On January19, 2012 (the "Petition Date"), Eastman Kodak Company and its U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors")filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Bankruptcy Filing") under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") case number 12-10202. The Company's foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the "Non-Filing Entities") were not part of the Bankruptcy Filing. The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as "debtors-in-possession" under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Non-Filing Entities continue to operate in the ordinary course of business. Kodak incurred a net loss for the years ended 2012 and 2011, and had a shareholders' deficit as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.To improve Kodak's performance and address competitive challenges, Kodak has developed a strategic plan for the ongoing operation of the business.Successful implementation of Kodak's plan, however, is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties.In addition, the competitive industry conditions under which Kodak operates have negatively impacted its financial position, results of operations and cash flows and may continue to do so in the future.These factors raise substantial doubt about Kodak's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Kodak will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.Kodak's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to comply with the financial and other covenants contained in its debtor-in-possession credit agreements, the Bankruptcy Court's approval of Kodak's plan of reorganization and Kodak's ability to successfully implement the plan, among other factors.As a result of the Bankruptcy Filing, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities are subject to uncertainty.While operating as debtors-in-possession under chapter 11, Kodak may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permittedin the ordinary course of business (and subject to restrictions contained in the debtor-in-possession credit agreements and the Backstop Commitment Agreement), for amounts other than those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Further, the plan of reorganization could materially change the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities reported in the consolidated financial statements.The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or any other adjustments that might be necessary should Kodak be unable to continue as a going concern or as a consequence of the Bankruptcy Filing.Refer to Note 2, "Bankruptcy Proceedings" for additional information. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification due to the presentation of discontinued operations, assets held for sale and for a change in the segment measure of profitability.Refer to Note 19, "Segment Information" and Note 21, "Discontinued Operations" for additional information.falsefalsefalsexbrli:stringItemTypestringDescription of the basis of the financial statement presentation, including the method for determining value of liabilities subject to compromise, of an entity that has filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 3 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6367646&loc=d3e18780-107790 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Glossary Reorganization Value -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=29635974 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 852 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 7 -Subparagraph (c)(1) -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6918054&loc=SL2890621-112765 false0Basis of Financial Statement Presentation in Chapter 113false 2us-gaap_NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlockus-gaap_truenadurationfalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseterseLabel1falsefalsefalse00RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  ASU No. 2013-02 requires presentation of reclassification adjustments from each component of Accumulated other comprehensive income either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements, for those amounts required to be reclassified into Net income in their entirety in the same reporting period.  For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety in the same reporting period, cross-reference to other disclosures is required.  The changes to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as a result of this update are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2012 (January 1, 2013 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance required changes in presentation only and did not have an impact on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350) – Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.”  ASU No. 2012-02 amends the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by allowing companies to first assess the qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset might be impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test.  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective prospectively for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 (January 1, 2013 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance did not impact Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-10, “De-recognition of In-Substance Real Estate – a Scope Clarification,” which amends ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.”  ASU No. 2011-10 states that when an investor ceases to have a controlling financial interest in an entity that is in-substance real estate as a result of a default on the entity’s nonrecourse debt, the investor should apply the guidance under ASC Subtopic 360-20, Property, Plant and Equipment – Real Estate Sales to determine whether to derecognize the entity’s assets (including real estate) and liabilities (including the nonrecourse debt).  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update are effective prospectively for deconsolidation events occurring during fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012 (January 1, 2013 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance did not impact Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350) – Testing Goodwill for Impairment.”  ASU No. 2011-08 amends the impairment test for Goodwill by allowing companies to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that Goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step goodwill impairment test.  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update were effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 (January 1, 2012 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance did not impact Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220) - Presentation of Comprehensive Income.”  ASU No. 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of Other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity and requires an entity to present the total of Comprehensive income, the components of Net income, and the components of Other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of Comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update were effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 (January 1, 2012 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance required changes in presentation only and did not have an impact on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (ASC Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.”  ASU No. 2011-04 amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to include increased transparency around valuation inputs and investment categorization.  The changes to the ASC as a result of this update were effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 (January 1, 2012 for Kodak).  The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”.  The ASU provides that a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit would be offset against a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In that case, the liability associated with the unrecognized tax benefit is presented in the financial statements as a reduction to the related deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward.  In situations in which a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit will be presented in the financial statements as a liability and will not be combined with deferred tax assets.  The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013 (January 1, 2014 for Kodak) and Kodak is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) - Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon De-recognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.”  ASU No. 2013-05 specifies that a Cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) should be released into earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a consolidated foreign entity and the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity.  For sales of an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, a pro-rata portion of CTA attributable to the investment would be recognized in earnings upon sale of the investment.  When an entity sells either a part or all of its investment in a consolidated foreign entity, CTA would be recognized in earnings only if the sale results in the parent no longer having a controlling financial interest in the foreign entity.  The changes in the ASC are effective prospectively for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (January 1, 2014 for Kodak) and Kodak is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, “Liabilities (Topic 405) - Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date."  ASU No 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as the sum of the following:  the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.  The guidance in this ASU also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations.  The amendments in this update are effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013 (January 1, 2014 for Kodak) and Kodak is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption on Kodak’s Consolidated Financial Statements.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaDisclosure of accounting policy pertaining to new accounting pronouncements that may impact the entity's financial reporting.
