Description: WKC World Kinect November 13, 2025
World Kinect Corporation (NYSE: WKC) is a global energy-management firm serving aviation, land-based, and marine markets across the United States and more than 30 countries. Its Aviation segment provides jet fuel, ground handling, dispatch and flight-planning services to airlines, cargo carriers, governments and military customers. The Land segment sells gasoline, diesel, heating oil and lubricants to retail operators and commercial/industrial end-users, while also offering natural-gas, power supply, renewable-fuel and carbon-management solutions. The Marine segment supplies bunker fuel, lubricants and procurement-management services to container ships, tankers, cruise lines and governmental fleets.
In FY 2023 the company reported roughly $9.2 billion in revenue, with aviation accounting for about 60 % of total sales and a reported average EBITDA margin near 5 %. Volume-based KPIs show the firm moving roughly 1.5 million barrels of fuel per day, a figure that is sensitive to jet-fuel price volatility and the IMO 2020 sulfur-limit compliance costs faced by its marine customers. A key sector driver is the accelerating demand for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which the International Air Transport Association projects to grow at a compound annual rate of ~30 % through 2030, potentially opening higher-margin opportunities for WKC’s renewable-fuel offerings.
