The loan was intended to help Kodak launch a new pharmaceutical supply business that would produce components deemed critical in the battle against COVID-19.

Kodak was to play a key role in this endeavor. Now, however, those plans have been placed on indefinite hold until Kodak is cleared of any wrongdoing. And judging by Navarro's comments, it may be some time before Kodak actually receives the $765 million in funding, if at all.
Is Kodak being investigated?
