SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland — November 16, 2011 — Tyco International Ltd. (NYSE: TYC) today reported $0.83 in diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2011 and diluted EPS from continuing operations before special items of $0.92 per share. Revenue in the quarter of $4.7 billion increased 14% versus the prior year excluding the Electrical & Metal Products business, which is now reported as an equity investment, while organic revenue grew 6%. Foreign currency contributed 5 percentage points to overall revenue growth.

For full year 2011, the company reported $3.27 in diluted EPS from continuing operations and diluted EPS from continuing operations before special items of $3.24 per share. Revenue of $17.4 billion increased 9% excluding the Electrical & Metal Products business with organic revenue growth of 4%. Cash from operating activities was $2.4 billion. Free cash flow of $1.1 billion included net cash payments of $252 million primarily for restructuring and legacy tax matters.

Commenting on Tyco’s results, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ed Breen said: “We delivered a very solid quarter with strong organic revenue growth and continued operating margin improvement which helped drive a 24% increase in earnings per share. Throughout the year, we continued to increase our investment in R&D and technology while completing strategic acquisitions to strengthen our core security, fire and flow control businesses. With our strong base of recurring and service revenue, continuing order momentum in our late cycle businesses and our focus on restructuring and productivity initiatives, we are well-positioned for continued growth in 2012.”

“We are on track with our recently-announced plan to separate Tyco into three standalone public companies in this fiscal year. This marks an exciting new opportunity for all three companies to pursue their own focused growth strategies and create significant shareholder value,” Breen added.

Organic revenue, free cash flow and operating income, operating margin, income and diluted EPS from continuing operations before special items are non-GAAP financial measures and are described below. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, see the attached tables. Additional schedules as well as Fourth Quarter Review slides can be found at www.tyco.com on the Investor Relations portion of Tyco’s website.

SEGMENT RESULTS

The financial results presented in the tables below are in accordance with GAAP unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts are pre-tax and stated in millions. All comparisons are to the fiscal fourth quarter of 2010 or full year unless otherwise indicated.

Security Solutions

Revenue of $2.3 billion increased 11% in the quarter with organic revenue growth of 6%. Recurring revenue grew 5% organically while non-recurring revenue grew 7% organically. Both recurring and non-recurring revenue continued to grow in all geographic regions.

Operating income was $364 million in the quarter and the operating margin was 16%. Special items of $10 million consisted primarily of integration charges related to acquisitions. Operating income before special items was $374 million and the operating margin improved 100 basis points to 16.4%.

Full year revenue of $8.6 billion increased 12% year-over-year with organic revenue growth of 5%. Operating income was $1.36 billion and included $58 million of special items. Operating income before special items was $1.42 billion and the operating margin improved 180 basis points to 16.5%.

The increase in operating income for the quarter and full year resulted from growth in ADT’s higher-margin recurring revenue business, improvement in the commercial business in all geographic regions and the continued benefit of restructuring and cost reduction activities.

Fire Protection

3

Revenue of $1.3 billion increased 11% in the quarter with organic revenue growth of 4%. Organic revenue increased 6% in service and 8% in fire products while systems installation declined 1% due to project selectivity and continued softness in the non-residential construction market. Due to normal seasonal decline, backlog of $1.13 billion decreased 9% on a quarter-sequential basis, excluding the impact of foreign currency.

Operating income was $172 million in the quarter and the operating margin was 12.9%. Special items of $11 million consisted primarily of divestiture and restructuring costs. Operating income before special items was $183 million and the operating margin improved 160 basis points to 13.7%.

Full year revenue of $4.7 billion increased 5% with organic revenue growth of 4%. Operating income was $534 million and included $69 million of special items. Operating income before special items was $603 million and the operating margin improved 150 basis points to 12.7%.

The increase in operating income for the quarter and full year was driven largely by increased volume and the benefit of productivity initiatives.

Flow Control

Revenue of $1.1 billion increased 25% in the quarter with organic revenue growth of 9.5%.  Organic revenue growth of 13% in Valves and 34% in Thermal Controls was partially offset by an 18% decline in the Water business. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, orders increased 14% year-over-year and backlog increased 4% to $1.74 billion on a quarter-sequential basis.

Operating income was $124 million in the quarter and the operating margin was 11.5%. Restructuring and acquisition costs in the quarter were fully offset by divestiture gains.

4

Full year revenue of $3.6 billion increased 8% with organic revenue growth of 1%. Operating income was $413 million and the operating margin was 11.3%. Operating income before special items was $421 million and the operating margin was 11.6%.

The year-over-year operating margin decline for the quarter and full year was primarily attributable to the contribution of a large project in the Pacific Water business in the prior-year.

OTHER ITEMS

·                  The company’s fiscal 2011 consisted of 53 weeks compared to 52 weeks in fiscal 2010. The additional week contributed an estimated $143 million in revenue to the fourth quarter and full year for fiscal 2011. Organic revenue growth and orders growth have been adjusted downwards to exclude the impact of the additional week.

·                  Corporate expense excluding special items was $107 million in the quarter and $392 million for the year.

·                  The effective tax rate for the quarter and full year before special items was 15.5%.

·                  The company completed the year with $1.4 billion in cash and cash equivalents.

·                  For the full year, the company purchased 30 million shares for $1.3 billion. To date in fiscal 2012, the company has repurchased 5 million shares for $200 million.

·                  During the quarter, Tyco continued to strengthen its core platforms by completing the acquisition of Dubai-based KEF Holdings for its flow control business and Texas-based Chemguard, Inc. for its fire protection business. In addition, the company announced an agreement in September to acquire Israel-based Visonic Ltd, a global developer and manufacturer of electronic security systems.

·                  On September 19, 2011, Tyco announced its intention to separate into three independent, publicly traded companies. Completion of the proposed separation is subject to conditions including final approval by the Tyco Board of Directors, receipt of a tax opinion from counsel, the filing and effectiveness of registration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and approval by Tyco shareholders.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Organic revenue, free cash flow (outflow) (FCF), and income from continuing operations, earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations, operating income, operating margin and corporate expense, in each case “before special items,” are non-GAAP measures and should not be considered replacements for GAAP results.

Organic revenue is a useful measure used by the company to measure the underlying results and trends in the business. The difference between reported net revenue (the most comparable GAAP measure) and organic revenue (the non-GAAP measure) consists of the impact from foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and other changes that do not reflect the underlying results and trends (for example, revenue reclassifications). Effective the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company’s organic growth / decline calculations incorporate an estimate of prior year reported revenue associated with acquired entities that have been fully integrated within the first year (such as Broadview Security), and exclude prior year revenues associated with entities that do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations which have been divested within the past year. The rate of organic growth or decline is calculated based on the adjusted number to better reflect the rate of growth or decline of the combined business, in the case of acquisitions, or the remaining business, in the case of dispositions. The rate of organic growth or decline for acquired businesses that are not fully integrated within the first year will continue to be based on unadjusted historical revenue. Organic revenue and the rate of organic growth

6

or decline as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Organic revenue is a useful measure of the company’s performance because it excludes items that: i) are not completely under management’s control, such as the impact of foreign currency exchange; or ii) do not reflect the underlying results of the company’s businesses, such as acquisitions and divestitures. It may be used as a component of the company’s compensation programs. The limitation of this measure is that it excludes items that have an impact on the company’s revenue. This limitation is best addressed by using organic revenue in combination with the GAAP numbers. See the accompanying tables to this press release for the reconciliation presenting the components of organic revenue.

FCF is a useful measure of the company’s cash which is free from any significant existing obligation. The difference between Cash Flows from Operating Activities (the most comparable GAAP measure) and FCF (the non-GAAP measure) consists mainly of significant cash flows that the company believes are useful to identify. FCF permits management and investors to gain insight into the number that management employs to measure cash that is free from any significant existing obligation. It, or a measure that is based on it, may be used as a component in the company’s incentive compensation plans. The difference reflects the impact from:

·                  net capital expenditures,

·                  accounts purchased by ADT,

·                  cash paid for purchase accounting and holdback liabilities, voluntary pension contributions, and

·                  the sale of accounts receivable programs.

Capital expenditures and accounts purchased by ADT are subtracted because they represent long-term commitments. Cash paid for purchase accounting and holdback liabilities is subtracted because these cash outflows are not available for general corporate uses. Voluntary pension contributions and the impact from the sale of accounts receivable programs are added or subtracted because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity.

The limitation associated with using FCF is that it adjusts for cash items that are ultimately within management’s and the Board of Directors’ discretion to direct and therefore may imply that there is less or more cash that is available for the company’s programs than the most comparable GAAP measure. This limitation is best addressed by using FCF in combination with the GAAP cash flow numbers.

FCF as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The measure should be used in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures. Investors are urged to read the company’s financial statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the accompanying tables to this press release that show all the elements of the GAAP measures of Cash Flows from Operating Activities, Cash Flows from Investing Activities, Cash Flows from Financing Activities and a reconciliation of the company’s total cash and cash equivalents for the period. See the accompanying tables to this press release for a cash flow statement presented in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation presenting the components of FCF.

The company has presented its income and EPS from continuing operations, operating income and margin, and its corporate expense before special items. Special items include charges and gains related to divestitures, acquisitions, restructurings, impairments, legacy legal and tax charges and other income or charges that may mask the underlying operating results and/or business trends of the company or business segment, as applicable. The company utilizes these measures to assess overall operating performance and segment level core operating performance, as well as to provide insight to management in evaluating overall and segment

7

operating plan execution and underlying market conditions. The Company also presents its effective tax rate as adjusted for special items for consistency. One or more of these measures may be used as components in the company’s incentive compensation plans. These measures are useful for investors because they may permit more meaningful comparisons of the company’s underlying operating results and business trends between periods. The difference between income and EPS from continuing operations before special items and income and EPS from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP measures) consists of the impact of the special items noted above on the applicable GAAP measure. Operating income and margin before special items do not reflect any additional adjustments that are not reflected in income from continuing operations before special items. The limitation of these measures is that they exclude the impact (which may be material) of items that increase or decrease the company’s reported operating income and margin and operating income and EPS from continuing operations. This limitation is best addressed by using the non-GAAP measures in combination with the most comparable GAAP measures in order to better understand the amounts, character and impact of any increase or decrease on reported results.  Tyco provides general corporate services to its segments and those costs are reported in the “Corporate and Other” segment. This segment’s operating income (loss) is presented as “Corporate Expense.”
