EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited, and certain information and footnote disclosures related thereto normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Eastman Kodak Company (“EKC” or the “Company”) and all companies directly or indirectly controlled, either through majority ownership or otherwise (collectively, “Kodak”). The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. These consolidated interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-07, Compensation—Retirements Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.  ASU 2017-07 requires entities to report the service cost component in the same line item(s) as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period and to report all other components of net benefit costs outside a subtotal of income from operations. In addition, the ASU allows only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 (January 1, 2018 for Kodak). Kodak adopted ASU 2017-07 effective January 1, 2018, retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost and other cost components and prospectively for the application of the capitalization eligibility. The components of net benefit cost are shown in Note 14, “Retirement Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits”. The guidance impacted presentation in Kodak’s consolidated financial statements and the capitalization of costs to inventory. The presentation of the service cost component was consistent with the requirements of the new standard. The other components (which were presented within Cost of revenues, Selling and general administrative expenses and Research and development costs) are being presented separately on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The segment measure of profit and loss previously included only the service cost and amortization of prior service credits components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs (refer to Note 20, “Segment Information”). Effective January 1, 2018, the segment measure of profit and loss only includes the service cost component of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs and prior periods have been reclassified to conform to this presentation.  

 

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. ASU 2017-05 defines in-substance nonfinancial assets, provides guidance with respect to accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets and conforms the derecognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new revenue standard (Topic 606 as described below). ASU 2017-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 (January 1, 2018 for Kodak) and allows either a full retrospective adoption to all periods presented or a modified retrospective adoption approach with the cumulative effect of initial application recognized at the date of initial application. Kodak adopted ASU 2017-05 effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective adoption approach.  The application of this standard did not have a significant impact on Kodak’s consolidated financial statements.  

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Topic 825): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Under the ASU all equity investments in unconsolidated entities (other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting) will generally be measured at fair value through earnings. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The classification and measurement guidance is effective for Kodak beginning January 1, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Kodak adopted ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Kodak’s consolidated financial statements.    

 

[7]


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new revenue standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 (January 1, 2018 for Kodak) and allows either a full retrospective adoption to all periods presented or a modified retrospective adoption approach with the cumulative effect of initial application recognized at the date of initial application. Kodak adopted the provisions of the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method which allows companies to record a one-time adjustment to opening retained earnings for the cumulative effect the standard will have on open contracts at the time of adoption. Kodak derives revenue from various brand licensing arrangements, which may include upfront payments and/or sales based royalties subject to minimum annual guaranteed amounts. Kodak recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of approximately $10 million as a decrease to the opening balance of retained earnings related to these arrangements. With the exception of brand license revenue, Kodak did not identify any changes in the timing of revenue recognition that resulted in a material transition adjustment. 

 

The cumulative effect of the changes made to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position for January 1, 2018 for the adoption of ASU 2014-09 were as follows.  The net reduction in opening retained earnings primarily reflected the impact related to brand licensing revenues.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”. The ASU addresses certain stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”). The ASU provides an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within AOCI to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the 2017 Tax Act (or portion thereof) is recorded and requires additional disclosures. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (January 1, 2019 for Kodak) and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and may be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the 2017 Tax Act is recognized. Kodak is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected.  In addition, the ASU requires credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses.  The amendments in this ASU broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (January 1, 2020 for Kodak).  Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 (January 1, 2019 for Kodak).  Kodak is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.  

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets and eliminates certain real estate-specific provisions. The new leasing standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 (January 1, 2019 for Kodak).  Early adoption is permitted. Kodak plans to adopt the new standard on the effective date and is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements.  Kodak anticipates that the adoption of the amended lease guidance will materially affect its Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and will require certain changes to its systems and processes.  

 

 

NOTE 2: CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

On September 3, 2013, the Company entered into (i) a Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement (the “First Lien Term Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto (the “First Lien Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Barclays Bank PLC, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and (ii) a Senior Secured Second Lien Term Credit Agreement (the “Second Lien Term Credit Agreement,” and together with the First Lien Term Credit Agreement, the “Term Credit Agreements”), with the lenders party thereto (the “Second Lien Lenders,” and together with the First Lien Lenders, the “Term Credit Lenders”), Barclays Bank PLC as administrative agent, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Barclays Bank PLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners.  Additionally, the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) entered into an Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement” and together with the Term Credit Agreements, the “Credit Agreements”) with the lenders party thereto (the “ABL Lenders” and together with the First Lien Lenders and the Second Lien Lenders, the “Lenders”) and Bank of America N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent, Barclays Bank PLC as syndication agent and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc., Barclays Bank PLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners.  Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreements, the Term Credit Lenders provided the Company with term loan facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $695 million, consisting of $420 million of first-lien term loans (the “First Lien Loans”) and $275 million of second-lien term loans (the “Second Lien Loans”).  Net proceeds from the Term Credit Agreements were $664 million ($695 million aggregate principal less $15 million stated discount and $16 million in debt transaction costs). The loans  made under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement become due on the earlier to occur of (i) the maturity date of September 3, 2019 or (ii) the acceleration of such loans following the occurrence of an event of default (as defined in the First Lien Term Credit Agreement).  The Second Lien Term Credit Agreement was prepaid and terminated on November 15, 2016.  

 

The Credit Agreements limit, among other things, the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ ability to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur or create liens, (iii) dispose of assets, (iv) make restricted payments (including dividend payments, et al.) and (v) make investments.  In addition to other customary affirmative covenants, the Credit Agreements provide for a periodic delivery by the Company of its various financial statements as set forth in the Credit Agreements.  Events of default under the Credit Agreements include, among others, failure to pay any loan, interest or other amount due under the applicable credit agreement, breach of specific covenants and a change of control of the Company.  Upon an event of default, the applicable lenders may declare the outstanding obligations under the applicable credit agreement to be immediately due and payable and exercise other rights and remedies provided for in such credit agreement.

 

The First Lien Loans bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 6.25% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1% or Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the First Lien Term Credit Agreement) plus 5.25%.   Each existing and future direct or indirect U.S. subsidiary of the Company (other than immaterial subsidiaries, unrestricted subsidiaries and certain other subsidiaries) have agreed to provide unconditional guarantees of the obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreements. Subject to certain exceptions, obligations under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement are secured by: (i) a first lien on all assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, other than the ABL Collateral (as defined below), including a first lien on 100% of the stock of material domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of material first-tier foreign subsidiaries (collectively the “Term Collateral”) and (ii) a second lien on the ABL Collateral. Obligations under the Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by: (i) a first lien on cash, accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment (the “ABL Collateral”) and (ii) a second lien on the Term Collateral.  The Company may voluntarily prepay the First Lien Loan. 

 

As defined in the First Lien Term Credit Agreement, the Company is required to prepay loans with net proceeds from asset sales, recovery events or issuance of indebtedness, subject to, in the case of net proceeds received from asset sales or recovery events, reinvestment rights by the Company in assets used or usable by the business within certain time limits.  During 2016 and 2017, Kodak prepaid $11 million of principal under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement.  Under the terms of the First Lien Term Credit Agreement, the prepayments were applied first to the installment principal

[11]


payments of $4 million due over the next twelve months, then ratably to the remaining scheduled payments.  With the prepayments, Kodak does not owe any future scheduled principal payments until the maturity date of the loan.

On an annual basis, the Company will prepay on June 30 of the following fiscal year loans in an amount equal to a percentage of Excess Cash Flow (“ECF”) as defined in the First Lien Term Credit Agreement, provided no such prepayment is required if such prepayment would cause U.S. liquidity (as defined in the First Lien Term Credit Agreement) to be less than $100 million or the Secured Leverage ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.00.  For the year ended December 31, 2017 ECF was a negative amount.   Therefore, no prepayment of First Lien term debt was required.  Any mandatory prepayments as described above shall be reduced by any mandatory prepayments of the First Lien Loan.

 

Under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain a Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined therein) not to exceed specified levels. The Secured Leverage Ratio under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement is tested at the end of each quarter based on the prior four quarters.  The maximum Secured Leverage Ratio permitted under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement is  2.75:1.  As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Kodak was in compliance with all covenants under the First Lien Term Credit Agreement.  

 

Under the terms of the Credit Agreements, the Company may designate Restricted Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries provided the aggregate sales of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries are less than 7.5% of the consolidated sales of Kodak and the aggregate assets of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries are less than 7.5% of Kodak’s consolidated assets.  Further, under the Amended Credit Agreement, on a pro forma basis at the time of designation and immediately after giving effect thereto, Excess Availability must be at least $30 million and the pro forma Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio must be no less than 1.0 to 1.0.  Upon designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, the Company will be required to provide to the Lenders reconciling statements to eliminate all financial information pertaining to Unrestricted Subsidiaries which is included in its annual and quarterly financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the Company designated five subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, Kodak PE Tech, LLC, Kodak LB Tech, LLC, Kodak Realty, Inc., Kodakit Singapore Pte. Limited and KP Services (Jersey) Ltd.  This action allowed the Company to better position assets which may be monetized in the future and address costs related to underutilized properties.  Collectively, these subsidiaries had sales of approximately $2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and assets of $23 million as of March 31, 2018, which represent 0% and 1%, respectively, of Kodak’s consolidated sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and consolidated assets as of March 31, 2018. Each of the capitalized but undefined terms has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreements.

 

Kodak intends to conduct its operations in a manner that will result in continued compliance with the Credit Agreements; however, compliance for future quarters may depend on Kodak undertaking one or more non-operational transactions, such as the repatriation of cash into the U.S., the management of operating cash outflows, the designation of additional subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, a monetization of assets, a debt refinancing, the raising of equity capital, or a similar transaction.  If Kodak is unable to remain in compliance and does not make alternate arrangements with its term lenders, an event of default would occur under Kodak’s credit agreements which, among other remedies, would entitle the lenders or their agents to declare the outstanding obligations under the Term Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.  There is no assurance Kodak will be able to complete any non-operational transaction it may undertake to maintain compliance with covenants under the Credit Agreements or to refinance, or otherwise pay, the First Lien Loans on or before the maturity date of September 3, 2019 or the obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement on June 6, 2019 if the First Lien Loans are not refinanced or paid on or before such date.

 

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On May 26, 2016, the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement” or “ABL Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative and collateral agent, and Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, which amended and restated the existing Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of September 3, 2013 (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). Each of the capitalized but undefined terms used in the context of describing the Amended Credit Agreement has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Amended Credit Agreement.

 

The Amended Credit Agreement decreased the aggregate amount of commitments from $200 million to $150 million and extended the maturity date to the earlier of May 26, 2021 or the date that is 90 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date of any of the Company’s outstanding term loans or refinancings thereof, of which the earliest maturity date is currently September 3, 2019.   The Amended Credit Agreement, among other things, lowered reserve requirements by eliminating the Availability Block and removed the ability to use Qualified Cash to support Excess Availability.

 

Each existing direct or indirect U.S. subsidiary of the Company (other than Immaterial Subsidiaries, Unrestricted Subsidiaries and certain other subsidiaries) has reaffirmed its unconditional guarantee (and any such future subsidiaries must provide an unconditional guarantee) of the obligations of the Company under the Amended Credit Agreement.

 

The Lenders will make available asset-based revolving loans (the “ABL Loans”) and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $150 million, subject to the Borrowing Base.  The Company has issued approximately $79 million and $96 million of letters of credit under the Amended Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.  The Company had approximately $36 million and $20 million of Excess

[12]


Availability under the Amended Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.  Availability is subject to the borrowing base calculation, reserves and other limitations.

 

The ABL Loans bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% - 2.75% per annum or Base Rate plus 1.25% - 1.75% per annum based on Excess Availability.

 

Excess Availability is equal to the sum of (i) 85% of the amount of the Eligible Receivables less a Dilution Reserve, (ii) the lesser of 85% of Net Orderly Liquidation Value or 75% of the Eligible Inventory (iii) the lesser of 75% of Orderly Liquidation Value of Eligible Equipment or $14 million, as of March 31, 2018 (which $14 million decreases by $1 million per quarter) and (iv) Eligible Cash less (a) Rent and Charges Reserves, (b) Principal Outstanding and (c) Outstanding Letters of Credit.

 

Under the Amended Credit Agreement, Kodak is required to maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 when Excess Availability is less than 12.5% of lender commitments.  As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 12.5% of lender commitments were $18.75 million. 

 

If Excess Availability falls below 12.5% of lender commitments, Kodak may, in addition to the requirement to be in compliance with the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, become subject to cash dominion control.  Since Excess Availability was greater than 12.5% of lender commitments at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Kodak is not required to have a minimum Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.  As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Kodak was in compliance with all the covenants under the Amended Credit Agreement. 

 

 

NOTE 7: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of March 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $79 million issued under the Amended Credit Agreement, as well as bank guarantees and letters of credit of $4 million, surety bonds in the amount of $53 million, and restricted cash and deposits of $26 million, primarily to ensure the payment of possible casualty and workers’ compensation claims, environmental liabilities, legal contingencies and rental payments and to support various customs, tax and trade activities. The restricted cash and deposits are reflected in Restricted cash, Other current assets and Other long-term assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Kodak’s Brazilian operations are involved in various litigation matters and have received or been the subject of numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes in various stages of litigation, as well as civil litigation and disputes associated with former employees and contract labor.  The tax matters, which comprise the majority of the litigation matters, are primarily related to federal and state value-added taxes.  Kodak is disputing these matters and intends to vigorously defend its position. Kodak routinely assesses all these matters as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability in its Brazilian operations and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable. As of March 31, 2018, the unreserved portion of these contingencies, inclusive of any related interest and penalties, for which there was at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred, amounted to approximately $24 million.

In connection with assessments in Brazil, local regulations may require Kodak to post security for a portion of the amounts in dispute. As of March 31, 2018, Kodak has posted security composed of $6 million of pledged cash reported within Restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and liens on certain Brazilian assets with a net book value of approximately $71 million.  Generally, any encumbrances on the Brazilian assets would be removed to the extent the matter is resolved in Kodak's favor.

Kodak is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, remediations and proceedings, including, from time to time, commercial, customs, employment, environmental, tort and health and safety matters, which are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of business.  Kodak is also subject, from time to time, to various assertions, claims, proceedings and requests for indemnification concerning intellectual property, including patent infringement suits involving technologies that are incorporated in a broad spectrum of Kodak’s products.  These matters are in various stages of investigation and litigation and are being vigorously defended.  Based on information currently available, Kodak does not believe that it is probable that the outcomes in any of these matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.  Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and judgments could be rendered or settlements entered that could adversely affect Kodak’s operating results or cash flows in a particular period.  Kodak routinely assesses all of its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable.

 

NOTE 8: GUARANTEES

EKC guarantees obligations to third parties for some of its consolidated subsidiaries. The maximum amount guaranteed is $7 million and the outstanding amount for those guarantees is $3 million.

In connection with the settlement of certain of the Company’s historical environmental liabilities at Eastman Business Park, in the event the historical liabilities exceed $99 million, the Company will become liable for 50% of the portion above $99 million with no limitation to the maximum potential future payments. There is no liability recorded for this guarantee.

[13]


Extended Warranty Arrangements

Kodak offers its customers extended warranty arrangements that are generally one year, but may range from three months to six years after the original warranty period.  The change in Kodak’s deferred revenue balance in relation to these extended warranty and maintenance arrangements from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, which is reflected in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was as follows:

NOTE 9:  REVENUE

 

Revenue Recognition

Kodak’s revenue transactions include sales of products (such as components and consumables for use in Kodak and other manufacturers’ equipment and film based products); equipment; software; services; integrated solutions; and intellectual property and brand licensing. Revenue from services includes extended warranty, customer support and maintenance agreements, consulting, business process services, training and education.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration Kodak expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

For product sales (such as plates, film, inks and other consumables) revenue is recognized when control has transferred from Kodak to the buyer, which may be upon shipment or upon delivery to the customer site, based on contract terms or legal requirements in certain jurisdictions. Service revenue is recognized using the time-based method ratably over the contractual period as it best depicts when the customer receives the benefit from the service.  Service revenue for time and materials based agreements is recognized as services are performed.

 

Equipment is generally dependent on, and interrelated with, the underlying operating system (firm ware) and cannot function without the operating system. In these cases, the hardware and software license are accounted for as a single performance obligation. Contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations including equipment, and optional software licenses and service agreements. Service agreements may be prepaid or paid over-time and range from three months to six years. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost-plus margin.

 

For non-complex equipment installations and software sales (Prepress, Packaging and Prosper Components and Unified Workflow Solutions businesses) revenue is recognized when control of each distinct performance obligation has transferred from Kodak to the buyer, which is generally met when the equipment or software is delivered and installed at the customer site as delivery and installation generally occur within the same period.  For complex equipment installations or integrated software solutions (Prosper Presses, Electrophotographic Printing Solutions Printers, Unified Workflow Solutions) revenue is deferred until receipt of customer acceptance and control has transferred to the buyer.

 

Software licenses are sold both in bundled equipment arrangements as discussed above or on a stand-alone basis (Unified Workflow Solutions business).  Software licenses are generally perpetual and are usually sold with post-contract support services (“PCS”) which are considered distinct performance obligations as the customer’s use of the existing software is not dependent upon future upgrades. Kodak recognizes software revenue at the time that the customer obtains control over the software which generally occurs upon installation while revenue allocated to the PCS is recognized over the service period.

 

In service arrangements such as consulting or business process services (Kodak Technology Solutions business) where final acceptance by the customer is required, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met and Kodak has a legal right to payment.

 

Kodak’s licensing revenue is comprised of software licenses as discussed above, licenses to use functional intellectual property (patents and technical know-how) and licenses to use symbolic intellectual property (brand names and trademarks) (Consumer and Film businesses).  The timing and the amount of revenue recognized from the licensing of intellectual property depends upon a variety of factors, including the nature of the performance obligations (functional vs. symbolic licenses) specific terms of each agreement, and the payment terms. Aside from software licenses discussed above, Kodak’s functional licenses generally provide the right to use functional intellectual property; therefore, non-sales/usage-based revenue is recognized when the customer has the right to use the intellectual property while sales and usage-based royalties are recognized in the period the related sales and usage occurs.  Revenue for symbolic licenses such as brand licenses are recognized over time.

 

[14]


Deferred revenue is recorded when cash payments are received in advance of satisfying performance obligations such as deposits required in advance on equipment orders, prepaid service contracts or prepaid royalties on intellectual property arrangements. Interest expense is imputed for payments received greater than one year in advance of performance.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 60 days. Kodak applies the practical expedient with respect to implied financial components and only imputes interest for payment terms greater than one year.

 

Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues. Certain customers may receive cash-based incentives or credits, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Kodak estimates these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers.

 

Kodak expenses sales commissions when incurred if the amortization period would be one year or less. These costs are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses. Kodak accrues the estimated cost of post-sale obligations, including basic product warranties, at the time of revenue recognition. Shipping and handling costs are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales.

 

Kodak does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less or for which revenue is recognized at the amount to which Kodak has the right to invoice for services performed. Performance obligations with an original expected length of greater than one year generally consist of deferred service contracts, operating leases and licensing arrangements. As of March 31, 2018, there was approximately $75 million of remaining performance obligations. Approximately 30% of the remaining performance obligations are expected to be recognized in 2018, and 2019, 20% in 2020 and 20% thereafter.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed trade receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  The contract assets are transferred to trade receivables when the rights to consideration become unconditional.  The amounts recorded for contract assets at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $2 million and $3 million, respectively, and are reported in Other current assets and Trade receivables, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  The contract liabilities primarily relate to prepaid service contracts, upfront payments for certain equipment purchases or prepaid royalties on intellectual property arrangements.  The amounts recorded for contract liabilities at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $46 million and $37 million, respectively, of which $38 million and $37 million, respectively, are reported in Other current liabilities and $8 million and $0 million, respectively, are reported in Other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

 

Revenue recognized for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the year was $25 million, and primarily represented revenue from prepaid service contracts and equipment revenue recognition.  Contract liabilities as of March 31, 2018 include $23 million of cash payments received during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018.

NOTE 12: INCOME TAXES

On December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law tax legislation known as the 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation and included a reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, the implementation of a territorial tax system and the imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

Effective January 1, 2018, the 2017 Tax Act also includes a provision to tax global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) of foreign subsidiaries, a base erosion anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”) measure that taxes certain payments between a U.S. corporation and its subsidiaries and a foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”) deduction which would reduce U.S. taxable income.  Kodak provided the applicable provisional tax impacts in its consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 which were fully offset by Kodak’s U.S. valuation allowance resulting in no net tax provision for the quarter.

Given the complexity of the GILTI provisions, Kodak is still evaluating the effects and has not yet determined its accounting policy.  For the quarter ended March 31, 2018, Kodak is still evaluating the GILTI provisions and the analysis of future taxable income that is subject to GILTI.  Therefore, Kodak has included GILTI related to current year operations only in its estimated annual effective tax rate and has not provided additional GILTI on deferred items.  The impact was fully offset by Kodak’s U.S. valuation allowance, resulting in no net tax provision for the quarter.

Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (“SAB 118”) addresses the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act. Kodak has recognized the provisional tax impacts to the extent needed and included these amounts in its consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The ultimate impact may materially differ from these provisional amounts as a result of additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions Kodak has made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, actions Kodak may take as a result of the 2017 Tax Act and other factors. The accounting is expected to be complete when the 2017 U.S. corporate income tax return is filed in 2018.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the difference between Kodak’s recorded provision and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% is primarily attributable to: (1) the impact related to existing valuation allowances associated with changes in net deferred tax assets from current earnings and losses, (2) the results from operations in jurisdictions outside the U.S. and (3) a provision associated with foreign withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.  

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the difference between Kodak’s recorded provision and the provision that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to: (1) the impact related to existing valuation allowances associated with changes in net deferred tax assets from current earnings and losses, (2) a provision associated with foreign withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and (3) changes in audit reserves.  

 

 

 

NOTE 13: RESTRUCTURING LIABILITIES

 

Charges for restructuring activities are recorded in the period in which Kodak commits to a formalized restructuring plan, or executes the specific actions contemplated by the plan, and all criteria for liability recognition under the applicable accounting guidance have been met.  Restructuring actions taken in the first three months of 2018 were initiated to reduce Kodak’s cost structure as part of its commitment to drive sustainable profitability and included various targeted reductions in manufacturing, service, sales, and other administrative functions.

Restructuring Reserve Activity

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 the $2 million of charges were reported as Restructuring costs and other.  

The severance costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to the elimination of approximately 35 positions including approximately 10 manufacturing/service positions and 25 administrative and sales positions. These positions were located primarily outside of the United States and Canada.

 

As a result of these initiatives, the majority of the severance will be paid during periods through the end of 2018.

NOTE 15: REDEEMABLE, CONVERTIBLE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

 

On November 15, 2016, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of 5.50% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $200 million, or $100 per share. The Company has classified the Series A Preferred Stock as temporary equity in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  Kodak allocated $43 million of the net proceeds received to a derivative liability based on the aggregate fair value of the embedded conversion features on the date of issuance which reduced the net carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock (see Note 21, “Financial Instruments”).  The carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock at the time of issuance, $155 million ($200 million aggregate gross proceeds less $43 million allocated to the derivative liability and $2 million in transaction costs), is being accreted to the mandatory redemption amount using the effective interest method to Additional paid in capital in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as a deemed dividend from the date of issuance through the mandatory redemption date, November 15, 2021.  The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends payable quarterly in cash at a rate of 5.50% per annum.  All dividends owed on the Series A Preferred Stock have been declared and paid when due.  As of March 31, 2018, the Series A Preferred Stock has not been converted and none of the antidilution provisions have been triggered.  Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock not converted prior to the fifth anniversary of the initial issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock are required to be redeemed at $100 per share plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends.

 

NOTE 16: EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share computations are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include any dilutive effect of potential common shares.  In periods with a net loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders, diluted earnings per share are calculated using weighted-average basic shares for that period, as utilizing diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share.

 

A reconciliation of the amounts used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 follows: (in millions):

As a result of the net loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders for the three months ending March 31, 2018, Kodak calculated diluted earnings per share using weighted-average basic shares outstanding for those periods.  If Kodak reported earnings from continuing operations available to common shareholders for the three months ending March 31, 2018, the calculation of diluted earnings per share would have included the assumed conversion of 0.3 million of unvested restricted stock units.

 

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017 also excluded the impact of (1) the assumed conversion of 2.0 million shares of Series A convertible preferred shares, (2) the assumed conversion of net share settled warrants to purchase 1.8 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $14.93, (3) the assumed conversion of net share settled warrants to purchase 1.8 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $16.12 and (4) the assumed conversion of 5.0 million and 1.8 million, respectively, outstanding employee stock options because the effects would have been anti-dilutive.

 

 

NOTE 17: SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Kodak has 560 million shares of authorized stock, consisting of: (i) 500 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and (ii) 60 million shares of preferred stock, no par value, issuable in one or more series. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 42.6 million shares of common stock outstanding and 2.0 million shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding. Treasury stock consisted of approximately 0.6 million shares at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Segment Measure of Profit and Loss

Kodak’s segment measure of profit and loss is an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Operational EBITDA”).  As demonstrated in the above table, Operational EBITDA represents the (loss) earnings from continuing operations excluding the provision for income taxes; non-service cost components of pension and OPEB income; depreciation and amortization expense; restructuring costs; stock-based compensation expense; consulting and other costs; idle costs; other operating expense, net (unless otherwise indicated); goodwill impairment losses; interest expense; and other (charges) income, net.

Kodak’s segments are measured using Operational EBITDA both before and after allocation of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”).  The segment earnings measure reported is after allocation of corporate SG&A as this most closely aligns with U.S. GAAP.  Research and Development activities not directly related to the other segments are reported within the Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology segment.

[22]


Change in Segment Measure of Profitability

 

During the first quarter of 2018 the segment measure was changed to exclude amortization of prior service costs and credits which, due to the adoption of ASU 2017-17, are no longer reported in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period.  Refer to the Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements section of Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

 

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Kodak, as a result of its global operating and financing activities, is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial position.  Kodak manages such exposures, in part, with derivative financial instruments.  Foreign currency forward contracts are used to mitigate currency risk related to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.  Kodak’s exposure to changes in interest rates results from its investing and borrowing activities used to meet its liquidity needs.  Kodak does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

Kodak’s foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as hedges and are marked to market through net (loss) earnings at the same time that the exposed assets and liabilities are remeasured through net (loss) earnings (both in Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations).  The notional amount of such contracts open at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was approximately $647 million and $534 million, respectively.  The majority of the contracts of this type held by Kodak as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are denominated in Swiss francs and euros.   

The net effect of foreign currency forward contracts in the results of operations is shown in the following table:

Kodak had no derivatives designated as hedging instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

In the event of a default under the Company’s Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement, or a default under any derivative contract or similar obligation of Kodak, subject to certain minimum thresholds, the derivative counterparties would have the right, although not the obligation, to require immediate settlement of some or all open derivative contracts at their then-current fair value, but with liability positions netted against asset positions with the same counterparty.

As discussed in Note 15, “Redeemable, Convertible, Series A Preferred Stock”, the Company concluded that the Series A Preferred Stock is considered more akin to a debt-type instrument and that the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded conversion features, except where the conversion price was increased to the liquidation preference, were not considered clearly and closely related to the Series A Preferred Stock.  The embedded conversion features not considered clearly and closely related are the conversion at the option of the holder (“Optional Conversion”); the ability of Kodak to automatically convert the stock after the second anniversary of issuance (“Mandatory Conversion”) and the conversion in the event of a fundamental change or reorganization (“Fundamental Change or Reorganization Conversion”). Accordingly, these embedded conversion features were bifurcated from the Series A Preferred Stock and separately accounted for on a combined basis as a single derivative asset or liability.  The derivative is in a liability position at March 31, 2018 and in an asset position at December 31, 2017, and is reported in Other long-term liabilities and Other long-term assets, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  The derivative is being accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value being reported in Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Fair values of Kodak’s foreign currency forward contracts are determined using observable inputs (Level 2 fair value measurements) and are based on the present value of expected future cash flows (an income approach valuation technique) considering the risks involved and using discount rates appropriate for the duration of the contracts.  The gross fair value of foreign currency forward contracts in an asset position are reported in Receivables, net and the gross fair value of foreign currency forward contracts in a liability position are reported in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  The gross fair value of forward contracts in an asset position as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $10 million and $7 million, respectively.  The gross fair value of forward contracts in a liability position as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was not material.

 

Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized based on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.  There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

[23]


The fair value of the embedded conversion features derivative is calculated using unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair measurements).  The value of the Optional Conversion and Mandatory Conversion is calculated using a binomial lattice model.  The following table presents the key inputs in the determination of the fair value of the Optional Conversion and Mandatory Conversion at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

The Fundamental Change and Reorganization Conversion value at issuance was calculated as the difference between the total value of the Series A Preferred Stock and the sum of the net present value of the cash flows if the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemed on its fifth anniversary and the values of the other embedded derivatives.  The Fundamental Change and Reorganization Conversion value reduces the value of the embedded conversion features derivative liability.  Unless events occur which would alter the likelihood of a fundamental change or reorganization event, the value of the Fundamental Change and Reorganization Conversion reflects the value as of the issuance date, amortized for the passage of time.  The Fundamental Change and Reorganization Conversion value exceeded the value of the Optional Conversion and Mandatory Conversion values at December 31, 2017 resulting in the derivative being reported as an asset.

The fair values of long-term debt (Level 2 fair value measurements) are determined by reference to quoted market prices of similar instruments, if available, or by pricing models based on the value of related cash flows discounted at current market interest rates.  The fair values of long-term borrowings were $377 million and $348 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

 

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximate their fair values.

OVERVIEW

Kodak is a global commercial printing and imaging company with proprietary technologies in materials science, digital imaging science and software, and deposition processes (methods whereby one or more layers of various materials in gaseous, liquid or small particle form are deposited on a substrate in precise quantities and positions).  Kodak leverages its core technology products and services to develop solutions for the product goods packaging and graphic communications markets, and is developing products for the functional printing markets.  Kodak also offers brand licensing and intellectual property opportunities, provides products and services for motion pictures and other commercial films, and sells ink to its existing installed consumer inkjet printer base.

Revenue was flat compared to the prior year quarter, including the favorable impact of currency ($20 million) in the current year quarter.  

[25]


Kodak’s strategy is to:

 

Use Kodak’s divisional structure to drive accountability, transparency and speed of decision making;

 

Focus product investment in the following growth engines - Sonora, Ultrastream, FLEXCEL NX Systems and Plates, Advanced Materials and 3D Printing and Software and Services;

 

Maintain market leadership position and cash flows associated with Print Systems;

 

Manage the expected decline in and maximize cash generated by mature businesses;

 

Continue to streamline processes to drive cost reductions and improve operating leverage; and

 

Continue to explore opportunities to monetize the asset base.

A discussion of opportunities and challenges related to Kodak’s strategy follows:

 

Print Systems’ revenues accounted for approximately 61% of Kodak’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Print Systems’ revenues improved $3 million (1%) compared with the prior year quarter, including the favorable impact of currency ($14 million).  Segment earnings declined $8 million (67%) compared with the prior year quarter, driven by increased materials cost (aluminum).  While digital plate offerings are experiencing market driven volume and pricing pressure, innovations in Kodak product lines which command premium prices, such as SONORA Process Free Plates, are expected to offset some of the long-term erosion in the market and manufacturing efficiencies are expected to mitigate the impact on earnings from revenue declines.  

 

 

In Enterprise Inkjet Systems, the legacy Versamark business is expected to continue to decline as a percentage of the segment’s total revenue as the Prosper business continues to grow.  The Prosper Inkjet Systems business is expected to continue to build profitability.  Investment in the next generation technology, Ultrastream, is focused on the ability to place Ultrastream writing systems in original equipment manufacturers and hybrid applications.  Enterprise Inkjet Systems’ revenue decreased $6 million (16%), driven by declines in Versamark, but the segment earnings were flat compared with the prior year quarter through cost control.

 

 

Within the Flexographic Packaging segment, growth in the installed base of FLEXCEL NX System computer-to-plate (CtP) imaging and related equipment is expected to drive continued growth of FLEXCEL NX printing consumables.  The Other Packaging Business includes packaging printing products and services that are in mature stages in their product life cycles.  Flexographic Packaging revenue and segment earnings increased $4 million (12%) and $1 million (17%), respectively, compared with the prior year first three months.

 

 

The Software and Solutions segment is comprised of Unified Workflow Solutions and Kodak Technology Solutions which includes enterprise services and solutions.  Unified Workflow Solutions is an established product line, whereas Kodak Technology Solutions includes document management and managed print services businesses and Kodakit.  The contributions these business initiatives make to earnings are expected to grow with a modest amount of additional investment.  Software and Solutions’ revenue declined $1 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting Unified Workflow Solutions volume declines.  Sales in Kodak Technology Solutions are project-based and can vary from year to year depending on the nature and number of projects in existence that year.

 

 

Consumer and Film’s revenue declined $1 million (2%) compared with the prior year first three months.  The segment loss increased $2 million compared with the prior year quarter, driven by the declining installed base of consumer inkjet printers. Kodak plans to continue to promote the use of film to utilize as much film manufacturing capacity as possible.

 

Film and related component manufacturing operations and Kodak Research Laboratories utilize capacity at Eastman Business Park (“EBP”), which helps cost absorption for both Kodak operations and tenants at EBP.

 

Kodak plans to capitalize on its intellectual property through new business or licensing opportunities in 3D printing materials, smart material applications, and printed electronics markets.

 

Kodak plans to continue to pursue monetization of its asset base, selling and licensing intellectual property, selling and leasing excess capacity in its properties, and pursuing rights to an earn-out from a previous divestiture.

CURRENT KODAK OPERATING MODEL AND REPORTING STRUCTURE

 

Kodak has seven reportable segments: Print Systems, Enterprise Inkjet Systems, Flexographic Packaging, Software and Solutions, Consumer and Film, Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology and Eastman Business Park.

Print Systems

The Print Systems segment is comprised of Prepress Solutions, which includes Kodak’s digital offset plate offerings and computer-to-plate imaging solutions, and Electrophotographic Printing Solutions, which offers high-quality digital printing solutions using electrically charged toner based technology.  The Print Systems segment provides digital and traditional product and service offerings to a variety of commercial industries, including commercial print, direct mail, book publishing, newspapers and magazines and packaging.

[26]


Prepress Solutions capitalizes on a contract-based, stable and recurring cash flow-generative business model. The average duration of customer contracts is two years. These contracts offer stability and generate recurring revenue. The core of the business is the manufacturing of aluminum digital printing plates of varying sizes. These plates can be as small as 23cm x 27cm and as large as 126cm x 287cm.  Unexposed plates are sold to commercial printing companies for use in the offset printing process. Kodak also manufactures equipment, known as Computer to Plate (“CTP”) equipment, which images the plates with a laser. The plates are used in the offset printing process, which transfers ink from the plate onto a rubber blanket and then onto the substrate to be printed. Due to the nature of the imaging and printing process, a new plate must be used for each printing run. As a result, there is a recurring revenue stream from the sale of these plates.

The Print Systems products and services are sold globally to customers through both a direct sales team as well as indirectly through dealers.

Prepress Solutions:

 

Digital offset plates, which includes KODAK SONORA Process Free Plates. KODAK SONORA Process Free Plates are prepared directly with a CTP thermal output device and do not require subsequent processing chemistry, processing equipment or chemical disposal. As a result, the plates deliver cost savings and efficiency for customers and promote environmental sustainability practices.

 

CTP output devices are used by customers to transfer images onto aluminum offset printing plates and provide consistent and high quality imaging for offset press applications. CTP products provide high resolution, consistency and stability in thermal imaging. Kodak also offers a lower cost CTP system using TH5 imaging technology, which provides a highly efficient and cost-effective imaging solution at a lower price point.

Electrophotographic Printing Solutions:

 

NEXPRESS printers produce high-quality, differentiated printing of short-run, personalized print applications, such as direct mail, books, marketing collateral and photo products.

 

DIGIMASTER printers use monochrome electrophotographic printing technology for transactional printing, short-run books, corporate documentation, manuals and direct mail.

The Print Systems segment also provides service and support related to these products.

Enterprise Inkjet Systems

 

The Enterprise Inkjet Systems segment contains the Prosper business and the Versamark business. The Enterprise Inkjet Systems products include production press systems, consumables (primarily ink), inkjet components and services.

 

Prosper:

 

 

The Prosper business product offerings, including the PROSPER Press systems and PROSPER Components, feature ultrafast inkjet droplet generation. This includes the PROSPER 6000 Press, which delivers a continuous flow of ink that enables constant and consistent operation, with uniform ink droplet size and accurate placement, even at very high print speeds. Applications of the PROSPER Press include publishing, commercial print, direct mail and packaging.  PROSPER System Components are integrated into original equipment manufacturer partner products and systems. Sales of equipment that incorporate the PROSPER Writing Systems result in recurring revenue from sales of ink and other consumables and equipment service. The level of recurring revenue depends on the application for which the equipment is used, which drives the total number of pages printed and, therefore, the amount of ink usage.   

 

 

The focus of the Prosper business is on developing the next generation platform, Ultrastream, with solutions that place writing systems in original equipment manufacturers as well as direct sale press products that widens its reach into applications for packaging and décor and expands the substrate range to include plastics. Product development is currently in the stage of shipping evaluation kits to potential partners with commercialization expected in 2019.

 

 

The Prosper business includes Kodak Print Services. Kodak Print Services prints the Jersey Evening Post as well as the majority of U.K. national newspapers for distribution in both Jersey and Guernsey islands. The business is used to demonstrate the value of the Kodak Prosper presses to customers around the world.

 

Versamark:

 

 

The KODAK VERSAMARK Products are the predecessor products to the PROSPER business. Kodak has ceased manufacturing VERSAMARK Press Systems.  Users of KODAK VERSAMARK Products continue to purchase ink and other consumables as well as service from Kodak.  Applications of the VERSAMARK products include publishing, transactional, commercial print and direct mail.

[27]


Flexographic Packaging

The Flexographic Packaging segment consists of flexographic imaging equipment, printing plates, consumables and related services, which enable graphic customization of a wide variety of packaging materials.

FLEXCEL NX:

 

The FLEXCEL NX System, a fully-integrated digital flexographic plate imaging solution, enables prepress service providers and printers to create printing plates that provide high quality flexographic printing and enhance the efficiency of customers’ printing processes.  

 

Other Packaging Business:

 

 

The FLEXCEL SR Plates portfolio comprises a full range of analog flexographic plates designed for trade shops and packaging printers that have not yet transitioned to digital technology. Kodak also manufactures and sells DITR Film, a no-process alternative to conventional graphic arts film and a wide range of analog and digital letterpress plates. Also included under this category are equipment service and the legacy APPROVAL proofing business.

Software and Solutions

The Software and Solutions segment is comprised of Unified Workflow Solutions and Kodak Technology Solutions, which includes enterprise services and solutions.  Unified Workflow Solutions is an established product line whereas Kodak Technology Solutions includes document management and managed print services businesses and Kodakit.

Unified Workflow Solutions:

 

Unified Workflow Solutions offers a leading suite of solutions for print production workflow, including the PRINERGY workflow production software, by providing customer value through automation, web integration and integration with other Kodak systems and third-party offerings. Production workflow software is used by customers to manage digital and conventional print content from file creation to output.  Production workflow software manages content and color, reduces manual errors and helps customers manage the collaborative creative process. Kodak believes it is a leader in production workflow solutions for the commercial print and packaging industries with over 15,000 systems installed in some of the largest printing and packaging establishments around the world.  The Unified Workflow Solutions business includes digital front-end controllers which manage the delivery of personalized content to digital presses while controlling color and print consistency.

Kodak Technology Solutions assists organizations with challenges and opportunities created by the worldwide digital transformation. It provides print and managed media services that assist customers with solutions for their printing requirements and document management services, including expertise in the capture, archiving, retrieval and delivery of documents. Kodak Technology Solutions serves enterprise customers primarily in the government and financial services sectors.

 

Kodakit is a platform that connects businesses with professional photographers to cater to their photography needs. Customers include global hotels and online travel agencies, real estate companies, marketplaces, advertising agencies and global brands.

[28]


Consumer and Film

The Consumer and Film segment is comprised of three lines of business:  Consumer Products, Industrial Film and Chemicals, and Motion Picture.

Consumer Products:

 

Includes licensing of the Kodak brand to third parties.  Kodak currently licenses its brand for use with a range of products including batteries, digital and instant print cameras and camera accessories, printers and LED lighting.  Kodak intends to continue efforts to grow its portfolio of brand licenses to generate both ongoing royalty streams and upfront payments.

 

Consumer Inkjet Solutions, which involves the sale of ink to an existing installed base of consumer inkjet printers.

 

Kodak developed consumer products, including the Super 8 camera.

Industrial Film and Chemicals:

 

Offers industrial film, including films used by the electronics industry to produce printed circuit boards, as well as professional and consumer still photographic film.

 

Includes related component businesses: Polyester Film; Solvent Recovery; and Specialty Chemicals, Inks and Dispersions.

Motion Picture:

 

Includes the motion picture film business serving the entertainment industry. Motion picture products are sold directly to studios, external laboratories and independent filmmakers.

 

Kodak motion picture film processing laboratories offering onsite processing services at strategic locations in the U.S. and Europe.

Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology

The Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology segment contains the Kodak Research Laboratories and associated new business opportunities and intellectual property licensing not directly related to other business divisions.  Kodak conducts research and files patent applications with fundamental inventions from the Kodak Research Laboratories.  Additionally, Kodak continues to file new patent applications in areas aligned with its core businesses.  Via these core business patent applications along with the research inventions, Kodak maintains a large worldwide portfolio of pending applications and issued patents.  Because product solutions in Advanced Materials and 3D Printing are in the process of being commercialized or are new business opportunities, a higher-level of investment has been required. Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology significantly reduced the level of this investment in the fourth quarter of 2017, concentrating on opportunities that are commercialized or nearly commercialized with identified markets and customers.  

Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology segment will also pursue partnership opportunities to commercialize materials and printed electronics technologies. These partnerships may include non-recurring engineering payments for Kodak efforts to further develop such technologies into products. Further, Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology segment provides a wide range of analytical services and non-recurring engineering services to external clients at market rates for such services.

Advanced Materials:

 

Advanced Materials is developing solutions for component smart materials based on the materials science inventions and innovations from the research laboratories.  There are multiple applications that Kodak contemplates addressing in this category, but the singular focus now is light blocking particles for the textile market.

3D Printing:

 

3D Printing concentrates on partnerships and/or licensing opportunities in printed electronics (micro 3D printing) and materials production for macro 3D printing companies. 

IP Licensing:

 

Kodak actively seeks opportunities to leverage its patents and associated technology in licensing and/or cross-licensing deals to support both revenue growth and its ongoing businesses. While revenues from these licensing activities tend to be unpredictable in nature, this segment carries the potential for revenue generation from intellectual property licensing and new materials businesses.

Eastman Business Park

The Eastman Business Park segment includes the operations of Eastman Business Park, a more than 1,200-acre technology center and industrial complex in Rochester, New York and the leasing activities related to that space. A large portion of this facility is used in Kodak’s own manufacturing and other operations, while the remaining portion is occupied by external tenants or available for rent to external tenants.

Segment Measure of Profit and Loss

Kodak’s segment measure of profit and loss is an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Operational EBITDA”).  Operational EBITDA represents the (loss) earnings from continuing operations excluding the provision for income taxes; non-service cost components of pension and OPEB income; depreciation and amortization expense; restructuring costs; stock-based compensation expense; consulting and other costs; idle costs; other operating expense, net (unless otherwise indicated); goodwill impairment losses; interest expense; and other (charges) income, net.

Kodak’s segments are measured using Operational EBITDA both before and after allocation of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”).  The segment earnings measure reported is after allocation of corporate SG&A as this most closely aligns with U.S. GAAP.  Research and development activities not directly related to the other segments are reported within the Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Technology segment.

[30]


Change in Segment Measure of Profitability

 

During the first quarter of 2018 the segment measure was changed to exclude amortization of prior service costs and credits, which, due to the adoption of ASU 2017-17 are no longer reported in the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period.  Refer to the Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements section of Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements.”

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 revenues were unchanged compared with the same period in 2017.  Volume and pricing declines within Print Systems ($11 million), and volume declines within Enterprise Inkjet Systems ($7 million), Consumer and Film ($3 million) and Software and Solutions ($2 million) were offset by favorable foreign currency of $20 million and volume improvements in Flexographic Packaging ($2 million).  See segment discussions for additional details.

Gross Profit

The decrease in gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of approximately $8 million compared with the same period in 2017 reflected volume declines within Enterprise Inkjet Systems ($4 million) and Consumer and Film ($2 million), higher aluminum costs and pricing declines within Print Systems ($8 million and $3 million, respectively), partially offset by reduced inventory write-offs due to restructuring ($6 million) and favorable foreign currency of $4 million.  See segment discussions for additional details.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Consolidated SG&A decreased $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily due to lower investment in segment selling and marketing activities ($3 million) driven by a lower investment in Enterprise Inkjet Systems.

Research and Development Costs

Consolidated R&D expenses decreased $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily due to the reduced level of investment in Advanced Materials and 3D Printing ($4 million).

Revenues

The increase in Print Systems revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of approximately $3 million reflected favorable foreign currency of $14 million.  The favorable impact of currency was partially offset by lower pricing and volume declines in Prepress Solutions (each $4 million) driven by competitive pressures in the industry and declines in plates, respectively.  Also offsetting the positive impact of foreign currency was lower volume in Electrophotographic Printing Solutions ($4 million) due to declines in consumables and service and lower equipment placements.  

Operational EBITDA

The decrease in Print Systems Operational EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of approximately $8 million reflected lower pricing in Prepress Solutions ($4 million) and higher aluminum costs ($8 million) and the unfavorable impact of currency ($2 million) partially offset by manufacturing cost improvements in Prepress plates ($2 million) and lower SG&A costs ($3 million).

Revenues

The decrease in Enterprise Inkjet Systems revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of approximately $6 million primarily reflected lower volume of VERSAMARK service and consumables ($4 million) due to declines in the installed base of VERSAMARK systems and lower volume of VERSAMARK system placements ($3 million) primarily due to the placement of used equipment in the prior year quarter.  The unfavorable impacts were partially offset by the favorable impact of currency ($2 million).  Volume improvements in PROSPER annuities ($1 million) were offset by lower volume of PROSPER components ($1 million).

Operational EBITDA

Enterprise Inkjet Systems Operational EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was unchanged compared to the prior year quarter primarily reflecting the lower volume of VERSAMARK service, consumables and equipment placements ($3 million) and PROSPER components ($1 million) offset by a lower level of investment in marketing, advertising and sales activities and R&D activities (each $2 million).

EASTMAN BUSINESS PARK SEGMENT

Eastman Business Park revenue and Operational EBITDA did not change compared to the prior year quarter.

A tenant that represented approximately thirty percent of segment revenues, for both the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 notified Kodak that it does not plan to renew its lease upon expiration in the third quarter of 2018.

[33]


RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND OTHER

 

Kodak recorded $2 million of charges for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which were reported as Restructuring costs and other.

 

Kodak made cash payments related to restructuring of approximately $4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

The restructuring actions implemented in the first three months of 2018 are expected to generate future annual cash savings of approximately $3 million. These savings are expected to reduce future annual SG&A expenses.  Kodak began realizing a portion of these savings in the first three months, and expects the majority of the annual savings to be in effect by the end of 2018 as actions are completed.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities improved $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the corresponding period in 2017 driven by lower inventory builds and less cash usage to satisfy accounts payable and other liabilities.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the corresponding period in 2017 primarily due to higher payments for capital additions and a lack of proceeds from sales of assets in the current year period.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared with the corresponding period in 2017 due to a lower dividend payment made to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock in the prior year as the dividend reflected the partial quarter the Series A Preferred Stock was outstanding.

Sources of Liquidity

 

Available liquidity includes cash balances and the unused portion of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement had $36 million of net availability as of March 31, 2018. The amount of available liquidity is subject to fluctuations and includes cash balances held by various entities worldwide.  At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 approximately $142 million and $172 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents were held within the U.S. and approximately $171 million and $172 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents were held outside the U.S.  Cash balances held outside the U.S. are generally required to support local country operations and may have high tax costs or other limitations that delay the ability to repatriate, and therefore may not be readily available for transfer to other jurisdictions. Kodak utilizes cash balances outside the U.S. to fund needs in the U.S. through the use of intercompany loans.  As of March 31, 2018, outstanding inter-company loans to the U.S. were $357 million which includes short-term intercompany loans of $59 million.  In China, where approximately $106 million of cash and cash equivalents was held as of March 31, 2018, there are limitations related to net asset balances that may impact the ability to make cash available to other jurisdictions in the world.  Under the terms of the Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement (the “Term Credit Agreement”) and the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company is permitted to invest up to $100 million in subsidiaries and joint ventures that are not party to these loan agreements.

 

[34]


As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Kodak had funded $0 million and $6 million, respectively, to the Eligible Cash account held with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement Administrative Agent which was classified as Restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, supporting the Excess Availability amount.  

 

Under the Amended Credit Agreement, if Excess Availability ($36 million at March 31, 2018) falls below 12.5% of lender commitments ($18.75 million at March 31, 2018), Kodak would be required to be in compliance with the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (the only financial covenant in the Amended Credit Agreement) and could become subject to cash dominion control.  In addition to Eligible Cash, the borrowing base is supported by Eligible Receivables, Eligible Inventory and Eligible Equipment.  To the extent the assets supporting the borrowing base decline and/or letters of credit issued under the Amended Credit Agreement increase, if the remaining assets included in the borrowing base are not sufficient to support the required Excess Availability amount, funding of Eligible Cash may be required.  Kodak intends to maintain Excess Availability above the minimum threshold.  Since Excess Availability was greater than 12.5% of lender commitments as of March 31, 2018, Kodak is not required to have a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.  As of March 31, 2018, Kodak is in compliance with all covenants under the Amended Credit Agreement.  If Kodak was required to have a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 (as defined in the Amended Credit agreement) Fixed Charges exceeded EBITDA by approximately $7 million.

 

Under the terms of the Term Credit Agreement, Kodak is required to maintain a Secured Leverage Ratio (the only financial covenant in the Term Credit Agreement) not to exceed 2.75 to 1.  The Secured Leverage Ratio is tested at the end of each quarter based on the prior four quarters and is generally determined by dividing secured debt, net of U.S. cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as calculated under the Term Credit Agreement.  As of March 31, 2018, Kodak’s EBITDA, as calculated under the Term Credit Agreement, exceeded the EBITDA necessary to satisfy the covenant ratio by approximately $25 million.

 

Under the terms of the Amended Credit and Term Credit Agreements (the “Credit Agreements”), the Company may designate Restricted Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries provided the aggregate sales of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries are less than 7.5% of the consolidated sales of Kodak and the aggregate assets of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries are less than 7.5% of Kodak’s consolidated assets.  Further, under the Amended Credit Agreement, on a pro forma basis at the time of designation and immediately after giving effect thereto, Excess Availability must be at least $30 million and the pro forma Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio must be no less than 1.0 to 1.0.  Upon designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, the Company will be required to provide to the Lenders reconciling statements to eliminate all financial information pertaining to Unrestricted Subsidiaries which is included in its annual and quarterly financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the Company designated five subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, Kodak PE Tech, LLC, Kodak LB Tech, LLC, Kodak Realty, Inc., Kodakit Singapore Pte. Limited and KP Services (Jersey) Ltd.  This action allowed the Company to better position assets which may be monetized in the future and address costs related to underutilized properties.  Collectively, these subsidiaries had sales of approximately $2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and assets of $23 million as of March 31, 2018, which represent 0% and 1%, respectively, of Kodak’s consolidated sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and consolidated assets as of March 31, 2018. The designation of these subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries increased the amount by which the Company’s EBITDA, as calculated under the Term Credit Agreement and the Amended Credit Agreement, exceeds the amount of EBITDA needed to satisfy the Net Secured Leverage Ratio covenant of 2.75 to 1.0 by $22 and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 by $16.  Each of the capitalized but undefined terms has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreements.

 

Kodak intends to conduct its operations in a manner that will result in continued compliance with the Secured Leverage Ratio covenant; however, compliance for future quarters may depend on Kodak undertaking one or more non-operational transactions, such as the repatriation of cash into the U.S., the management of operating cash outflows, the designation of additional subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, a monetization of assets, a debt refinancing, the raising of equity capital, or a similar transaction.  If Kodak is unable to remain in compliance and does not make alternate arrangements with its term lenders, an event of default would occur under Kodak’s credit agreements which, among other remedies, would entitle the lenders or their agents to declare the outstanding obligations under the Term Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

 

Kodak made net contributions (funded plans) or paid benefits (unfunded plans) totaling approximately $3 million to its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans in the first three months of 2018.  For the balance of 2018, the forecasted contribution (funded plans) and benefit payment (unfunded plans) requirements for its pension and postretirement plans are approximately $19 million.

 

Cash flow from investing activities included $10 million of capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Kodak expects approximately $30 million to $40 million of total capital expenditures for 2018.

 

Kodak is expanding its manufacturing facility in Weatherford, Oklahoma to provide additional production capacity for FLEXCEL NX Plates.  The additional capacity will supplement Kodak’s existing plate manufacturing facility in Yamanashi, Japan and is designed to meet increasing demand. The new production line is expected to be in full production by mid-2019 and will initially focus on supplying FLEXCEL NX Plates to customers in the United States, Canada and Latin America.  Kodak invested approximately $7 million in 2017 and approximately $3 million in the first three months of 2018.  The investment for the full year 2018 is expected to be approximately $7 million and the total investment for the project is expected to be approximately $15 million. 

 

[35]


Kodak believes that its liquidity position is adequate to fund its operating and investing needs for the next year and to provide the flexibility to respond as necessary to any changes in the business environment.  The loans made under the Term Credit Agreement become due on the earlier to occur of (i) the maturity date of September 3, 2019 or (ii) an acceleration of such loans following the occurrence of an event of default (as defined in the Term Credit Agreement).  Kodak intends to refinance the loans under the Term Credit Agreement before their maturity date.  

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Kodak, as a result of its global operating and financing activities, is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates, which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial position. In seeking to minimize the risks associated with such activities, Kodak may enter into derivative contracts. Kodak does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to hedge existing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, especially those of Kodak’s International Treasury Center, as well as forecasted foreign currency denominated intercompany sales. Kodak’s exposure to changes in interest rates results from its investing and borrowing activities used to meet its liquidity needs. Long-term debt is generally used to finance long-term investments, while short-term debt is used to meet working capital requirements.

Using a sensitivity analysis based on estimated fair value of open foreign currency forward contracts using available forward rates, if the U.S. dollar had been 10% stronger at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of open forward contracts would have decreased by $12 million and $21 million, respectively.  Such changes in fair value would be substantially offset by the revaluation or settlement of the underlying positions hedged.

Kodak is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities.  Kodak may utilize borrowings to fund its working capital and investment needs.  The majority of short-term and long-term borrowings are in variable rate instruments.  There is inherent roll-over risk for borrowings and marketable securities as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements.

Kodak’s Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement and Amended Credit Agreement are in variable-rate instruments, the Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement with an interest rate floor. At March 31, 2018 the three-month LIBOR rate was approximately 2.31%.  At December 31, 2017 the one-month LIBOR rate was approximately 1.56%.  When LIBOR rates rise above the 1% floor, interest expense increases approximately $4 million per annum for each 1% of LIBOR above the floor ($395 million face amount of debt times 1% at March 31, 2018).

Kodak’s financial instrument counterparties are high-quality investment or commercial banks with significant experience with such instruments. Kodak manages exposure to counterparty credit risk by requiring specific minimum credit standards and diversification of counterparties. Kodak has procedures to monitor the credit exposure amounts. The maximum credit exposure at March 31, 2018 was not significant to Kodak.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Kodak maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Kodak’s reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including Kodak’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Kodak’s management, with participation of Kodak’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Kodak’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Kodak’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Kodak’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in Kodak’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Kodak’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

[36]


Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Kodak’s Brazilian operations are involved in various litigation matters and have received or been the subject of numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes in various stages of litigation, as well as civil litigation and disputes associated with former employees and contract labor.  The tax matters, which comprise the majority of the litigation matters, are primarily related to federal and state value-added taxes and income taxes.  Kodak’s Brazilian operations are disputing these matters and intend to vigorously defend their position.  Kodak routinely assesses these matters as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability in its Brazilian operations and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable.  As of March 31, 2018, Kodak maintained accruals of approximately $11 million for claims aggregating approximately $207 million inclusive of interest and penalties where appropriate.  In connection with assessments and litigation in Brazil, local regulations may require Kodak to post security for a portion of the amounts in dispute.  Generally, any encumbrances of the Brazilian assets would be removed to the extent the matter is resolved in Kodak’s favor.

Kodak is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, remediations and proceedings, including, from time to time, commercial, customs, employment, environmental, tort and health and safety matters, which are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of business. Kodak is also subject, from time to time, to various assertions, claims, proceedings and requests for indemnification concerning intellectual property, including patent infringement suits involving technologies that are incorporated in a broad spectrum of Kodak’s products. These matters are in various stages of investigation and litigation, and are being vigorously defended. Based on information currently available, Kodak does not believe that it is probable that the outcomes in any of these matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and judgments could be rendered or settlements entered that could adversely affect Kodak’s operating results or cash flows in a particular period.  Kodak routinely assesses all of its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable.

Exhibit (10.1)

Eastman Kodak Company

Administrative Guide for the 2018 Performance Period

under the

Executive Compensation for Excellence and Leadership (EXCEL) Plan

ARTICLE 1.INTRODUCTION

1.1Background

Under Article 4 of the Executive Compensation for Excellence and Leadership Plan (the “Plan”), the Executive Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) has exclusive responsibility to control, operate, manage and administer the Plan in accordance with its terms.  

1.2Purpose

This Administrative Guide governs the Committee’s grant of Awards for the Plan’s 2018 Performance Period.  Unless otherwise noted in this Administrative Guide or determined by the Committee, the terms of the Plan shall apply to Awards granted under the Plan.

ARTICLE 2.DEFINITIONS

Any defined term used in this Administrative Guide, other than those specifically defined in this Administrative Guide, will have the same meaning as that given to it under the terms of the Plan.

2.1  Form 10-K Filing Date

The term “Form 10-K Filing Date” means the date that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission its Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2018.

2.2Performance Gates

The term “Performance Gate” means a performance condition which must be achieved  for performance against the Plan’s Performance Goal(s) to be considered.  Failure to achieve a Performance Gate prevents the funding of any Award Pool regardless of performance against the Performance Goal(s).

2.3 Performance Goal(s)

Definitions of the Performance Goal(s) are listed in Appendix A.          

2.4Performance Period

“Performance Period” means the 2018 Performance Period that coincides with Kodak’s 2018 fiscal year.

ARTICLE 3.ELIGIBILITY

Only Executives who are Officers under Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be Participants in the Plan under this Administrative Guide for the 2018 Performance Period.

 


 

 

Awards will be calculated using the base salary and target EXCEL percentage as of December 31 of the Performance Period.  

Unless the Committee provides otherwise, an Executive who becomes a Participant due to a job change or promotion during the Performance Period will become a Participant effective on the date of his or her appointment to the new job and will be eligible for a pro-rata Award based on the number of days of participation in EXCEL during the Performance Period.  

The amount of any pro-rata Award under the Plan as referenced above will be calculated by multiplying the earned Award by a percentage, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period during which the executive is a Participant in EXCEL and the denominator of which is 365 days.

Designation of an executive as a Participant for the 2018 Performance Period will not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive payment of an Award for the 2018 Performance Period.  The determination as to whether such Participant becomes entitled to payment of an Award for the 2018 Performance Period will be decided solely in accordance with the terms of this Administrative Guide and the Plan.

Subject to applicable local laws, regulations and processes, to be eligible for and to receive an Award, all eligible Participants must have signed an Employee Agreement in a form acceptable to the Chief Human Resources Officer, Eastman Kodak Company.  Any Participant who fails to sign such an Employee Agreement on or prior to the Award Payment Date(s) will not receive an Award.

ARTICLE 4.AWARD DESCRIPTION

4.1Terms of Awards

Any Award under the Plan granted by the Committee pursuant to this Administrative Guide will be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations contained in this Administrative Guide as well as those contained in the Plan.

4.2Form of Awards

Any Awards payable for the 2018 Performance Period will be paid on the Award Payment Date(s) determined by the Company, in cash, Common Stock or other property, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.  To the extent an Award is paid in Common Stock, such Common Stock will be issued under the Eastman Kodak Company 2013 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (or any applicable successor plan thereto).

ARTICLE 5.AWARD DETERMINATION

5.1Calculation of Award Pool

Provided that the Performance Gate(s) have been achieved, the percentage derived from the Performance Goal(s) will be multiplied by the aggregate Target Award to determine the Award Pool for the 2018 Performance Period.

5.2 Performance Goal(s) and Performance Gate(s)

The Performance Goal(s) and Performance Gate(s) for the 2018 Performance Period are attached in Appendix A.  

Results between the dollar amounts for the Performance Goal(s) shown will be interpolated to derive a Performance Percentage for the Performance Period.  The Performance Goal(s) are subject to a maximum payout limit of 200% for any Participant.  

5.3Allocation of Award Pool to Participants

Subject to the Committee’s authority to exercise Negative Discretion with regard to the amount of the Award Pool allocated to any Participant for the 2018 Performance Period, each Participant will be allocated an Award no greater than the lesser of: (i) 10% of the Award Pool; or (ii) 500% of his or her annual base salary on December 31, 2017 (or if the Executive was not employed by the Company on such date, 500% of his or her base salary upon hire following December 31, 2017); or (iii) $5,000,000.

Solely for purposes of this Section 5.3, the “Award Pool” will be determined by using the definition of “Aggregate Target Award” as set forth in this Section 5.3.

For purposes of this Section 5.3, “Aggregate Target Award” means the sum of the Target Award amounts on April 3, 2018 for all Participants eligible to participate in the Plan on April 3, 2018.

5.4Certification

Following the completion of the Performance Period, the Committee shall meet to review and certify in writing whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goal(s) and Performance Gate(s) for the Performance Period have been achieved.  If the Committee certifies that the Performance Gate(s) and minimum Performance Goal(s) have been achieved, it shall also calculate and certify in writing the Applicable Performance Percentage.  By applying the Performance Formula, the Committee shall then determine and certify the total allocation that has been earned for the Performance Period.  The Committee may, through the use of discretion, increase or reduce the amount that would otherwise be certified by application of the Performance Formula, if, in its sole judgment, such increase or reduction is appropriate.

5.5Award Offset

If a Participant is entitled to the payment of a Supplemental Award pursuant to the Administrative Guide for Supplemental Awards for the 2018 Performance Period under the Plan, then the amount of the Award payable to the Participant for the 2018 Performance Period pursuant to this Administrative Guide shall be reduced, but not below zero, by the amount of the Supplemental Award payable to such Participant.

ARTICLE 6.PAYMENT OF AWARDS

6.1Continued Employment

Except as otherwise provided by this Article 6, to be eligible to be considered for an Award for the 2018 Performance Period, a Participant must be actively employed by the Company on the Form 10-K Filing Date.

6.2Termination During the Performance Period

In the event a Participant’s employment is terminated during the 2018 Performance Period, whether by the Company or the Participant, for any reason (including, but not limited to the Participant’s death or Disability) other than as part of a divestiture by the Company, the Participant will not be eligible to be considered for an Award for the 2018 Performance Period.  

If the termination during the 2018 Performance Period is part of a divestiture by the Company, the Participant will be eligible to be considered for a pro-rata Award paid by the Company based on the number of days of participation in the Plan during the Performance Period before the date of the divestiture only if the successor company has not agreed to accept liability for the Award.  The amount of any pro-rata Award will be calculated as described in Article 3 above.

6.3Termination After Performance Period and Prior to Form 10-K Filing Date

In the event that a Participant is terminated by the Company for Cause after the end of the Performance Period, but before the Form 10-K Filing Date, the Participant will not be eligible to be considered for an Award for the Performance Period.

In the event that a Participant is terminated by the Company after the end of the Performance Period and prior to the Form 10-K Filing Date for any reason other than Cause, the Participant will be eligible to be considered for an Award for the Performance Period, based on certification by the Committee as set forth in Section 5.4 and subsequent management discretion with respect to the Participant’s performance in the Performance Period.  If the termination is part of a divestiture by the Company, the Participant will be eligible to be considered for an Award paid by the Company only if the successor company has not agreed to accept liability for the Award.

In the event that a Participant voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company after the end of the Performance Period and prior to the Form 10-K Filing Date for any reason other than the death or Disability of the Participant, the Participant will not be eligible to be considered for an Award for the Performance Period.  

In the event of the death or Disability of a Participant after the end of the Performance Period and prior to the Form 10-K Filing Date, the Participant will be eligible to be considered for an Award for the Performance Period, based on certification by the Committee as set forth in Section 5.4 and subject to subsequent management discretion with respect to the Participant’s performance in the Performance Period.

6.4Forfeiture

If, at any time, a Participant breaches his or her Employee Agreement or performs any act or engages in any activity which the CEO, in the case of all Participants other than the CEO, or the
