Why Kodak Isn’t Out of the Woods Yet
Kodak clawed its way out of bankruptcy this past Tuesday, but the Rochester-based company has a long climb yet.
There's been plenty of talk on this topic over the past week, but most of it seem to be focused on what Kodak gave up to emerge from the shadow of Chapter 11. NBC News, for example, emphasizes the loss of consumer-oriented operations and a 50% reduction in yearly expected revenue when they discuss the "New Kodak Moment."
Anyone with an appreciation for Kodak’s heritage is sure to feel a twinge of sadness over these developments, but it is still far too early to be asking if the sacrifice was worth it. The more important question is "will it work?"
