Answer: Eastman Kodak Company
Eastman Kodak Company (OTCQB: EKDKQ), commonly known as Kodak, is an American multinational imaging and photographic equipment, materials and services company headquartered in Rochester, New York, United States and incorporated in New Jersey. It was founded by George Eastman in 1889.
Kodak is best known for its wide range of photographic film products. During most of the 20th century Kodak held a dominant position in photographic film, and in 1976 had a 90% market share of photographic film sales in the United States. The company's ubiquity was such that its tagline "Kodak moment" entered common lexicon as a personal event that demanded to be recorded for posterity.
On January 19, 2012, Kodak filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and obtained a $950 million, 18-month credit facility from Citigroup to enable it to continue trading.
On February 9, 2012 Kodak said that it will stop making digital cameras, pocket video cameras and digital picture frames in the first half of 2012. Kodak will focus on photo printing, through retail and online services as well as desktop inkjet devices and will instead license its brand name to other camera manufacturers.
