Kodak had a portfolio of diverse business
models…
http://media.democratandchronicle.com/kodaknext/#timeline
Special Report, September 1, 2013
And was Doing Extremely Well…
If you wanted to photograph your child’s birthday party
you would likely be using a Kodak Camera, Kodak film
and Kodak flash cubes…
You have it processed either at the corner drugstore or
mail the film to Kodak and get back prints made with
Kodak chemistry on Kodak paper…
Kodak was making money on every step of the
photographic process…
It was the Perfect Business Model…
Allowing Kodak to command 90% of film sales and 85%
of camera sales in the U.S.
But…
http://media.democratandchronicle.com/kodaknext/#timeline
Special Report, September 1, 2013
Kodak was not able to sustain Growth &
was Facing Decline in Sales and Profits…
http://media.democratandchronicle.com/kodaknext/#timeline
Special Report, September 1, 2013
& By 2011, Kodak has reduced its work force
by more than 80% carrying $764M Losses…
http://media.democratandchronicle.com/kodaknext/#timeline
Special Report, September 1, 2013
Kodak Stock Price taking
a dive reaching 5.5 cents
Why??
Kodak lost the right MOMENT to enter
the digital camera market…
Despite that…
In 1975, Kodak had already the first Digital
Camera Prototype…
It was invented by Mr. Steven Sasson, a 24
year old engineer …
In 1989, Mr. Sasson & Robert Hills, created the first
modern digital camera that looks and functions like
today’s professional models…
Kodak’s marketing department was not interested.
The camera would “eat away at the film sales”…
Despite
that…
In 1996, Kodak tried to duplicate the film
based Razor-blade business model, with
film- based digital Camera…
The Advantix Preview digital camera allowed users to
preview their shots and indicate how many prints they
wanted…
Yet it still used a film and emphasized print because
Kodak was in the photo film, chemical and paper
business…
It Flopped and Kodak had to ride off $500M
almost the entire cost of development…
Kodak Continued to offer Digital Cameras and
managed to acquire 40% of the U.S. market
But…
By mid-2000, digital cameras became really popular…
By 2009, Kodak announced that it would cease selling
Kodachrome colour film ending 74 years of production…
However, digital Camera Competition was really
fierce, driving the profit margins really low…
By 2010, Kodak’s market share was down to 7% and came
in the 7th place after Canon, Sony, Nikon,and others…
Not to mention the rise of the SMARTPHONE Cameras
and APPs…
Eventually…
Sales volume went down too, as more (ASIAN)
competitors entered the market…
And…
Eventually in Jan., 2012, Kodak Filed for Chapter 11
Bankruptcy Protection…
In Feb. of 2012, Kodak announced that it will
no longer produce digital cameras…
Will Kodak be able to make a turn
around??
Share The Experience
#AUCVlab
#Cycle6
#BootCamp
AFTER THE LUNCH BREAK…
Kodak has been able to RE-EMERGE
from Bankruptcy in 2013…
By reorganizing its business operations,
creating a commercial and a consumer
units…
And Selling off or Divesting most of
its other activities.
Consumer digital imaging; film, photofinishing and entertainment, and graphic communications Units.
Focussing on digital imagining
business (B2B & B2C)…
Lets Put it All Together…
Why Kodak
Failed?
1
Kodak was making TONS of money from the film
business…
Kodak was Afraid to let go of its high profit margin film
business…
2
Kodak evaluated the digital camera as a THREAT
to its film business…
and not as an OPPORTUNITY to disrupt the
market…
Despite that they were the First ones to have a
digital camera!!!
By the time they entered the market, they treated the
camera as a TECHNOLOGY they had to supply and not
as an OFFERED VALUE to their loyal customers…
3
In 1989, Colby Chandler, the CEO, retired. The
choices came down to Phil Samper and Kay R.
Whitmore…
Whitmore represented the traditional film business,
where he had moved up the rank for three decades.
Samper had a DEEP APPRECIATION for
digital technology…
The board chose WHITMORE…
Mr. Whitmore said he would MAKE SURE Kodak stayed
closer to its core businesses in film and photographic
chemicals…
The New York Times (12/9/1989)
Whitmore lasted a little more than three years, before
the board fired him in 1993!!!
The New York Times (12/9/1989)
4
Company Culture was so RIGID for change…
Old School Employees were not ACCEPTING
the move to digital…
Vs
Kodak was DIVIDED…
Kodak Future…
Kodak Android Based SmartPhone??
Kodak Photography Apps…
Better Late than Never…
