NEW YORK — Diversified manufacturer Tyco International has acquired Brink’s Home Security Holdings in a cash-and- stock deal worth $2 billion, the companies said late Monday.
Tyco said it paid $42.50 per share for the provider of home-security services, representing a premium of more than 35 percent over Brink’s stock, which closed Friday at $31.42. Tyco will combine Brink’s with its ADT security business.
