Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Eastman Kodak Company
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Eastman Kodak Company (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated March 12, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosure to which it relates.
| Kodak Retirement Income Plan (KRIP) – Remeasurement and Termination | |
| Description of the Matter | As described in Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements, on January 21, 2025, the Board of Directors of Kodak approved the termination of KRIP, effective March 31, 2025. All pension obligations under KRIP had been fully settled and the excess pension assets of $1.023 billion as of November 26, 2025 (the “Reversion Date”) reverted to the Company. Kodak concluded that it was probable that the criteria for settlement accounting for KRIP would be met in 2025 as the projected cost of all settlements would exceed the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost for the year. As a result, Kodak applied settlement accounting and remeasured KRIP for each of the first three quarterly periods in 2025 and as of the Reversion Date. |
|---|
| Auditing the KRIP required more extensive audit effort due to the extent of transactions impacting the KRIP during the year, which included the remeasurement of the KRIP for each quarterly period in 2025 and as of the Reversion Date, and the impact on Kodak’s consolidated financial statements. | |
| How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of the Company's controls that address the risks of material misstatement relating to the KRIP remeasurement and termination transactions. For example, we tested the controls over management’s review of the remeasurement processes for each of the first three quarterly periods in 2025 and as of the Reversion Date.Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the KRIP transactions completed during the year and the methodology used to apply settlement accounting and remeasure the KRIP projected benefit obligation for each quarterly period in 2025, and as of the Reversion Date. For example, we involved actuarial specialists to assist in evaluating management’s methodology for the remeasurement of the projected benefit obligation in the first quarter of 2025 and analytically compared the assumptions in each quarterly remeasurement and as of the Reversion Date. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Eastman Kodak Company
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Eastman Kodak Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Eastman Kodak Company (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 and our report dated March 12, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Refer to Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information related to the adoption of this ASU.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The following is a description of the significant accounting policies of Eastman Kodak Company ("EKC" or "Kodak" or the "Company").
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EKC and all companies directly or indirectly controlled by EKC, either through majority ownership or otherwise. Kodak consolidates variable interest entities if Kodakhas a controlling financial interest and is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the entity.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts from previous periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification of paid-in-kind interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at year end and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
For most subsidiaries and branches outside the U.S., the local currency is the functional currency. The financial statements of these subsidiaries and branches are translated into U.S. dollars as follows: assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates; revenue, expenses and cash flows at average exchange rates; and shareholders’ equity at historical exchange rates. For those subsidiaries for which the local currency is the functional currency, the resulting translation adjustment is recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
For certain other subsidiaries and branches outside the U.S., operations are conducted primarily in U.S. dollars, which is therefore the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries and branches, which are recorded in local currency, are remeasured at year-end exchange rates, while revenue, expense, and gain and loss accounts, which are recorded in local currency, are remeasured at average exchange rates. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Adjustments that result from the remeasurement of the assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are included in Other charges (income), net in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The effects of foreign currency transactions, including related hedging activities, are included in Other charges (income), net, in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
All highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Kodak records an allowance for credit losses against financial assets measured at amortized cost basis (primarily accounts receivable) for the current expected credit losses inherent in the asset over its expected life. The allowance for credit losses is maintained based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Kodak records a specific reserve for individual accounts when Kodak becomes aware of specific customer circumstances evidencing the customer's inability to pay, such as in the case of a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer's operating results or financial position.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories is determined by the average cost method, which approximates current cost. Kodak provides inventory reserves for excess, obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on changes in customer demand, technology developments or other economic factors.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Kodak capitalizes additions and improvements while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or other disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds from disposal, is charged or credited to Other operating expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Kodak calculates depreciation expense using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which are as follows:
| EstimatedUseful | |
|---|---|
| Lives | |
| Buildings and building improvements | 5-40 |
| Land improvements | 4-20 |
| Equipment | 3-20 |
| Tooling | 1-3 |
| Furniture and fixtures | 5-10 |
Kodak depreciates leasehold improvements over the shorter of the lease term or the assets’ estimated useful life.
INTERNAL USE SOFTWARE
Expenditures for software purchases and software developed for internal use are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, generally 3 to 10 years. For software developed for internal use, only certain costs are capitalized, including external direct costs of materials and services associated with developing or obtaining the software, and payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with internal-use software projects. Capitalization of these costs ceases no later than the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Costs associated with preliminary project stage activities, training, maintenance, and other post-implementation stage activities are expensed as incurred. The carrying value of owned software and development costs is recorded in Property, plant and equipment, net while the carrying value of cloud-based software and development costs is recorded in Other long-term assets. The carrying value of software and development costs is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable.
GOODWILL AND TRADENAME
Goodwill is not amortized but is required to be assessed for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.
When testing goodwill for impairment, Kodak may assess qualitative factors for some or all of its reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If Kodak determines based on this qualitative test of impairment that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount or elects to bypass the qualitative assessment for some or all of its reporting units, then a quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed. The amount of goodwill impairment, if any, is calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.
The carrying values of indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for potential impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. The fair value of the Kodak trade name is valued using the income approach, specifically the relief from royalty method. Refer to Note 5, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION
Kodak participates in high-deductible insurance programs with retention and per occurrence deductible levels for claims related to workers’ compensation. The estimated liability for workers’ compensation is based on actuarially estimated, discounted cost of claims, including claims incurred but not reported. Historical loss development factors are utilized to project the future development of incurred losses, and the amounts are adjusted based on actual claim experience, settlements, claim development trends, changes in state regulations and judicial interpretations. Refer to Note 7, “Other Current Liabilities” and Note 8, “Other Long-Term Liabilities” for the estimated liabilities. Amounts recoverable from insurance companies or third parties are estimated using historical experience and estimates of future recoveries. Estimated recoveries are not offset against the related accrual. The amount recorded for the estimated recoveries at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $14 million for both periods, of which $12 million was reported in Other long-term assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at both December 31,2025 and 2024. The remaining $2 million for both periods was reported in Other current assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
LEASES
Kodak as lessee
Kodak determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. The classification of a lease (as an operating or financing lease) is also determined at contract inception. The primary criteria used by Kodak to classify transactions as operating or finance leases are: (1) whether ownership transfers at the end of the lease, (2) whether the lease term is equal to or greater than 75% of the economic life of the asset, and (3) whether the present value of the minimum lease payments is equal to or greater than 90% of the fair value of the asset at inception of the lease. Kodak does not have leases that include assets of a specialized nature, and generally does not provide residual value guarantees or have any leases for which the exercise of end-of-lease purchase options is reasonably assured at lease inception.
Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the operating lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The ROU assets are adjusted for prepayments and lease incentives. Variable lease payments are excluded from the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in expense in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Lease agreements may include options to extend or terminate the lease at Kodak’s discretion, which are included in the determination of the lease term when they are reasonably certain to be exercised.
Kodak’s lease agreements are primarily for real estate space and vehicles. Arrangements for goods and services are assessed to determine if the arrangement contains a lease at its inception. Refer to Note 11, "Leases" for lease classification in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
When available, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, many leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, Kodak typically uses its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments at lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that EKC would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term. Renewal options and/or termination options are factored into the determination of lease payments if considered probable.
Rental expense related to operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease agreements may include both lease and non-lease components. Kodak does not separate lease and non-lease components for real estate leases but does separate lease and non-lease components for equipment leases.
Kodak as Lessor
Kodak places its own equipment at customer sites under sales-type and operating lease arrangements.
Arrangements classified as sales-type leases with revenue recognition at inception generally transfer title to the equipment by the end of the lease term or have a lease term that is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the equipment. Leases meeting the sales-type lease criteria with variable lease payments that do not depend upon a reference rate or index are classified as operating leases if they would otherwise result in a day-one loss. If the arrangement meets the criteria for a sales-type lease but collectability is not considered probable, Kodak will not derecognize the asset and will record all payments received as a liability until the earlier of collectability becoming probable or the termination of the lease.
Arrangements that do not meet the sales-type lease criteria are classified as operating leases with revenue recognized over the term. Equipment subject to operating leases is included in Property, plant and equipment, net in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and is depreciated to estimated residual value over its expected useful life. Equipment operating lease terms and depreciable lives generally vary from 3 to 7 years.
The core operations of Eastman Business Park ("EBP") are commercial real estate management activities including real estate leasing and related facility management services. Kodak also leases underutilized portions of its other real estate properties to third parties under both operating lease and sublease agreements. Payments received under operating lease agreements for EBP are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term and are reported in Revenues in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Payments received under lease and sublease agreements for other underutilized space are recognized on a straight-line basis and reported as cost reductions in Cost of revenues, Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), Research and Development (“R&D”) costs and Other charges (income), net.
Renewal options and/or termination options are factored into the determination of lease payments if considered probable. Kodak does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for real estate leases but does separate lease and non-lease components for equipment leases.
REVENUE
Kodak’s revenue transactions include sales of products (such as components and consumables for use in Kodak and other manufacturers’ equipment, film-based products and specialty materials and chemicals), equipment, software, services (such as extended warranty, customer support and maintenance agreements, consulting, training and education, engineering, coating and contract manufacturing services), integrated solutions, intellectual property and brand licensing, and commercial real estate management activities.
Contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations including equipment, optional software licenses and service agreements. For such arrangements, revenue is typically allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are based on the observable prices of the products or services when sold separately or by using expected cost-plus margin when directly observable prices are not available. The Company reassesses its standalone selling prices at least annually.
Equipment is generally dependent on, and interrelated with, the underlying operating system (firmware) and cannot function without the operating system; in these cases, the hardware and software licenses are accounted for as a single performance obligation. Service agreements generally have a one-year initial term subject to annual renewals and may be prepaid or paid over time; for such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Kodak applies the residual allocation method for sales of certain complex, highly customized equipment due to significant variability in pricing.
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration Kodak expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
For product sales (such as plates, film, inks, specialty materials and chemicals and other consumables), revenue is recognized when control has transferred from Kodak to the customer, which may be upon delivery to the customer site at a point-in-time, based on contract terms or legal requirements in certain jurisdictions.
For non-complex equipment installations and software sales, revenue is recognized when control of each distinct performance obligation has transferred from Kodak to the customer, which is generally met when the equipment or software is delivered and installed at the customer site, as delivery and installation generally occur within the same period. For complex equipment installations or integrated software solutions, revenue is deferred until receipt of customer acceptance and control has transferred upon installation to the customer.
Software licenses are sold both in bundled equipment arrangements as discussed above or on a standalone basis. Perpetual licenses are usually sold with post-contract support services (“PCS”) which are considered distinct performance obligations as the customer’s use of the existing software is not dependent upon future upgrades. Kodak recognizes software revenue at the time that the customer obtains control over the software which generally occurs upon installation, while revenue allocated to the PCS is recognized over the service period. The Company also sells Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") arrangements with revenue recognized over the contract term.
Service revenue related to equipment and software support is recognized using the time-based method ratably over the contractual period as it best depicts when the customer receives the benefit from the service. Service revenue for time-and-materials based agreements is recognized as services are performed. In service arrangements such as consulting where final acceptance by the customer is required, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met and Kodak has a legal right to payment.
Kodak’s licensing revenue is comprised of software licenses as discussed above, licenses to use functional intellectual property (e.g. patents and technical know-how) and licenses to use symbolic intellectual property (e.g. brand names and trademarks). The timing and the amount of revenue recognized from the licensing of intellectual property depends upon a variety of factors, including the nature of the performance obligations (functional vs. symbolic licenses), specific terms of each agreement, and the payment terms.
Aside from software licenses discussed above, Kodak’s functional licenses generally provide the right to use functional intellectual property; therefore, sales-based and usage-based royalties are recognized in the period the related sales and usage occurs, while non-sales-based and non-usage-based revenue is recognized when the customer has the right to use the intellectual property. Revenue for symbolic licenses such as brand licenses is recognized over the term of the arrangement.
Deferred revenue is recorded when cash payments are received in advance of satisfying performance obligations, such as deposits required in advance on equipment orders, prepaid service contracts, prepaid tenant lease income or prepaid royalties on intellectual property arrangements. Interest expense is imputed for payments received greater than one year in advance of performance.
Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 60 days. With the exception of brand licensing arrangements, Kodak applies the practical expedient with respect to implied financial components and only imputes interest for payment terms greater than one year.
Sales and usage-based taxes are excluded from revenues.
Certain customers may receive cash-based incentives or credits, which are accounted for as variable consideration. At the time revenue is recognized, Kodak records reductions to revenue for customer incentive programs, rebates and promotional allowances. For those incentives that require estimation, such as for volume rebates, Kodak uses historical experience and both internal and customer data to estimate the sales incentive at the time revenue is recognized.
Incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract consist of sales commissions. Kodak expenses sales commissions when incurred if the amortization period would be one year or less; otherwise, sales commissions are initially deferred and subsequently amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. These costs are recorded in SG&A expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Kodak accrues the estimated cost of post-sale obligations, including basic product warranties, at the time of revenue recognition.
Kodak does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less or for which revenue is recognized at the amount to which Kodak has the right to invoice for services performed.
Performance obligations with an original expected length of greater thanone year generally consist of deferred service contracts, operating leases and brand licensing arrangements. As of December 31,2025, there was appr oximately $84 million of unrecognized revenue from unsatisfied performance obligations. Approximately 20% of the revenue from unsatisfied performance obligations is expected to be recognized in 2026,15% in 2027,10% in both 2028 and 2029 and 45%thereafter.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
Amounts charged to customers and costs incurred by Kodak related to shipping and handling are included in Net revenue and Cost of revenues, respectively.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
R&D costs, which include costs incurred in connection with new product development, fundamental and exploratory research, process improvement, product use technology and product accreditation, are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
ADVERTISING
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in SG&A expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Advertising expenses amou nted to $3 million, $4 million and $2 million for the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The carrying values of long-lived assets, other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable.
Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows from the use of and eventual disposition of such asset group is less than the carrying value of the asset group, a loss is recognized to the extent the carrying value of the asset group exceeds its fair value. Kodak determines fair value through quoted market prices in active markets or using a discounted cash flow analysis.
The remaining useful lives of long-lived assets are reviewed in connection with the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets and the ongoing strategic review of the business and operations. If the review indicates that the remaining useful life of the long-lived asset has changed significantly, the depreciation on that asset is adjusted to facilitate full cost recovery over its revised estimated remaining useful life.
INCOME TAXES
Kodak recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of operating losses, credit carry-forwards and temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of Kodak’s assets and liabilities. Kodak records a valuation allowance to reduce its net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. For discussion of the amounts and components of the valuation allowances as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, refer to Note 18, “Income Taxes.”
The undistributed earnings of Kodak’s foreign subsidiaries are not considered permanently reinvested. Kodak has recognized a deferred taxliability (net of related foreign tax credits) on the foreign subsidiaries’ undistributed earnings.
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires disclosure of additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes in the rate reconciliation table and more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. The ASU requires entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance makes several other changes to the disclosure requirements. The ASU is required to be applied prospectively, with the option to apply it retrospectively. The ASU is effective for Kodak for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 (January 1, 2025 for Kodak). Kodak adopted ASU 2023‑09 in the year ended December 31, 2025 on a prospective basis, which primarily resulted in expanded disclosures in the rate reconciliation table and regarding certain reconciling items. Refer to Note 18 "Income Taxes."
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses, including but not limited to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, in a tabular format within the notes to their financial statements, as well as provide additional disclosures related to certain other specified expenses. The ASU may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 (January 1, 2027 for Kodak) and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 (January 1, 2028 for Kodak). Kodak is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. ASU 2025-06 modernizes the accounting for internal-use software to reflect the evolution of software development to using an incremental and iterative development method. Accordingly, the ASU removes all references in Subtopic 350-40 to prescriptive and sequential software development phases (or “project stages”), and requires an entity to start capitalizing software costs when both (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The ASU may be applied using either a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within such annual reporting periods (January 1, 2028 for Kodak). Kodak is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832). ASU 2025-10 establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities, as GAAP previously did not provide specific authoritative guidance about the recognition, measurement and presentation of government grants. This ASU may be applied using either a retrospective, modified retrospective, or modified prospective approach, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028 and interim reporting periods within such annual reporting periods (January 1, 2029 for Kodak). Kodak is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

Term Loan Credit Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Guarantors") entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Original Term Loan Credit Agreement”) with certain funds affiliated with Kennedy Lewis Investment Management LLC (“KLIM”) as lenders (the “Original Term Loan Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent (the “Term Loan Agent”). Pursuant to the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Original Term Loan Lenders provided the Company with (i) an initial term loan in the amount of $225 million, which was drawn in full on the same date, and (ii) a commitment to provide delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50 millionon or before February 26, 2023 (collectively, the “Original Term Loans”). The delayed draw term loans were drawn in full on June 15, 2022. The maturity date of the Original Term Loans was February 26, 2026, and the Original Term Loans were non-amortizing.
On June 30, 2023, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into an amendment (the “Term Loan Amendment”) to the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement (the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement, as amended and restated by the Term Loan Amendment, the “Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement”), with certain funds affiliated with KLIM as lenders (the “Term Loan Lenders”) and the Term Loan Agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Term Loan Amendment, the Term Loan Lenders provided the Company with a commitment to provide term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $450 million (the “Term Loans”).
On July 21, 2023, the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement became effective and the Company completed its borrowing of the Term Loans. The Company received net proceeds of $435 million from the Term Loans which were used to (i) refinance the obligations under the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement, (ii) repay in full and terminate the commitments under the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility made available pursuant to the 2023 Amended ABL Credit Agreement as defined below, (iii) repay in full the Company’s outstanding 5.0% unsecured convertible promissory notes due May 28, 2026 (the "Convertible Notes") held by the Original Term Loan Lenders, (iv) pay certain fees and expenses related to the foregoing and the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement (defined below), (v) provide cash collateral in respect of the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement, as described below, or other collateral obligations, and (vi) for general corporate purposes and working capital needs of the Company and its subsidiaries (a net amount of $29 million).
The Term Loan Amendment also amended and restated the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity date to the earlier of August 15, 2028 or the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s then-outstanding Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock ("Convertible Securities") or any extensions or refinancings of any of the foregoing, (ii) make certain other changes to the terms of the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement and (iii) make certain other changes to the terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2021, among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Term Loan Agent.
The Term Loans bear interest at a rate of 12.5% per annum of which, except as otherwise provided in the May 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment (defined below),7.5% per annum is payable in cash and 5.0% per annum is payable “in-kind” ("PIK") or in cash at the Company’s option. Obligations under the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) not constituting L/C Cash Collateral, as defined below (collectively, the “Term Loan Priority Collateral”), and a second priority lien on the L/C Cash Collateral. The aggregate carrying value of the Term Loan Priority Collateral and L/C Cash Collateral as of December 31, 2025 was $3.6 billion.
The Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement continues to limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement) to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur or create liens, (iii) dispose of assets, (iv) make restricted payments and (v) make investments. The Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, including delivery of certain of the Company’s financial statements, and customary event of default provisions, including a cross-default provision that would give rise to an event of default if there is a default under or acceleration of “Material Indebtedness” other than intercompany indebtedness. Material Indebtedness includes obligations having a principal amount of at least $20 million (increasing to $25 million if the Term Loans are paid down to $200 million, which is referred to as the “Deleveraging Milestone Date”). The Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement does not include a financial maintenance covenant or any subjective acceleration clauses.
On an annual basis, the Company is obligated to prepay, within 10 business days following the filing of annual Form 10-K, outstanding Term Loans in an amount equal to Excess Cash Flow (“ECF”) as defined in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement provided no such prepayment is required if such prepayment would cause U.S. liquidity to be less than $60 million, or $85 million after the Deleveraging Milestone Date. For the year ended December 31, 2025, ECF was a negative amount. In addition to customary prepayment covenants, the Company is also required to use the Net Proceeds from the monetization of Target Non-Core Assets as such terms are defined in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement to make prepayments subject to certain exceptions. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company prepaid $17 million of the Term Loans with Net Proceeds from the sale of Target Non-Core Assets. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company prepaid $303 million of the Term Loans with cash proceeds from the Kodak Retirement Income Plan ("KRIP") reversion and settlement process.
On February 26, 2025, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into the First amendment to the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “February 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment”) with the Term Loan Lenders and the Term Loan Agent to modify the maturity date of the Term Loans to be the earlier of August 15, 2028 or the date that is five days prior to the maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s then-outstanding Convertible Securities or any extensions or refinancings of any of the foregoing (May 23, 2026), instead of the earlier of August 15, 2028 or the date that is ninety-one days prior to the maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s then-outstanding Convertible Securities or any extensions or refinancings of any of the foregoing (February 26, 2026).
On May 7, 2025, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “May 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment”). The May 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment provides the Company the option to pay the Cash Interest Payment entirely in PIK for the next six quarterly interest payments. In addition, the May 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment revised the mandatory prepayment provisions under the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement requiring Kodak to use 100% of the net cash proceeds from certain transactions to prepay Term Loans until the amount of the Term Loans is reduced to $200 million and, thereafter, to use 50% of the net cash proceeds to prepay Term Loans until the amount of the Term Loans is reduced to $100 million, in each case plus a 1% prepayment fee. The Company elected to pay the Cash Interest Payment for the second and third quarters of 2025 entirely in PIK.
On November 4, 2025, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “November 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment”) with the Term Loan Lenders and the Term Loan Agent. The November 2025 Term Loan Credit Agreement Amendment (i) modified the maturity date of the Term Loans to be August 15, 2028, (ii) eliminated the mandatory prepayment obligation requiring Kodak to use 50% of the net cash proceeds from certain transactions to prepay Term Loans below $200 million, (iii) provided the Company the option to prepay the Term Loans after May 15, 2026 with cash proceeds from certain transactions plus a 4% prepayment fee, (iv) removed limitations on restricted payments onthe repurchase or redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock subject to certain restrictions and (v) removed the requirement to include reversion proceeds not used to prepay Term Loans in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow as defined in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement.
On March 11, 2026, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the Term Loan Lenders and the Term Loan Agent. Refer to Note 29, “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt - Original Term Loans
The Company used $316 million of the net proceeds received from the Term Loans, which represented the aggregate principal amount of the Original Term Loans plus accrued PIK and prepayment premium, to refinance the Company’s obligations under the Original Term Loan Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company used $2 million of the net proceeds to pay accrued and unpaid cash interest. The carrying value of the Original Term Loans as of July 21, 2023 was approximately $293 million. The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $23 million during the third quarter of 2023.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt - Amended and Restated Term Loans
On November 28, 2025, the Company used$312 million of cash proceeds received from the KRIP reversion to prepay a portion of the outstanding principal plus accrued interest and a prepayment premium. The Company prepaid $303 million of the Term Loans, which represented the principal amount of the Term Loans required to reduce the outstanding balance to $200 million, paid $6 million in accrued uncapitalized interest and a prepayment premium of $3 million. The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $7 million during the fourth quarter of 2025.
Board Rights Agreement
On June 30, 2023, in connection with the execution of the Term Loan Amendment, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Board Rights Agreement Amendment") to the letter agreement with KLIM, dated February 26, 2021 (the “Original Board Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Board Rights Agreement Amendment, KLIM's right to nominate one individual for election as a member of the Company’s board of directors will last until the date on which KLIM ceases to hold at least $200 million of the original principal amount of Term Loans. The individual nominated pursuant to the Original Board Rights Agreement was appointed to the Company's Board of Directors on April 1, 2021 and has been elected to serve one-year terms at each of the annual meetings since May 19, 2021.
Securities Purchase Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Term Loan Lenders (the “Buyers”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company sold to the Buyers (i) an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares (the “Purchased Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) for a purchase price of $10.00 in cash per share for an aggregate purchase price of $10 million and (ii) $25 million aggregate principal amount of the newly issued
Convertible Notes in a private placement transaction. The issuance and sale of the Purchased Shares and Convertible Notes were consummated on February 26, 2021.
Convertible Notes
The Convertible Notes bore interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum, which was payable in cash on the maturity date and in additional shares of Common Stock on any conversion date. The payment of interest only at the maturity date has the same effect as delivering additional debt instruments to the holders of the Convertible Notes and therefore is considered PIK. Therefore, PIK was being added to the carrying value of the debt through the term and interest expense was recorded using the effective interest method. The maturity date of the Convertible Notes was May 28, 2026.
Embedded Derivatives
The Convertible Notes were considered more akin to a debt-type instrument and the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded conversion features were not considered clearly and closely related to the Convertible Notes. Kodak allocated $12 million of the net proceeds received to a derivative liability based on the aggregate fair value of the embedded features on the date of issuance which reduced the net carrying value of the Convertible Notes. The derivative was being accounted for at fair value with subsequent changes in the fair value being reported as part of Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The fair value of the Convertible Notes embedded derivative at July 21, 2023, when the Convertible Notes were repaid, was a liability of $5 million.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt - Convertible Notes
The carrying value, including the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, of the Convertible Notes at July 21, 2023 was approximately $24 million. The Company used $28 million of the net proceeds received from the Term Loans to repay in full the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes plus accrued PIK interest. The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $4 million during the third quarter of 2023.
Securities Registration Rights Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Buyers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Securities Registration Rights Agreement”) providing the Buyers with registration rights in respect of the Purchased Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes. The Securities Registration Rights Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including certain customary indemnification obligations; however, the Securities Registration Rights Agreement does not obligate the Company to facilitate an underwritten offering of the registered Common Stock by the Buyers.
Letter of Credit Facility Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (the “L/C Facility Agreement”) among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto (the “L/C Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A., as agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as issuing bank. Pursuant to the L/C Facility Agreement, the L/C Lenders committed to issue letters of credit on the Company’s behalf in an aggregate amount of up to $50 million, provided that the Company posts cash collateral in an amount greater than or equal to 103% of the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding at any given time (the “L/C Cash Collateral”).
On March 14, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the L/C Facility Agreement (the “2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement”) to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date of the L/C Facility Agreement from February 26, 2024 to the earliest of June 12, 2024, the termination of the 2023 Amended ABL Credit Agreement, as applicable, or the date that is 91 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s Term Loans, Convertible Notes, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or any refinancing of any of the foregoing and (ii) require the Company to maintain daily Minimum Liquidity of $50 million, subject to certain cure rights, and to maintaining a quarterly Minimum Liquidity of $80 million. Each of the capitalized but undefined terms used in the context of describing the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement has the meaning ascribed to such term in the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement.
The 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement required the Company to maintain Excess Availability above the greater of 12.5% of lender commitments or $11.25 million. If Excess Availability fell below the greater of 12.5% of lender commitments or $11.25 million, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Trigger Event would have occurred under the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement. During any Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Trigger Event, the Company would have been required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0. Since Excess Availability was greater than 12.5% of lender commitments or $11.25 million throughout the term of the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement, Kodak was not required to have a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0.
On June 30, 2023, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into an amendment (the “June 2023 L/C Facility Amendment”) to the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement (as amended and restated by the June 2023 L/C Facility Amendment, the “Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement”), with Bank of America, N.A., as L/C Lender, L/C Agent and Issuing Bank. The June 2023 L/C Facility Amendment became effective on July 21, 2023.
Under the terms and conditions of the June 2023 L/C Facility Amendment, the L/C Lender increased the commitment to issue letters of credit on the Company’s behalf from an aggregate amount of up to $50 million, to an aggregate amount of up to $100 million (the “L/C Facility Commitments”), until August 30, 2023; provided that, at all times, the Company posted cash collateral in an amount greater than or equal to 104% of the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding at any given time (the “L/C Cash Collateral”).
Upon the termination of the 2023 Amended ABL Credit Agreement on July 21, 2023, the letters of credit totaling $58 million issued under the 2023 Amended ABL Credit Agreement were transferred to the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement. The Company used $59 million of the net proceeds from the Term Loans to cash collateralize the letters of credit transferred to the L/C Facility. In August 2023, the Company used $68 million of the funds in the L/C Cash Collateral account to cash collateralize the Company’s undiscounted actuarial workers’ compensation obligations directly with the NYS WCB, reducing the issued letters of credit to $31 million, and elected to reduce the L/C Facility Commitments to $50 million effective August 15, 2023.
The June 2023 L/C Facility Amendment also amended and restated the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement to, among other things, (i) extended the maturity date to the earliest of (x) the fifth anniversary of the Restatement Date (as defined therein), (y) the date that is 90 days prior to the maturity of the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement, as such date may be extended pursuant to the terms thereof (or the maturity date of any refinancing thereof), or (z) the date that is 90 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s then-outstanding Convertible Securities or any refinancings of any of the foregoing, (ii) eliminated the existing cash maintenance requirements, and (iii) made certain other changes to the terms of the 2023 Amended L/C Facility Agreement.
Approximately $24 million and $27 million letters of credit were issued under the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement as of December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. The balance on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral account as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $25 million and $29 million, respectively.
The Company’s obligations under the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors and are secured by (i) a first priority lien on the L/C Cash Collateral and (ii) a second priority lien on certain Term Loan Priority Collateral of the Company and U.S. subsidiary guarantors.
The Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants similar to the affirmative and negative covenants contained in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement. The Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement does not include a minimum liquidity or financial maintenance covenant.
The Company will pay an unused line fee of 37.5-50 basis points per annum, depending on whether the unused portion of the maximum commitments is less than or equal to 50% or greater than 50% of such commitments, respectively. The Company will pay a letter of credit fee of 3.75% per annum on issued and outstanding letters of credit, in addition to a fronting fee of 25 basis points on such letters of credit. Amounts drawn under any letter of credit will be reimbursed from the L/C Cash Collateral. If not so reimbursed, and not otherwise repaid by the Company to the L/C Lender, such amounts will accrue interest, to be paid monthly, at a floating Base Rate (as defined in the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement) plus 2.75% per annum until repaid.
On February 26, 2025, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into an amendment to the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement (the “2025 L/C Facility Agreement Amendment”) with the L/C Lenders and Bank of America, N.A. to modify the maturity date of the facility to the earliest of (x) the fifth anniversary of the Restatement Date, (y) May 11, 2026, the date that is 10 days prior to the maturity of the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement, as such date may be extended pursuant to the terms thereof, or (z) May 11, 2026, the date that is 15 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s then-outstanding Convertible Securities. Upon a Permitted Refinancing (as defined therein) of any of the foregoing, the springing maturity date will be 30 days prior to the maturity date or redemption date of the refinancing.
On November 4, 2025, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (the “November 2025 L/C Facility Amendment”) with the L/C Lenders and Bank of America, N.A. The November 2025 L/C Facility Amendment (i) modified the maturity date of the facility to be May 17, 2028, the date that is 90 days prior to the maturity date of the Term Loans, and (ii) removed limitations on restricted payments on the repurchase or redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock subject to certain restrictions.
RED-Rochester, LLC
In January 2019 Kodak entered into a series of agreements with RED-Rochester, LLC (“RED”), which provides utilities to EBP. Kodak received a payment of $14 million from RED. Kodak is required to pay a minimum annual payment to RED of approximately $2 million regardless of utility usage. Kodak is accounting for the $14 million payment from RED as debt. The minimum payments required under the agreement from Kodak to RED are reported as a reduction of the debt and interest expense using the effective interest method. The debt payments to RED continue until August 2033.
NOTE 10: REDEEMABLE, CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
Redeemable convertible preferred stock was as follows:
| As of December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 |
| Series B preferred stock | $99 | $98 |
| Series C preferred stock | — | 120 |
| Total | $99 | $218 |
Series B Preferred Stock
Repurchase and Exchange Agreement
On February 26, 2021 the Company entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Repurchase and Exchange Agreement (the “Repurchase and Exchange Agreement”) with Southeastern Asset Management, Inc. (“Southeastern”), Longleaf Partners Small-Cap Fund, C2W Partners Master Fund Limited and Deseret Mutual Pension Trust, which are investment funds managed by Southeastern (such investment funds, collectively, the “Purchasers”). The Company repurchasedone million shares of its Series A Preferred Stock under the terms of the Repurchase and Exchange Agreement for $100,641,667, representing the liquidation value of such Series A Preferred Stock plus accrued and unpaid dividends. In addition, the Company and the Purchasers agreed to exchange the remainingone million shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock held by the Purchasers for shares of the Company’s newly created 4.0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) on a one-for-one basis plus accrued and unpaid dividends of $641,667. The exchange of shares of Series A Preferred Stock for shares of Series B Preferred Stock was a noncash financing activity. The fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock at the time of issuance was approximately $95 million. The Company has classified the Series B Preferred Stock as temporary equity in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Dividend and Other Rights
On February 25, 2021, the Company filed with the Department of Treasury of the State of New Jersey a Certificate of Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Series B Certificate of Designations”) which established the designation, number of shares, rights, preferences and limitations of the Series B Preferred Stock which became effective upon filing. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Common Stock and pari passu with the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution. The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $100 per share, and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends payable quarterly in cash at a rate of 4.0% per annum. Until the second quarter of 2025, all dividends owed on the Series B Preferred Stock were declared and paid when due. No quarterly cash dividends were declared in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2025. If dividends on any Series B Preferred Stock are in arrears for six or more consecutive or non-consecutive dividend periods, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to nominate one director at the next annual shareholder meeting and all subsequent shareholder meetings until all accumulated dividends on such Series B Preferred Stock have been paid or set aside. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have certain limited special approval rights, including with respect to the issuance of pari passu or senior equity securities of the Company.
Conversion Features
Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of each holder at any time, into shares of Common Stock at the initial conversion rate of 9.5238 shares of Common Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $10.50 pershare of Common Stock). The initial conversion rate and the corresponding conversion price are subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustments. If a holder elects to convert any shares of Series B Preferred Stock during a specified period in connection with a fundamental change (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designations), such holder can elect to have the conversion rate adjusted and can elect to receive a cash payment in lieu of shares for a portion of the shares. Such holder will also be entitled to a payment in respect of accumulated dividends. In addition, the Company will have the right to require holdersto convert any shares of Series B Preferred Stock in connection with certain reorganization events in which case the conversion rate will be adjusted, subject to certain limitations.
The Company has the right to cause the mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock if the closing price of the Common Stock has equaled or exceeded $14.50 (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion price) for 45 trading days within a period of 60 consecutive trading days subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation discussed below.
Embedded Conversion Features
The Company concluded that the Series B Preferred Stock was more akin to a debt-type instrument and that the economic characteristics and risks of the conversion option upon a fundamental change by the holder was not considered clearly and closely related to the Series B Preferred Stock. Accordingly, this embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the Series B Preferred Stock and is being separately accounted for as a derivative. The Company allocated $1 million to the derivative liability based on the aggregate fair value of the embedded conversion feature on the date of issuance which reduced the original carrying value of the Series B Preferred Stock.
The conversion option upon a fundamental change embedded derivative value at issuance was calculated as the difference between the total value of the Series B Preferred Stock and the sum of the net present value of the cash flows if the Series B Preferred Stock is redeemed on its redemption date and the values of other embedded derivatives. Other than events which alter the likelihood of a fundamental change, the value of the conversion option upon a fundamental change embedded derivative reflects the value as of the issuance date, amortized for the passage of time. The derivative amortization is reported in Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The carrying value of the Series B Preferred Stock embedded derivative as of both December 31, 2025 and 2024 was a liability of less than $1 millionand is included in Other current liabilities at December 31, 2025 and in Other long-term liabilities at December 31, 2024 in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
The carrying value of the Series B Preferred Stock at the time of issuance, $93 million ($95 million fair value of Series B Preferred Stock on February 26, 2021 less $1 million allocated to the derivative liability and $1 million of transaction costs) is being accreted to the mandatory redemption amount using the effective interest method to Additional paid in capital in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as a deemed dividend from the date of issuance through the mandatory redemption date, May 28, 2026.
Redemption Features
If any shares of Series B Preferred Stock have not been converted prior to May 28, 2026 (the “Redemption Date”), the Company is required to redeem such shares at $100 per share plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends. As the Company concluded that the Series B Preferred Stock is considered more akin to a debt-type instrument, the redemption feature is considered to be clearly and closely related to the host contract and therefore was not required to be separated from the Series B Preferred Stock.
Series B Registration Rights Agreement
On November 15, 2016, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Series A Registration Rights Agreement”) which provided the Purchasers with customary registration rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock held by the Purchasers. The Series A Registration Rights Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including certain customary indemnification obligations. The Repurchase and Exchange Agreement extended the registration rights provided under the Series A Registration Rights Agreement to shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.
Series B Preferred Stock Purchase
On December 5, 2025, certain funds affiliated with Kennedy Lewis (such funds, collectively, the “KL Funds”) purchased all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock from the Purchasers in a privately negotiated transaction. As part of this transaction, the Company entered into a separate agreement with the KL Funds that each party will not have the right to effect any conversion of shares of Preferred Stock held by the KL Funds if after giving effect to such conversion, the KL Funds together with its affiliates and any members, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding (the "Beneficial Ownership Limitation"). The KL Funds, upon not less than 61-days' prior written notice to the Company, may increase or decrease such Beneficial Ownership Limitation. While the agreement entered into by both parties represents a modification of the conversion rights under the Repurchase and Exchange Agreement, no incremental value was provided to the current holders of the Series B Preferred Stock.
On March 11, 2026, the Company filed with the Department of Treasury of the State of New Jersey a Certificate of Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company which amended certain terms of the Series B Preferred Stock. Refer to Note 29, “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
Series C Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and GO EK Ventures IV, LLC (the “Investor”) entered into a Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Investor, and the Investor agreed to purchase from the Company, an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly created 5.0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), for a purchase price of $100 per share, representing $100 million of gross proceeds to the Company. The initial issuance and sale of 750,000 shares ($75 million gross proceeds) closed on February 26, 2021. The final issuance and sale of the remaining 250,000 shares ($25 million gross proceeds) closed on March 30, 2021 after expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act. The Investor was a fund managed by Grand Oaks Capital. The Company used the proceeds from the sale of the Series C Preferred Stock for general corporate purposes including the funding of growth initiatives. The Company classified the Series C Preferred Stock as temporary equity in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Dividend and Other Rights
On February 25, 2021, the Company filed with the Department of Treasury of the State of New Jersey a Certificate of Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Series C Certificate of Designations”) which established the designation, number of shares, rights, preferences and limitations of the Series C Preferred Stock and became effective upon filing. The Series C Preferred Stock ranked senior to the Common Stock and pari passu with the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution. The Series C Preferred Stock had an initial liquidation preference of $100 per share, and holders of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled to cumulative dividends payable quarterly “in-kind” in the form of additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock at a rate of 5.0% per annum. If dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock had not been declared and paid for any given fiscal quarter, the liquidation preference was automatically increased by the amount of such unpaid dividends. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock were also entitled to participate in any dividends paid on the Common Stock (other than stock dividends) on an as-converted basis, with such dividends on any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock being payable upon conversion of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock to Common Stock. Dividends owed on the Series C Preferred Stock had been declared and additional Series C shares had been issued when due.
Holders of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled to vote together with the holders of the Common Stock as a single class, in each case, on an as-converted basis, except where a separate class vote is required by law. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock had certain limited special approval rights, including with respect to the issuance of pari passu or senior equity securities of the Company.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Investor had the right to nominate one director at each annual or special meeting of the Company’s shareholders ("Designee") until the earlier of the third anniversary of the execution of the Purchase Agreement and such time as the Investor and its Affiliates (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) did not hold at least a majority of the Series C Preferred Stock purchased under the Purchase Agreement. The Designee was elected to serve one-year terms at each of the annual meetings since May 19, 2021. In the third quarter of 2023 the Designee resigned and a successor Designee nominated by the Investor was appointed by the Company's Board of Directors to fill the vacancy.
Conversion Features
Each share of Series C Preferred Stock was convertible, at the option of each holder at any time, into shares of Common Stock at the initial conversion price of $10 per share of Common Stock. The initial conversion price and the corresponding conversion rate were subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustments and to proportional increase in the event the liquidation preference of the Series C Preferred Stock was automatically increased as described above. If a holder elected to convert any shares of Series C Preferred Stock during a specified period in connection with a fundamental change (as defined in the Series C Certificate of Designations), such holder could have elected to have the conversion rate adjusted and could have elected to receive a cash payment in lieu of shares for a portion of the shares of Common Stock. Such holder would have also been entitled to a payment in respect of accumulated dividends and a payment based on the present value of all required remaining dividend payments through May 28, 2026, the mandatory redemption date. Such additional payments would have been payable at the Company’s option in cash or in additional shares of Common Stock. In addition, the Company had the right to require holders to convert any shares of Series C Preferred Stock in connection with certain reorganization events in which case the conversion rate would have been adjusted, subject to certain limitations.
The Company had the right to cause the mandatory conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock (i) at any time after February 26, 2023 if the closing price of the Common Stock has equaled or exceeded 200% of the then-effective conversion price for 45 trading days within a period of 60 consecutive trading days, or (ii) at any time after February 26, 2024 if the closing price of the Common Stock has equaled or exceeded 150% of the then-effective conversion price for 45 trading days within a period of 60 consecutive trading days.
Embedded Conversion Features
The Company concluded that the Series C Preferred Stock was more akin to a debt-type instrument and that the economic characteristics and risks of the conversion option upon a fundamental change by the holder was not considered clearly and closely related to the Series C Preferred Stock. Accordingly, this embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the Series C Preferred Stock and separately accounted for as a derivative. The Company allocated $2 million of the net proceeds received to the derivative liability based on the aggregate fair value of the embedded conversion features on the dates of issuance which reduced the original carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock.
The conversion option upon a fundamental change embedded derivative value at issuance was calculated as the difference between the total value of the Series C Preferred Stock and the sum of the net present value of the cash flows if the Series C Preferred Stock had been redeemed on its redemption date and the values of other embedded derivatives. Other than events which alter the likelihood of a fundamental change, the value of the conversion option upon a fundamental change embedded derivative reflects the value as of the issuance date, amortized for the passage of time. The derivative amortization had been reported in Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. At the time of the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange, (as defined below), the remaining liability of less than $1 million was written off.
The carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock embedded derivative both at the time of the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange and as of December 31, 2024, was a liability of less than $1 million and was included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
The carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock at the time of issuance, $97 million ($100 million aggregate gross proceeds less $2 million allocated to the derivative liability and $1 million in transaction costs) was being accreted to the mandatory redemption amount using the effective interest method to Additional paid in capital in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as a deemed dividend from the date of issuance through the mandatory redemption date, May 28, 2026.
Redemption Features
If any shares of Series C Preferred Stock had not been converted prior to the Redemption Date, the Company was required to redeem such shares at $100 per share plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends thereon; provided that the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock had the right to extend such redemption date by up to two years. As the Company concluded that the Series C Preferred Stock was more akin to a debt-type instrument, the redemption feature was considered to be clearly and closely related to the host contract and therefore was not required to be separated from the Series C Preferred Stock.
Series C Registration Rights Agreement
On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Series C Registration Rights Agreement”) which provides the Investor with customary registration rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Registration Rights Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including certain customary indemnification obligations.
Series C Preferred Stock Exchange
On August 8, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into a Series C Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Series C Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Investor agreed to exchange (the “Series C Preferred Stock Exchange”)1,241,871 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock held by the Investor (such shares, the “Series C Exchange Shares”), which represented all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, for a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the aggregate liquidation preference of the Series C Exchange Shares of $124,187,100 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, at an exchange rate of $8.25 per share.
The Series C Preferred Stock Exchange was consummated on August 8, 2025 (the "Exchange Date"), in connection with which the Company issued 15,103,163 shares of Common Stock to the Investor in exchange for the Series C Exchange Shares and the accrued and unpaid dividends thereon in accordance with the terms of the Series C Exchange Agreement. The carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock as of the Exchange Date approximated $123 million. The fair value of the common stock issued approximated $106 million, which exceeded the fair value of common stock issuable pursuant to the conversion terms of the Purchase Agreement by
$19 million. This amount was recorded as a deemed dividend to Additional paid in capital in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Following the completion of the exchange, the Company’s obligations with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock were fully discharged.
As a result of the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange the Investor’s voting power increased from 12.9% as of December 31, 2024 to 15.7% following the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange. In addition, in connection with the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange the Investor was granted the right to nominate one member for election to the Company’s Board for so long as it holds at least 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. In connection with the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement that provides customary registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issued in the Series C Preferred Stock Exchange.

NOTE 12: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Asset Retirement Obligations
Kodak’s asset retirement obligations primarily relate to asbestos contained in buildings that Kodak owns. In many of the countries in which Kodak operates, environmental regulations exist that require Kodak to handle and dispose of asbestos in a special manner if a building undergoes major renovations or is demolished. Otherwise, Kodak is not required to remove the asbestos from its buildings. Kodak records a liability equal to the estimated fair value of its obligation to perform asset retirement activities related to the asbestos, computed using an expected present value technique, when sufficient information exists to calculate the fair value. Kodak does not have a liability recorded related to every building that contains asbestos because Kodak cannot estimate the fair value of its obligation for certain buildings due to a lack of sufficient information about the range of time over which the obligation may be settled through demolition, renovation or sale of the building.
The following table provides asset retirement obligation activity:
| For the Year Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 |
| Asset Retirement Obligations at start of period | $43 | $43 |
| Accretion expense | 1 | — |
| Asset Retirement Obligations at end of period | $44 | $43 |
Other Commitments and Contingencies
As of December 31, 2025 the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $24 million issued under the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement, as well as bank guarantees and letters of credit of $2 million, surety bonds in the amount of $49 million, and restricted cash of $105 million, primarily related to cash collateral supporting the Company’s undiscounted actuarial workers’compensation obligations with the NYS WCB, cash collateral to ensure payment of possible casualty and workers’ compensation claims, cash collateral supporting the outstanding letters of credit under the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement, to ensure payment of possible legal contingencies, hedging activities, environmental liabilities, rental payments and to support various customs, tax and trade activities. The restricted cash is recorded in Other current assets and Restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Kodak’s Brazilian operations are involved in various litigation matters in Brazil and have received or been the subject of numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes in various stages of litigation, as well as civil litigation and disputes associated with former employees and contract labor. The tax matters, which comprise the majority of the litigation matters, are primarily related to federal and state value-added taxes and income taxes. Kodak’s Brazilian operations are disputing these matters and intend to vigorously defend its position. Kodak routinely assesses all these matters as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability in its Brazilian operations and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable. As of December 31, 2025, Kodak’s Brazilian Operations maintained accruals of approximately $5 million for claims aggregating approximately $89 million inclusive of interest and penalties where appropriate. The unreserved portion of the indirect taxes, civil litigation and disputes involving former employees and contract labor claims, inclusive of any related interest and penalties, for which there was at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred, amounted to approximately $6 million.
In connection with assessments in Brazil, local regulations require Kodak's Brazilian operations to post security for a portion of the amounts in dispute. As of December 31, 2025, Kodak's Brazilian operations have posted security composed of $7 million of pledged cash reported within Restricted cash in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and liens on certain Brazilian assets with a net book value of approximately $39 million. Generally, any encumbrances on the Brazilian assets would be removed to the extent the matter is resolved in favor of Kodak's Brazilian operations. The matter securing the lien on the non-cash assets was resolved in favor of Kodak’s Brazilian operations on March 12, 2024. On September 29, 2025, the Notary Register Office confirmed the cancellation of the lien on Brazilian non-cash assets. Recognition of the enrollment by the Internal Revenue Service is in process and Kodak expects the process to be completed within the next several months.
In addition, Kodak is involved in various lawsuits, claims, investigations, remediations and proceedings, including, from time to time, commercial, customs, employment, environmental, tort and health and safety matters, which are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of business. Kodak is also subject, from time to time, to various assertions, claims, proceedings and requests for indemnification concerning intellectual property, including patent infringement suits involving technologies that are incorporated in a broad spectrum of Kodak’s products such as the on-going patent infringement claims brought by FUJIFILM Corporation against Eastman Kodak Company (in the US) and its German subsidiaries (in Germany) alleging that certain of Kodak’s SONORA process free plates infringe four of its patents in each jurisdiction. These matters are in various stages of investigation and litigation and are being vigorously defended. Based on information currently available, Kodak does not believe that it is probable that the outcomes in these various matters, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and judgments could be rendered or settlements entered that could adversely affect Kodak’s operating results or cash flows in a particular period. Kodak routinely assesses all of its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable.
NOTE 13: GUARANTEES
In accordance with the terms of a settlement agreement concerning certain of the Company’s historical environmental liabilities at EBP, in the event the historical liabilities exceed $99 million, the Company will become liable for 50% of the portion above $99 million with no limitation to the maximum potential future payments. There is no liability recorded related to this guarantee.
Indemnifications
Kodak may, in certain instances, indemnify third parties when it sells businesses and real estate, and in the ordinary course of business with its customers, suppliers, service providers and business partners. Additionally, Kodak indemnifies officers and directors who are, or were, serving at Kodak’s request in such capacities. Historically, costs incurred to settle claims related to these indemnifications have not been material to Kodak’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, the fair value of any right to indemnification granted during the year ended December 31, 2025 was not material to Kodak’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Extended Warranty Arrangements
Kodak offers its customers extended warranty arrangements that are generallyone year, but may range from three months tosix years after the original warranty period. Kodak provides repair services and routine maintenance under these arrangements. Kodak has not separated the extended warranty costs from the routine maintenance service costs, as it is not practicable to do so. Therefore, these costs have been aggregated in the discussion that follows. The change in Kodak's deferred revenue balance in relation to these extended warranty and maintenance arrangements, which is reflected in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was as follows:
| (in millions) | |
|---|---|
| Deferred revenue on extended warranties as of December 31, 2023 | $17 |
| New extended warranty and maintenance arrangements | 69 |
| Recognition of extended warranty and maintenance arrangement revenue | (74) |
| Deferred revenue on extended warranties as of December 31, 2024 | 12 |
| New extended warranty and maintenance arrangements | 56 |
| Recognition of extended warranty and maintenance arrangement revenue | (54) |
| Deferred revenue on extended warranties as of December 31, 2025 | $14 |
Costs incurred under these extended warranty and maintenance arrangements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $54 million,$59 million and $77 million, respectively.
NOTE 14: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Kodak, as a result of its global operating and financing activities, is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates, which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial position. Kodak manages such exposures, in part, with derivative financial instruments. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to mitigate currency risk related to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, as well as forecasted foreign currency denominated intercompany assets.
Kodak’s exposure to changes in interest rates results from its investing and borrowing activities used to meet its liquidity needs. Kodak does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
Kodak’s foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as hedges and are marked to market through net (loss) earnings at the same time that the exposed assets and liabilities are re-measured through net (loss) earnings (both in Other charges (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations). The notional amount of such contracts open at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $224 million and $251 million, respectively. The majority of the contracts of this type held by Kodak at December 31,2025 and 2024 were denominated in Chinese renminbi, Japanese yen and European euros.
The net effect of foreign currency forward contracts in the results of operations is shown in the following table:
| Year Ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |
| Net (gain) loss from derivatives not designated as hedging instruments | $(2) | $13 | $12 |
Kodak hadno derivatives designated as hedging instruments for the years ended December 31,2025 and 2024. Kodak’s derivative counterparties are high-quality investment or commercial banks with significant experience with such instruments. Kodak manages exposure to counterparty credit risk by requiring specific minimum credit standards and diversification of counterparties. Kodak has procedures to monitor the credit exposure amounts. The maximum credit exposure at December 31, 2025 was not significant to Kodak.
In the event of a default under the Company’s credit agreements, or a default under any derivative contract or similar obligation of Kodak, subject to certain minimum thresholds, the derivative counterparties would have the right, although not the obligation, to require immediate settlement of some or all open derivative contracts at their then-current fair value, but with liability positions netted against asset positions with the same counterparty.
Fair Value
Fair values of Kodak’s foreign currency forward contracts are determined using observable inputs (Level 2 fair value measurements) and are based on the present value of expected future cash flows (an income approach valuation technique) considering the risks involved and using discount rates appropriate for the duration of the contracts. The gross fair value of foreign currency forward contracts in an asset position are reported in Other current assets and the gross fair value of foreign currency forward contracts in a liability position are reported in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The gross fair value of foreign currency forward contracts in an asset position as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was less than $1 million and $0 million, respectively. The gross fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts in a liability position as of December 31,2025 and 2024 was less than $1 million and $3 million, respectively.
The fair values of long-term borrowings were $151 million and $436 million at December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. Fair values of long-term borrowings (Level 2 fair value measurements) are determined by reference to quoted market prices, if available, or by pricing models based on the value of related cash flows discounted at current market interest rates.
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized based on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2025.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and the current portion of long-term borrowings approximate their fair values for both December 31, 2025 and 2024.

| Other long-term liabilities | $(28) | $(24) |
| Net deferred tax liabilities | $(28) | $(24) |
The decrease in net deferred tax assets and net deferred tax liabilities during the period was primarily associated with the utilization of such items in connection with the completed reversion of the KRIP pension plan to minimize income taxes upon such reversion.
Upon reversion, certain previously unrecognized pension and postretirement liabilities were recognized for tax purposes, contributing to an increase in current taxable income and related current tax liabilities. In addition, as reflected in the Company’s effective tax rate, nondeductible U.S. federal excise taxes associated with the reversion resulted in higher current tax expense and current tax liabilities. Domestic net operating losses and other previously disallowed deferred tax assets were utilized to substantially offset these current tax liabilities, resulting in minimal cash tax requirements for the period. Accordingly, the valuation allowance previously recorded against the related net operating loss and other previously suspended deferred tax assets that were utilized was released.
As of December 31, 2025, Kodak had available domestic federal and statenet operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $873 million and $1,033 million, respectively, and foreign NOL carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $589 million. Approximately $1,043 million of these NOLs have an indefinite carryforward period, including $63 million of U.S interest carryforward. The remaining $1,452 million that do not have an indefinite carryforward period expire between the years 2026 and 2044. Kodak also had foreign tax and investment tax credit carryforwards of $37 million and $17 million, respectively, which expire between 2026 and 2040. A total of $18 million of the foreign tax credit carryforwards will expire in 2026 if left unutilized. If written off, these tax attributes are expected to be fully offset by a corresponding decrease in Kodak's valuation allowance, resulting in no net tax provision.
As of December 31, 2025, approximately $97 million of unused foreign tax credits expired and were written off. The write-off of these tax attributes was fully offset by a corresponding reduction in Kodak’s valuation allowance, which resulted in no net tax provision.
As of December 31, 2025, Kodak had available $11 million of tax credits related to its research and development activities. These credits expire between 2034 and 2045. A full valuation allowance has been recorded on these credits.
Kodak’s ability to utilize its U.S. NOLs and tax credits may be subject to limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 382 limits the utilization of NOLs in the event of significant changes in the stock ownership of the Company. An ownership change occurs if, among other things, the aggregate ownership of stockholders owning five percent of Kodak’s stock increases by more than 50 percentage points over athree-year rolling period. An ownership change can also occur by other events, such as the sale of Kodak shares that are owned by its 5% shareholders. Future transactions, when combined with reported transactions within the testing period could aggregate to an ownership change during the testing period in excess of 50 percentage points.
Kodak intends to repatriate its offshore earnings when prudent. Accordingly, it recorded deferred tax liabilities of $15 million for potential taxes on undistributed earnings as of both December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. These taxes are primarily attributable to foreign withholding taxes.
Kodak’s valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 was $589 million. Of this amount, $267 million was attributable to Kodak’s net deferred tax assets outside the U.S. of $258 million, and $322 million related to Kodak’s net deferred tax assets in the U.S. of $303 million, for which Kodak believes it is not more likely than not that the assets will be realized.
Kodak’s valuation allowance as of December 31, 2024 was $671 million. Of this amount, $259 million was attributable to Kodak’s net deferred tax assets outside the U.S. of $251 million, and $412 million related to Kodak’s net deferred tax assets in the U.S. of $396 million, for which Kodak believes it is not more likely than not that the assets will be realized.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. While the OBBBA did not have a material impact on Kodak's effective tax rate in 2025, there was a beneficial impact to Kodak’s current cash taxes related in part, to the immediate expensing of certain qualified domestic research expenses.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of Kodak’s liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
| Year Ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |
| Balance as of January 1 | $2 | $2 | $3 |
| Tax positions related to the current year: | |||
| Additions | — | 1 | — |
| Tax positions related to prior years: | |||
| Additions | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Reductions | — | (2) | (1) |
| Settlements with taxing jurisdictions | — | — | (1) |
| Balance as of December 31 | $3 | $2 | $2 |
Kodak’s policy is to recog nize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as a component of its provision for income taxes. Kodak had approximately $12 million, $11 million and $10 million of interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax benefits accrued as of December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
Kodak had uncertain tax benefits of approximately $16 million, $14 million and $13 million as of December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively, that, if recognized, would affect the effective income tax rate. Kodak has classified certain income tax liabilities as current or noncurrent based on management’s estimate of when these liabilities will be settled. The current income tax liabilities are recorded in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Noncurrent income tax liabilities are recorded in Other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
It is reasonably possible that the liability associated with Kodak’s unrecognized tax benefits will increase or decrease within the next twelve months. These changes may be the result of settling ongoing audits or the expiration of statutes of limitations. Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.
Although management believes that adequate provision has been made for such issues, there is the possibility that the ultimate resolution of such issues could have an adverse effect on the earnings of Kodak. Conversely, if these issues are resolved favorably in the future, the related provision would be reduced, thus having a positive impact on earnings.
Kodak is subject to taxation and files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in many state and foreign jurisdictions. Kodak has substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2020 and state income tax matters for years through 2017 with the respective tax authorities. With respect to countries outside the U.S., Kodak has substantially concluded all material foreign income tax matters through 2013 with respective foreign tax jurisdiction authorities.
NOTE 19: RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND OTHER
Kodak recognizes the need to continually rationalize its workforce and streamline its operations in the face of ongoing business and economic changes. Charges for restructuring initiatives are recorded in the period in which Kodak commits to a formalized restructuring plan, or executes the specific actions contemplated by the plan and all criteria for liability recognition under the applicable accounting guidance have been met.
The activity incurred in relation to restructuring programs during the three years ended December 31,2025 were as follows:
| Inventory | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Severance · Exit Costs · Write- | ||||
| (in millions) | Reserve (1) | Reserve (1) | downs (1) | Total |
| Balance as of December 31, 2022 | $2 | $5 | $— | $7 |
| Charges | 8 | (1) | 3 | 10 |
| Utilization/cash payments | (6) | (3) | (3) | (12) |
| Balance as of December 31, 2023 | 4 | 1 | — | 5 |

| Other adjustments & reclasses (3) | (1) | — | — | (1) |
| Balance as of December 31, 2025 | $13 | $2 | $— | $15 |
(1)
The severance and exit costs reserves require the outlay of cash. Inventory write-downs are non-cash items.
(2)
The $1 million in 2024 represented severance charges funded from pension plan assets, which were reclassified to Pension and other postretirement liabilities.
(3)
The $1 million in 2025 represents $2 million of severance charges funded from pension plan assets, which were reclassified to Pension and other postretirement liabilities, partially offset by $1 million of foreign currency translation adjustments.
2023 Activity
Restructuring actions taken in 2023 were initiated to reduce Kodak’s cost structure as part of its commitment to drive sustainable profitability and included actions to complete the process of ceasing manufacturing of the EPS equipment products as well as various targeted reductions in manufacturing, service, sales and administrative functions.
As a result of these actions, for the year ended December 31, 2023, Kodak recorded $10 million of charges of which $7 million were reported as Restructuring costs and other and $3 million were reported as Cost of revenues in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The 2023 severance costs related to the elimination of approximately 130 positions, including approximately 50 administrative and 80 manufacturing/service positions. The geographic composition of these positions included approximately 20 in the U.S. and Canada and 110 throughout the rest of the world.
2024 Activity
Restructuring actions taken in 2024 were initiated to reduce Kodak’s cost structure as part of its commitment to drive sustainable profitability and included various targeted reductions in manufacturing, service, sales, administrative, and research and development functions.
As a result of these actions, for the year ended December 31, 2024, Kodak recorded $8 million of charges which were reported as Restructuring costs and other in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The 2024 severance costs related to the elimination of approximately 135 positions, including approximately 55 administrative,75 manufacturing/service and 5 research and development positions. The geographic composition of these positions included approximately 70 in the U.S. and Canada and 65 throughout the rest of the world.
2025 Activity
Restructuring actions taken in 2025 were initiated to reduce Kodak’s cost structure as part of its commitment to drive sustainable profitability and included various targeted reductions in manufacturing, service, sales, administrative, and research and development functions.
As a result of these actions, for the year ended December 31, 2025, Kodak recorded $21 million of charges of which $20 million were reported as Restructuring costs and other and $1 million were reported as Costs of revenues in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The 2025 severance costs related to the elimination of approximately 280 positions, including approximately 60 administrative,165 manufacturing/service and 55 research and development positions. The geographic composition of these positions included approximately 130 in the U.S. and Canada and 150 throughout the rest of the world.
As a result of these initiatives, the majority of the severance liabilities as of December 31, 2025 will be paid during periods through the end of 2026. The $2 million exit cost reserve relates to a liability for which timing of the payment is uncertain.
NOTE 20: RETIREMENT PLANS
On January 21, 2025, the Board of Directors of Kodak approved the termination of KRIP, effective March 31, 2025, and no further benefits were accrued under KRIP following this date. In addition, the Board of Directors approved a defined benefit retirement plan (the “Kodak Cash Balance Plan”) as a replacement for KRIP which became effective on March 1, 2025 for new hires and on April 1, 2025 for current employees. The Kodak Cash Balance Plan credits employees’ hypothetical accounts with an amount equal to a specified percentage of their pay based on employee classification, plus an interest crediting rate based on the 30-year treasury bond rate.
On October 21, 2025, the annuity obligations with respect to all KRIP annuitants (approximately 27,000 participants and beneficiaries) representing approximately $1.8 billion of pension obligation was transferred to Metropolitan Tower Life Insurance Company through the purchase of a group annuity contract, the premium for which was funded directly and solely by the assets of KRIP. On October 1, 2025, KRIP settled approximately $76 million of pension obligations through lump-sum payments to deferred vested participants and on October 31, 2025, KRIP settled approximately $157 million of pension obligations through lump-sum payments to active participants. On November 26, 2025, KRIP transferred its sole remaining liabilities and associated cash of approximately $13 million for missing participants to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation missing program. As a result, all pension obligations under KRIP had been fully settled and the excess pension assets of $1.023 billion (the "Reversion Assets") as of November 26, 2025 (the "Reversion Date") reverted to the Company.
The Reversion Assets were comprised of cash of $614 million and investment assets valued at $409 million. The Company directed $5 million of cash and $251 million of investment assets to the Kodak Cash Balance Plan which represented 25% of the Reversion Assets. The remaining cash of $609 million and investments valued at $158 million were distributed to Company. Refer to Note 6, “Other Current Assets” for additional information on investment assets transferred to the Company, Note 9, “Debt and Credit Facilities” for repayment of Term Loans from the cash proceeds from the KRIP reversion and Note 17 “Other Charges (Income) for additional information on the payment of excise tax.
Kodak concluded that it was probable that the criteria for settlement accounting for KRIP would be met in 2025 as the projected cost of all settlements would exceed the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost for the year. As a result, Kodak applied settlement accounting and remeasured KRIP for each of the first three quarterly periods in 2025 and as of the Reversion Date. As KRIP’s pension obligations were fully settled on the Reversion Date, Kodak recorded a settlement gain of $66 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 which represented the recognition of the remaining unrealized amounts for KRIP that were included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity.
The $256 million of Reversion Assets for the Kodak Cash Balance Plan was transferred to an irrevocable trust fund. Assets in the trust fund are held for the sole benefit of participating employees. The funding policy for the Kodak Cash Balance Plan is to contribute amounts sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements as determined by employee benefit and tax laws plus any additional amounts the Company determines to be appropriate. The projected benefit obligation for the U.S. Plan was measured using actuarial techniques that incorporate management’s assumption for the discount rate, as well as other assumptions.
Prior to March 31, 2025, substantially all U.S. employees were covered by KRIP. Effective January 1, 2015, the KRIP was amended to provide that all participants accrue benefits under a single, revised cash balance formula under which the benefits were substantially the same as those established under the Kodak Cash Balance Plan.
Many subsidiaries and branches operating outside the U.S. have defined benefit retirement plans covering substantially all employees. Contributions by Kodak for these plans are typically deposited under government or other fiduciary-type arrangements. Retirement benefits are generally based on contractual agreements that provide for benefit formulas using years of service and/or compensation prior to retirement. The actuarial assumptions used for these plans, which include the discount rate, expected return on plan assets (for funded plans) as well as other assumptions, reflect the diverse economic environments within the various countries in which Kodak operates.
Information on the major U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans is presented below. The information for the U.S. for 2024 relates entirely to KRIP while the 2025 information also includes the Kodak Cash Balance Plan. The composition of the major Non-U.S. plans may vary from year to year. If the major Non-U.S. plan composition changes, prior year data is conformed to ensure comparability. There were no changes in the composition of major Non-U.S. plans from the prior year.
Obligations and Funded Status
The measurement date used to determine the pension obligation for all funded and unfunded U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit plans is December 31.

The $2,067 million of plan settlements related to the full settlement of the KRIP obligations due to the plan termination as discussed above.
An actuarial gain of $25 million related to the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") of the U.S plans was recognized in 2025, including gains of $42 million due to favorable mortality and other demographic assumptions and $34 million primarily due to favorable terms obtained to purchase annuities to settle KRIP’s obligations, partially offset by losses of $51 million due to discount rate decreases. In 2024, a PBO actuarial gain of $56 million was recognized for the U.S. Plan primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate ($83 million), partially offset by a loss associated with unfavorable demographic experience ($22 million), as well as a loss associated with an increase in the cash balance interest crediting rate ($5 million). The Non-U.S. PBO actuarial gain of $21 million recognized in 2025 was driven by increases in discount rates ($17 million) and lower inflation and salary scale assumptions ($4 million). The Non-U.S. PBO actuarial gain of $12 million recognized in 2024 was driven by lower inflation assumptions ($8 million), increases in discount rates ($1 million) and favorable demographic experience ($3 million).
The actual return on plan assets for the U.S. plans was $149 million for the year ended December 31,2025, which was in line with the expected return. The actual return on plan assets for the year ended December 31, 2024 was a loss of $149 million, which was driven by the loss on the sale of KRIP Illiquid Assets of $238 million partially offset by strong performance of debt securities and hedge funds.
The $767 million of employer reversion represents the $609 million of cash and $158 million of investment assets reverted to the Company following the KRIP termination as discussed above.
On November 20, 2024, the Kodak Retirement Income Plan Trust (the “Trust”), in its capacity as holder of assets for the benefit of KRIP, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mastercard Foundation (the “Buyer”) related to the sale of a portion of KRIP's private equity and certain other illiquid investments (collectively, "KRIP Illiquid Assets"). Pursuant to the Agreement, on December 31, 2024, the Trust sold to the Buyer (the “Mastercard Closing”) KRIP Illiquid Assets for a cash purchase price of $510 million, which was received at the Mastercard Closing.
The weighted-average assumptions used to determine the benefit obligation amounts for all major funded and unfunded U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit plans were as follows:

| Net pension (income) expense | $(110) | $1 | $(150) | $(5) | $(148) | $4 |
(1)
The special termination benefits were incurred as a result of Kodak’s restructuring actions and, therefore, have been included in Restructuring costs and other in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for those periods.
(2)
Kodak recognized a gain of $66 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a result of all pension obligations under KRIP being fully settled.
The weighted-average assumptions used to determine net pension (income) expense for all the major funded and unfunded U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit plans were as follows:
| Year Ended December 31, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | ||||
| U.S. | Non-U.S. | U.S. | Non-U.S. | U.S. | Non-U.S. | |
| Effective rate for service cost | 5.37% | 3.29% | 4.88% | 3.11% | 5.04% | 3.44% |
| Effective rate for interest cost | 5.18% | 3.34% | 4.85% | 3.43% | 5.02% | 3.80% |
| Salary increase rate | 1.00% | 2.29% | 1.50% | 2.46% | 1.00% | 2.71% |
| Expected rate of return on plan assets | 5.22% | 4.33% | 7.10% | 3.93% | 7.50% | 4.16% |
| Interest crediting rate for cash balance plan | 4.04% | NA | 4.00% | NA | 3.85% | NA |
The expected return on plan assets (“EROA”) is a long-term rate of return which is based on a combination of formal asset and liability studies that include forward-looking return expectations given the current asset allocation.
Kodak uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows.
Plan Asset Investment Strategy
The investment strategy underlying the asset allocation for the pension assets is to achieve an optimal return on assets with an acceptable level of risk while providing for the long-term liabilities and maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay current benefits and other cash obligations of the plans. This is primarily achieved by investing in a broad portfolio constructed of various asset classes including equity, debt, real assets, hedge funds and cash.
Every three years, or when market conditions have changed materially, each of Kodak’s major pension plans will undertake an asset allocation or asset and liability modeling study. The asset allocation and expected return on the plans’ assets are individually set to provide for benefits and other cash obligations within each country’s legal investment constraints.
Actual allocations may vary from the target asset allocations due to market value fluctuations, the length of time it takes to implement changes in strategy, and the timing of cash contributions and cash requirements of the plans. The asset allocations are monitored and are rebalanced in accordance with the policy set forth for each plan.
Plan Asset Risk Management
Kodak evaluates its defined benefit plans’ asset portfolios for the existence of significant concentrations of risk. Types of concentrations that are evaluated include, but are not limited to, investment concentrations in a single entity, type of industry, foreign country, individual fund and single investment manager. As a result of the settlement of KRIP in 2025, there were no significant concentrations of risk associated with plan assets as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the most significant concentrations of risk were with two investment management firms (Loomis Sayles and Income Research + Management) which each managed 14% of KRIP’s plan assets.
The Company’s weighted-average asset allocations for its major U.S. defined benefit pension plan by asset category, are as follows:
| As of December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 Target (1) | |
| Asset Category | |||
| Debt securities | 0% | 42% | 0-70% |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 3% | 31% | 0-10% |
| Private equity | 61% | 5% | 0-90% |
| Hedge funds | 36% | 22% | 0-40% |
| Total | 100% | 100% | |

The 2025 target asset allocation represents the Kodak Cash Balance Plan. Thelong-term target asset allocation target is 45% public debt,30% public equity,25% alternatives (hedge funds / real assets).
Kodak’s weighted-average asset allocations for its major Non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans by asset category, are as follows:
| As of December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 Target | |
| Asset Category | |||
| Equity securities | 5% | 6% | 0-10% |

| Private equity | 6% | 6% | 0-10% |
| Insurance contracts | 60% | 60% | 25-75% |
| Total | 100% | 100% | |
Derivative Investments
KRIP’s derivative instruments consisted primarily of direct investments in exchange traded futures contracts. As of December 31, 2024, the notional amount for exchange traded futures contracts was approximately $574 million. Realized gains and losses from these derivative investments are included in the actual return on plan assets balance. The total fair value of these derivative instruments at December 31, 2024 was $(5) million which represents the unrealized losses and gains on these contracts and is included in the derivative line items in the table of plan assets below. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan was required to maintain cash on deposit to collateralize its obligations under its futures contracts. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $5 million was on deposit in cash and Treasury bills to fulfill these requirements and is included in the cash and cash equivalents asset class in the table below. The Kodak Cash Balance Plan does not use derivative instruments as part of its investment strategy.
Fair Value Measurements
Kodak’s plan assets are accounted for at fair value and are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement, with the exception of investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share expedient. Kodak’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value of assets and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The fair value of Kodak’s U.S. defined benefit pension plan assets at December 31,2025 and 2024 by asset class is presented in the tables below:

Assets not utilizing the NAV per share expedient are valued as follows:
(1)
Cash and cash equivalents are primarily held in short term investment funds and are used for benefit and fee payments
(2)
Debt securities are valued using a market-based pricing model that utilizes standard valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs, including market prices for similar assets.
(3)
Net receivables as of December 31,2024 represent amounts associated with hedge fund redemptions, net of payables for purchases of investment and receivables associated with the sale of KRIP Illiquid Assets.
Investments Valued at NAV
Kodak performs an investment-by-investment analysis to determine if the investment meets the requirements to be measured at NAV. For investments with lagged pricing, Kodak uses the latest available net asset values and considers expected return and other relevant material events for the year-end valuation of these investments.
The total fair value, unfunded commitments and redemption provisions for the U.S. defined benefit pension plan’s investments valued at NAV are as follows:
| Investments Valued at NAV at December 31, 2025 | |||||||

Private equity investments are primarily comprised of direct limited partnerships and fund-of-fund investments that invest in distressed investments, venture capital, leveraged buyouts and special situations. Private equity investments are valued by the fund manager primarily based on independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models, cost, and comparable market transactions. The term of each fund is typically 10 or more years and the fund’s investors do not have an option to redeem their interest in the fund. The investors in the fund receive distributions through the liquidation of the underlying investments in the fund.
In 2024, based on the change in investment strategy designed to preserve and maximize the value of KRIP’s over-funding by reducing investment risk and improving the overall liquidity of KRIP, the U.S. Plan began liquidating its hedge fund investments. The hedge fund investments remaining at December 31, 2025 are in the process of redemption and are expected to be fully redeemed by the end of 2029.
Hedge funds are typically valued by each fund’s third-party fund administrator based upon the valuation of the underlying securities and instruments, primarily by applying a market or income valuation methodology as appropriate depending on the specific type of security or instrument held.
The tables below summarize Kodak’s U.S. Plan investments in hedge funds by type for those investments valued at NAV:

Hedge funds typically have the right to restrict redemption requests beyond Kodak’s control. In these cases, redemptions may extend beyond the general redemption terms outlined in the table above.
Liquidity
Approximately 61% of total U.S. Plan assets as of December 31, 2025 are invested in private equity funds, where the U.S. Plan receives distributions through the liquidation of the underlying investments. Liquidity of U.S. Plan assets is managed to minimize the likelihood that these investments would need to be sold to cover benefit payments, derivative losses, or any other short-term need.
The total unfunded commitments, if and when they are called over the term of each investment, are expected to be funded by the available liquidity in the U.S. Plan consistent with historical experience.

NOTE 22: EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share calculations include any dilutive effect of potential common shares. In periods with a net loss available to common shareholders, diluted earnings per share are calculated using weighted-average basic shares for that period, as utilizing diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share.
A reconciliation of the amounts used to calculate basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 follows:

| Employee stock options | — | 1.1 | 0.7 |
| Series B Preferred Stock | — | 9.5 | 9.5 |
| Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted | 87.0 | 92.3 | 90.5 |
As a result of the net loss available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025, Kodak calculated diluted earnings per share using weighed-average basic shares outstanding. If Kodak had reported earnings available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025, the calculation of diluted earnings per share would have included the assumed vesting of 1.6 million unvested restricted stock units and the assumed exercise of 1.4 million stock options.
The computation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2025 excluded the impact of (1) the assumed conversion of 1.0 million shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (2) the assumed exercise of 1.7 million outstanding employee stock options and (3) the assumed vesting of 0.2 million unvested restricted stock units because the effects would have been anti-dilutive.
The computation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2024 excluded the impact of (1) the assumed conversion of 1.2 million shares of Series C Preferred Stock, (2) the assumed exercise of 2.6 million outstanding employee stock options and (3) the assumed vesting of 0.2 million unvested restricted stock units because the effects would have been anti-dilutive.
The computation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2023 excluded the impact of (1) the assumed conversion of 1.1 million shares of Series C Preferred Stock and (2) the assumed exercise of 3.9 million outstanding employee stock options because they would have been anti-dilutive.
NOTE 23: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Kodak’s stock incentive plan is the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as restated and further amended, the “2013 Plan”). The 2013 Plan is administered by the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors.
Officers, directors and employees of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are eligible to receive awards. Stock options are generally non-qualified, are at exercise prices equal to or greater than the closing price of Kodak’s stock on the date of grant and expire seven years orten years after the grant date. Stock-based compensation awards granted under Kodak’s stock incentive plan are generally subject to athree-year vesting period from the date of grant, or a later date as determined by the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee. Awards are subject to settlement in newly-issued shares of common stock. Unless sooner terminated by the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee, no awards may be granted under the 2013 Plan after May 15, 2034.
The maximum number of shares of common stock available for grant under the 2013 Plan is 20.0 million. For stock option grants awarded on or prior to May 19, 2021, for the number of shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan, a stock option counts as a fraction of a share, based on the fair market value of the stock option relative to the closing stock price on the date of grant. For stock option awards granted after May 19, 2021, a stock option counts as one share. Each restricted stock unit and restricted stock award counts as one share. The total number of shares of common stock registered for issuance under the 2013 Plan is approximately 13.5 million. In addition, under the 2013 Plan, the maximum number of shares available for the grant of incentive stock options is 2.0 million shares. The maximum number of shares as to which stock options or stock appreciation rights may be granted to any one person under the 2013 Plan in any calendar year is 2.5 million shares.
The maximum number of awards that may be granted to any non-employee director under the 2013 Plan in any calendar year may not exceed a number of awards with a grant date fair value of $450,000, computed as of the grant date.
Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service or performance period for each separately vesting tranche of the award and is adjusted for actual forfeitures before vesting. Kodak assesses the likelihood that performance-based shares will be earned based on the probability of meeting the performance criteria. For those performance-based awards that are deemed probable of achievement, expense is recorded, and for those awards that are deemed not probable of achievement, no expense is recorded. Kodak assesses the probability of achievement each quarter.
Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Stock awards
Restricted stock units and restricted stock awards are payable in shares of the Company common stock upon vesting. The fair value of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards without a market condition is based on the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The following inputs were used for restricted stock units issued in 2023 with a market condition (there wereno restricted stock units issued in 2025 or 2024 with a market condition):
| Year Ended | |
|---|---|
| December 31, | |
| Fair value of restricted stock units granted | $3.03 |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.80% |
| Term (in years) | 3.0 |
| Volatility | 60% |
| Weighted-average expected dividend yield | 0.00% |
Compensation cost related to restricted stock units and restricted stock awards was $5 million, $6 million and $4 million for the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The income tax benefit from restricted stock vestings was $2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $1 million for both of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The weighted average grant date fair value of restricted stock units and awards granted for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $6.71, $5.29 and $3.90, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock units and awards that vested was $6 million, $8 million and $4 million for the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2025, there was $5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.6 years.
The following table summarizes information about unvested restricted stock unit and award activity for the year ended December 31, 2025:
| RestrictedStockUnits/Awards | Weighted-AverageGrant DateFair Values | |
|---|---|---|
| Outstanding on December 31, 2024 | 1,897,700 | $4.36 |
| Granted | 1,006,127 | $6.71 |
| Vested | 1,098,627 | $4.76 |
| Forfeited | 30,000 | $3.31 |
| Outstanding on December 31, 2025 | 1,775,200 |
In addition to the outstanding unvested restricted stock units and awards per the above table, there are also 620,797 vested restricted stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2025 with a weighted average grant date fair value of $6.03.

| Expected to vest December 31, 2025 | 3,874,869 | $8.32 | 2.43 | $8 |
The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pretax intrinsic value that option holders would have received had all option holders exercised their options on the last trading day of the year. The aggregate intrinsic value is the difference between the Kodak closing stock price on the last trading day of the year and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options. The intrinsic values of options outstanding, exercisable or expected to vest as of December 31, 2025 were each $8 million.
There wereno options granted in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $2.87. The total fair value of options that vested during both the years ended December 31,2025 and 2024 was less than $1 million and for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $1 million.
Compensation cost related to stock options for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was less than $1 million and for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $3 million.
As of December 31, 2025, there was less than $1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options, which will be recognized over a period of less than 1 year.
There were 2 million options exercised in the year ended December 31, 2025, and less than 1 million options exercised in both of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The income tax benefit from stock options exercised was $3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and less than $1 million for both of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Kodak utilizes the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock options that do not have a market condition for award vesting and the lattice-based method to estimate the fair value of stock options with a market condition for award vesting.
The expected term of options granted is the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding and is calculated using a simplified method based on the option’s vesting period and original contractual term. The Company uses the historical volatility of the Company’s stock to estimate expected volatility. The risk-free rate was based on the yield on U.S. Treasury notes with a term equal to the option’s expected term.
The following inputs were used for the valuation of stock option grants issued without a market condition in the year ended December 31,2023 (there were no stock option grants issued in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024):
| Year Ended | |
|---|---|
| December 31, | |
| Weighted-average fair value of options granted | $3.48 |
| Weighted-average risk-free interest rate | 3.75% |
| Expected option lives (in years) | 4.5 |
| Weighted-average volatility | 120% |
| Expected dividend yield | 0% |
The following inputs were used in the lattice-based valuation of stock option grants issued with a market condition in 2023:
| Year Ended | |
|---|---|
| December 31, | |
| Fair value of options granted | $2.25 |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.80% |
| Term (in years) | 3.0 |
| Volatility | 60% |
| Weighted-average expected dividend yield | 0.00% |
On February 16, 2023, the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors approved extending the expiration dates for non-qualified stock options awarded between 2016 and 2020 to 21 currently active employees and directors. No other terms were modified. The contractual terms were extended from approximately seven years to approximately ten years. In November 2023 the extended expiration date of certain options was rescinded. The change in the terms of the awards was accounted for as a modification. As a result of the modification, Kodak recognized $2 millionof incremental compensation expense inthe year-ended 2023, reflecting the incremental fair value of the 3.5 million options that were modified over the fair value of the original options immediately before the modification. The fair value of the options was calculated using a binomial lattice-based valuation model. The key assumptions used in the fair value calculations were:
| Option Award | ||
|---|---|---|
| Modifications | ||
| Immediately Before | Immediately After | |
| Range of fair values | 0.000 - 2.1414 | 1.322 - 2.2424 |

| Range of remaining contractual terms (in years) | 0.37 - 4.25 | 3.37 - 7.25 |
| Range of weighted volatilities | 66.96% - 103.39% | 66.96% - 103.39% |
| Expected dividend yield | 0.00% | 0.00% |
| Early exercise model | 2.5 | 2.5 |
| Number of times steps | 500 | 500 |
On February 26, 2021 James V. Continenza, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kodak, and the Company entered into an Executive Chairman and CEO Agreement, as amended on November 29, 2023 and November 30, 2022 (the “Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement is effective for a three-year period ending on February 26, 2027. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Continenza will not have the right to exercise any stock options granted to him in February 2019 or July 2020 to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance of the Company’s common stock resulting from such exercise, Mr. Continenza (together with his affiliates and any person acting as a group), would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall cease and be of no further force and effect upon a Change of Control (as such term is defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan). The restrictions on the exercisability of previous stock option awards were a modification of the original awards. As the February 2019 and July 2020 stock options were fully vested prior to the modification date and there wasno incremental value provided in the modification, no additional compensation expense was recognized.

NOTE 27: SEGMENT INFORMATION
Kodak hasthree reportable segments: Print, Advanced Materials and Chemicals and Brand. Kodak’s reportable segments are based on a combination of factors that the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses to evaluate and manage the business operations, including but not limited to, Kodak’s organizational structure, customer base, markets, products and services and related technologies. Kodak does not aggregate operating segments. A description of Kodak’s reportable segments follows.
Print: The Print segment is comprised offour lines of business, the Prepress Solutions business: the Prosper business, the Software business and the Electrophotographic Printing Solutions business.
Advanced Materials and Chemicals: The Advanced Materials and Chemicals segment is comprised of five lines of business: the Industrial Film and Chemicals business, the Motion Picture business, the Pharmaceuticals business, the Advanced Materials and Functional Printing business and the IP Licensing and Analytical Services business.
Brand: The Brand segment contains the brand licensing business.
The balance of Kodak’s continuing operations, which do not meet the criteria of a reportable segment, are reported in All Other revenues and All Other Operational EBITDA, and primarily represent the operations of EBP, a more than 1,200 acre technology center and industrial complex.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1. There are no intersegment sales between the segments.
Kodak’s CODM is the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Kodak’s segment measure of profit and loss is an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Operational EBITDA”). Operational EBITDA represents the consolidated (loss) earnings from continuing operations excluding the provision for income taxes; non-service cost components of pension and other postemployment benefits (“OPEB”) income; depreciation and amortization expense; restructuring costs and other; stock-based compensation expense; consulting and other costs; idle costs; interest expense; loss on early extinguishment of debt; other operating (expense) income, net and other (charges) income, net.
The CODM uses Operational EBITDA in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources for each segment predominantly through the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM evaluates Operational EBITDA budget-to-actual variances, changes in Operational EBITDA from prior periods and when comparing the results of each segment with one another.
Segment financial information is shown below. Asset information by reportable segment is not disclosed below as this information is not regularly provided to or used by the CODM in assessing performance and allocating resources.
