TTM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. REPORTS PROFITABLE SECOND QUARTER 2003

ON SEQUENTIAL REVENUE GAINS AND MARGIN IMPROVEMENT

 

SANTA ANA, CA – July 29, 2003 – TTM Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTMI), a leading manufacturer of time-critical and technologically advanced printed circuit boards, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003.

 

Second-Quarter Results

 

Second quarter 2003 revenue increased 76 percent to $41.0 million, compared to $23.3 million for the second quarter of 2002, due to the acquisition of Advanced Circuits, Inc. (ACI) in the fourth quarter of 2002. Sequentially, from the first quarter to the second quarter of 2003, revenues increased 3.6 percent.

 

For the second quarter of 2003, quick-turn business decreased to 29 percent of total revenues, compared to 44 percent for the second quarter of 2002, because of the addition of ACI with its focus on high technology, standard lead time PCBs. Sequentially, quick-turn business increased slightly from 28 percent of total revenues in the first quarter of 2003. The remaining 71 percent of sales in the second quarter of 2003 represents standard lead time business.

 

Gross margins increased to 15.7 percent in the second quarter of 2003, compared to 9.4 percent for the same period in 2002 and 11.4 percent in the first quarter of 2003. This improvement reflects a sales mix shift towards more technologically sophisticated products, better fixed cost absorption and lower raw material costs.

 

Year-over-year, general and administrative expenses increased from $1.3 million to $2.8 million due to the inclusion of ACI. Sequentially, general and administrative expenses declined 1.7 percent due to a reduction in expenses associated with the integration of ACI, which is essentially complete.

 

TTM posted an operating profit of $735,000 for the second quarter of 2003, compared to an operating loss of $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2002 and an operating loss of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2003.

 

Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $432,000, or $0.01 per diluted share. This result compared favorably with a net loss of $1.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2002 and a net loss of $150,000, or breakeven on a per-share basis, for the first quarter of 2003. Results in the first quarter of 2003 included an extraordinary gain of $824,000, or $0.02 per share.

 

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the second quarter of 2003 was $3.0 million, up from $776,000 for the second quarter of 2002 and $897,000 in the first quarter of 2003.

 



 

“The ACI acquisition has exceeded our expectations,” said Kent Alder, President and CEO of TTM Technologies. “The integration of our acquisition of ACI is largely complete and has gone extremely well.”

 

“Our sequential revenue growth reflects TTM’s ability to capture market share and to capitalize on cross-selling opportunities created by the ACI acquisition,” continued Alder. “Moreover, in the second quarter, we were able to translate our top-line success into profitable bottom-line performance due to our ongoing cost control, cost benefits associated with our greater buying power, and more efficient operations.”

 

Financial Strength

 

“Due to our strong, positive cash flow from operations, our balance sheet strengthened even further,” said Alder. At the end of the second quarter, TTM had cash of $32.0 million and debt of $10.0 million, a net increase of $13.1 million from cash of $18.9 million and debt of $10.0 million at year-end 2002. In addition, TTM’s revolving credit facility remained undrawn at the end of the quarter.

 
Outlook

 

“Market conditions appear to have stabilized in the electronics industry,” concluded Alder. “In the near term, we anticipate continued revenue gains for TTM and expect to remain profitable in the third quarter. Looking forward, we expect increasing new business and market share gains during the fourth quarter due to recent plant closures and some improvement in overall business conditions.”

 

For the third quarter of 2003, TTM is estimating revenues of $42 million to $44 million and earnings per share of $0.01 to $0.03 per share.
