Summary
Kodak delivered a strong second quarter with revenue up 18% to $311 million and Operational EBITDA tripling to $36 million from $9 million a year earlier. The Advanced Materials & Chemicals segment led the way with 40% revenue growth and a $14 million EBITDA improvement, while the Print segment returned to profitability with an $8 million EBITDA swing.
Gross profit margin expanded 700 basis points to 26%, and the company posted $17 million in GAAP net income versus a $26 million loss in Q2 2025. This marks the fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year gains in revenue, gross profit, and Operational EBITDA.
Cash declined $47 million to $290 million, driven by $101 million in mandatory debt repayments and a $37 million inventory build tied to silver and aluminum commodities, partially offset by $87 million from pension asset redemptions. Management characterized the results as a turning point, stating Kodak now has the operational and financial leverage to shift from stabilization to growth, with plans to expand core businesses and accelerate R&D. For holders, the consistent profitability improvement and debt reduction are positive, though the cash decline and inventory build warrant monitoring in coming quarters to ensure the growth investments translate to sustained margin expansion.
