Kodak Reports Full-Year 2020 Financial Results
03/16/2021 - 04:15 PM
Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE: KODK) today reported financial results for the full year 2020, including consolidated revenues of $1 billion and an increase in cash in the second half of the year.
Full-year 2020 highlights include:
Consolidated revenues of $1 billion
A cash balance of $196 million at year-end
On March 1, 2021, the Company announced a series of financial transactions that provide access to new capital, address maturing obligations, and strengthen the Company's ability to invest in strategic growth opportunities in its core businesses. The additional liquidity provided by these financial transactions eliminates the substantial doubt about Kodak’s ability to continue as a going concern.
“Kodak successfully managed through 2020 despite the challenges of the pandemic,” said Jim Continenza, Kodak’s Executive Chairman and CEO. “We mitigated the impact of COVID with cost-saving initiatives, launched several innovative print-business products and generated cash in the third and fourth quarters. More recently, we announced a series of financial transactions which significantly strengthened our balance sheet and set the stage for growth through investments in our core businesses in print and advanced materials and chemicals, and new initiatives.”
For the year ended December 31, 2020, revenues declined by $213 million compared with the same period in 2019. Kodak ended the quarter with a cash balance of $196 million , down from the December 31, 2019 cash balance of $233 million . GAAP net loss was $541 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, which included a charge of $416 million to reflect the increased value of the derivative liability embedded in the convertible notes immediately prior to conversion during the third quarter 2020 and expense of $167 million related to the increase in deferred tax valuation allowances for locations outside the U.S. during the first quarter of 2020. Operational EBITDA was negative $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $13 million in 2019.
“Kodak increased its cash balance in the third and fourth quarters by $16 million and ended the year at $196 million in cash,” said David Bullwinkle, Kodak’s CFO. “During 2020 the Company improved its financial health by removing legacy liabilities and reducing costs, and the recently announced transactions put Kodak in a strong financial position and provide incremental liquidity to drive growth.”

APPENDICES
A. NON-GAAP MEASURES
In this full year 2020 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 loss 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; former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) separation agreement compensation; loss on early extinguishment of debt, other operating (income) expense, net; interest expense; and other 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 twelve months ended December 31, 2019, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.
The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP measure of Net (Loss) Earnings to Operational EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively:
