Sahm Adrangi's Kerrisdale Capital Issues Negative Report on Eastman Kodak Company
- Kerrisdale and Chief Investor Officer Sahm Adrangi believe that KODAKOne and KODAKCoin are critically flawed and will never provide material benefit for Kodak shareholders. Shares have risen on unjustified hype.
- WENN Digital Inc., lead developer of KODAKOne, and its strategic advisor on the KODAKCoin ICO, AppCoin Innovations Inc., are companies with highly dubious backgrounds.
- Members of Kodak's board of directors granted themselves restricted stock the day before announcing the launch of KODAKOne, a suspicious act that bears material risk of drawing an SEC investigation.
- Kodak's announced partnerships will not save the company from declining revenues, negative free cash flow and mounting default risk.
