LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Platinum Equity announced today it led a recapitalization for Kodak Alaris.
Headquartered in Rochester, NY, Kodak Alaris operates two business units: Kodak Moments, a global provider of film and photo solutions; and Alaris, a leading global provider of data capture and processing solutions to enterprises and consumers. The company is owned by Kingswood Capital Management, LP.
“This transaction reflects Platinum’s ability to move quickly and decisively, even in a complex market,” said Co-Presidents Jacob Kotzubei and Louis Samson. “Our industry expertise and commitment to partnership allowed us to craft a bespoke financing solution for Kodak Alaris.”
The Kodak Alaris financing was led by Platinum Equity’s dedicated credit team, which seeks opportunities to provide debt capital to companies for a variety of uses, including acquisitions, refinancings and recapitalizations.
“We aim to be a true strategic partner, leveraging Platinum’s resources to deliver meaningful value to borrowers and their sponsors,” said Platinum Equity Managing Director and Global Head of Credit Michael Fabiano. “We think Kodak Alaris is a great match for our approach. It’s a mature business with an iconic brand and a deep connection to its customer base. We believe it also has a lot of untapped commercial opportunity. We are excited to partner with Kingswood to help Kodak Alaris realize its potential.”
Platinum’s credit team targets companies that generally have $15 to $75 million of EBITDA and are primarily based in North America.
