With the announcement of Marshall, that someone was kind enough to link, there are only 15 non-closing Kmarts left, of which 9 are stateside. Of those stateside 9, all but Hamilton (Mountain) & Grass Valley (Pacific) are in Eastern Time Zone. Obviously, the 6 territorial stores in Guam, USVI, and PR, are in the respective Time Zones of those territories.
I'm honestly surprised that Miami isn't closing, because it is walkable to Target, which is almost always a Death nail for Kmart. Also, no idea why they keep Hato Rey PR Kmart which literally shares a parking lot with its sister store, Hato Rey Sears. In addition, they have the 2 Bronx stores, which are maybe 4 miles apart. Wouldn't surprise me if those go next (and no, they're not confirmed yet, for the person who will invariably ask).
This also knocks out a pharmacy, leaving only 2 stateside, one on the East Coast, and one on the West Coast. Honestly not sure why they continue to pretend to be in the pharmacy business at this point.
So here is the list, and the statistics portion remains as always:
We are now at 15 Kmarts total, 9 of which are in the US. I have changed my map to reflect this as well:

Statistics: Kmart absent in 45 states. Now we have 2 states, CA, & MT, with only 1 each. There are 9 Kmarts in United "States", total. Of those in the US, ONLY 2, marked with letter "P", have pharmacies as well as 4 more pharmacies in the territories, also marked with letter "P".
Additionally, Puerto Rico has 1 Kmart, USVI has 4, Guam has 1, so there are 6 total stores outside of the US. Total of 15 total Kmarts left as of now that are not closed or closing.
States with more than 1 Kmart:
