In addition, selling and administrative costs increased $9 million primarily related to investments in information technology systems and organizational structure to drive further operational efficiencies, as well as costs associated with the drupa trade show and certain litigation matters. The costs increases were partially offset by a $1 million decline in equity compensation costs in the current year to date period.

Current report

Kodak, in conjunction with the Kodak Retirement Income Plan Committee (“KRIP Committee”), continues to implement various actions to preserve and maximize the value of KRIP’s over-funding by reducing investment risk and improving the overall liquidity of KRIP. During the first quarter of 2024, the KRIP Committee outsourced the investment management of the plan to NEPC, LLC. Effective April 1, 2024, the KRIP Committee approved an updated investment policy that modified the target asset allocations by allocating a greater portion of KRIP’s assets to lower risk investments as well as interest rate hedging investments which aim to manage the liability interest rate risk associated with KRIP. As contemplated by the updated investment policy, NEPC subsequently initiated the redemption of a substantial majority of KRIP’s hedge fund investments and expanded its interest rate hedging strategy with a portion of those proceeds. During the second quarter of 2024, NEPC engaged a third-party broker to explore strategic options, including the potential secondary sale of KRIP’s private equity and certain other illiquid investments.

Current report

There can be no assurances that Kodak will receive excess assets from KRIP or concerning the timing or amount of any such receipt. All liabilities of KRIP must be satisfied before any excess assets revert to Kodak, and any amounts that ultimately revert to Kodak will depend on the amount of KRIP’s liabilities and the future investment performance and value of its assets. Also, any amount received will be subject to material excise tax and other obligations. To the extent Kodak receives net proceeds from excess KRIP assets, Kodak must use such proceeds to pay down the Term Loans to defined levels pursuant to the Plan Reversion Proceeds provisions of the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement before such proceeds would be available for other purposes.

Previous wording

Kodak's products are sold and serviced in numerous countries across the globe with more than half of sales generated outside the U.S. Current global economic conditions remain highly volatile due to the uncertain and unpredictable macroeconomic environment, heightened levels of inflation, the war in Ukraine, the conflicts involving Israel, and other global events which impacted Kodak’s operations. Kodak is experiencing increased manufacturing costs due to volume declines for certain businesses and increased labor, material and distribution costs, as well as supply chain disruptions and shortages in materials and labor.

Previous wording

The Print segment is experiencing a slowdown in customer demand for plates that negatively impacted volume due to current global economic conditions and the impact of pricing actions. In addition to the pricing actions and customer-focused initiatives described above, Kodak has implemented supply chain and workforce optimization, productivity improvements and other cost savings activities. The combined actions have largely mitigated the impact of increased manufacturing costs. However, the potential worsening of economic conditions, continued increases in manufacturing costs due to volume declines and other costs without further price increases, could unfavorably impact this segment's operating results.

Previous wording

Following the cessation of U.S. plate manufacturing operations by Kodak’s key competitors, Kodak has faced increasing competition in the U.S. from low-priced plates imported from China and Japan. On September 28, 2023, Kodak filed petitions with the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission requesting relief from unfairly traded imports of plates from China and Japan in the form of the imposition of anti-dumping and/or countervailing duties on such imported plates. On November 15, 2023 the U.S. International Trade Commission determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of aluminum lithographic printing plates from China and Japan that are allegedly sold in the U.S. at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of China. The U.S. Department of Commerce has commenced investigations to determine dumping and subsidy margins against imports of plates manufactured in China and Japan. On February 27, 2024, the Commerce Department announced the preliminary findings in its countervailing duty investigation on imports of plates manufactured in China and imposed a provisional duty of 38.50% on practically all such plates. On April 26, 2024, the Commerce Department announced the preliminary findings in its anti-dumping duty investigation on imports of plates manufactured in China and Japan. As a result of the investigation provisional duties will be imposed on U.S. imports of plates as follows: (i) 38.56% on such plates manufactured in China by Fuji and 107.61% on such plates manufactured in China by other entities, and (ii) 87.81% on such plates manufactured in Japan. The final duty determinations are due to be announced by the Commerce Department in the third quarter of 2024, and the final injury determination is due to be made by the U.S. International Trade Commission in the fourth quarter of 2024. There can be no assurance that the provisional countervailing duties will become final or that Kodak will otherwise obtain the relief sought or, if relief is obtained, that the final rates of duties that may be imposed on such imported plates will provide effective relief.

Previous wording

The Company’s Hong Kong subsidiary has an $73 million inter-company loan from one of the Company’s Chinese subsidiaries with a maturity date of November 16, 2024, the proceeds of which were in turn loaned to the Company. The inter-company loan terms provide for it to be repaid over two years in four equal $20 million installments, the first of which was due by November 16, 2023 with the remaining installments due in 2024. The Company paid $2 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $5 million in the second quarter of 2024 towards the first $20 million installment and is evaluating alternatives for the remaining installments which would allow Kodak and its subsidiaries to perform their obligations to each other while minimizing the impact on U.S. liquidity taking into account requirements imposed by Chinese regulators. Any amounts repaid to the Chinese subsidiary may not be able to be loaned, repatriated or otherwise moved back to the U.S., in which case the Company’s U.S. liquidity would be reduced. If the inter-company loan is not extended, refinanced or amended and the Hong Kong subsidiary does not pay any of the individual installments by the end of the 30-day grace period following notice by the Chinese subsidiary after a failure to pay on the due date of such installment, the Hong Kong subsidiary would default on the inter-company loan. The Chinese subsidiary has not issued notice to the Hong Kong subsidiary based on the failure to make the first full installment payment.
