Tyco Acquisition Corp VI company history timeline

1970

Tyco remained a private, relatively small-scale company producing model trains and racing sets until the Tyler family sold the company to Consolidated Foods in 1970.

1991

Under Grey's persuasion, the board named two more outsiders as members, and in 1991 the Selzer family agreed to sell their stake in the company.

1992

As Grey stated to Business Week in 1992, "Not everything they [Selzer's board] did was terrible but a couple of things were absolutely self-serving."

Tyco's biggest acquisition was its 1992 purchase of Universal Matchbox Group at a cost of $106 million.

1993

In 1993, for example, Tyco signed an exclusive master toy license with Warner Bros. to produce toys based on such popular Looney Tunes characters as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Road Runner.

1994

In 1994, Tyco took steps to combine the operations of Tyco Germany into the Matchbox Germany facility in Hoesbach, eliminating duplicated functions and overlapping staff to result in substantial operating efficiencies.

Although income improved in 1994 with domestic sales rising approximately ten percent, Tyco still posted a net loss of $35 million, much of it associated with the European restructuring.
