Fourth Quarter 2013 Financial Results
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $366.1 million compared to $338.7 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $381.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Fourth quarter 2012 revenue included $22 million of revenue from TTM's SYE plant, in which TTM sold its controlling equity interest during the second quarter of 2013.
GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $29.3 million compared to an operating loss of $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2013 and operating income of $20.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.
GAAP net income attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $11.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. This compares to a GAAP net loss attributable to stockholders of $7.7 million, or $0.09 per share, in the third quarter of 2013 and net income of $13.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2012.
On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $22.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders of $11.6 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013 and $19.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $58.4 million, or 16.0 percent of net sales, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $42.3 million, or 12.5 percent of net sales, for the third quarter of 2013 and $52.5 million, or 13.7 percent of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2012.
"We delivered strong results for the fourth quarter as seasonal revenue growth combined with solid execution resulted in increases in gross margins and operating profit," said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM. "Revenue came in toward the high end of our guidance range and non-GAAP earnings were above our expectations for the quarter. Strong demand for our advanced HDI and rigid-flex PCBs used in smartphones, tablets and e-readers in particular drove our product mix shift toward advanced technology PCBs and brought our Asia Pacific factory utilization rates above 90%."
Full Year 2013 Financial Results
Net sales for fiscal year 2013 increased to $1.4 billion from $1.3 billion in fiscal year 2012.
GAAP operating income for fiscal year 2013 was $69.1 million, an increase from an operating loss of $142.0 million in fiscal year 2012. Included in operating results were charges for severance and asset impairments of $14.2 million in 2013 and non-cash charges for goodwill and other asset impairments of $218.4 million in 2012.
GAAP net income attributable to stockholders for fiscal year 2013 was $21.9 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $174.6 million, or $2.13 per share, for fiscal year 2012.
On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for fiscal year 2013 was $51.3 million, or $0.62 per diluted share. This compares to fiscal year 2012 non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders of $69.8 million, or $0.85 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2013 was $181.3 million, or 13.3 percent of net sales, compared to $190.6 million, or 14.1 percent of net sales, for fiscal year 2012.
"During 2013, we implemented a number of key initiatives to increase operational efficiencies and improve our margin profile. We believe actions such as the divesture of the SYE plant and the closure of the MAS facility will improve our cost structure over time," continued Edman.
"As we enter 2014, we expect a normal seasonal decline in our business in the first half of the year followed by an increase in the second half. Longer term, we believe we are well positioned to extend our leadership position in the PCB industry by delivering advanced technology to a broad customer base across diverse end markets," concluded Edman.
Business Outlook
Our first quarter 2014 guidance reflects the seasonal decline in business in our cell phone and computing end markets. For the first quarter of 2014, TTM estimates that revenue will be in the range of $290 million to $310 million, and non-GAAP earnings in the range of $0.03 to $0.09 per diluted share.

About Our Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes information about the Company's non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders and non-GAAP earnings per share attributable to stockholders, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company presents non-GAAP financial information to enable investors to see the company through the eyes of management and to provide better insight into the Company's ongoing financial performance.
Management believes that the non-GAAP financial information – which add back amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense on debt, asset impairments, restructuring and other unusual or infrequent items (such as the gain realized on the SYE transaction) as well as the associated tax impact of these charges and discrete tax items – provides additional useful information to investors regarding the Company's ongoing financial condition and results of operations.
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. The Company 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.
Safe Harbor Statement
This release contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events or performance. These statements reflect the Company's current expectations, and the Company 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 company statements will not be realized. Furthermore, readers are cautioned that these statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the company'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 company's dependence upon the electronics industry, contemplated significant capital expenditures and related financing requirements, the Company's dependence upon a small number of customers, the unpredictability of and potential fluctuation in future revenues and operating results and other "Risk Factors" set forth in the Company's most recent SEC filings.

| 1 Certain reclassifications of prior year end market percentages have been made to conform to the current year presentation. Beginning in the first quarter of 2013, we reclassified substrate PCBs, which were included in the Other end market, into the end markets that the substrate PCBs are sold into - predominantly Cellular Phone. |
| 2 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 statements of operations. |
| 3 Non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin measures exclude amortization of intangibles and stock-based compensation expense. |
| 4 Non-GAAP operating income and operating margin measures exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of assets, and restructuring and impairment charges. |
| 5 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, 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. |
| 6 Previously, the adjustment reported represented the tax effect of other non-GAAP adjustments. We have changed the definition such that the amount now represents the adjustment necessary to remove the effect of discrete tax items as well as the tax effect of the other non-GAAP adjustments shown in the table. All prior periods have been changed to conform to this methodology. |
| 7 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of assets, assets impairment, 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. |
