News Media Investor Relations Glenn Bozarth Mike Salop 310-252-3521 310-252-2703 MATTEL REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS, REMAINS ON-TRACK TO ACHIEVE 1997 TARGETS LOS ANGELES, April 24 -- Mattel, Inc. today reported net income of $13 million or $.05 per share for the 1997 first quarter before its merger with Tyco Toys, Inc. and the impact of a charge related to integration and restructuring. The $.05 per share is after a negative impact related to the strength of the U.S. dollar, and compares with $.11 per share in the 1996 quarter. The company had earlier indicated that it expected first quarter earnings to be in the range of $.01 to $.04 per share. First quarter net sales for Mattel alone were $569 million in U.S. dollars, down 3 percent from $586 million in the year-ago quarter, but were flat in local currencies. "Worldwide demand for our core brands is extremely strong," Jill Barad, Mattel's president and chief executive officer, said. "Sales for Barbie were up 10 percent, Disney sales were up more than 20 percent and Hot Wheels sales nearly doubled. Fisher-Price sales were down 29 percent from last year, but our strategy to focus on our core preschool toy business is working, as retail take-away for Fisher-Price toys was up by 9 percent," she said. "Both Mattel U.S. and worldwide core brand sales, excluding Fisher-Price, were up 19 percent." -more- 2-2-2-2-2 Consolidated earnings for Mattel and Tyco were $.01 per share before a pre-tax charge of $275 million related to the Tyco integration and Mattel restructuring, which is expected to result in savings of $700 million over the next five years. After the charge, Mattel reported a first quarter net loss of $205 million. Consolidated sales were $694 million, up 1 percent from a combined $684 million in the 1996 quarter. "Tyco products were also in strong demand, with a sales increase of 27 percent led by the strength of the Tyco core brands of Sesame Street, Matchbox and Magna Doodle," Barad said. "Our integration and restructuring activities are well underway, and will result in global growth opportunities and pre-tax savings of $60 million this year and $160 million per year in 1998 and beyond," she said. "We remain solidly on track to achieve our full-year targets for 1997." Mattel, Inc. is the worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of children's toys. With headquarters in El Segundo, California, Mattel has offices and facilities in 36 countries and sells its products in more than 140 nations throughout the world. Note: Forward-looking statements included in this release with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of the company, which include, but are not limited to, the restructuring charge, cost savings and profitability, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in such statements. These include without limitation: the company's dependence on the timely development, introduction and customer acceptance of new products; possible weaknesses of international markets; the impact of competition on revenues and margins; the effect of currency fluctuations on reportable income; and other risks and uncertainties as may be detailed from time to time in the company's public announcements and SEC filings. -###- MATTEL, INC.

(310) 252-3521 BYRON DAVIS RETIRES, GARY BAUGHMAN NAMED PRESIDENT, FISHER-PRICE ------------------------------------------- LOS ANGELES, April 21 -- Mattel, Inc. today announced that Byron Davis, president of Fisher-Price, has made the decision to retire, and to move to South Carolina, where he looks forward to spending more time with his family. He will be succeeded by Gary Baughman, the former president and chief executive officer of Tyco Toys, Inc. The two executives will work together over the next few weeks to ensure a smooth transition. "Byron Davis has played a key role in the successful integration of Mattel and Fisher-Price, and in helping grow Fisher-Price into the #1 preschool brand in the world," Jill Barad, Mattel's president and chief executive officer, said. "We thank Byron for his many contributions during his 23 years with the company, and we wish him the best. "Gary Baughman will now be responsible for the Fisher-Price business, as well as the Sesame Street brand that joined us through the Tyco merger," Barad said. "We've worked closely with Gary over the past six months, and found him to be an outstanding manager with a keen understanding of the toy business. He particularly understands the Infant and Preschool category, having helped build Sesame Street, led by the success of Tickle Me Elmo, into a $100 million business," she said. -more- 2-2-2-2-2 Baughman, who is chairman-elect of the Toy Manufacturers of America, was Tyco's chief executive officer since January, 1996.

He had joined Little Tikes after serving as president of Evenflo Products Co. from 1986 through 1989 and president of Stiffel Lamps from 1981 to 1986. "During his career, Gary has demonstrated the ability to both turn companies around, as he did at Tyco and Evenflo, and to capitalize on high growth opportunities, as he did at Little Tikes," Barad said. "He will be an excellent addition to our management team." Baughman received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Brigham Young University and an MBA from the University of Michigan. Mattel is the worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of children's toys. With headquarters in El Segundo, California, Mattel has offices and facilities in 36 countries and sells its products in more than 140 nations throughout the world. -###-
