Insights

Kodak announces planned retirement of longtime CTO with consulting transition.

Eastman Kodak is disclosing a leadership change as Terry Taber, Senior Vice President, Advanced Materials & Chemicals, Chief Technical Officer and Vice President, intends to retire effective January 2, 2026. The filing emphasizes his roughly 45-year tenure and his role in technological innovation and R&D, highlighting his importance to Kodak’s technical direction.

The company notes that Taber will support the transition of his duties and then continue as a consultant for $25,000 per quarter. This structure suggests an effort to maintain continuity in Advanced Materials & Chemicals and R&D while leadership responsibilities are handed off. It may help preserve institutional knowledge during the changeover.

The actual impact on Kodak’s operations and strategy will depend on how successfully responsibilities are transitioned and who ultimately assumes his roles. Subsequent disclosures in company filings may provide further detail on successor appointments and any adjustments in organizational structure.
