TTM Technologies, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2016 Results

Strong Execution Drives Non-GAAP EPS Well Ahead of Guidance


COSTA MESA, Calif., July 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TTM Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:TTMI), a major global printed circuit board (“PCB”) manufacturer, today reported results for the second quarter 2016, which ended June 27, 2016.  Our results include the contribution from the Viasystems Group, Inc. ("Viasystems") acquisition, which was completed on May 31, 2015.

Second Quarter 2016 Highlights

  • Net sales were $601.8 million
  • GAAP net income attributable to stockholders was $18.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share
  • Non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders was $28.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $90.2 million
  • Debt repayment of $30 million

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Net sales for the second quarter of 2016 were $601.8 million, compared to $445.4 million in the second quarter of 2015 and $583.3 million in the first quarter of 2016.

GAAP operating income for the second quarter of 2016 was $34.7 million, compared to an operating loss of $7.1 million in the second quarter of 2015 and operating income of $18.9 million in the first quarter of 2016. 

GAAP net income attributable to stockholders for the second quarter of 2016 was $18.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share.  This compares to a GAAP net loss attributable to stockholders of $36.6 million, or $0.41 per share, in the second quarter of 2015 and a GAAP net loss of $7.3 million, or $0.07 per  share, in the first quarter of 2016.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for the second quarter of 2016 was $28.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share.  This compares to non-GAAP net income of $14.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015 and $13.9 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2016 was $90.2 million, or 15 percent of net sales, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $59.7 million, or 13.4 percent of net sales, for the second quarter of 2015 and $74.5 million, or 12.8 percent of net sales, for the first quarter of 2016.

“Our second quarter results reflect continued year on year improvements in revenue and earnings as sales to our customer base in diversified end markets have dampened historical volatility,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM.  “Strong operational execution across all of our business units drove non-GAAP earnings well above the high end of our guidance.  A rebound in the cellular and communications end markets more than offset modest declines in the automotive and computing end markets, and our aerospace and defense end market hit a quarterly record in revenues.”

Business Outlook
For the third quarter of 2016, TTM estimates that revenue will be in the range of $620 million to $660 million, and non-GAAP net income will be in the range of $0.29 to $0.35 per diluted share.

About Our Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes information about TTM’s adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share, 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 reconciliation 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 attributable to stockholders, non-GAAP EPS attributable to stockholders, and adjusted EBITDA to the financial information in our consolidated condensed statements of operations.
               
 2 Non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin measures exclude stock-based compensation expense, and inventory markup.
               
 3 Non-GAAP operating income and operating margin measures exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of assets, inventory markup, acquisition-related costs, asset impairments, restructuring and other charges.
               
 4 This information provides non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders and non-GAAP EPS attributable to stockholders, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that both measures -- which add back amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense on debt (before consideration of capitalized interest), gain on sale of assets, inventory markup, acquisition-related costs, asset impairments, restructuring 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 Non-GAAP diluted number of shares used in computing non-GAAP earnings per share attributable to stockholders excludes the dilutive effect of convertible debt.
               
 6 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of assets, inventory markup, acquisition-related costs, asset impairments, restructuring 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.
