Kodak kick starts its year at the NYSE

Rejuvenated graphics giant Kodak celebrated its recent relisting on the New York Stock Exchange by ringing the exchange’s opening bell.

Following the company’s emergence from reorganisation in September, Kodak common shares began trading on the world’s largest stock exchange at the beginning of November.

Antonio Perez, president and chief executive officer of Kodak says, “This bell ringing is a symbol of Kodak’s remarkable transformation. It’s a new year, with a new company, a new stock and a new start. We are a B2B company focused on innovating for our customers and delivering value to our shareholders. This bell ringing has extra significance for everyone at the new Kodak because we are reaffirming our strong connections with our customers by having some of them join us at this event.”
The new Kodak describes itself as a global technology company offering breakthrough solutions and professional services in the packaging, graphic communications and functional printing markets. Kodak adds that it leverages its technical expertise to drive change in the industry, with new applications and a broad product portfolio.

The company will continue push its range of products such as its Prosper presses and imprinting systems; Flexcel packaging solutions; Squarespot laser imaging technology; and Sonora XP process free plates.
