NOTE 20: RETIREMENT PLANS

 

Substantially all U.S. employees are covered by a noncontributory defined benefit plan, the Kodak Retirement Income Plan (“KRIP” or the "U.S. Plan"), which is funded by Company contributions to an irrevocable trust fund. The funding policy for KRIP is to contribute amounts sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements as determined by employee benefit and tax laws plus any additional amounts the Company determines to be appropriate. Assets in the trust fund are held for the sole benefit of participating employees and retirees.

 

For U.S. employees hired prior to March 1999, KRIP’s benefits were generally based on a formula recognizing length of service and final average earnings. KRIP included a separate cash balance formula for all U.S. employees hired after February 1999, as well as employees hired prior to that date who opted into the cash balance formula during a special election period. Effective January 1, 2015 the KRIP was amended to provide that all participants accrue benefits under a single, revised cash balance formula (the “Cash Balance Plan”). The Cash Balance Plan credits employees’ hypothetical accounts with an amount equal to a specified percentage of their pay, plus interest based on the 30-year Treasury bond rate. In May 2022, the KRIP plan was amended to increase the employees’ crediting rates from 9% or 10% of pay based on employee classification to 12% or 13% of pay, retroactive to January 1, 2022. The plan amendment also provided a one-time service credit to eligible employees’ cash balance accounts.

 

Many subsidiaries and branches operating outside the U.S. have defined benefit retirement plans covering substantially all employees. Contributions by Kodak for these plans are typically deposited under government or other fiduciary-type arrangements. Retirement benefits are generally based on contractual agreements that provide for benefit formulas using years of service and/or compensation prior to retirement. The actuarial assumptions used for these plans reflect the diverse economic environments within the various countries in which Kodak operates.

 

Information on the major funded and unfunded U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans is presented below. The information for the U.S. for all years presented relates to KRIP. The composition of the major Non-U.S. plans may vary from year to year. If the major Non-U.S. plan composition changes, prior year data is conformed to ensure comparability.

 

Obligations and Funded Status:

 

The measurement date used to determine the pension obligation for all funded and unfunded U.S. and Non-U.S. defined benefit plans is December 31.

An actuarial gain of $479 million related to the U.S. Plan's projected benefit obligation ("PBO") was recognized in 2022, primarily driven by an increase in the discount rate ($582 million), partially offset by a loss associated with updated mortality assumptions ($105 million).  Additionally, a prior service cost was recognized as a result of a plan amendment ($28 million).  In 2021, a PBO actuarial gain of $86 million was recognized for the U.S. Plan driven primarily by an increase in the discount rate ($105 million). The Non-U.S. PBO actuarial gain of $165 million recognized in 2022 was driven primarily by an increase in the discount rates, whereas the loss in 2021 was driven primarily by changes in inflation and other demographic assumptions partially offset by an increase in discount rates.

 

The actual return on plan assets for the U.S. Plan was a loss of $152 million for the year ended  December 31, 2022 and a gain of $716 million for the year ended  December 31, 2021. The loss for 2022 reflects lower than expected bond performance due to rising interest rates, and the gain for 2021 reflects higher expected returns for the U.S. private equity and hedge fund portfolios. The total net realized losses from derivative investments for 2022 and 2021 were approximately ($128) million and ($23) million, respectively. Refer to discussion below on derivative instruments for further information.

The expected return on plan assets (“EROA”) is a long-term rate of return which is based on a combination of formal asset and liability studies that include forward-looking return expectations given the current asset allocation.

 

Kodak uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows.

 

Plan Asset Investment Strategy

 

The investment strategy underlying the asset allocation for the pension assets is to achieve an optimal return on assets with an acceptable level of risk while providing for the long-term liabilities and maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay current benefits and other cash obligations of the plans. This is primarily achieved by investing in a broad portfolio constructed of various asset classes including equity, debt, real estate, private equity, hedge funds and other assets and instruments. In addition, the U.S. Plan uses derivative investments primarily to hedge liability interest rate risk to U.S. government bonds. Other investment objectives include maintaining broad diversification between and within asset classes and investment managers and managing asset volatility relative to plan liabilities.

 

Every three years, or when market conditions have changed materially, each of Kodak’s major pension plans will undertake an asset allocation or asset and liability modeling study. The asset allocation and expected return on the plans’ assets are individually set to provide for benefits and other cash obligations within each country’s legal investment constraints.

 

Actual allocations may vary from the target asset allocations due to market value fluctuations, the length of time it takes to implement changes in strategy, and the timing of cash contributions and cash requirements of the plans. The asset allocations are monitored and are rebalanced in accordance with the policy set forth for each plan.

 

Plan Asset Risk Management

 

Kodak evaluates its defined benefit plans’ asset portfolios for the existence of significant concentrations of risk. Types of concentrations that are evaluated include, but are not limited to, investment concentrations in a single entity, type of industry, foreign country, individual fund and single investment manager. As of December 31, 2022 two investment management firms (Loomis Sayles and Income Research + Management) each managed 10% of plan assets. In 2021 there were no significant concentrations (defined as greater than 10% of plan assets) of risk in Kodak’s defined benefit plan assets.

Derivative Investments

The U.S. Plan derivative instruments consist of direct investments in exchange traded futures contracts. Government bond exposure is obtained via U.S. government bond futures. Foreign currency futures contracts are used to partially hedge foreign currency risk.

 

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the notional amount for exchange traded futures contracts approximated $389 million and $1.0 billion, respectively. Realized gains and losses from these derivative investments are included in the gain on plan assets balance. The total fair value of these derivative instruments at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $0 million and $10 million, respectively, which represents the unrealized gains and losses on these contracts and is included in the derivative line items in the table of plan assets below. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan is required to maintain cash on deposit to collateralize its obligations under its futures contracts. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, approximately $9 million and $17 million, respectively, were on deposit in cash and Treasury bills to fulfill these requirements and are included in the cash and cash equivalents asset class in the table below.

 

The U.S. Plan invests in a diversified portfolio of hedge funds that may utilize derivative instruments to execute their investment strategy. Any gains or losses, as well as changes in the fair value of derivative investments held by the hedge fund, are included in the hedge fund’s net asset value.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Kodak’s plan assets are accounted for at fair value and are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement, with the exception of investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share expedient. Kodak’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value of assets and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

 

The fair value of Kodak’s U.S. defined benefit pension plan assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by asset class are presented in the tables below:

Global Equity Securities Funds hold a broad diversified portfolio of U.S. equity, developed international equity, and emerging markets equity securities. These investments are primarily valued by the fund administrator based on a market or income valuation methodology depending on the specific type of security or instrument held. The U.S. Plan redeemed its investment in the Global Equity Securities Funds in 2022.

 

Real estate investments primarily include investments in limited partnerships that invest in office, industrial, retail and apartment properties. Investments are primarily valued by the fund manager based on independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models, cost and comparable market transactions. The term of each fund is typically 10 or more years and the fund’s investors do not have an option to redeem their interest in the fund but receive distributions through the liquidation of the underlying investments.

 

The Global Balanced Asset Allocation Fund investments are commingled funds that hold a diversified portfolio of passive market exposures, including equities, debt, currencies and commodities that uses an equal risk parity allocation strategy. These investments are primarily valued by the fund manager based on a market or income valuation methodology depending on the specific type of security or instrument held. The U.S. Plan redeemed its investment in the Global Balanced Asset Allocation Funds in 2022.

 

Private equity investments are primarily comprised of direct limited partnerships and fund-of-fund investments that invest in distressed investments, venture capital, leveraged buyouts and special situations. Private equity investments are valued by the fund manager primarily based on independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models, cost, and comparable market transactions. The term of each fund is typically 10 or more years and the fund’s investors do not have an option to redeem their interest in the fund. The investors in the fund receive distributions through the liquidation of the underlying investments in the fund.

 

The U.S. Plan invests in a portfolio of hedge funds to supplement the return generated by its exchange traded futures contracts as well as in a separate portfolio of hedge funds where the objective is to seek a higher absolute return. Hedge fund investments are made through direct investments in individual hedge funds. The hedge fund investments substantially consist of a diversified portfolio of hedge funds that use equity, debt, commodity, currency strategies and derivative instruments. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan evaluates several factors for investing in hedge funds including investment strategy, return, risk, liquidity, correlation to other funds and the number of funds to achieve a diversified portfolio of hedge funds.

 

Hedge funds are typically valued by each fund’s third-party fund administrator based upon the valuation of the underlying securities and instruments, primarily by applying a market or income valuation methodology as appropriate depending on the specific type of security or instrument held. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan maintains cash and Treasury bills as liquidity reserves that serve as variation margin for the U.S. Treasury futures contracts directly held by the U. S. Plan to hedge its liability duration. Approximately $90 million and $87 million of cash liquidity reserves associated with hedge funds as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are included in the cash and cash equivalents asset class in the table above.

Hedge funds typically have the right to restrict redemption requests beyond Kodak’s control. In these cases, redemptions may extend beyond the general redemption terms outlined in the table above. Certain hedge fund investments have no redemption rights and will become liquid only upon sale by the hedge fund managers. As of  December 31, 2022 and 2021, these investments represented approximately 1% and 5% of the hedge funds investments valued at NAV, respectively.

 

Liquidity

Approximately 29% of total U.S. Plan assets as of December 31, 2022 are invested in real estate funds, private equity funds and other investments where the U.S. Plan receives distributions through the liquidation of the underlying investments. Liquidity of U.S. Plan assets is managed to minimize the likelihood that these investments would need to be sold to cover benefit payments, derivative losses, or any other short-term need.

 

The total unfunded commitments, if and when they are called over the term of each investment, are expected to be funded by the available liquidity in the U.S. Plan consistent with historical experience.
