Santa Ana, CA - July 29, 2008 - TTM Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTMI), North America's largest printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer, today reported results for the second quarter of 2008, ended June 30, 2008.

Financial & Operational Highlights

• Second quarter 2008 net sales of $173.0 million were in line with the Company's guidance, and gross margin of 21.1 percent exceeded the Company's guidance.
• The Company completed a successful convertible debt offering and used a portion of the proceeds to retire the remaining balance of the term loan debt associated with the Printed Circuit Group acquisition.

Second Quarter 2008 Financial Results
Kent Alder, President and CEO of TTM, noted, "Results for the second quarter continued our long history of delivering solid financial performance. Our gross margin and our diluted earnings per share, when adjusted for costs related to repaying our debt, exceeded our expectations." Alder continued, "The Aerospace/Defense end market showed continued strength, and we again saw strong demand for our high tech manufacturing services."

Second quarter net sales of $173.0 million decreased from first quarter 2008 net sales of $174.1 million and were in line with the Company's guidance.

Second quarter 2008 gross margin of 21.1 percent declined slightly from first quarter 2008 gross margin of 21.6 percent but exceeded the high end of the guidance range.

Selling and marketing expense for the second quarter was $7.8 million, representing 4.5 percent of net sales. This is consistent with first quarter selling and marketing expense of $7.7 million, representing 4.4 percent of net sales.

Second quarter general and administrative expense, including amortization of intangibles, was $9.8 million, representing 5.7 percent of net sales. This compares to general and administrative expense, including amortization of intangibles, for the first quarter of $9.2 million, representing 5.3 percent of sales. General and administrative expense increased in the second quarter due to higher incentive compensation and stock-based compensation expense.

Operating expenses totaled $17.5 million in the second quarter. During the first quarter of 2008, TTM reduced operating expenses by $3.7 million due to a metal reclamation recovery. Absent this reduction in expense, first quarter operating expenses would have totaled $16.9 million.

TTM posted second quarter operating income of $19.1 million, which compares to first quarter operating income of $24.4 million, which included the aforementioned $3.7 million metal reclamation recovery.

Other expense in the second quarter was $4.1 million compared to $1.6 million in the first quarter. This increase is largely attributable to the write-off of the remaining financing costs and the unwinding of a hedge related to the Company's term loan, which was repaid in May with the proceeds from the convertible debt offering. TTM recorded $1.9 million in expense to amortize the remaining financing costs and $1.2 million to unwind the hedge.

Second quarter net income of $9.4 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, was in line with guidance and compares with first quarter net income of $14.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. Net income in the first quarter benefited by $3.7 million, or about $0.05 per diluted share, from the metal reclamation recovery. Net income decreased in the second quarter by $3.1 million, or about $0.04 per diluted share, due to the costs discussed above related to the term loan repayment.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) for the second quarter was $24.5 million, or 14.1 percent of sales, compared with first quarter EBITDA of $31.0 million, or 17.8 percent of sales. (A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is provided after the GAAP financial statements accompanying this press release.)
