Insights

Financial Analyst

TTM Technologies reports exceptional Q1 with 14% revenue growth, 79% EPS growth, and significant margin expansion driven by AI and defense demand.

TTM Technologies' Q1 2025 results demonstrate remarkable financial performance across all key metrics. Revenue reached $648.7 million, showing a robust 14% year-over-year increase from the $570.1 million reported in Q1 2024. This impressive growth was primarily driven by strong demand in three key markets: Aerospace & Defense, Data Center Computing, and Networking - with the latter two benefiting significantly from generative AI expansion.

The profitability improvements are even more striking. Non-GAAP net income surged to $52.4 million ($0.50 per diluted share), representing a 79% increase from $29.1 million ($0.28 per share) in the prior-year period. This marks a record high for any first quarter in the company's history. Similarly, Adjusted EBITDA reached $99.5 million, constituting 15.3% of sales, a substantial improvement from 12.4% in Q1 2024.

Particularly noteworthy is TTM's achievement of 10.5% non-GAAP operating margins, marking the third consecutive quarter of double-digit margins and reflecting a remarkable 340 basis point improvement year-over-year. This consistent margin expansion demonstrates the company's successful operational execution.

Looking forward, key indicators remain positive with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.10 and an Aerospace & Defense program backlog of $1.55 billion, providing solid visibility for future revenue. The only slight negative was $10.7 million cash usage from operations, attributed to working capital increases.

For Q2 2025, management projects continued momentum with revenue guidance of $650-690 million and non-GAAP EPS of $0.49-0.55, indicating confidence in near-term business performance.

SANTA ANA, Calif., April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TTM Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTMI) (“TTM”), a leading global manufacturer of technology solutions, including mission systems, radio frequency (“RF”) components, RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies, and quick-turn and technologically advanced printed circuit boards (“PCB”s) today reported results for the first quarter 2025, which ended on March 31, 2025.

First Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Net sales were $648.7 million, up 14% year on year

• Non-GAAP net income of $52.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, a record high for a first quarter
• Cash usage from operations of $10.7 million due to an increase in working capital
• Book to bill of 1.10 for the first quarter
• A&D program backlog $1.55 billion

First Quarter 2025 GAAP Financial Results
Net sales for the first quarter of 2025 were $648.7 million, compared to $570.1 million in the first quarter of 2024.

GAAP operating income for the first quarter of 2025 was $50.3 million compared to GAAP operating income for the first quarter of 2024 of $17.1 million.

GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $32.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2024 of $10.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.

First Quarter 2025 Non-GAAP Financial Results
On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $52.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $29.1 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2025 was $99.5 million, or 15.3% of sales compared to adjusted EBITDA of $70.5 million, or 12.4% of sales for the first quarter of 2024.

“We delivered a strong quarter with revenues and non-GAAP EPS above the high end of the guided range. Revenues grew 14% year on year due to demand strength in our Aerospace and Defense, Data Center Computing and Networking end markets, the latter two being driven by generative AI,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM. “Non-GAAP operating margins were 10.5%, up 340 basis points year on year, and were double digit for the third consecutive quarter, reflecting continued solid execution, particularly in a normally challenging first quarter. Finally, non-GAAP EPS was a record high for a first quarter at $0.50 per diluted share,” concluded Mr. Edman.

Business Outlook
For the second quarter of 2025, TTM estimates that revenues will be in the range of $650 million to $690 million, and non-GAAP net income will be in the range of $0.49 to $0.55 per diluted share.

With respect to the Company’s outlook for non-GAAP net income per diluted share, we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty or without unreasonable effort certain items that may affect a comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our expected non-GAAP net income per diluted share excludes primarily the future impact of restructuring actions, impairment charges, unusual gains and losses including but not limited to unrealized foreign exchange translation, and tax adjustments. These reconciling items are highly variable and difficult to predict due to various factors outside of management’s control and could have a material impact on our future period net income per diluted share calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, a reconciliation of non-GAAP net income per diluted share to a comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP has not been provided because the Company is unable to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, TTM is unable to address the probable significance of the information.

Forward-Looking Statements
The preliminary financial results included in this press release represent the most current information available to management. The company’s actual results when disclosed in its Form 10-Q may differ from these preliminary results as a result of the completion of the company’s financial closing procedures, final adjustments, completion of the review by the company’s independent registered accounting firm, and other developments that may arise between now and the disclosure of the final results.

Further, these statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond TTM's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general market and economic conditions, including interest rates, currency exchange rates, and consumer spending, demand for TTM's products, market pressures on prices of TTM's products, warranty claims, changes in product mix, contemplated significant capital expenditures and related financing requirements, TTM's dependence upon a small number of customers, and other factors set forth in the "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of the Company's public reports filed with the SEC.

About Our Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated condensed financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, this release includes information about TTM’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share and non-GAAP operating margins, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. TTM presents non-GAAP financial information to enable investors to see TTM through the eyes of management and to provide better insight into TTM’s ongoing financial performance.

A material limitation associated with the use of the above non-GAAP financial measures is that they have no standardized measurement prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. TTM compensates for these limitations by providing full disclosure of each non-GAAP financial measure and reconciliations below to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. However, the non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

1 This information provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, and adjusted EBITDA to the financial information in our consolidated condensed statements of operations. Prior year results have been revised to exclude the impact of unrealized loss (gain) on foreign exchange from non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, and adjusted EBITDA - refer to the revised historical non-GAAP financial information in the Form 8-K filed on February 5, 2025 for further information.

2 Non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin measures exclude amortization of definite-lived intangibles, stock-based compensation, unrealized gain on commodity hedge, and other charges.

3 Non-GAAP operating income and operating margin measures exclude amortization of definite-lived intangibles, stock-based compensation, unrealized gain on commodity hedge, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges.

4 This information provides non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that both measures -- which add back amortization of definite-lived intangibles, stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, unrealized gain on commodity hedge, unrealized loss (gain) on foreign exchange, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges as well as the associated tax impact of these charges and discrete tax items -- provide additional useful information to investors regarding the Company's ongoing financial condition and results of operations.

5 Income tax adjustments reflect the difference between income taxes based on a non-GAAP tax rate and a forecasted annual GAAP tax rate.

6 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before income tax provision, interest expense, amortization of definite-lived intangibles, depreciation expense, stock-based compensation, unrealized gain on commodity hedge, unrealized loss (gain) on foreign exchange, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges. We present adjusted EBITDA to enhance the understanding of our operating results, and it is a key measure we use to evaluate our operations. In addition, we provide our adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find adjusted EBITDA to be a useful measure for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. However, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
