Kforce Director Brooks Receives Dividend-Related Restricted Shares and RSUs

According to the filing, the transaction date for both reported items is September 11, 2026, which corresponds to the record date for a cash dividend of $0.40 per share that Kforce Inc. declared on July 24, 2026. The dividend is payable on September 25, 2026. The additional 38 shares of restricted stock received by Brooks were granted in connection with that dividend and are subject to the vesting terms of his existing restricted stock agreement(s), the filing states.

The common stock entry in Table I carries transaction code J and reflects a price of $0, with the filing noting this discloses "a change in the form of beneficial ownership from direct to indirect that is exempt from reporting under Rule 16a-13." Following the transaction, Brooks's total direct beneficial ownership of common stock stands at 6,969 shares, which the filing notes includes 4,858 shares of restricted stock.

In Table II, the filing reports 83 restricted stock units acquired under transaction code J, also at $0, described as "a dividend that is exempt from reporting under Rule 16a." Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Kforce Inc. common stock, according to the filing. The RSUs vest one year from their respective grant dates, subject to Brooks's continued service, and dividend equivalent rights accrue as dividends are paid on Kforce Inc. common stock. Following the reported transaction, Brooks holds 10,642 RSUs directly. The form was signed by Susan A. Gager as attorney-in-fact for Derrick D. Brooks on September 15, 2026.
