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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Kodak is the primary beneficiary of a utilities variable interest entity, RED – Rochester, LLC (“RED”). Therefore, Kodak consolidates RED’s assets, liabilities and results of operations.  Consolidated assets and liabilities of RED are $75 million and $10 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2015 and $77 million and $11 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2014.  RED’s equity in those net assets as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is $26 million and $21 million, respectively.  RED’s results of operations are reflected in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification due to Kodak’s new organization structure as of January 1, 2015 and for a change in the segment measure of profitability.  Refer to Note 14, “Segment Information” for more information about these changes.  In addition to the changes in segment reporting under the new organization structure, tenant rental income for Eastman Business Park previously reported in Cost of Revenues is now reported in Sales.

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360).”  ASU 2014-08 defines a discontinued operation as a disposal of a component (or group of components) of an entity that was disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.  ASU 2014-08 expands the disclosures when an entity retains a significant continuing involvement with a discontinued operation as well as for disposals of individually material components that do not qualify as discontinued operations.  The amendments in the update are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 (January 1, 2015 for Kodak) to new disposals and new disposal groups classified as held for sale after the effective date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Kodak’s consolidated financial statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). ASU 2015-07 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 (January 1, 2016 for Kodak) with retrospective application to all periods presented. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance requires changes in presentation only and will not have an impact on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Imputation of Interest (Sub-Topic 835.30):  Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.  ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this ASU are effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 (January 1, 2016 for Kodak). Early adoption is permitted for financial statements not previously issued.  Kodak does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”. The amendments in ASU 2015-02 change the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 (January 1, 2016 for Kodak). Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. A reporting entity may apply the amendments in this ASU either retrospectively or use a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Kodak does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

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 July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09.  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 of the revised guidance recognized at the date of initial application.  Kodak is currently evaluating the adoption alternatives and impact of this ASU.

As a result of the change in segments that became effective as of January 1, 2015, Kodak’s goodwill reporting units changed. Refer to Note 14, “Segment Information” for additional information on the change to Kodak’s organizational structure.  The Print Systems segment has two goodwill reporting units: Prepress Solutions and Electrophotographic Printing Solutions. The Micro 3D Printing and Packaging segment has two goodwill reporting units: Packaging and Functional Printing.  The Software and Solutions segment has two goodwill reporting units: Kodak Technology Solutions and Unified Workflow Solutions.  The Consumer and Film segment has three goodwill reporting units: Consumer Inkjet Solutions, Entertainment Imaging and Commercial Films and Brand Licensing.  The Enterprise Inkjet Systems segment has two goodwill reporting units:  Commercial Inkjet Printing Solutions and Digital Front-End Controllers.  The Intellectual Property Solutions segment and the Eastman Business Park segment each have one goodwill reporting unit.

As of December 31, 2014, the goodwill balance of $96 million under the prior year segment reporting structure was comprised of $67 million for the Graphics, Entertainment and Commercial Films segment and $29 million for the Digital Printing and Enterprise segment. The goodwill in the Graphics, Entertainment and Commercial Films segment was reported in the Graphics and Intellectual Property and Brand Licensing reporting units.  The goodwill in the Digital Printing and Enterprise segment was reported in the Packaging and Functional Printing and Consumer Inkjet Systems reporting units.

Goodwill previously reported in the Graphics goodwill reporting unit was transferred to the Prepress Solutions goodwill reporting unit and the Unified Workflow Solutions goodwill reporting unit.  The goodwill previously reported in the Packaging and Functional Printing goodwill reporting unit was transferred to the Packaging goodwill reporting unit and the Functional Printing goodwill reporting unit. The goodwill previously reported in the Intellectual Property and Brand Licensing goodwill reporting unit was transferred to the Intellectual Property Solutions goodwill reporting unit and the Brand Licensing goodwill reporting unit. Goodwill was reassigned to affected reporting units using a relative fair value allocation.

Due to the change in Kodak’s reporting units and the delay in commercializing new technologies in the Functional Printing reporting unit, Kodak concluded that the carrying value of the Functional Printing reporting unit exceeded its implied fair value.  The fair value of the Functional Printing reporting unit was estimated using the discounted cash flow method in which the future cash flows, including a terminal value at the end of the projection period, were discounted to present value.  Kodak recorded a pre-tax impairment charge of $6 million in the first quarter of 2015, that is included in Other operating income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations representing the entire amount of goodwill for this reporting unit.
 
NOTE 5: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Environmental
 
The Company provided an indemnity as part of the 1994 sale of Sterling Corporation (now “STWB”), which covered a number of environmental sites including the Lower Passaic River Study Area (“LPRSA”) portion of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site. STWB, now owned by Bayer Corporation, is a potentially responsible party at the LPRSA site based on alleged releases from facilities formerly owned by subsidiaries of Sterling. On February 29, 2012, the Company notified STWB and Bayer that, under the voluntary petition for bankruptcy by the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries, it elected to discontinue funding and participation in remedial investigations of the LPRSA. STWB and its parent, Bayer, filed proofs of claim against the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries.  These claims have been discharged pursuant to the First Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.  Environmental matters at three sites owned by the Company and one site for which the Company was not the owner but was responsible for the remediation were not resolved by the discharge.  On March 17, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with STWB related to these four sites.  The agreement calls for the Company to retain ownership and environmental responsibility of one of the sites.  Ownership and environmental responsibility for one site and environmental responsibility for the unowned site transferred to STWB in the second quarter of 2015. Ownership of the remaining site is expected to pass to an unrelated party by 2018 at which point the Company’s environmental responsibility will pass to STWB.  If the ownership for the fourth site does not transfer to that unrelated party prior to January 1, 2020, then the Company and STWB will share approximately equally in the ongoing costs of the site.  As a result of this agreement, the Company reduced its environmental liabilities by approximately $5 million and recognized a gain in the first quarter of 2015 of the same amount.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
 
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $119 million issued under the Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), as well as bank guarantees and letters of credit of $5 million, surety bonds in the amount of $19 million, and restricted cash and deposits of $59 million, primarily to ensure the payment of possible casualty and workers’ compensation claims, environmental liabilities, legal contingencies, 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 June 30, 2015, 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 $57 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 June 30, 2015, Kodak has posted security composed of $7 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 $77 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, remediation and proceedings, including commercial, customs, employment, environmental, 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 6: GUARANTEES
 
EKC guarantees obligations to third parties for some of its consolidated subsidiaries. The maximum amount guaranteed is $49 million and the outstanding amount for those guarantees is $19 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.
 
Warranty Costs
 
Kodak has warranty obligations in connection with the sale of its products and equipment. The original warranty period is generally three months or less.  In limited cases it may be longer but never exceeding one year.  The costs incurred to provide for these warranty obligations are estimated and recorded as an accrued liability at the time of sale. Kodak estimates its warranty cost at the point of sale for a given product based on historical failure rates and related costs to repair.

Kodak also offers its customers extended warranty arrangements that are generally one year, but may range from three months to five years after the original warranty period. Kodak provides repair services and routine maintenance under these arrangements. Kodak has not separated the extended warranty revenues and costs from the routine maintenance service revenues and costs, as it is not practicable to do so. Therefore, these revenues and costs have been aggregated in the discussion that follows. The change in Kodak’s deferred revenue balance in relation to these extended warranty and maintenance arrangements from December 31, 2014 to June 30, 2015, which is reflected in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was as follows:

The  difference between the Company’s recorded provision and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 is primarily attributable to: (1) losses generated within the U.S. and certain jurisdictions outside the U.S. for which no benefit was recognized due to management’s conclusion that it was more likely than not that the tax benefits would not be realized and (2) a provision associated with foreign withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the difference between the Company’s recorded provision and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to losses generated within the U.S. and certain jurisdictions outside the U.S. for which no benefit was recognized due to management’s conclusion that it was more likely than not that the tax benefits would not be realized.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the difference between the Company’s recorded provision and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to: (1) losses generated within the U.S. for which no benefit was recognized, offset by income in certain jurisdictions outside the U.S. for which no provision was recognized due to management’s conclusion that it was more likely than not that the tax benefits would not be realized, (2) a benefit as a result of Kodak reaching a settlement with a taxing authority in a location outside the U.S. related to withholding taxes, and (3) a benefit associated with foreign withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.

NOTE 8: 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 half of 2015 were initiated to reduce Kodak’s cost structure as part of its commitment to drive sustainable profitability and included continued progress toward the Leeds plate manufacturing facility exit, as well as various targeted reductions in service, sales, research and development and other administrative functions.
 
Leeds Plate Manufacturing Facility Exit
 
On March 3, 2014, Kodak announced a plan to exit its prepress plate manufacturing facility located in Leeds, England.  This decision was pursuant to Kodak’s initiative to consolidate manufacturing operations globally, and is expected to result in a more efficient delivery of its products and solutions.  Kodak began the exit of the facility in the second quarter of 2014, and expects to phase out production at the site by late 2015 and to complete the exit of the facility by the second quarter of 2016.
 
As a result of the decision, Kodak currently expects to incur total charges of $20 to $30 million, including $8 to $10 million of charges related to separation benefits, $10 to $15 million of non-cash related charges for accelerated depreciation and asset write-offs and $2 to $5 million in other cash related charges associated with this action.
 
Kodak incurred severance charges of $0 million and $6 million and accelerated depreciation charges of $2 million and $5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, under this program.
 
Under this program, on a life-to-date basis as of June 30, 2015, Kodak has recorded severance charges of $9 million, long-lived asset impairment charges of $2 million, and accelerated depreciation charges of $7 million.

(1)  
The severance and exit costs reserves require the outlay of cash, while long-lived asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and inventory write-downs represent non-cash items.

(2)  
The $(6) million includes $(4) million of severance related charges for pension plan special termination benefits, which are reflected in Pension and other postretirement liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, and $(2) million of foreign currency translation adjustments.

(3)  
The $(1) million represents severance related charges for pension plan special termination benefits, which are reflected in Pension and other postretirement liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the $8 million of charges includes $2 million of charges for accelerated depreciation which were reported in Cost of revenues in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. The remaining $6 million was reported as Restructuring costs and other.
 
The severance costs for the three months ended June 30, 2015 related to the elimination of approximately 75 positions, including approximately 25 manufacturing/ service positions and 50 administrative positions. The geographic composition of these positions includes approximately 25 in the United States and Canada and 50 throughout the rest of the world.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the $28 million of charges includes $5 million of charges for accelerated depreciation which were reported in Cost of revenues in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. The remaining $23 million was reported as Restructuring costs and other.
 
The severance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2015 related to the elimination of approximately 400 positions, including approximately 200 manufacturing/ service positions, 50 research and development positions and 150 administrative positions. The geographic composition of these positions includes approximately 125 in the United States and Canada and 275 throughout the rest of the world.
 
As a result of these initiatives, the majority of the severance will be paid during periods through the end of 2015.  However, in some instances, the employees whose positions were eliminated can elect or are required to receive their payments over an extended period of time. In addition, certain exit costs, such as long-term lease payments, will be paid over periods throughout the remainder of 2015 and beyond.

NOTE 10: EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic earnings per share computations are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding were 41.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 41.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
 
As a result of the net loss from continuing operations presented for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, Kodak calculated diluted earnings per share using weighted-average basic shares outstanding for that period, as utilizing diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share. If Kodak had reported earnings from continuing operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the following potential shares of its common stock would have been dilutive in the computation of diluted earnings per share:
 
(in millions of shares)
 
Three Months Ended

   Total
    0.9       2.1       0.9       2.2  
                                 
 
The computation of diluted earnings per share would have excluded 0.2 million shares for the three month period ended June 30, 2015 and 0.1 million shares for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 and the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 associated with the assumed conversion of outstanding employee stock options because the effects would have been anti-dilutive.
 
NOTE 11: 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 both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 41.9 million shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. Treasury stock consisted of approximately 0.2 million shares at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Stock-Based Compensation
Kodak may settle a portion of its 2015 incentive compensation plans with a variable amount of common stock based on the stock price at the time of settlement.  The plans include minimum performance gates and annual performance metrics for 2015.  The amount of incentive compensation to be paid will depend on performance against the metrics. The fair value of the awards is determined based on a targeted dollar amount for the expected performance against the plans’ criteria as of the balance sheet date.  The actual number of shares to be issued will be determined at the end of the performance period based on actual results achieved by Kodak and the stock price on the date of issuance.  The shares will be issued under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, Kodak recorded approximately $3 million and $7 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense for these awards.

(3)  
Consists of third party costs such as security, maintenance, and utilities required to maintain land and buildings in certain locations not used in any Kodak operations.
 
Change in Segment Measure of Profit and Loss
 
During the first quarter of 2015, Kodak changed its segment measure of profit and loss to an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Operational EBITDA”).  The segment measure now excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, certain consulting costs, costs previously allocated to discontinued operations, the impact of fresh start adjustments and idle costs. Prior period segment results have been revised to reflect these changes.
 
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 Intellectual Property Solutions segment.

NOTE 15: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
Upon emergence from bankruptcy, as a part of a settlement agreement between Eastman Kodak Company, the KPP Trustees Limited (“KPP” or the “Trustee”), as trustee for the U.K. Pension Plan, and certain other Kodak entities, Kodak consummated the sale of certain assets of Kodak’s Personalized Imaging and Document Imaging businesses (together the “Business”) to KPP Holdco Limited (“KPP Holdco”), a wholly owned subsidiary of KPP, and certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of KPP Holdco (together with KPP Holdco, the “KPP Purchasing Parties”), for net cash consideration, in addition to the assumption by the KPP Purchasing Parties of certain liabilities of the Business, of $325 million. Up to $35 million in aggregate of the purchase price is subject to repayment to KPP if the Business does not achieve certain annual adjusted EBITDA targets over the four-year period ending December 31, 2018. Certain assets and liabilities of the Business in certain jurisdictions were not transferred at the initial closing, but have been transferred in a series of deferred closings, one of which has yet to close. Kodak has been and is operating the Business relating to the deferred closing jurisdiction, subject to certain covenants, until the applicable deferred closing occurs, and delivers to (or receives from) a KPP subsidiary at each deferred closing a true-up payment reflecting the actual economic benefit (or detriment) to the Business in the applicable deferred closing jurisdiction(s) from the time of the initial closing through the time of the applicable deferred closing. Up to the time of the deferred closing, the results of the operations of the Business are reported as Earnings from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the assets and liabilities of the Business are categorized as Assets held for sale or Liabilities held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, as appropriate.
 
On March 17, 2014 the KPP Purchasing Parties agreed to pay Kodak $20 million of incremental consideration ($13 million was paid in March of 2014 and the remainder was paid in March 2015) in lieu of working capital adjustments contemplated by the settlement agreement.
 
The following table summarizes the major classes of assets and liabilities related to the disposition of the Business which have been segregated and included in Assets held for sale and Liabilities held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position:

Fair Value
 
Fair values of marketable securities are determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 fair value measurements).  Fair values of Kodak’s 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.  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 or six months ended June 30, 2015.
 
Fair values of long-term borrowings are determined by reference to quoted market prices, if available, or by pricing models based on the value of related cash flows discounted at current market interest rates. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables (which are not shown in the table above) approximate their fair values.
 
Foreign Exchange
 
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity involved are included in Other charges, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Derivative Financial Instruments
 
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. Kodak manages such exposures, in part, with derivative financial instruments.
 
Kodak’s exposure to changes in interest rates results from its investing and borrowing activities used to meet its liquidity needs.
 
Foreign currency forward contracts are used to mitigate currency risk related to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. Kodak’s foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as hedges, and are marked to market through net loss at the same time that the exposed assets and liabilities are re-measured through net loss. The notional amount of such contracts open at June 30, 2015 was approximately $398 million. The majority of the contracts of this type held by Kodak are denominated in euros and Chinese renminbi.
 
Kodak had no derivatives designated as hedging instruments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.  The location and amounts of pre-tax gains and losses related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations are shown in the following table:

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 June 30, 2015 was not significant to Kodak.
 
In the event of a default under the Company’s Senior Secured First Lien Term Credit Agreement, Senior Secured Second Lien Term Credit Agreement, the ABL 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.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
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’s portfolio of products and services is designed to meet the needs of customers in different sectors of the commercial imaging and printing markets. The core of Kodak’s business, Print Systems, is a stable, contractual business which delivers recurring cash flows. Kodak entered this market 20 years ago and, with a solid market share position, is a leader in the business.  Kodak also operates three segments that are in the growing lifecycle stage, each of which contains innovative technologies that have gained traction with customers. Kodak believes these technologies have potential to contribute positively to its earnings in the near-term. Kodak also operates consumer inkjet and motion picture film businesses that contribute to earnings and cash flow but are not expected to be meaningful contributors to operations in the future.

Revenue declined $70 million (13%) and $131 million (13%) compared to the prior year quarter and the first six months, respectively, with more than half the decline (approximately $44 million or 63% in the quarter and $78 million or 60% in the first six months) due to the adverse impact of foreign currency.  Operating cost reductions more than offset the resulting impact of the revenue decline on gross profit, improving the loss from continuing operations before income taxes by $38 million (73%) and $48 million (43%) compared to the prior year quarter and year to date periods, respectively.

A discussion of some of Kodak’s opportunities and challenges follow:
·  
Print Systems’ digital plate products include traditional digital plates and KODAK SONORA Process Free Plates. SONORA process free plates allow Kodak customers to skip the plate processing step prior to mounting plates on a printing press. This improvement in the printing process saves time and costs for customers. Also, SONORA process free plates reduce the environmental impact of the printing process because they eliminate the use of chemicals (including solvents), water and power that is otherwise required to process a traditional plate. While traditional digital plate offerings are experiencing pricing pressure, innovations in Kodak product lines, such as SONORA Process Free Plates, which command premium prices and drive increases in unit volumes are expected to offset some of the long-term price erosion in the market.  Print Systems’ revenues declined $39 million and $73 million compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively, with approximately $32 million and $56 million declines in the second quarter and first six months, respectively, attributable to the adverse impact of foreign currency.

·  
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 scales up.   Kodak’s Prosper Inkjet Systems business is early in its lifecycle but is expected to build scale and profitability, placing equipment with direct customers as well as a growing base of original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) partners.  Revenues from the Kodak Prosper portfolio increased 23% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2015 versus the prior year periods.  Enterprise Inkjet Systems’ revenue declined $2 million and $11 million compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2014 with approximately a $4 million decline in the second quarter and $8 million, respectively, decline in the first six months attributable to the adverse impact of foreign currency.

·  
In Micro 3D Printing and Packaging, the earnings contribution from Packaging offsets the cost of developing the Micro 3D Printing business.  Within Micro 3D Printing, Kodak is developing solutions in two technologies – silver halide mesh and copper mesh.  Following the end of its partnership with Unipixel, Kodak is moving forward independently with development of copper mesh touch sensor technology.  Kodak is actively developing the market and sales opportunities for this technology.  Kodak expects that continued growth in Packaging, as well as the transition from investment to commercialization of product in Micro 3D Printing, will result in revenue and earnings growth in this segment.  Growth in Packaging revenue is driven by an increasing installed base of Flexcel NX Systems which drives growth in Flexcel NX plate volumes. Flexcel NX plate volume improved by 39% and 33% in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, versus the prior year periods.  Micro 3D Printing and Packaging revenue increased $1 million and $3 million compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively, despite an adverse impact of foreign currency of approximately $4 million and $7 million compared to the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively.

·  
The Software and Solutions segment is comprised of Kodak Technology Solutions, which includes Enterprise Services and Solutions, and Unified Workflow Solutions. Unified Workflow Solutions is an established product line, whereas Kodak Technology Solutions includes growing product lines that leverage existing technologies and intellectual property in new applications. These business initiatives generally do not require substantial additional investment, and Kodak expects that they will grow in contribution to earnings.
 
·  
The Consumer and Film segment’s revenues are expected to continue to decline primarily due to a continued decline in the existing installed base of Kodak’s consumer inkjet printers.  Consumer and Film’s revenue declined $21 million and $35 million compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively.

·  
SG&A and research and development (“R&D”) expenses declined a combined $33 million and $70 million compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively, as the result of a number of actions including headcount reductions, reduced overhead costs, savings from global benefit changes, facilities consolidations and renegotiations of vendor contracts.

CURRENT KODAK OPERATING MODEL AND REPORTING STRUCTURE
Effective January 1, 2015, Kodak implemented a new organizational structure to make the company faster-moving, more competitive and more entrepreneurial.  Financial information is reported for seven segments: Print Systems, Enterprise Inkjet Systems, Micro 3D Printing and Packaging, Software and Solutions, Consumer and Film, Intellectual Property Solutions and Eastman Business Park.

Change in Segment Measure of Profit and Loss
 
Kodak changed its segment measure of profit and loss to an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Operational EBITDA”) concurrent with the change in organizational structure.  The segment measure now excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, certain consulting costs, costs previously allocated to discontinued operations, the impact of fresh start adjustments and idle costs. Prior period segment results have been revised to reflect these changes.
 
Kodak’s segments are measured using Operational EBITDA both before and after allocation of corporate 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 Intellectual Property Solutions segment.

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.  While the businesses in this segment are experiencing pricing pressure, continued innovations in Kodak product lines that can command premium prices, as well as continued increases in unit volumes, offset some of the long term market price erosion.

The Print Systems segment capitalizes on a contract-based, stable and recurring cash flow-generative business model. The average duration of customer contracts is two to three 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. The Company 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. Kodak expects to benefit from current industry trends, including customers’ increasing focus on sustainability initiatives, which strengthens demand for  Kodak’s process-free solutions.

Print Systems product offerings include:
 
Prepress Solutions:
 
 
Digital offset plates, including 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 that 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.

 
23

 
 
Enterprise Inkjet Systems

The Enterprise Inkjet Systems segment contains commercial inkjet printing solutions and digital front-end controllers for use in the inkjet printing process. The Enterprise Inkjet Systems products include production press systems, consumables (primarily ink), inkjet components and services.

Enterprise Inkjet Systems product offerings, including the PROSPER Press systems and PROSPER Components, feature ultrafast inkjet droplet generation. Kodak is developing a higher resolution and improved functionality version of this droplet generation system. 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.  The business also includes a large base of customers who continue to use KODAK VERSAMARK Products, the predecessor products to the PROSPER Press. Users of KODAK VERSAMARK Products continue to purchase ink and other consumables as well as service from Kodak.

PROSPER System Components are integrated into original equipment manufacturer partner products and systems. Sales of equipment that incorporates 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.

Digital front-end controllers manage the delivery of personalized content to digital presses while controlling color and print consistency.

Micro 3D Printing and Packaging

The Micro 3D Printing and Packaging segment includes Micro 3D Printing and Packaging.   Micro 3D Printing and Packaging includes flexographic printing equipment and plates and related consumables and services, as well as printed functional materials and components.  Micro 3D Printing is a new line of business that seeks to provide innovative printing techniques to customers for both premium marketing applications and manufacturing applications.  Because Micro 3D Printing is a new line of business, the Micro 3D Printing and Packaging segment currently requires a higher degree of investment and has a lower contribution to earnings than other segments.  Micro 3D Printing and Packaging products are sold directly by Kodak and indirectly through dealers.

·  
The Micro 3D Printing products offer many advantages over traditionally manufactured products, including lower cost points and reduced adverse environmental impact. Traditionally manufactured products require higher material costs, additional manufacturing steps and the mining of a rare metal. Within Micro 3D printing, Kodak is developing solutions in two touch screen technologies—Silver Halide Mesh and Copper Mesh.  Kodak expects modest levels of revenue in 2015, the bulk of which is expected from the Silver Halide technology. In addition, Silver Halide production lines are being added in a facility in Asia, which will be in production by the end of 2015.  Following the end of its partnership with Unipixel, Kodak is moving forward independently with development of Copper Mesh touch sensor technology.  Kodak is actively developing the market and sales opportunities for this technology.

·  
The Packaging business consists of flexographic printing equipment and related consumables and services, which enable graphic customization of a wide variety of packaging materials.  The flagship FLEXCEL NX brand provides imaging devices to deliver high productivity and consistency, as well as a full tonal range for flexographic printing.  The new FLEXCEL Direct System is a next generation platform that significantly reduces the steps needed to produce flexographic plates.

 

 
 
24

 

 
Software and Solutions

The Software and Solutions segment is comprised of Kodak Technology Solutions, which includes enterprise services and solutions, and Unified Workflow Solutions.  Unified Workflow Solutions is an established product line whereas Kodak Technology Solutions includes growing product lines that leverage existing Kodak technologies and IP in new applications.  These business initiatives generally do not require substantial additional investment and it is expected that they will grow in contribution to earnings.

The Software and Solutions segment 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. Kodak believes it is a leader in production workflow solutions for the commercial print and packaging industries with over 13,000 systems installed in some of the largest printing and packaging establishments around the world.  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.

The Software and Solutions segment also 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, including services to help brand owners combat counterfeiters and diverters; and document management services, including expertise in the capture, archiving, retrieval and delivery of documents. Software and Solutions serves enterprise customers in numerous sectors, including governments, pharmaceuticals and life sciences, consumer and luxury product goods and retail and financial services.

Consumer and Film

The Consumer and Film segment includes the motion picture film business serving the entertainment and advertising industries. Motion picture products are sold directly to studios, laboratories and independent filmmakers. The group also offers industrial films, including films used by the electronics industry to produce printed circuit boards. The Consumer and Film segment also includes related component businesses: Polyester Film; Solvent Recovery; and Specialty Chemicals, Inks and Dispersions.

Sales of motion picture film have continued to decline significantly. In view of this decline, Kodak has engaged in extensive discussions about film’s future with filmmakers, leading studios and others who recognize the artistic and archival qualities of film. The industry has shown support for a plan to extend film’s future, which enables Kodak to maintain production of film for the entertainment industry while it prepares products for new growth markets such as touch screen sensors that also utilize film technology.

The Consumer and Film segment also includes the sale of ink to the existing installed base of consumer inkjet printers and the licensing of Kodak brands to third parties for certain branded products that Kodak no longer produces. Kodak views the Consumer and Film segment as a declining/mature group of businesses.

With respect to Brand Licensing, Kodak currently licenses its brand for use with a range of consumer products including batteries, cameras and camera accessories and recordable media. Kodak intends to continue efforts to grow its portfolio of consumer product licenses in order to generate both ongoing royalty streams and upfront payments.

Intellectual Property Solutions

The Intellectual Property Solutions segment includes licensing and research and development activities related to Kodak’s patents and proprietary technology. Through this segment Kodak conducts research and files patent applications with fundamental invention claims. Additionally, Kodak continues to file significant numbers of new patent applications in areas aligned with its core businesses, as well as patents pertaining to Kodak Research Laboratories, and it maintains a large worldwide portfolio of pending applications and issued patents.  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 this segment tend to be unpredictable in nature, this segment still carries significant potential for material revenue generation.
 
Eastman Business Park

The Eastman Business Park segment includes the operations of the 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.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SOLUTIONS SEGMENT

Revenues in the Intellectual Property Solutions segment declined $9 million and $18 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2015 compared to the prior year periods as there was no revenue from non-recurring intellectual property licensing arrangements recognized in the current year periods.  R&D not directly related to other segments is included in the Intellectual Property Solutions segment.  Operating expenses declined by $2 million and $4 million in the second quarter and first six months from the prior year periods due to SG&A cost reductions and focusing R&D development activities on prioritized projects.

EASTMAN BUSINESS PARK SEGMENT
 
There were no significant changes in the results of operations of the Eastman Business Park segment in the second quarter or first six months of 2015 compared to the prior year periods.
 
RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND OTHER
 
Kodak recorded $8 million and $28 million of charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 respectively, of which $6 million and $23 million, respectively, were reported as Restructuring costs and other in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations and $2 million and $5 million, respectively, were reported as Cost of revenues.

Kodak made cash payments related to restructuring of approximately $11 million and $22 million during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

The restructuring actions implemented in the first half of 2015 are expected to generate future annual cash savings of approximately $37 million. These savings are expected to reduce future annual Cost of revenues, SG&A and R&D expenses by $16 million, $16 million, and $5 million, respectively. Kodak began realizing a portion of these savings in the first half, and expects the majority of the annual savings to be in effect by the end of 2015 as actions are completed.

Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities increased $82 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared with the corresponding period in 2014 primarily due to the use of restricted cash and the payment of incremental consideration from the KPP Purchasing Parties in 2014.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared with the corresponding period in the 2014 due to the $1 million net repayment of the VIE credit facility and $1 million of Treasury stock purchases in 2015.

Sources of Liquidity
 
Available liquidity includes cash balances and the unused portion of the Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement had $28 million of net availability as of June 30, 2015. The amount of available liquidity is subject to fluctuations and includes cash balances held by various entities worldwide. At  June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $272 million and $214 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents were held within the U.S. and approximately $304 million and $498 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents were held outside the U.S. Cash balances held outside of the U.S. are generally required to support local country operations, 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. Additionally, in China, where approximately $122 million of cash and cash equivalents was held as of June 30, 2015, 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, Senior Secured Second Lien Term Credit Agreement and the ABL 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.
 
Kodak made net contributions (funded plans) or paid benefits (unfunded plans) totaling approximately $5 million to its major U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans for the first half of 2015.  For the balance of 2015, the forecasted contribution (funded plans) and benefit payment (unfunded plans) requirements for its major U.S. and non-U.S. pension and postretirement plans are approximately $10 million.
 
Cash flow from investing activities included $14 million of capital expenditures for six months ended June 30, 2015. Kodak expects approximately $45 million of total capital expenditures for 2015.  Additionally, Kodak intends to utilize a variety of methods to finance customer equipment purchases in the future, including expansion of existing third party finance programs and internal financing through both leasing and installment loans.
 
Kodak believes that its liquidity position is adequate to fund its operating and investing needs and to provide the flexibility to respond to further changes in the business environment.

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 June 30, 2015, the fair value of open forward contracts would have decreased $8 million. If the U.S. dollar had been 10% weaker as of December 31, 2014, the fair value of open forward contracts would have decreased $2 million. 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 and, to a lesser extent, through investments in marketable securities. Kodak may utilize borrowings to fund its working capital and investment needs.  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, Senior Secured Second Lien Term Credit Agreement and ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at the LIBOR rate with a LIBOR floor. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the one-month LIBOR rate was approximately 0.19% and 0.17%, respectively.  If LIBOR rates were to rise above the 1% and 1.25% floors, interest expense would increase approximately $7 million for each 1% of LIBOR above the floor.
 
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 June 30, 2015 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.

Part II. Other Information
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
On January 19, 2012, the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief (the “Bankruptcy Filing”) under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Subsequent to the Company’s Bankruptcy Filing, between January 27, 2012 and March 22, 2012, several putative class action suits were filed in federal court in the Western District of New York against the committees of the Company’s Stock Ownership Plan (‘SOP’) and Savings and Investment Plan (“SIP”), and certain former and current executives of the Company. The suits have been consolidated into a single action brought under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), styled as In re Eastman Kodak ERISA Litigation. The allegations concern the decline in the Company’s stock price and its alleged impact on SOP and SIP. Plaintiffs seek the recovery of any losses to the applicable plans, a constructive trust, the appointment of an independent fiduciary, equitable relief, as applicable, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Defendants’ motion to dismiss the litigation was denied on December 17, 2014 and the case is proceeding. On behalf of the defendants in this case, the Company believes that the case is without merit and will vigorously defend the defendants on their behalf.

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 June 30, 2015, Kodak maintained accruals of approximately $14 million for claims aggregating approximately $208 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, 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 its 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.
