GAAP operating income for the first quarter was $12.7 million compared to operating income of $20.7 million in the fourth quarter.

GAAP net income attributable to stockholders for the first quarter was $5.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to stockholders of $13.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for the first quarter was $10.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders of $18.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter.

"Our results for the first quarter for both Asia Pacific and North America were in line with our expectations," said Kent Alder, CEO of TTM. "While we experienced normal seasonality during the quarter, we were pleased to realize a year-over-year increase in revenue due to increased sales in our cellular phone and networking end markets. We were also encouraged to see an improvement in the aerospace and defense end market both sequentially and year-over-year, despite current defense budget challenges."

"We remain confident in our strategy to address our served markets and in our growth prospects for our advanced technology PCBs. Looking towards the second half of the year, we are becoming more positive about the business climate and we believe TTM is well positioned for an improving demand environment," concluded Alder.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of 2013, TTM estimates revenue will be in the range of $320 million to $340 million, GAAP earnings attributable to stockholders in a range from $0.01 to $0.07 per diluted share and non-GAAP earnings attributable to stockholders in a range from $0.08 to $0.14 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. Management believes that both measures -- which add back amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense on debt, asset impairments, restructuring and other charges as well as the associated tax impact of these charges -- provide 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, general market and economic conditions, including interest rates, currency exchange rates and consumer spending, demand for the company's products, changing trends in the markets the company serves, market pressures on prices of the company's products, changes in product mix, the company's ability to consummate the DMC and SYE transactions and realize the expected capacity utilization and margin benefits therefrom, 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, competition in the labor markets in which the company operates, 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 EBITDA, non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders and non-GAAP EPS attributable to stockholders to the financial information in our consolidated statements of operations.
3 EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We present 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 EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find 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, 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.
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 and non-cash interest expense on debt (before consideration of capitalized interest) as well as the associated tax impact of these charges --- provide additional useful information to investors regarding the Company's ongoing financial condition and results of operations.
