TTM Technologies, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Results

Santa Ana, CA – February 7, 2024 – TTM Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTMI), a leading global manufacturer of technology solutions including mission systems, radio frequency (“RF”) components and RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies, and quick-turn and technologically advanced printed circuit boards (“PCB”), today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023, which ended on January 1, 2024.

--- ---
Non-GAAP net income was $43.0 million, or $0.41 per diluted<br>share

Fourth Quarter 2023 GAAP Financial Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2023 were $569.0 million, compared to $617.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $34.6 million. GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $97.6 million and included a gain of $51.8 million in December 2022 from the sale of the property occupied by our former Shanghai E-MS entity.

GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $17.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $6.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Non-GAAP Financial Results

On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $43.0 million, or $0.41 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $42.7 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2023 was $80.9 million, or 14.2% of sales compared to adjusted EBITDA of $81.6 million, or 13.2% of sales for the fourth quarter of 2022.

“TTM executed a strong finish to the year registering a Non-GAAP EPS that was above the high end of the guided range due to excellent operating performance and favorable product mix. Revenues were within the guided range as upside in our Aerospace and Defense and Data Center Computing end markets was offset by demand softness in our Automotive and Medical, Industrial and Instrumentation end markets,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM. “In addition, cash flow from operations was a healthy 8.3% of revenue enabling us to repurchase stock while maintaining a solid balance sheet with a net leverage ratio of 1.6x. Finally, our Penang facility has all major processes running and we are currently sampling product to customers,” concluded Mr. Edman.

Full Year 2023 Results

Net sales for 2023 decreased to $2.2 billion from $2.5 billion in 2022, an 11% decrease.

GAAP operating income for 2023 was $42.3 million, inclusive of a $44.1 million goodwill impairment charge related to the RF&S Components segment. This is a decrease from GAAP operating income of $210.4 million in 2022.

GAAP net loss for 2023 was $18.7 million, or ($0.18) per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $94.6 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, in 2022.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income for 2023 was $139.5 million, or $1.33 per diluted share. This compares to 2022 non-GAAP net income of $181.2 million, or $1.74 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA for 2023 was $298.2 million, or 13.4% of net sales, compared to $343.1 million, or 13.8% of net sales, for 2022.

“We delivered solid results in 2023 despite a challenging year. Declines in our commercial end markets were partially offset with growth in our Aerospace and Defense end market. Better product mix and execution in North America and Asia Pacific helped to mitigate margin declines,” continued Edman. “We refinanced our Term Loan and ABL, improving tenor, resulting in no maturities until 2028. Finally, in 2023, we generated $187.3 million in operating cash flow which enabled us to strengthen our balance sheet, while returning $24.4 million of capital to our shareholders.”

Business Outlook

For the first quarter of 2024, TTM estimates that revenues will be in the range of $530 million to $570 million, and non-GAAP net income will be in the range of $0.24 to $0.30 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, 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.

Live Webcast/Conference Call

TTM will host a conference call and webcast to discuss fourth quarter 2023 results and the first quarter 2024 outlook on Wednesday, February 7, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (8:00 a.m. Pacific Time). The conference call will include forward-looking statements.

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-K 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. This release contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events or performance. TTM cautions you that such statements are simply predictions and actual events or results may differ materially. These statements reflect TTM’s current expectations, and TTM does not undertake to update or revise these forward looking statements, even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied in this or other TTM statements will not be realized. 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, the impact of COVID-19, 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 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 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.

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<br>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<br>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<br>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.
