ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
“Kodak: What’s Next Starts Now.”
Today, Antonio M. Perez, Kodak Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, announced the company’s emergence from Chapter 11 as a reorganized company, following completion of the final steps in the restructuring process.
“We have emerged as a technology company serving imaging for business markets – including packaging, functional printing, graphic communications and professional services,” said Perez. “We have been revitalized by our transformation and restructured to become a formidable competitor – leaner, with a strong capital structure, a healthy balance sheet, and the industry’s best technology.”
Kodak completed the final steps in its Chapter 11 restructuring, including the spin-off of its Personalized Imaging and Document Imaging businesses to Kodak Pension Plan, a longstanding pension plan of Kodak’s U.K. subsidiary. The company also successfully closed on its agreement for $695 million in term exit financing, paid off its DIP lenders and second lien noteholders in full and completed its rights offerings, receiving approximately $406 million of new equity investments from participating unsecured creditors.
“We are setting a trajectory for profitable growth,” Perez said. “We have the right technology at the right time as printing markets increasingly transition to digital. Our broad portfolio of offset, hybrid and digital solutions enables customers to make the transition at their chosen pace using our breakthrough technology solutions.
“We thank our employees for their extraordinary skills and commitment. We thank our suppliers for their dedication. We thank our customers and partners for their loyalty and for inspiring us to create disruptive technologies and breakthrough solutions.”
The company has filed notice of the effectiveness of its Plan of Reorganization with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Upon the effectiveness of the Plan, all previously issued and outstanding shares of Kodak common stock were cancelled, as were all other previously issued and outstanding equity interests. Kodak issued shares of a new class of common stock to participants in the rights offerings and will issue additional shares of this new class of common stock to unsecured creditors as provided in the Plan of Reorganization. Kodak expects to make initial distributions on account of general unsecured claims by the end of September.
Kodak will file a report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission including more details.

2012 - Kodak entered Chapter 11 reorganization and embarked on a series of changes that will focus the future company on commercial markets. The changes included phasing out the digital camera business, and selling assets of the KODAK Gallery (on-line photo services) and Cinesite (Kodak's subsidiary for motion picture effects).
The company also announced plans to sell its Document Imaging and Personalized Imaging businesses. The latter is composed of Retail Systems Solutions (including kiosks and in-store processing solutions), Event Imaging Solutions (including theme park imaging), and Paper & Output Systems (traditional photographic paper and still camera film products).
Toward year's end, the company announced agreements that would bring it approximately $525 million for sale of its digital imaging patents .
♦Ten new commercial technologies were introduced at the drupa trade show in May, including the KODAK PROSPER 6000XL Press, a commercial inkjet system capable of printing 1,000 feet per minute; the KODAK FLEXCEL Direct System, for producing in-the-round sleeves for flexographic package printing; and KODAK SONORA XP Process Free Plates that provide the quality, productivity and print capability of mainstream plates without processing equipment or chemistry.
♦ KODAK NEXPRESS Red Fluorescing Ink received the industry's prestigious 2012 Intertech Technology Award. The ink is virtually invisible when printed but shows up under ultraviolet light, and is used for fraud protection on printed documents and promotions.
♦ Kodak negotiated new contracts for motion picture film with four key motion picture studios: NBC-Universal, Paramount, Disney and Warner Brothers.
♦ As part of an effort to extend use of Kodak's commercial inkjet technology through partnerships, Timsons Printing Machinery developed the TIMSON T-Press. Powered by KODAK Stream Inkjet Technology, it's the fastest, widest digital inkjet press available for black-and-white book production.
Eastman Kodak Co. (EKDKQ) said its full-year loss widened in 2012 compared with a year earlier, logging heavy restructuring charges during a bid to reorganize.
A judge last week approved changes to the company's bankruptcy-financing plan, giving it more flexibility of time and money as it seeks to emerge from bankruptcy in mid-2013. Kodak filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in January 2012.
For the full year, the company reported a net loss of $1.38 billion, compared with a loss of $764 million in 2012. The latest year's results included $1.07 billion in reorganization and restructuring charges, compared with $118 million a year earlier. Revenue decreased 20% to $4.11 billion, while overhead costs fell by $226 million.
The company ended 2012 with a cash balance of $1.14 billion.
