When Technicolor Animation Productions and Technicolor Animation were folded into the company, the company started producing and providing animation services for television shows.

In February 2025, news reports have stated that Mikros Animation's parent company had appointed administrators.^[5][6][7] On March 27 2025, it was announced that Rodeo FX would acquire Mikros Animation.^[8]

The assets acquired by Rodeo FX included its brand and operations in Paris and Montreal but not its TV division and French IPs, its service work capabilities and its studios in London, Brussels and Liege. OuiDo! Productions (which was also once previously under Technicolor) acquired the TV IPs and Mikros Animation’s TV and IP businesses in France.
