Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE: KODK) today reported financial results for the first quarter 2019, including a net loss of $18 million on revenues of $291 million and continued growth in key product areas.

Highlights include:

  • GAAP net loss of $18 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to a GAAP net loss of $25 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.
  • Revenues for Q1 2019 of $291 million compared to revenues for Q1 2018 of $318 million.
  • Operational EBITDA for the quarter of negative $6 million compared to Operational EBITDA of negative $9 million in the prior-year period.
  • Key product lines achieved strong year-over-year growth for the first quarter 2019:
    • Volume for KODAK SONORA Process Free Plates grew by 22 percent.
    • Annuity revenues for the KODAK PROSPER inkjet platform grew by 12 percent.
  • The company ended the quarter with a cash balance of $240 million.
  • The company completed the sale of its Flexographic Packaging Division to Montagu Private Equity LLP on April 8, 2019 and used the net proceeds to pay down $312 million of its term debt.

“Completing the sale of our Flexographic Packaging Division and using the net proceeds to significantly pay down our term debt was a major step toward strengthening our financial position,” said Jim Continenza, Kodak’s Executive Chairman. “Our focus has shifted to completing the refinancing of the remaining balance of our debt and realigning our business to better serve customers and achieve our goal of generating cash.”

For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, revenues decreased by approximately $27 million compared with the same period in 2018. Kodak ended the quarter with a cash balance of $240 million, down from the December 31, 2018 cash balance of $246 million.

“We significantly paid down our term debt and delivered continued strong performance in our key growth areas of SONORA Process Free Plates and in PROSPER inkjet annuities,” said David Bullwinkle, Kodak’s CFO. “We expect to secure new financing for our remaining term debt by the end of May, which will further strengthen our balance sheet.”

APPENDICES

A. NON-GAAP MEASURES

In this first-quarter 2019 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”). 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 March 31, 2018, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP measure of Net Loss to Operational EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively:

          (in millions) Q1 2019 Q1 2018

(4) The impact of foreign exchange represents the foreign exchange impact using average foreign exchange rates for the three months ended March 31, 2018, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
