“Kodak’s strong second-quarter performance reflects the impact of changes we’ve made and our continued focus on our core competencies and our long-term plan,” said Jim Continenza, Kodak’s Executive Chairman and CEO. “Over the last two years we have concentrated on our strengths as an industrial manufacturer, established a customer-first model, fixed our balance sheet and raised capital. The result is improved performance in all our businesses and a solid foundation.”

For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, revenues were $291 million, an improvement of $78 million compared to the prior-year quarter. Kodak ended the second quarter with a cash balance of $395 million, an increase of $199 million from December 31, 2020.

Operational EBITDA for the quarter was $10 million compared to negative $7 million in the prior-year quarter.

“I am encouraged by our financial performance for the quarter, which included year-over-year improvements in revenues and Operational EBITDA across all of our divisions,” said David Bullwinkle, Kodak’s CFO. “During the second quarter we used $6 million in cash, an improvement of more than $20 million compared to the prior-year quarter, driven by increases in revenue and profit. We will continue to focus on the execution of our long-term plan.”

APPENDICES

A. NON-GAAP MEASURES

In this second quarter 2021 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; stock-based compensation expense; consulting and other costs; idle costs; other operating income, 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 three months ended June 30, 2020, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP measure of Net Income (Loss) to Operational EBITDA and Operational EBITDA on a constant currency basis for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Footnote Explanations:

1. As reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
2. Consulting and other costs are primarily professional services and internal costs associated with certain corporate strategic initiatives and investigations.
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 and the costs, net of any rental income received, of underutilized portions of certain properties.
4. $2 million of income from the transition services agreement related to the sale of the Flexographic Packaging Business was recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2020. No income has been recognized in 2021. The income was reported in Other operating income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Other operating income, net is typically excluded from the segment measure. However, the income from the transition services agreement was included in the segment measure.
5. The impact of foreign exchange is calculated by using average foreign exchange rates for the three months ended June 30, 2020, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
