Dahlman Rose initiates coverage on Kirby Corporation (NYSE: KEX) with a Buy. PT $76.00.

Dahlman analyst says, "Kirby is the largest player in the US inland and coastal oil transport sector and is a growing provider of diesel engine servicing. We are quite optimistic on the outlook for these two segments in the coming years. Its transportation segment currently represents ~80% of operating income, while its engine servicing segment accounts for the remainder. We believe management's forward-thinking approach to its operation within these businesses will pay off handsomely for shareholders."
