First Quarter 2008 Financial Results
Commenting on results for the first quarter, Kent Alder, President and CEO of TTM, noted, "We delivered another quarter of solid financial performance, with the Aerospace/Defense end market showing improved strength, coupled with continued strong demand for our high tech manufacturing services. Our results were above expectations, and we realized sequential improvement in net sales, gross margin and net income. The first quarter results are a real compliment to the management team and demonstrate the success we are having as we work to improve margins." Alder added, "TTM's business and end market demand remain healthy and stable, and the Company has not seen a significant impact from the slowing global economy. We will continue to operate efficiently and effectively, with a customer-focused strategy to grow our business and create value."

First quarter 2008 net sales of $174.1 million improved 3.9 percent over fourth quarter 2007 net sales of $167.5 million.

First quarter 2008 gross margin of 21.6 percent increased 90 basis points over fourth quarter 2007 gross margin of 20.7 percent.

Selling and marketing expense for the first quarter was $7.7 million, representing 4.4 percent of sales. This is relatively consistent with fourth quarter selling and marketing expense of $7.6 million, representing 4.6 percent of sales.

General and administrative expense, including amortization of intangibles, for the first quarter was $9.2 million, representing 5.3 percent of sales. This compares to fourth quarter general and administrative expense, including amortization of intangibles, of $9.5 million, representing 5.7 percent of sales. The decrease in general and administrative expense was primarily due to lower auditing and consulting expense.

The Company noted that a one-time benefit attributable to an agreement reached with a vendor regarding metal reclamation positively affected operating income for the quarter. The $3.7 million benefit recorded as metal reclamation added approximately $0.05 to diluted earnings per share for the first quarter.

TTM posted operating income of $24.4 million for the first quarter, an increase of 39.2 percent over fourth quarter operating income of $17.6 million.

First quarter net income of $14.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, increased 21.5 percent over fourth quarter net income of $11.8 million, or $0.28 per diluted share.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) for the first quarter was $31.0 million, or 17.8 percent of sales, compared with fourth quarter EBITDA of $24.4 million, or 14.5 percent of sales. (A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is provided after the GAAP financial statements accompanying this press release.)

Balance Sheet

TTM's strong operating cash flow contributed to continued pay down of debt associated with the PCG acquisition. During the quarter, the Company reduced debt by $10 million, reducing the total debt balance to $75 million.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2008 Forecast
For the second quarter of 2008, TTM estimates revenues in a range of $170 million to $177 million and earnings in a range of $0.20 to $0.25 per diluted share.
