Kodak Reports Second-Quarter 2022 Financial Results

ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 9, 2022--Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE: KODK) today reported financial results for the second quarter 2022, including consolidated revenues of $321 million and continued growth in key product KODAK SONORA Process Free Plates.

Second-quarter 2022 highlights include:

  • Consolidated revenues of $321 million, compared with $291 million for Q2 2021
  • GAAP net income of $20 million, compared with $16 million for Q2 2021
  • Operational EBITDA of $11 million, compared with $10 million for Q2 2021
  • A quarter-end cash balance of $289 million, compared with $362 million at the end of 2021

“Kodak delivered year-over-year growth in revenues and quarter-sequential growth in gross profit for the second quarter of 2022, despite ongoing inflationary and supply chain challenges,” said Jim Continenza, Kodak’s Executive Chairman and CEO. “We continue to invest in digital print technologies designed to help our customers mitigate cost and supply risks associated with traditional prepress. We have launched the KODAK PROSPER 7000 Turbo Press, the world’s fastest inkjet press, and the KODAK ASCEND Digital Press, the perfect solution for the growing retail/point of purchase and high-end packaging markets. We have also officially launched two products powered by our groundbreaking ULTRASTREAM inkjet technology: the KODAK PROSPER ULTRA 520 Press, which offers offset print quality in a smaller footprint, and the first flexible package printing system, the UTECO Sapphire EVO W Press. In addition, we continue to make significant investments in recently announced growth initiatives in our Advanced Materials & Chemicals business, expanding our pilot coating facility and taking a minority stake in Wildcat Discovery Technologies, Inc., a private technology company that uses proprietary methods to research and develop new battery materials and is developing a breakthrough EV ‘super cell’ battery technology. Looking forward, we’ll continue to focus on driving profitable revenue by concentrating on our core businesses and helping our customers build theirs.”


For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, revenues were $321 million, an improvement of $30 million compared to the same period in 2021. The Company had GAAP net income of $20 million for the quarter, compared to $16 million in the prior-year quarter. Operational EBITDA for the second quarter was $11 million, compared to $10 million in Q2 2021. Operational EBITDA was favorably impacted by the growth in revenue due to improved pricing and volume, partially offset by higher continued ongoing global cost increases.

On June 15, 2022, Kodak exercised its right to draw down in full an additional $50 million in aggregate principal pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and received net proceeds of $49 million. Kodak ended the second quarter with a cash balance of $289 million, a net decrease of $73 million from December 31, 2021. The decrease is primarily attributable to increases in working capital, the impact of higher costs and increased capital investment. In July 2022, Kodak invested $25 million of the proceeds received from the delayed draw term loans to acquire the minority stake in Wildcat.

“The use of cash in the second quarter primarily reflects higher inventory levels which strengthen our ability to serve our customers and support increased revenues. As planned, the Company also continues to invest in new product innovations and growth areas,” said David Bullwinkle, Kodak’s CFO. “Key metrics from the second quarter, such as increasing revenues and gross profit on both a year-over-year and quarter-sequential basis, reflect the successful ongoing execution of our long-term strategy.”

APPENDICES

A. NON-GAAP MEASURES

In this second quarter 2022 financial results news release, reference is made to the following non-GAAP financial measures:

  • Operational EBITDA; and
  • Revenues and Operational EBITDA on a constant currency basis.

Kodak believes that these non-GAAP measures represent important internal measures of performance. Accordingly, where they are provided, it is to give investors the same financial data management uses with the belief that this information will assist the investment community in properly assessing the underlying performance of Kodak, its financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

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

The change in revenues and Operational EBITDA on a constant currency basis, as presented in this financial results news release, is calculated by using average foreign exchange rates for the three months ended June 30, 2021, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP measure of Net Income to Operational EBITDA and Operational EBITDA on a constant currency basis for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively:
