Bernard,
Your assumptions are not correct. Almost the opposite of what you are
saying is happening.

I suspect that the state of their business is to sell-off or close-
down divisions at the end of every fiscal quarter until nothing is
left but a devalued brand name.
Kodak's consumer digital cameras have been among the best on the
market (in terms of value and image quality), but they will soon
find out that other companies can buy the same cameras from the
same contract manufacturers and sell them cheaper.
Rollei content: the new Rollei is following the same strategy
(albeit on a smaller scale). Hopefully, the spinoff (Franke &
Heidecke) will outlive its parent.
