AltruCell Corporation

The AltruCell Corporation is an evil company on How I Met Your Mother that is well known for its production of "the fuzzy stuff on tennis balls."

It was said by Ted that the company does a lot more things than making the yellow fuzzy stuff, including logging, drilling for oil, manufacturing weapons, tobacco farming, and missile construction for the government.

The company's main concern is to make the public specifically aware of their production of the tennis ball fuzz, rather than their globally known earth-destroying ventures.

Barney, who is a high-up employee of Goliath National Bank member FDIC (a subsidiary company of AltruCell), stated that he can't get fired, because of the negative and secret things he knows about the company, specifically the fact that the company considers the possibility of engaging in war against Portugal. However when a merger he handled fell through, he was in danger of getting fired.

The first time AltruCell is mentioned is in "Life Among the Gorillas."
