EASTMAN KODAK SELLS HEALTH BRANCH

Eastman Kodak Co. made its last move out of the health care business Tuesday, announcing the sale of its clinical diagnostics division to Johnson & Johnson for about $1 billion in cash.

The deal comes just a week after Kodak said it was selling Sterling Health, its over-the-counter products division, to the British pharmaceutical company SmithKline Beecham PLC for $2.9 billion.
