage fleet.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company estimated there were approximately 4,000 inland tank barges in the industry fleet, of which approximately 350 were over 30 years old and approximately 260 of those over 40 years old. The Company estimates that approximately 130 tank barges have been ordered for delivery throughout 2020 and many older tank barges, including an expected 10 by the Company, will be retired, dependent on 2020 market conditions. Historically, 75 to 150 older inland tank barges are retired from service each year industry-wide, with the extent of the retirements dependent on petrochemical and refinery production levels, and crude oil and natural gas condensate movements, both of which can have a direct effect on industry-wide tank barge utilization, as well as term and spot contract rates.

In the coastal marine transportation market, although approximately 85% of revenues are under long-term contracts, the Company expects quarterly revenues and barge utilization to decline in 2020 as a result of COVID-19. In April, the Company has experienced a decline in utilization related to spot moves of refined products as customer refinery runs and global demand have declined. Labor constraints in the shipyard industry due to excessive absenteeism as a result of COVID-19 have also resulted in some delays and extended shipyard periods for some of the Company’s large capacity vessels. During 2020, the Company expects to retire four aging coastal ATBs, three of which are large capacity vessels that would have required uneconomic ballast water management systems at their next shipyard date. These retirements are expected to have a negative impact on coastal revenues and operating income during the year. The Company also expects volumes in its coal transportation business to decline compared to 2019.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company estimated there were approximately 280 tank barges operating in the 195,000 barrels or less coastal industry fleet, the sector of the market in which the Company operates, and approximately 20 of those were over 25 years old. The Company is aware of one announced coastal tank barge and tugboat unit in the 195,000 barrels or less category delivered during the 2020 second quarter in addition to one under construction by a competitor for delivery in 2021.

The results of the distribution and services segment are largely influenced by the economic cycles of the land-based oilfield service and oil and gas operator and producer markets, marine, power generation, on-highway and other industrial markets. Activity in oil and gas is expected to materially decline with all major customers curtailing spending for the duration of 2020. This is likely to result in only minimal levels of service and parts sales in distribution, as well as very few, if any, new orders for pressure pumping equipment in manufacturing.

For the distribution and services commercial and industrial market, the Company anticipates its core markets will be impacted by reduced activity as a result of COVID-19, however, the commercial marine repair markets and the Thermo-King refrigeration businesses are expected to remain relatively stable for the near term. The most significant impacts in commercial and industrial are expected to be seen in the on-highway sector with reduced demand for bus repair and in lower power generation activity as customers defer some of their large capital projects. The Company is actively managing the distribution and services segment’s cost structure through workforce reductions, furloughs, reduced work schedules, and pay freezes. Additionally, the Company expects to consolidate additional facilities and maintain tight discretionary spending restrictions.

Acquisitions

On April 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of the inland tank barge fleet of Savage for $277,931,000 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Savage’s tank barge fleet consisted of 92 inland tank barges with approximately 2.6 million barrels of capacity and 46 inland towboats. The Savage assets that were acquired primarily move petrochemicals, refined products, and crude oil on the Mississippi River, its tributaries, and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The Company also acquired Savage’s ship bunkering business and barge fleeting business along the Gulf Coast.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company purchased three newly constructed inland pressure barges for $20,100,000 in cash.

On January 3, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the assets of Convoy for $40,322,000 in cash, reduced by a receivable due from Convoy of $3,142,000 recorded for post-closing adjustments that was settled in April 2020. Convoy is an authorized dealer for Thermo King refrigeration systems for trucks, railroad cars and other land transportation markets for North and East Texas and Colorado.

Financing of the acquisitions was through borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.

Marine Transportation

The Company, through its marine transportation segment, provides marine transportation services, operating tank barges and towing vessels transporting bulk liquid products throughout the Mississippi River System, on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, coastwise along all three United States coasts and in Alaska and Hawaii. The Company transports petrochemicals, black oil, refined petroleum products, and agricultural chemicals by tank barge. As of March 31, 2020, the Company operated 1,065 inland tank barges, of which 24 were leased, with a total capacity of 23.7 million barrels, and an average of 311 towboats, of which an average of 77 were chartered. This compares with 1,061 inland tank barges operated as of March 31, 2019, of which 28 were leased, with a total capacity of 23.6 million barrels, and an average of 286 towboats, of which an average of 81 were chartered.

The Company’s coastal tank barge fleet as of March 31, 2020, consisted of 49 tank barges, of which two were leased, with 4.7 million barrels of capacity, and an average of 47 tugboats, of which an average of five were chartered. This compares with 51 coastal tank barges operated as of March 31, 2019, of which three were leased, with 4.9 million barrels of capacity, and an average of 47 tugboats, of which an average of four were chartered. The Company owns and operates four offshore dry-bulk cargo barge and tugboat units engaged in the offshore transportation of dry-bulk cargoes. The Company also owns shifting operations and fleeting facilities for dry cargo barges and tank barges on the Houston Ship Channel and in Freeport, Texas, a shipyard for building towboats and performing routine maintenance near the Houston Ship Channel, as well as a two-thirds interest in Osprey Line, L.L.C., which transports project cargoes and cargo containers by barge.

Marine Transportation Revenues

The following table shows the marine transportation markets serviced by the Company, the marine transportation revenue distribution, products moved and the drivers of the demand for the products the Company transports:

Markets Serviced	2020 First Quarter Revenue Distribution	Products Moved	Drivers
Petrochemicals	51%	Benzene, Styrene, Methanol, Acrylonitrile, Xylene, Naphtha, Caustic Soda, Butadiene, Propylene	Consumer non-durables — 70%, Consumer durables — 30%

Black Oil	26%	Residual Fuel Oil, Coker Feedstock, Vacuum Gas Oil, Asphalt, Carbon Black Feedstock, Crude Oil, Natural Gas Condensate, Ship Bunkers	Fuel for Power Plants and Ships, Feedstock for Refineries, Road Construction

Refined Petroleum Products	20%	Gasoline, No. 2 Oil, Jet Fuel, Heating Oil, Diesel Fuel, Ethanol	Vehicle Usage, Air Travel, Weather Conditions, Refinery Utilization

Agricultural Chemicals	3%	Anhydrous Ammonia, Nitrogen-Based Liquid Fertilizer, Industrial Ammonia	Corn, Cotton and Wheat Production, Chemical Feedstock Usage

Marine transportation revenues for the 2020 first quarter increased 10% compared with the 2019 first quarter. The increase was primarily due to the addition of the Cenac fleet acquired on March 14, 2019 and increased spot and term contract pricing in the inland and coastal markets. The 2020 and 2019 first quarters were impacted by poor operating conditions and high delay days due to heavy fog and wind along the Gulf Coast, high water on the Mississippi River System, and closures of key waterways as a result of lock maintenance projects, as well as increased shipyard days on large capacity coastal vessels. The 2019 first quarter was also impacted by prolonged periods of ice on the Illinois River and a fire at a chemical storage facility on the Houston Ship Channel. For the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, the inland tank barge fleet contributed 79% and 77%, respectively, and the coastal fleet contributed 21% and 23%, respectively, of marine transportation revenues.

Inland tank barge utilization levels averaged in the low to mid-90% range during the 2020 first quarter compared with the low 90% range during the 2019 fourth quarter and mid-90% range during the 2019 first quarter. The 2020 and 2019 first quarters each experienced strong demand from petrochemicals, black oil, and refined petroleum products customers. Extensive delay days due to poor operating conditions and lock maintenance projects in the 2020 and 2019 first quarters slowed the transport of customer cargoes, and contributed to strong utilization during the 2020 and 2019 first quarters.

The petrochemical market, the Company’s largest market, contributed 51% of marine transportation revenues for the 2020 first quarter, reflecting continued stable volumes from Gulf Coast petrochemical plants for both domestic consumption and to terminals for export destinations. The decrease compared to the 2019 first quarter reflects a change in product mix as a result of the purchase of the Cenac fleet in March 2019. Low priced domestic natural gas, a basic feedstock for the United States petrochemical industry, provides the industry with a competitive advantage relative to naphtha-based foreign petrochemical producers. In addition, favorable commodity prices and the addition of new petrochemical industry capacity during 2019 and the 2020 first quarter benefited the market.

The black oil market, which contributed 26% of marine transportation revenues for the 2020 first quarter, reflected continued stable demand from steady refinery production levels and the export of refined petroleum products and fuel oils. The increase compared to the 2019 first quarter reflects a change in product mix as a result of the purchase of the Cenac fleet in March 2019. The Company continued to transport crude oil and natural gas condensate produced from the Eagle Ford and Permian Basin shale formations in Texas, both along the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway with inland vessels and in the Gulf of Mexico with coastal equipment. Additionally, the Company transported increased volumes of Utica natural gas condensate downriver from the Mid-Atlantic to the Gulf Coast and Canadian and Bakken crude downriver from the Midwest to the Gulf Coast.

The refined petroleum products market, which contributed 20% of marine transportation revenues for the 2020 first quarter reflected increased volumes in the inland market, due in part to the acquisition of the Cenac fleet, and stable volumes in coastal.

The agricultural chemical market, which contributed 3% of marine transportation revenues for the 2020 first quarter, saw typical seasonal demand for transportation of both domestically produced and imported products during the quarter.

For the 2020 first quarter, the inland operations incurred 4,490 delay days, 3% fewer than the 4,613 delay days that occurred during the 2019 first quarter. Delay days measure the lost time incurred by a tow (towboat and one or more tank barges) during transit when the tow is stopped due to weather, lock conditions, or other navigational factors. Delay days for the 2020 and 2019 first quarter reflected poor operating conditions due to heavy fog and wind along the Gulf Coast, high water conditions on the Mississippi River System, and closures of key waterways as a result of lock maintenance projects. The 2019 first quarter was also impacted by prolonged periods of ice on the Illinois River and a fire at a chemical storage facility on the Houston Ship Channel.

Marine Transportation Costs and Expenses

Costs and expenses for the 2020 first quarter increased 6% compared with the 2019 first quarter. Costs of sales and operating expenses for the 2020 first quarter increased 8% compared with the 2019 first quarter, primarily due to the addition of the Cenac fleet in March 2019.

The inland marine transportation fleet operated an average of 311 towboats during the 2020 first quarter, of which an average of 77 were chartered, compared with 286 during the 2019 first quarter, of which an average of 81 were chartered. The increase was primarily due to the addition of inland towboats with the Cenac acquisition on March 14, 2019. Generally, as demand or anticipated demand increases or decreases, as new tank barges are added to the fleet, as chartered towboat availability changes, or as weather or water conditions dictate, the Company charters in or releases chartered towboats in an effort to balance horsepower needs with current requirements. The Company has historically used chartered towboats for approximately one-fourth of its horsepower requirements.

During the 2020 first quarter, the inland operations consumed 12.6 million gallons of diesel fuel compared to 11.4 million gallons consumed during the 2019 first quarter. The average price per gallon of diesel fuel consumed during the 2020 first quarter was $2.00 per gallon compared with $1.93 per gallon for the 2019 first quarter. Fuel escalation and de-escalation clauses on term contracts are designed to rebate fuel costs when prices decline and recover additional fuel costs when fuel prices rise; however, there is generally a 30 to 90 day delay before contracts are adjusted. Spot contracts do not have escalators for fuel.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the 2020 first quarter decreased 4% compared with the 2019 first quarter. The Company experienced higher professional fees in the 2019 first quarter including Cenac acquisition related costs of $247,000.

Taxes, other than on income, for the 2020 first quarter increased 18% compared with the 2019 first quarter, primarily due to higher property taxes on marine transportation equipment, including the Cenac fleet, and higher waterway use taxes due to higher business activity levels, primarily due to the Cenac acquisition.

Marine Transportation Operating Income and Operating Margins

Marine transportation operating income for the 2020 first quarter increased 43% compared with the 2019 first quarter. The 2020 first quarter operating margin was 12.6% compared with 9.6% for the 2019 first quarter. The operating income increase in the 2020 first quarter, compared to the 2019 first quarter, was primarily due to the acquisition of Cenac and increased spot and term contract pricing in the inland and coastal markets.

Distribution and Services

The Company, through its distribution and services segment, sells genuine replacement parts, provides service mechanics to overhaul and repair engines, transmissions, reduction gears and related oilfield services equipment, rebuilds component parts or entire diesel engines, transmissions and reduction gears, and related equipment used in oilfield services, marine, power generation, on-highway and other industrial applications. The Company also rents equipment including generators, industrial compressors, railcar movers, and high capacity lift trucks for use in a variety of industrial markets, and manufactures and remanufactures oilfield service equipment, including pressure pumping units, for land-based oilfield service customers.

The following table sets forth the Company’s distribution and services segment’s revenues, costs and expenses, operating income and operating margins (dollars in thousands):

	Three months ended March 31,

Distribution and Services Revenues

The following table shows the markets serviced by the Company’s distribution and services segment, the revenue distribution, and the customers for each market:

Markets Serviced	2020 First Quarter Revenue Distribution	Customers
Oil and Gas	33%	Oilfield Services, Oil and Gas Operators and Producers

Commercial and Industrial	67%	Inland River Carriers — Dry and Liquid, Offshore Towing — Dry and Liquid, Offshore Oilfield Services — Drilling Rigs & Supply Boats, Harbor Towing, Dredging, Great Lakes Ore Carriers, Pleasure Crafts, On and Off-Highway Transportation, Power Generation, Standby Power Generation, Pumping Stations

Distribution and services revenues for the 2020 first quarter decreased 36% compared with the 2019 first quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced activity in the oilfield as a result of oil price volatility throughout 2019 and into the 2020 first quarter, an oversupply of pressure pumping equipment in North America, and reduced spending and enhanced cash flow discipline for the Company’s major oilfield customers in addition to the impact of COVID-19 later in the quarter. As a result, customer demand and incremental orders for new and remanufactured pressure pumping equipment and sales of new and overhauled transmissions and related parts and service declined during the 2020 first quarter. For the 2020 first quarter, the oil and gas market contributed 33% of the distribution and services revenues.

The commercial and industrial market, which contributed 67% of the distribution and services revenues for the 2020 first quarter, increased compared to the 2019 first quarter, primarily due to the contribution from the Convoy acquisition. This incremental revenue was partially offset by reductions in on-highway and power generation service demand as a result of the COVID-19 economic slowdown and nationwide stay-at-home orders. Demand in the nuclear power generation market was stable compared to the 2019 first quarter.

Distribution and Services Costs and Expenses

Costs and expenses for the 2020 first quarter decreased 30% compared with the 2019 first quarter. Costs of sales and operating expenses for the 2020 first quarter decreased 35%, compared with the 2019 first quarter, reflecting lower demand for new and overhauled transmissions and related parts and service and reduced demand for new pressure pumping equipment in the oil and gas market.

Distribution and Services Operating Income and Operating Margins

Operating income for the distribution and services segment for the 2020 first quarter decreased 90% compared with the 2019 first quarter. The operating margin for the 2020 first quarter was 1.5% compared with 10.0% for the 2019 first quarter. The results primarily reflected a small decrease in margins in the commercial and industrial market and losses in oil and gas market.

Gain on Disposition of Assets

The Company reported a net gain on disposition of assets of $492,000 for the 2020 first quarter compared with a net gain of $2,157,000 for the 2019 first quarter. The net gains were primarily from sales of marine equipment. The 2019 first quarter also included sales of distribution and services’ properties.

Other Income and Expenses

See Note 8, Impairments and Other Charges for additional information.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income for the 2020 and 2019 first quarters includes income of $2,172,000 and $446,000, respectively, for all components of net benefit costs except the service cost component related to the Company’s defined benefit plans.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the 2020 first quarter decreased 3% compared with the 2019 first quarter, primarily due to a lower average debt outstanding as a result of debt repayments throughout 2019, partially offset by borrowings to finance the Convoy acquisition in January 2020 and the Savage acquisition which closed April 1, 2020. During the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, the average debt and average interest rate (excluding capitalized interest) were $1,442,032,000 and 3.5%, and $1,459,373,000 and 3.8%, respectively. Interest expense excludes capitalized interest of $643,000 for the 2019 first quarter. No interest was capitalized for the 2020 first quarter.

Current assets as of March 31, 2020 increased 49% compared with December 31, 2019. Cash and cash equivalents increased to $322,571,000 at March 31, 2020 from $24,737,000 at December 31, 2019, primarily due to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for the purchase of the Savage fleet, which was completed April 1, 2020. Trade accounts receivable increased 3% primarily due to increased activities in the inland marine transportation market and the Convoy acquisition. Other accounts receivable increased 144%, primarily due to income taxes receivable recorded for net operating losses generated during tax years 2018 through 2020 offset against taxable income during tax years 2013 through 2017 under provisions of the CARES Act. Inventories, net decreased by 3% primarily due to reduced business activity levels in the oil and gas market and write downs of oilfield and pressure pumping related inventory, partially offset by inventory acquired from Convoy.

Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, at March 31, 2020 decreased slightly compared with December 31, 2019. The decrease reflected $51,616,000 of depreciation expense, $16,395,000 of impairment charges, and $4,762,000 of property disposals during the 2020 first quarter, offset by $51,932,000 of capital expenditures (inclusive of accrued capital expenditures) for the 2020 first quarter, more fully described under Cash Flows and Capital Expenditures above, the three newly constructed inland pressure barges purchased in the 2020 first quarter for $20,100,000, and the aggregate fair value of the property and equipment acquired in the Convoy acquisition of $415,000.

Goodwill as of March 31, 2020 decreased ~~26%~~40% compared with December 31, 2019, primarily due to a goodwill impairment in the distribution and services segment, partially offset by goodwill recorded as part of the Convoy acquisition.

Other intangibles, net, as of March 31, 2020 decreased 65% compared with December 31, 2019, primarily due to impairments of customer relationship, tradename, and distributorship assets in the distribution and services segment as well as amortization of intangibles, partially offset by intangible assets recorded as part of the Convoy acquisition.

2627

Current liabilities as of March 31, 2020 decreased 3% compared with December 31, 2019. Accounts payable increased 10%, primarily due to the Convoy acquisition and increased activity levels in the inland market, partially offset by decreased shipyard maintenance accruals on coastal equipment. Accrued liabilities decreased 13% primarily from payment during the 2020 first quarter of employee incentive compensation bonuses accrued during 2019. Deferred revenues decreased 14%, primarily reflecting reduced business activity levels in the distribution and services oil and gas market.

Long-term debt, net – less current portion, as of March 31, 2020 increased 24% compared with December 31, 2019, primarily reflecting additional borrowings of $485,000,000 under the Revolving Credit Facility, partially offset by the repayment of $150,000,000 of 2.72% unsecured senior notes upon maturity. Net debt discount and deferred issuance costs were $7,524,000 at March 31, 2020 and $5,249,000 (excluding $2,650,000 attributable to the Revolving Credit Facility included in other assets on the balance sheet) at December 31, 2019.

Deferred income taxes as of March 31, 2020 decreased 1%6% compared with December 31, 2019, primarily reflecting the 2020 first quarter deferred tax benefit of ~~$6,082,000.~~$35,242,000.

Other long-term liabilities as of March 31, 2020 decreased 3% compared with December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to amortization of intangible liabilities and a decrease in pension liabilities.

Total equity as of March 31, 2020 decreased 7%10% compared with December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of a net loss attributable to Kirby of ~~$248,468,000~~$347,241,000 for the 2020 first quarter and tax withholdings of $3,165,000 on restricted stock and RSU vestings, partially offset by an increase in additional paid-in capital due to amortization of unearned share-based compensation of $5,331,000.

The Company has a Credit Agreement with a group of commercial banks, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the administrative agent bank, allowing for an $850,000,000 Revolving Credit Facility and a Term Loan with a maturity date of March 27, 2024. The Term Loan is repayable in quarterly installments currently scheduled to commence September 30, 2023, with $343,750,000 due on March 27, 2024. The Term Loan is prepayable, in whole or in part, without penalty. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $25,000,000 commitment which may be used for standby letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility were $5,363,000 and available borrowing capacity was $359,637,000 as of March 31, 2020.

On February 27, 2020, upon maturity, the Company repaid in full $150,000,000 of 2.72% unsecured senior notes.

Outstanding letters of credit under the $10,000,000 credit line were $1,171,000 and available borrowing capacity was $8,829,000 as of March 31, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its debt instruments. For additional information about the Company’s debt instruments, see “Long-Term Financing” in Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 8, Long-Term Debt, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Treasury Stock Purchases

The Company did not purchase any treasury stock during the 2020 first quarter. As of May 7, 2020, the Company had approximately 1,400,000 shares available under its existing repurchase authorization. Historically, treasury stock purchases have been financed through operating cash flows and borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility. The Company is authorized to purchase its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange and in privately negotiated transactions. When purchasing its common stock, the Company is subject to price, trading volume and other market considerations. Shares purchased may be used for reissuance upon the exercise of stock options or the granting of other forms of incentive compensation, in future acquisitions for stock or for other appropriate corporate purposes.

Liquidity

The Company generated net cash provided by operating activities of $71,501,000 and $38,529,000 for the 2020 and 2019 first quarters, respectively. The increase was driven by increased revenues and operating income in the marine transportation segment driven by the Cenac acquisition in March 2019 and increased inland and coastal pricing. The improvement was also due to changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily related to reduced incentive compensation payouts in the 2020 first quarter and smaller increases in trade accounts receivable, partially offset by reduced business activity levels in the oil and gas market of the distribution and services segment.

Funds generated from operations are available for acquisitions, capital expenditure projects, common stock repurchases, repayments of borrowings, and for other corporate and operating requirements. In addition to net cash flows provided by operating activities, as of May 7, 2020, the Company also had cash equivalents of $73,818,000, availability of $359,637,000 under its Revolving Credit Facility, and $8,829,000 available under its Credit Line.

Neither the Company, nor any of its subsidiaries, is obligated on any debt instrument, swap agreement, or any other financial instrument or commercial contract which has a rating trigger, except for the pricing grid on its Credit Agreement.

The Company expects to continue to fund expenditures for acquisitions, capital construction projects, common stock repurchases, repayment of borrowings, and for other operating requirements from a combination of available cash and cash equivalents, funds generated from operating activities and available financing arrangements.

The Revolving Credit Facility’s commitment is in the amount of $850,000,000 and expires March 27, 2024. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $359,637,000 available under the Revolving Credit Facility. The 3.29% senior unsecured notes do not mature until February 27, 2023 and require no prepayments. The 4.2% senior unsecured notes do not mature until March 1, 2028 and require no prepayments. The outstanding balance of the Term Loan is subject to quarterly installments, currently scheduled to commence September 30, 2023, with $343,750,000 due on March 27, 2024. The Term Loan is prepayable, in whole or in part, without penalty.

There are numerous factors that may negatively impact the Company’s cash flows in 2020. For a list of significant risks and uncertainties that could impact cash flows, see Item 1A — Risk Factors below and Note 15, Contingencies, in the financial statements, and Item 1A — Risk Factors and Note 15, Contingencies and Commitments, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Amounts available under the Company’s existing financial arrangements are subject to the Company continuing to meet the covenants of the credit facilities as described in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under Long-Term Financing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

All marine transportation term contracts contain fuel escalation clauses, or the customer pays for the fuel. However, there is generally a 30 to 90 day delay before contracts are adjusted depending on the specific contract. In general, the fuel escalation clauses are effective over the long-term in allowing the Company to recover changes in fuel costs due to fuel price changes. However, the short-term effectiveness of the fuel escalation clauses can be affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, specific terms of the fuel escalation formulas, fuel price volatility, navigating conditions, tow sizes, trip routing, and the location of loading and discharge ports that may result in the Company over or under recovering its fuel costs. Spot contract rates generally reflect current fuel prices at the time the contract is signed but do not have escalators for fuel.

During the last three years, inflation has had a relatively minor effect on the financial results of the Company. The marine transportation segment has long-term contracts which generally contain cost escalation clauses whereby certain costs, including fuel as noted above, can be passed through to its customers. Spot contract rates include the cost of fuel and are subject to market volatility. The repair portion of the distribution and services segment is based on prevailing current market rates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is exposed to risk from changes in interest rates on certain of its outstanding debt. The outstanding loan balances under the Company’s bank credit facilities bear interest at variable rates based on prevailing short-term interest rates in the United States and Europe. A 10% change in variable interest rates would impact the 2020 interest expense by $206,000 based on balances outstanding at December 31, 2019, and would change the fair value of the Company’s debt by less than 1%.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. ~~The~~As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and ~~the~~ Chief Financial Officer ~~has evaluated~~(“CFO”), carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in ~~Rule~~Rules 13a-15(e) ~~under~~and 15d-15(e) of the ~~Securities~~ Exchange ~~Act~~Act). Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded at that time that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~1934 (“Exchange Act”)),~~the end of the period covered by this report.

Subsequent to this evaluation and in light of the restatement of the Company’s condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 relating to goodwill impairment discussed in Note 1, Basis for Preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements, the Company’s management, with the participation of the CEO and the CFO, has reevaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020, including whether the error identified was the result of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to the failure to adequately respond to changes that significantly impacted control activities and the Company’s system of internal control. The Company did not properly amend policies and procedures associated with the application of the new accounting standard applicable to the measurement of goodwill impairment, specifically the considerations for taxes on income, and as a result failed to develop appropriate control activities to adequately respond to the risks and significant changes identified. As a result, the CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020 as ~~required by Rule 13a-15(b) under~~a result of this material weakness.

Remediation Plan. The Company plans to amend its control activities designed to mitigate the ~~Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2020, the disclosure controls~~significant risks identified, including updating its policies and procedures ~~were effective~~regarding the recognition of goodwill impairments, specifically to ~~ensure that information required to be disclosed~~review the considerations of all tax impacts caused by the recognition of such goodwill impairments. The Company ~~in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized~~believes implementation of these processes and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate ~~to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.~~testing of their effectiveness will remediate this material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the first quarter of 2020, certain distribution and services branch locations completed the preparation and implementation of a series of changes to their financial reporting systems and processes. Certain other distribution and services branch locations are expected to complete similar implementations in future periods throughout 2020. There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The discussion of the legal proceedings related to the M/V Voyager and the legal proceedings related to the tug Nathan E. Stewart and barge DBL 55 in Note 15, Contingencies, of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Widespread health developments and economic uncertainty resulting from the recent global COVID-19 pandemic could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In December 2019, COVID-19 surfaced in Wuhan, China. In response to the resulting pandemic, various countries, including the United States, have either mandated or recommended business closures, travel restrictions or limitations, social distancing, and/or self-quarantine, among other actions. Additionally, various state and local governments in locations where the Company operates have taken similar actions. The full impact and duration of the outbreak is unknown and the situation is rapidly evolving as some governments are in the early stages of removing or easing these actions, but there has been a negative impact on the global and United States economies, including the oil and gas industry, which has reduced demand for the Company’s products and services. The extent and duration of these impacts is unknown at this time.

These impacts could place limitations on the Company’s ability to execute on its business plan and materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company continues to monitor the situation, has actively implemented policies and procedures to address the situation, including its pandemic response plan and business continuity plan, and has taken steps to reduce costs. As the pandemic continues to further unfold, the Company may adjust its current policies and procedures as government mandates or recommendations change or as more information and guidance become available. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other risks discussed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, any of which could have a material effect on the Company. This situation is changing rapidly and additional impacts may arise that the Company is not aware of currently.

There have been no other material changes that the Company is aware of from the risk factors previously disclosed in its “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
