A decade later: LI companies that merged or sold
These eight firms fell from Newsday's Top Companies list in the past 10 years.
In 2004, Long Island had 100 top companies in the annual Newsday ranking of local public businesses, but in the 10 years that have passed the bulk have fallen off of our list.
So what happened?
As part of our 2014 Top Companies coverage, we looked at the list Newsday ran in 2004 to find out just what changed for the firms once named among Long Island's most powerful businesses. In some cases they just moved, in others they were sold or went private. In a few cases, they actually closed down. We used past Newsday reports, company releases or Securities and Exchange Commission filings to compile the data.
The list in the link above shows the firms that either were sold or merged with another company since 2004.
