However, the broader market as represented by the NYSE closed in negative territory today, with losses reaching 0.56% to EUR18,1112.04. However, Kodak remains notable as its stock has seen consistent upward movement over recent months.
Noteworthy is Kodak’s last closing price of EUR4.86 which stands 23.34% below its 52-week high of EUR6.34. This shows that even with recent growth, there remains room for recovery before reaching this benchmark level again.
About Kodak

Yearly Analysis
Based on this information, Kodak’s stock is currently trading at EUR4.65, significantly below its 52-week high of EUR6.34 but above its 52-week low of EUR3.117 – suggesting a period of high volatility over the past year.
Kodak’s EBITDA stands at 32.65, offering insight into its financial performance. EBITDA serves as a measure of profitability; therefore, an increased EBITDA may indicate significant profits being generated by the company. However, EBITDA doesn’t take into account certain expenses such as interest payments, taxes due, depreciation costs or amortization which could impede an organization’s overall health.
Overall, when making investment decisions, investors should carefully consider both the stock’s valuation and financial performance of its company. Furthermore, research may provide additional insight into growth prospects, industry trends, or competitive landscape to gain a comprehensive view of potential success for any given investment.
Technical Analysis
Kodak stock has seen a substantial surge in value recently, surpassing both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages (EUR3.78 and EUR4.30 respectively), signalling an upward trend.
Notably, however, is that its last reported volume of 962,691 is 43.75% lower than its average volume of 1,314,160 and this may suggest that any recent price increases were driven by decreased trading activity rather than simply by price growth itself – something to keep an eye on as potential warning signals.
Kodak stock’s intraday variation average over the past week, month, and quarter was 0.21%; its intraday variation average was 2.47% for last month; 3.65% for last quarter; and its highest amplitude of average volatility reached 1.47% last week, 5.69% last month and 3.65% last quarter; these figures suggest relatively low volatility recently but may have been more volatile previously.
According to the stochastic oscillator, Kodak stock is currently classified as oversold (=20), suggesting it could be undervalued and providing investors with an opportunity to purchase at lower prices; however it should be remembered that low volumes could make investing difficult in this instance.
Quarter Analysis
Revenue Growth:
Year-on-year revenue growth has declined 6.9% year over year for the twelve trailing months to 1.15B, signalling that company revenue is no longer expanding as quickly. Investors must monitor revenue growth closely as this can indicate whether a company can generate profits and return value back to shareholders; however, other factors must also be taken into consideration, including expenses, profit margins and market conditions when evaluating financial performance of companies.
Equity Analysis
Kodak currently generates an EPS of EUR0.67 over its trailing twelve month period, signifying that investors can expect an average net profit per share of EUR0.67 from this company.
Kodak currently boasts a trailing twelve month price-earnings ratio of 6.93, which indicates investors are paying EUR6.93 for every euro of annual earnings. A lower PE ratio may indicate undervaluation while higher PE ratios indicate overvaluation.
Kodak’s Return on Equity (ROE) for the twelve trailing months stands at 6.79%. ROE measures the profitability of a business relative to shareholder’s equity and can be calculated by dividing net income by shareholder’s equity. A higher ROE may indicate that shareholders’ funds are producing greater returns, but ROE alone may not give an accurate picture of its financial health.
