Results of Operations and Financial Condition - --------------------------------------------------------- On October 19, 2005, Eastman Kodak Company issued a press release and a supplemental financial discussion document describing its financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005. Copies of the press release and financial discussion document are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this report. Within the Company's third quarter 2005 press release and financial discussion document, the Company makes reference to certain non-GAAP financial measures including "Digital revenue", "Digital earnings", "Digital earnings excluding certain purchase accounting costs for KPG and Creo and operating results for Creo", "Free cash flow", "Operating cash flow" and "Investable cash flow", which have directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and to certain calculations that are based on non-GAAP financial measures, including "Days sales outstanding" and "Days supply in inventory." The Company believes that these measures represent important internal measures of performance. Accordingly, where these non-GAAP measures are provided, it is done so that investors have the same financial data that management uses with the belief that it will assist the investment community in properly assessing the underlying performance of the Company on a year-over-year and quarter-sequential basis. Whenever such information is presented, the Company has complied with the provisions of the rules under Regulation G and Item 2.02 of Form 8-K. The specific reasons, in addition to the reasons described above, why the Company's management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding Kodak's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are as follows: Digital revenue/Digital earnings - In the Company's earnings release for the second quarter of 2005 that was issued on July 20, 2005, the Company indicated that, due to the ongoing digital transformation, management would view the Company's performance based on the following three key metrics: digital revenue growth, digital earnings growth and the generation of cash. These three key metrics were reemphasized in the Company's investor presentation on September 28, 2005 and in the attached earnings release for the third quarter of 2005. Accordingly, these digital measures are presented so that investors have the same financial data that management uses with the belief that it will assist the investment community in properly assessing the underlying performance of the Company on a year-over-year and quarter-sequential basis as the Company undergoes this digital transformation. Digital earnings excluding certain purchase accounting costs for KPG and Creo and operating results for Creo - As the company's digital earnings projection for 2005 was provided in January of 2005 (the 2005 Digital Earnings Projection), the projection could not take into account the purchase accounting impacts relating to its second quarter 2005 acquisitions of KPG and Creo, the operating results of Creo and the third quarter 2005 reallocation of certain costs from the digital business to the traditional business. Accordingly, in the attached Press Release and Financial Discussion Document, the Company has included a measure of digital earnings which excludes certain KPG and Creo purchase accounting costs and Creo's third quarter operating results to provide a measure that is calculated on the same basis as the 2005 Digital Earnings Projection. The Company believes that this information is important to assist the investors' understanding of the Company's third quarter digital earnings performance as calculated on the same basis as the 2005 Digital Earnings Projection as adjusted for the reallocation of certain costs from the digital business to the traditional business. Free cash flow / Operating cash flow / Investable cash flow - The Company believes that the presentation of free cash flow, operating cash flow and investable cash flow is useful information to investors as they facilitate the comparison of cash flows between reporting periods. In addition, management utilizes these measures as tools to assess the Company's ability to repay debt and repurchase its own common stock, after it has satisfied its working capital needs, dividends, and funded capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments. The free cash flow measure equals net cash provided by continuing operations, as determined under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP) minus capital expenditures. The operating cash flow measure equals free cash flow plus proceeds from the sale of assets, minus acquisitions, debt assumed in acquisitions, investments in unconsolidated affiliates, and dividends. The investable cash flow measure equals operating cash flow excluding the impact of acquisitions and debt assumed in acquisitions, and forms the basis of internal management performance expectations and certain incentive compensation. Accordingly, the Company believes that the presentation of this information is useful to investors as it provides them with the same data as management uses to facilitate their assessment of the Company's cash position. Days sales outstanding (DSO) - The Company believes that the presentation of a DSO result that includes the impact of reclassifying rebates as an offset to receivables is useful information to investors, as this calculation is more reflective of the Company's receivables performance and cash collection efforts due to the fact that most customers reduce their actual cash payment to the Company by the amount of rebates owed to them. Days supply in inventory (DSI) - The Company believes that the presentation of a DSI result that is based on inventory before the LIFO reserve is useful information to investors, as this calculation is more reflective of the Company's actual inventory turns due to the fact that the inventory values in the calculation are based on current cost. The Company also believes that the presentation of a DSI result that is based on a cost of goods sold amount that excludes certain manufacturing-related costs that are considered to be unusual, or that occur infrequently, is useful information to investors, as it is more reflective of the Company's actual inventory performance.

The performance primarily reflects strong demand for the market-leading offerings from the company's Graphic Communications and consumer digital portfolio. On the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), the company reported a third-quarter loss of $1.029 billion, or $3.58 per share, largely stemming from a $900 million ($3.13 per share) non-cash charge to record a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in the U.S. This reserve was an accounting requirement resulting from the company's continuing losses in the U.S. created by the accelerated and extensive restructuring activity required by the decline in the traditional business. For the third quarter of 2005: -- Sales totaled $3.553 billion, an increase of 5% from $3.374 billion in the third quarter of 2004. Digital revenue totaled $1.888 billion, a 47% increase from $1.283 billion. Traditional revenue totaled $1.661 billion, a 20% decline from $2.085 billion. -- The GAAP net loss was $1.029 billion, or $3.58 per share, compared with GAAP earnings of $458 million, or $1.60 per share, in the year-ago period. -- The company's loss from continuing operations in the quarter, before income taxes, interest, and the net of other income and charges, was $103 million, compared with earnings from operations of $3 million in the year-ago quarter. -- Digital earnings were $10 million, compared with $6 million in the year-ago quarter. This includes the favorable impact of $18 million in the third quarter of reallocating certain costs from the digital business to the traditional business, as well as a $5 million charge for reducing the useful life of certain digital assets. To calculate a common basis of comparison with the company's full-year digital earnings projection, as adjusted for the two accounting changes cited, requires the exclusion of $44 million of costs associated with Creo's operating results and purchase accounting for the KPG and Creo acquisitions, as well as the exclusion of $12 million of in-process research and development credits. On this basis, digital earnings in the third quarter were $42 million, and they were greatly improved in September versus the first two months of the quarter. This supports the company's previously expressed view that the bulk of Kodak's digital earnings in 2005 will be generated in the last four months of the year. "In the third quarter, our digital revenue exceeded our traditional revenue for the first time on a quarterly basis, representing another milestone in our digital transformation," said Antonio M. Perez, Chief Executive Officer and President, Eastman Kodak Company. "As importantly, on the basis outlined above, our digital earnings were 3.5 times greater than in the year-ago quarter, and September's significant improvement increases our confidence for strong digital earnings in the fourth quarter. "We remain committed to the 2005 cash flow target presented at our Sept. 28 investor meeting," Perez said. "For the quarter, our cash flow performance was consistent with our expectations, our cash balance increased, and our debt decreased sequentially from the second quarter. We are delivering on the three key metrics by which we are managing the company: digital revenue growth, digital earnings growth and the generation of cash. "Within the business units, we continue to see widespread evidence of the success of our digital transformation," Perez said. "Our Graphic Communications Group continues to demonstrate strong growth, coming off a very successful Print 05 trade show in September. In our Health Group, operating margins in the quarter rebounded from a soft start earlier this year, led by solid sales of computed radiography systems. On the consumer side, we began shipping last month the groundbreaking EASYSHARE-ONE zoom digital camera, making Kodak the first company to bring a Wi-Fi consumer digital camera to market." Other third-quarter 2005 details: -- Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, totaled $370 million in the third quarter, compared with $411 million in the year-ago quarter. -- Gross Profit on a GAAP basis was 26.3%, down from 32.0%, primarily because of increased restructuring activity compared with the year-ago period. -- Selling, General and Administrative expenses were 18.9% of sales, up from 18.6%, primarily reflecting the additional costs incurred through the ownership of KPG and Creo. -- Debt decreased $158 million from the second-quarter level, to $3.563 billion as of Sept. 30. So far this year, debt has increased $1.242 billion, reflecting more than $1.5 billion relating to acquisitions. -- Kodak held $610 million in cash on its balance sheet as of Sept. 30, up from $553 million on June 30, and down from $1.255 billion at the end of 2004. The company expects its cash balance to exceed $1 billion by the end of 2005. "Even after paying down debt and spending more on restructuring, I am pleased with our ability to increase our cash balance from the previous quarter," said Robert H. Brust, Kodak's Chief Financial Officer. "We remain confident in our ability to generate cash, and we note that the $900 million charge involving deferred tax assets in the U.S. has no cash impact. What's more, the net deferred tax assets can be realized in the future. The write-down results from current and expected future losses in the U.S. created by our accelerated and extensive restructuring actions. As a result, management has concluded that a valuation allowance is required under U.S. accounting rules." Segment sales and results from continuing operations, before interest, taxes, and other income and charges (earnings from operations), are as follows: -- Digital & Film Imaging sales totaled $1.995 billion, down 16%. Earnings from operations for the segment were $108 million, compared with $230 million a year ago. Highlights for the quarter included a 48% increase in the sales of KODAK PICTURE MAKER kiosks and related media; a 45% increase in sales of home printing products and media, including KODAK EASYSHARE Printer Docks; and a 20% increase in consumer digital capture sales, which includes KODAK EASYSHARE cameras. -- Graphic Communications Group sales were $886 million, up 158%, largely reflecting the acquisition of KPG and Creo. Earnings from operations in the third quarter were $15 million, compared with a loss of $16 million in the year-ago quarter. -- Health Group sales were $635 million, down 1%. Earnings from operations for the segment were $90 million, compared with $106 million a year ago. Highlights included a 24% increase in digital capture systems, reflecting a rebound in sales of computed radiography systems, as well as strong sales of healthcare information systems. -- All Other sales were $37 million, up 48% from the year-ago quarter. The loss from operations totaled $55 million, compared with a loss of $53 million a year ago. The All Other category includes the Display & Components operation and other miscellaneous businesses. "As I indicated at our investor meeting on Sept. 28, we anticipate that more than 40% of the company's total digital revenue in 2005 will occur in the last four months of the year, reflecting the seasonality common to digital markets and the company's acquisitions earlier this year," Perez said. "As those sales occur, we will enjoy increased digital earnings, as September's performance shows. "We've made it clear that we measure success against the three critical metrics that best reflect the company we are building - digital revenue growth, digital earnings growth and cash flow," Perez said. "In each category, our performance in the third quarter was in line with the expectations presented on Sept. 28, and we intend to carry this momentum into the fourth quarter and 2006."

GAAP earnings only will be reported, accompanied by a description of the non-operational items affecting quarterly results by line item in the P&L. The following table presents a description of the non-operational items affecting the Company's quarterly results by line item in the P&L for the third quarter 2005 and 2004, respectively.

(63) (64) -------- --------------- ------- Subtotal (63) (0.22) (64) $(0.22) -------- --------------- ------- Impact of Contingent Convertible Debt on EPS $(0.04) Consolidated Revenues: Net worldwide sales were $3.553 billion for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $3.374 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $179 million or 5%. The increase in net sales for the period reflected the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $22 million, or approximately 1%, and acquisitions, totaling $513 million. The increase in net sales was primarily due to: -- Volume: volume declines reduced third quarter sales by 6.6 percentage points driven primarily by declines in the film capture Strategic Product Group (SPG), the wholesale and retail photofinishing portions of the consumer output SPG, and the Health Group digital output SPG. -- Price/Mix: price/mix declines reduced third quarter sales by 4.3 percentage points, primarily driven by the film capture SPG, consumer digital capture SPG and Health Group digital capture and digital output SPG's. -- Exchange: favorable exchange of 0.7 percentage point partially offset the negative impacts of volume and price/mix. -- Acquisitions: Kodak Polychrome Graphics (KPG), and Creo contributed $513 million or approximately 15.2 percentage points to third quarter sales. Net sales in the U.S. were $1.446 billion for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $1.414 billion for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $32 million, or 2%. Net sales outside the U.S. were $2.107 billion for the current quarter as compared with $1.960 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $147 million, or 8%. The increase in net sales for the period reflected the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $22 million, or approximately 1%. Kodak's digital product sales were $1.888 billion for the current quarter as compared with $1.283 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $605 million, or 47%, primarily driven by the Creo and KPG acquisitions, and the digital capture SPG. Net sales of the company's traditional products were $1.661 billion for the current quarter as compared with $2.085 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $424 million, or 20%, primarily driven by declines in the film capture SPG, and the wholesale and retail photofinishing portions of the consumer output SPG. Net sales of new technologies products were $4 million in the current quarter versus $6 million for the third quarter of 2004. Refer to the attached "non-GAAP" reconciliation for a reconciliation of digital, traditional, and new technologies revenue to total consolidated net sales. Non-U.S. Revenues: The company's operations outside the U.S. are reported in three regions: (1) the Europe, Africa and Middle East Region ("EAMER"), (2) the Asia Pacific Region and (3) the Canada and Latin America Region. Net sales in the EAMER region were $1.084 billion for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $1.017 billion for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $67 million, or 7%. Net sales in the Asia Pacific region were $670 million for the current quarter as compared with $629 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $41 million, or 7%. The increase in net sales for the period reflected the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of 3%. Net sales in the Canada and Latin America region were $353 million in the current quarter as compared with $314 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $39 million, or 12%. The increase in net sales for the period reflected the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of 2%. Emerging Markets: The company's major emerging markets include China, Brazil, Mexico, Russia, India, Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Net sales in emerging markets were $721 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $736 million for the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of $15 million, or 2%. The emerging market portfolio accounted for approximately 21% of Kodak's worldwide sales and 35% of Kodak's non-U.S. sales in the quarter. Sales growth was recorded for Mexico 18% and Brazil 4%. Sales declines were recorded for China 9%, India 5% and Russia 2%. Gross Profit: Gross profit was $933 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $1.078 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $145 million, or 13%. The gross profit margin was 26.3% in the current quarter as compared with 32.0% in the prior year quarter. The gross profit margin decreased approximately 5.7 percentage points primarily attributable to: -- Price/Mix: reduced gross profit by 3.0 percentage points primarily attributable to the consumer digital capture SPG, entertainment print films, and the Health Group digital capture SPG. -- Manufacturing Cost: unfavorable manufacturing cost decreased gross profit by 3.5 percentage points due to unfavorable manufacturing variances and increased raw material prices. -- Exchange: favorably impacted gross margin by 0.7 percentage points. Gross profit in the quarter includes the following items: -- Additional year over year restructuring costs of $78 million -- Write-off of physical assets of approximately $30 million -- Additional depreciation of $66 million due to asset useful life changes Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: SG&A expenses were $673 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $629 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $44 million, or 7%. The increase in SG&A is primarily attributable to: -- Acquisition related SG&A of $94 million -- Unfavorable foreign exchange of $2 million These increases were partially offset by: -- Cost reduction initiatives As a percentage of sales, SG&A was 19% for the current quarter, no change from the third quarter of 2004. Research and Development Costs: R&D expenses were $217 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $219 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $2 million, or 1%. The total for the third quarter of 2005 includes a credit for purchased in-process R&D of $12 million and additional R&D expense of $22 million associated with the acquisitions of Creo and KPG. R&D as a percentage of sales decreased from 7% for the third quarter of 2004 to 6% for the current quarter. Restructuring Costs and Other Cost Reduction Plans: On July 20, 2005, Kodak announced that as part of its effort to accelerate its digital transformation, the Company would extend the restructuring program originally announced in January 2004 to be largely completed by the middle of 2007. The extension of the January 2004 program includes two major additional initiatives: -- Reducing general and administrative costs, in part by consolidating functions and standardizing business processes. This will result in an incremental employment reduction totaling approximately 2,300 positions. -- Accelerating the current restructuring of the traditional manufacturing asset base. At the conclusion of this restructuring, and including the impact of the change in useful lives of manufacturing assets, the company expects that its traditional asset base will total approximately $1 billion, a reduction of 65 percent from the January 2004 level. The incremental employment reduction specific to manufacturing will be approximately 7,000 positions. Together, these additional actions will generate incremental annual savings of approximately $800 million. The incremental cash charges associated with these actions will be approximately $470 million. Total cost reduction actions will bring the total worldwide employment reduction to a range of 22,500 to 25,000 by mid-year 2007. The charges associated with the additional moves will increase the total to a range of $2.7 billion to $3 billion, up from $1.3 billion to $1.7 billion announced in January 2004. The annual savings from the new actions will increase the total to a range of $1.6 billion to $1.8 billion, up from $800 million to $1 billion announced in January 2004. In the third quarter, Kodak implemented cost reduction actions resulting in pre-tax charges totaling $261 million. The components of restructuring in the third quarter included $111 million for employee severance relating to the elimination of approximately 2,000 positions, $38 million associated with exit costs and asset impairments, pension plan curtailments of $4 million, and reversals of prior reserves of ($7) million. These components total $146 million and are recorded in "Restructuring Costs and Other". In addition, the company recorded accelerated depreciation and inventory write-offs of $115 million during the quarter, which are recorded in "Cost of Goods Sold" (COGS). The following changes in manufacturing plant operations and other actions were announced during the quarter: -- Consolidation of color photographic paper manufacturing for North America at plants in Windsor, Colo., and Harrow, England, resulting in the closure of an operation in Rochester by the end of October; -- Closure by year-end of an operation in Rochester that recycles polyester waste and part of an operation that processes polyester raw material in the manufacturing of Estar polyester film base. -- Reduction of manufacturing capacity for consumer film products at its plant in Xiamen, China. Under the current cost reduction program on a program-to-date basis Kodak has implemented cost reduction actions resulting in pre-tax charges totaling $1.7 billion, which includes the elimination of approximately 15,500 positions worldwide. Earnings From Continuing Operations before Interest, Other Income (Charges) Net and Income Taxes (EFO): EFO for the third quarter of 2005 was negative $103 million as compared with positive $3 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $106 million. EFO as a percentage of sales decreased from less than one percent in the third quarter of 2004 to negative 3% in the current quarter. The decrease in earnings from operations is attributable to the reasons indicated above. Digital Earnings: Third quarter digital earnings were $10 million, which includes a favorable impact of $18 million in the current quarter for legacy cost allocation changes and a charge of approximately $5 million for the change in useful asset lives. To calculate a common basis of comparison with the company's full year digital earnings projection, as adjusted for the two accounting changes cited, requires (1) the exclusion of $44 million of costs associated with Creo's operating results and purchase accounting for the KPG and Creo acquisitions and (2) the exclusion of in-process R&D credits of $12 million, which together net to $32 million. On this basis, digital earnings were $42 million in the current quarter. The digital earnings trend gained momentum as the quarter progressed, with significant digital earnings improvement recorded for the month of September alone. This trend is in-line with seasonal digital expectations, as more than 40% of the Company's total digital revenues are expected to occur in the last four months of this year. Refer to the attached "non-GAAP" reconciliations for a reconciliation of digital earnings and digital earnings excluding certain purchase accounting costs for KPG and Creo, and operating results for Creo. Below EFO: Interest expense for the third quarter of 2005 was $57 million as compared with $43 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $14 million, or 33%. Higher interest expense is a result of increased levels of debt associated with acquisitions. The "Other Income/(Charges)" component includes investment income, income and losses from equity investments, gains and losses on the sales of assets and investments, and foreign exchange gains and losses. Other Charges for the current quarter were $15 million as compared with Other Income of $24 million for the third quarter of 2004. The current quarter included charges/credits relating to the following items: -- A $21 million gain on the sale of property Offset by: -- A charge of $21 million relating to an asset impairment The largest contributor to the increase in other charges for the current quarter is the move of KPG equity income to the Graphic Communications Group as a result of Kodak's purchase of KPG. Corporate Tax Rate: The Company's estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations increased from 17% for the prior year third quarter to 34% for the third quarter of 2005. This increase is primarily attributable to the inability to benefit losses in the U.S. as a result of the decision to record a valuation allowance ed against net U.S. deferred tax assets. During the third quarter of 2005, the Company recorded a tax provision from continuing operations of $855 million on a pre-tax loss of $175 million. The tax provision of $855 million for the quarter differs from the tax benefit of $59 million that results from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the pre-tax loss of $175 million due to (1) the $900 million tax provision recorded related to the write-down of the net deferred tax assets in the U.S. resulting from the Company's plan to accelerate restructuring of its traditional business combined with current and anticipated losses in the U.S. with respect to such operations, and (2) a combination of net discrete period charges that were not benefited for tax in the U.S. and charges taxed in jurisdictions that, when aggregated, have tax rates lower than the estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations. The net discrete period tax charges are primarily attributable to the creation of the valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets resulting from discrete charges during 2005 including restructuring and other actions related to the decline of the traditional business. During the third quarter of 2004, the Company recorded a tax benefit from continuing operations of $28 million on a pre-tax loss of $16 million. The tax benefit of $28 million for the quarter differs from the tax benefit of $3 million that results from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate of 17% to the pre-tax loss of $16 million due to discrete period charges which are taxed in jurisdictions that, when aggregated, have tax rates greater than the estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations. Earnings from Continuing Operations: Earnings from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2005 were negative $1.030 billion, or negative $3.59 per diluted share, as compared with earnings from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2004 of positive $12 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, representing a decrease of $1.042 billion. Earnings from Discontinued Operations: Net income from discontinued operations of $446 million in the third quarter of 2004 primarily reflects the sale of the company's Remote Sensing Systems business, which was sold to ITT Industries Inc. in August 2004. Segment Results: Digital and Film Imaging Systems This segment provides consumers, professionals and cinematographers with digital and traditional products and services. Revenues: Net worldwide sales for the Digital and Film Imaging Systems segment were $1.995 billion for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $2.363 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $368 million, or 16%. The decrease in net sales was composed of: -- Volume: decreases in volume reduced third quarter sales by 11.3 percentage points driven primarily by declines in the film capture SPG and the wholesale and retail photofinishing portions of the consumer output SPG. -- Price/Mix: declines attributable to price/mix reduced third quarter sales by 5.7 percentage points driven primarily by the digital capture SPG and the film capture SPG. -- Exchange: favorable exchange of 0.9 percentage points partially offsets the negative impacts of volume and price/mix. Net sales in the U.S. were $839 million for the current quarter as compared with $970 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $131 million, or 14%. Net sales outside the U.S. were $1.156 billion for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $1.393 billion for the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of $237 million, or 17%. Digital product sales were $708 million for the current quarter as compared with $580 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $128 million, or 22%, primarily driven by the consumer digital capture SPG, the kiosks/media portion of the consumer output SPG, and the home printing SPG. Traditional product sales were $1.287 billion for the current quarter as compared with $1.783 billion for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $496 million or 28%, primarily driven by declines in the consumer output and film capture SPG's. Digital Strategic Product Group Revenues: Net worldwide sales of consumer digital capture products, which include consumer digital cameras, accessories, memory products and royalties, increased 20% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting strong volume increases and favorable exchange, partially offset by negative price/mix. Kodak gained U.S. and worldwide unit market share on a year to date basis through August. Net worldwide sales of Picture Maker kiosks/media increased 48% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the third quarter of 2004, as a result of strong volume increases and favorable exchange. Sales continue to be driven by strong 4x6 format media sales at retail locations, which increased approximately 140% versus last year. Net worldwide sales from the home printing solutions SPG, which includes inkjet photo paper and printer docks/media, increased 45% in the current quarter as compared with the third quarter of 2004 driven by sales of printer docks and associated thermal media, with strong volumes partially offset by unfavorable price/mix. Through August, Kodak's Printer Dock product continues to maintain a leading market share position on a weighted average basis in six key countries where market share is measured. During the quarter, inkjet paper sales and volume declined year over year. Traditional Strategic Product Group Revenues: Net worldwide sales of the film capture SPG, including consumer roll film (35mm and APS film), one-time-use cameras (OTUC), professional films, reloadable traditional film cameras and batteries/videotape decreased 30% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the third quarter of 2004, primarily reflecting volume declines and negative price/mix partially offset by favorable exchange. U.S. consumer film industry sell-through volumes decreased approximately 27% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the prior year quarter. Consumer film industry volumes in the U.S. are expected to decline, as previously communicated, up to 30% for the full year 2005. Kodak's worldwide projection for consumer film remains a decline in the range of 23% to 27% for full year 2005. Net worldwide sales for the retail photofinishing SPG, which includes color negative paper, minilab equipment and services, chemistry, and photofinishing services at retail, decreased 29% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the third quarter of 2004, primarily reflecting volume declines and negative price/mix partially offset by favorable exchange. Net worldwide sales for the wholesale photofinishing SPG, which includes color negative paper, equipment, chemistry, and photofinishing services at Qualex in the U.S. and CIS (Consumer Imaging Services) outside the U.S., decreased 49% in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the third quarter of 2004, reflecting continuing volume declines and negative price/mix partially offset by favorable exchange. Net worldwide sales for the entertainment film SPG's, including origination and print films for the entertainment industry, decreased 9%, primarily reflecting volume declines and unfavorable price/mix for print films partially offset by favorable exchange. During the quarter, entertainment print film performance was negatively impacted by weak summer box office trends and a tough comparison from a particularly strong year ago quarter. However, the industry is expecting more favorable box office momentum for the remainder of the year, as a number of popular feature films are scheduled to come to theaters during this timeframe. On a year to date basis through September, entertainment film sales increased 2%. Gross Profit: Gross profit for the Digital and Film Imaging Systems segment was $564 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $745 million for the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of $181 million or 24%. The gross profit margin was 28.3% in the current year quarter as compared with 31.5% in the prior year quarter. The 3.2 percentage point decrease was primarily attributable to: -- Price/Mix: declines attributable to price/mix reduced gross profit margins by 3.8 percentage points primarily driven by the film capture SPG, the digital capture SPG and entertainment print films. -- Manufacturing Cost: unfavorable manufacturing cost decreased gross profit margins by 0.1 percentage point. -- Exchange: favorably impacted gross profit margins by 0.9 percentage points. SG&A: In the third quarter, SG&A expenses for the Digital and Film Imaging Systems segment decreased $37 million or 9%, from $427 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $390 million in the current quarter, and increased as a percentage of sales from 18% to 20%. R&D: Third quarter R&D costs for the Digital and Film Imaging Systems segment decreased $22 million, or 25%, from $88 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $66 million in the current quarter and decreased as a percentage of sales from 4% to 3%. The decrease in R&D year over year was primarily attributable to spending reductions related to traditional products and services. EFO: Earnings from operations for the Digital and Film Imaging Systems segment decreased $122 million, or 53%, from $230 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $108 million in the third quarter of 2005, primarily as a result of the factors described above. The operating earnings margin rate decreased from 10% for the prior year quarter to 5% in the current quarter. Health Group The Health Group segment supplies the healthcare industry with traditional and digital image capture and output products and services. Revenues: Net worldwide sales for the Health Group were $635 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $642 million for the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of $7 million, or 1%. The decrease in net sales was composed of: -- Volume: Volume growth increased third quarter sales by 0.7 percentage points, primarily driven by growth in the digital capture, services, and healthcare information systems, largely offset by decreases in the digital output and film capture & output SPG's. -- Price/Mix: Decreases in price/mix reduced third quarter sales by 2.1 percentage points, primarily driven by the digital capture, digital output, and the traditional medical film portion of the film capture and output SPG's. -- Exchange: Favorable exchange impacted sales by 0.4 percentage points. Net sales in the U.S. were $260 million for the current quarter as compared with $276 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing a decrease of $16 million, or 6%. Net sales outside the U.S. were $375 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $366 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $9 million, or 2%. Digital Products Revenues: Net worldwide sales of digital products, which include digital output (DryView laser imagers/media and wet laser printers/media), digital capture equipment (computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR) systems), services, dental systems (practice management software and digital radiography capture equipment) and healthcare information systems (PACS - Picture Archiving and Communications Systems), were $416 million for the current quarter as compared with $414 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing an increase of $2 million or less than 1%. Sales reflect modest volume increases largely offset by negative price/mix. Traditional Products Revenues: Net worldwide sales of traditional products, including analog film, equipment and chemistry were $219 million for the current quarter as compared with $228 million for the prior year quarter, representing an decrease of $9 million, or 4%. Sales reflect volume declines and negative price mix. Gross Profit: Gross profit for the Health Group was $252 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $271 million in the prior year quarter, representing a decrease of $19 million, or 7%. The gross profit margin was 39.7% in the current quarter as compared with 42.2% in the third quarter of 2004. The decrease in the gross profit margin of 2.5 percentage points was principally attributable to: -- Manufacturing Cost: Manufacturing cost decreased gross profit margins by 0.8 percentage points, primarily reflecting accelerated depreciation of manufacturing assets, and higher silver and raw material costs. -- Price/Mix: Price/mix negatively impacted gross profit margins by 2.4 percentage points primarily driven by the digital capture and digital output SPG's, and services. -- Exchange: Favorable exchange added 0.6 percentage points to the gross profit margin. SG&A: In the third quarter, SG&A expenses for the Health Group increased $5 million, or 4%, from $112 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $117 million for the current quarter, and increased as a percent of sales from 17% to 18%. The increase in SG&A expenses reflects the impact of the integration of the Orex acquisition. R&D: Third quarter R&D costs decreased $8 million from $53 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $45 million in the current quarter, a decrease of 15%, and decreased as a percentage of sales from 8% to 7%. EFO: Earnings from operations for the Health Group decreased $16 million, or 15%, from $106 million for the prior year quarter to $90 million for the third quarter of 2005, while EFO as a percentage of sales decreased 2.3 percentage points to 14.2% from 16.5% for the prior year quarter. This decline primarily reflects the impact of lower gross profit margins. Graphic Communications The Graphic Communications segment serves a variety of customers in the creative, in-plant, data center, commercial printing, packaging, newspaper and digital service bureau market segments with a range of software and hardware products that provide customers with a variety of solutions for prepress equipment, workflow software, traditional and digital printing, and document scanning and multi-vendor IT services. On January 12, 2005, the Company announced that it had entered into a Redemption Agreement with Sun Chemical Corporation and Sun Chemical Group B.V. (collectively, "Sun"), pursuant to which the parties agreed to consummate certain transactions that resulted in Kodak owning 100% of the equity interests in Kodak Polychrome Graphics LLC and Kodak Polychrome Graphics Company Ltd (KPG). The Company completed its acquisition of KPG on April 1, 2005. On January 31, 2005, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Creo Inc., a premier supplier of prepress systems used by commercial printers worldwide. The Company completed its acquisition of Creo on June 15, 2005. Revenues: Net worldwide sales for the Graphic Communications segment were $886 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $344 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $542 million, or 158%. The increase in net sales was primarily due to the completion of the KPG and Creo acquisitions. Net sales in the U.S. were $331 million for the current year quarter as compared with $158 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $173 million, or 109%. Net sales outside the U.S. were $555 million in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $186 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $369 million or 198%. Digital Products and Services Revenues: The Graphic Communications segment digital product sales for the current quarter were $737 million versus $278 million for the prior year quarter, an increase of 165%, primarily related to the acquisitions of KPG and Creo. These digital sales are comprised of KPG digital revenues, NexPress Solutions, a producer of digital color and black and white printing solutions, Creo, a supplier of prepress systems, Kodak Versamark, a provider of continuous inkjet technology, document scanners, Encad, a maker of wide format inkjet printers, and service and support. Net worldwide sales for NexPress color and black and white products increased 49% from the prior year quarter, driven by strong volume increases partially offset by unfavorable price/mix. The installed base of digital production color presses continues to grow and increases in customer average monthly page volumes are leading to higher consumables revenue. NexPress black & white digital equipment and consumables also saw strong revenue growth in the quarter. Kodak Versamark sales decreased 4% in the current quarter as compared with the third quarter of 2004, due to timing of product shipments. Traditional Products and Services Revenues: Segment traditional product sales for the current quarter are $149 million versus $66 million for the third quarter of 2004, an increase of 126%, primarily due to the KPG acquisition. These traditional sales are comprised of the sales of Kodak traditional graphics products, KPG's analog plates and films, and microfilm products. Gross Profit: Gross profit for the Graphic Communications segment was $233 million for the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $94 million in the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $139 million, or 148%. The gross profit margin was 26.3% in the current quarter as compared with 27.3% in the prior year quarter. The decrease in the gross profit margin of 1.0 percentage point was primarily attributable to: -- Acquisitions: Creo and KPG increased gross profit margins by approximately 3.1 percentage points. -- Manufacturing Cost: Manufacturing costs negatively impacted gross profit margins by approximately 4.4 percentage points primarily related to the impacts of purchase accounting. -- Exchange: Favorable exchange added 0.1 percentage points to the gross profit margin. SG&A: SG&A expenses for the Graphic Communications segment increased $82 million, or 106%, from $77 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $159 million for the current quarter, and decreased as a percentage of sales from 22% to 18%. The decrease in SG&A percentage is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of KPG and Creo, which have lower SG&A as a percent of sales. R&D: R&D costs increased $25 million, from $34 million in the third quarter of 2004 to $59 million in the current quarter and decreased as a percentage of sales from 10% for the third quarter of 2004 to 7% for the current quarter. The absolute dollar increase in R&D spending is primarily driven by increased R&D costs associated with acquired businesses, partially offset by a $12 million purchase accounting credit relating to in-process R&D charges originally recorded in the second quarter of 2005 in conjunction with the acquisition of Creo. EFO: Earnings from operations for the Graphic Communications segment were $15 million in the current quarter versus losses of $16 million for the prior year quarter primarily as a result of the factors outlined above. All Other All Other is composed of Kodak's display and components business for image sensors, optics, display materials, and other small, miscellaneous businesses. All Other also includes development initiatives in inkjet technologies. These businesses offer imaging sensors to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and other specialty materials including organic light emitting diode (OLED) technology to commercial customers. Revenues: Net worldwide sales for All Other were $37 million for the third quarter of 2005, as compared with $25 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $12 million, or 48%. Net sales in the U.S. were $16 million for the current year quarter as compared with $10 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $6 million, or 60%. Net sales outside the U.S. were $21 million in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with $15 million for the prior year quarter, representing an increase of $6 million, or 40%. EFO: The loss from operations for All Other was $55 million in the current quarter, a decrease in earnings of $2 million or 4% as compared with the loss from operations of $53 million in the third quarter of 2004. The loss from operations was primarily driven by digital investments, which include the inkjet and display programs. Balance Sheet: Cash Flow: Net cash (used in) provided by continuing operations relating to operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, as determined under U.S. GAAP in the third quarter of 2005 was $370 million, ($81) million and ($232) million, respectively. Kodak's definition of free cash flow equals net cash provided by continuing operations relating to operating activities less additions to properties. Kodak's definition of operating cash flow equals free cash flow plus proceeds from sales of assets plus distributions from unconsolidated affiliates minus investments in unconsolidated affiliates minus acquisitions minus debt assumed through acquisitions minus dividends. Investable cash flow is operating cash flow excluding acquisitions and debt assumed in acquisitions. During the third quarter, operating cash flow from continuing operations was $216 million, a $18 million change versus $234 million in the year ago quarter driven primarily by an increase in cash payments associated with restructuring. Investable cash flow was $216 million, $41 million lower than the $257 million in the third quarter of 2004. Kodak remains committed to achieve targeted investable cash flow for the year at the lower end of the $400 million to $600 million range, as outlined on September 28th at the Company's New York investor meeting. The table below reconciles the net cash provided by continuing operations relating to operating activities as determined under U.S. GAAP, to Kodak's definition of Free Cash Flow, to Kodak's definition of operating and investable cash flow for the third quarter of 2005 and 2004 and year to date 2005 and 2004. 3rd Quarter - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ($ millions) 2005 2004 --------------- Net cash (used in) provided by continuing operations relating to operating activities: $370 $411 Additions to properties (122) (101) --------------- Free Cash Flow (continuing operations) 248 310 Net proceeds from sales of businesses/assets 40 19 Distributions from/(investments in) unconsolidated affiliates 0 0 Acquisitions, net of cash acquired 0 (23) Debt assumed through acquisitions 0 0 Dividends (72) (72) --------------- Operating Cash Flow (continuing operations) 216 234 Acquisitions, net of cash acquired 0 23 Debt assumed through acquisitions 0 0 --------------- Investable Cash Flow (continuing operations) $216 $257 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Year to Date - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ($ millions) 2005 2004 --------------- Net cash provided by continuing operations relating to operating activities: ($60) $444 Additions to properties (332) (283) --------------- Free Cash Flow (continuing operations) (392) 161 Net proceeds from sales of businesses/assets 62 20 Distributions from/(investments in) unconsolidated affiliates 63 (31) Acquisitions, net of cash acquired (987) (358) Debt assumed through acquisitions (541) 0 Dividends (72) (72) --------------- Operating Cash Flow (continuing operations) (1,867) (280) Acquisitions, net of cash acquired 987 358 Debt assumed through acquisitions 541 0 --------------- Investable Cash Flow (continuing operations) ($339) $78 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dividend: The company makes semi-annual dividend payments, which, when declared by the Board of Directors, will be paid on the company's 10th business day each July and December to shareholders of record as of the close of the first business day of the preceding month. The Company paid a semi-annual dividend payment on July 15, 2005. On October 18, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of 25 cents per share on the outstanding common shares to shareholders of record on November 1, payable on December 14, 2005. Capital Spending: Capital additions were $122 million in the third quarter of 2005, which was $21 million higher than the year ago quarter and $11 million higher quarter sequentially. The majority of the spending supported new products, manufacturing productivity and quality improvements, infrastructure improvements and ongoing environmental and safety initiatives. Receivables: Total net receivables of $2.867 billion, which were composed of trade ($2.475 billion) and miscellaneous ($392 million) receivables at the end of the third quarter of 2005, increased $367 million from the third quarter of 2004 and decreased $109 million quarter sequentially. The quarter sequential decrease is a result of third quarter sales being lower than second quarter sales. The year over year increase is driven by receivables from acquisitions. Accrued customer rebates are classified as miscellaneous payables; however, the majority of these are cleared through customer deductions. The effect of offsetting these accrued customer rebates would reduce the net trade receivable balance by $358 million to $2.117 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2005, and would reduce the net trade receivable balance by $450 million to $1.674 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2004. Kodak defines days sales outstanding (DSO) as the four-quarter moving average net trade receivables after customer rebate reclassification, divided by 12 months of trade sales, multiplied by 365 days. Due to the fact that reported sales are net of customer rebates and a majority of these rebates are cleared through customer deductions, the company's DSO calculation includes the impact of reclassifying rebates as an offset to receivables. By reclassifying the rebates as an offset to receivables, the company's DSO is more reflective of the true number of days the net trade receivables are outstanding. DSO from continuing operations for the third quarter was 50 days, higher than the prior year quarter by 6 days and higher quarter sequentially by two days. This is primarily due to the newly acquired businesses that tend to have higher DSO. If rebate accrual balances were not offset against receivables for purposes of calculating the DSO, DSO from continuing operations would have increased year over year by four days to 61 days and two days quarter sequentially. Inventory: Kodak's inventories of $1.657 billion (after LIFO) increased $230 million year over year and increased $134 million quarter sequentially. The year over year increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of KPG and Creo. Kodak defines days supply of inventory (DSI) from continuing operations as four-quarter average inventory before the LIFO reserve divided by 12 months COGS, multiplied by 365 days. For purposes of Kodak's definition, COGS excludes certain manufacturing-related costs that are considered to be unusual or that occur infrequently. Inventory before the LIFO reserve was $1.950 billion, $201 million higher than a year ago and $129 million higher than the second quarter of 2005. DSI from continuing operations of 65 days was higher by one day from the third quarter 2004 and flat quarter sequentially. Kodak defines inventory turns as 12 months COGS divided by four-quarter average inventory before the LIFO reserve. Inventory turns from continuing operations were 5.6, which is 0.1 lower than a year ago and 0.1 lower quarter sequentially. Including the impact of the LIFO reserve and using COGS as reported on a GAAP basis, DSI from continuing operations of 51 days increased by 2 days from the third quarter of 2004 and flat quarter sequentially. Inventory turns from continuing operations of 7.2 were 0.2 lower than a year ago and flat quarter sequentially. Debt: Debt increased $1.2 billion from the year-end level to $3.563 billion, reflecting acquisitions, and the company held $610 million in cash on its balance sheet at the end of the quarter, down from $1.255 billion at the end of 2004. Quarter sequentially, debt decreased by $158 million to $3.563 billion and cash increased by $57 million to $610 million. Equity was $2.326 billion and the debt to total capital ratio was 60.5%, reflecting an increase of 7.0 percentage points quarter sequentially and an increase of 18.9 percentage points year over year. The increase is driven primarily by the debt associated with the acquisitions of KPG and Creo, and also by the decrease in equity resulting from year-to-date losses, including a $900 million tax charge in the third quarter to establish a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in the U.S. Foreign Exchange: Year over year, the impact of foreign exchange on operating activities during the third quarter was a positive $0.09 per share and foreign exchange activities recorded in "Other Income/(Charges)" had a ($0.01) per share impact. Therefore, the sum of the operational and reportable exchange impacts increased earnings in the quarter by $0.08 per share. Silver: During the third quarter, the impact of high silver prices was partially offset by the effect of favorable foreign exchange. Upcoming Meetings: Kodak Investor Relations and the Health Group will host an investor event for those members of the investment community who will be attending the upcoming RSNA trade show. This event will be held on Tuesday, November 29, at McCormick Place in Chicago. Additional details will follow shortly.
