QUARTERLY SALES ($ mill.)
CalFull There is a lot riding on the development of
endar Mar.Per Jun.Per Sep.Per Dec.Per Year the digital business, but recent results
2005 2832 3686 3553 4197 14268 show there is still much to do. Indeed, the

support the initiative. Although bold, we

like the decision, as the lower share count
will not only prop up earnings growth
while the digital business is remedied, but
demonstrates managements confidence in
its ongoing endeavors. Still, weve trimmed
our 2008 and 2009 share-net figures to
$0.25 and $1.05, respectively.
The stock will likely remain a market
laggard for the coming six to 12
months. We suspect that the company is
still a ways from making its digital business profitable and that its troubles will
continue to repress stock price expansion.
EK is ranked 5 (Lowest) for Timeliness.
Investors considering this recovery
candidate are advised to be extremely
cautious. Although Eastman stock is
trading near its 40-plus-year low, and may
look appealing to bargain hunters, we are
concerned about the companys ability to
sustain the earnings momentum we forecast for 2009. EK is playing catch-up in a
rapidly evolving market, thus putting it a
distinct disadvantage if a new trend
emerges. We sense that management is
being reactive rather than proactive.
