GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $36.5 million compared to operating income of $23.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 and operating income of $26.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. 

GAAP net income attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $9.5 million, or $0.09 per diluted share.  This compares to GAAP net loss attributable to stockholders of $2.2 million, or $0.02 per share, in the third quarter of 2015 and GAAP net income of $13.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014.  

On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $31.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share.  This compares to non-GAAP net income of $23.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2015 and $23.2 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $95.8 million, or 14.3 percent of net sales, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $87.6 million, or 13.4 percent of net sales, for the third quarter of 2015 and $60.5 million, or 15.5 percent of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2014.

“Our solid fourth quarter execution combined with seasonal growth in the cellular phone end market and robust demand in the automotive and aerospace and defense end markets drove our sequential increases in gross margin, operating profit and strong free cash flow generation,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM.  “We are pleased to report non-GAAP earnings above the high end of our guidance range and revenue in line with expectations.  In addition, we generated $118 million in free cash flow during the quarter which we will use to repay $70-80 million of principal on our term loan late in the first quarter.”

Full Year 2015 Financial Results

Net sales for fiscal year 2015 increased to $2.1 billion from $1.3 billion in fiscal year 2014. 

GAAP operating income for fiscal year 2015 was $61.3 million, an increase from GAAP operating income of $46.5 million in fiscal year 2014.

GAAP net loss attributable to stockholders for fiscal year 2015 was $25.9 million, or $0.28 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $14.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2014.  The GAAP results were negatively impacted by approximately $59.4 million of expenses related to the acquisition and integration of Viasystems.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders for fiscal year 2015 was $81.1 million, or $0.87 per diluted share.  This compares to fiscal year 2014 non-GAAP net income of $39.3 million, or $0.47 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2015 was $285.7 million, or 13.6 percent of net sales, compared to $166.0 million, or 12.5 percent of net sales, for fiscal year 2014.

“2015 was a transformational year for our company that culminated in the creation of one of today’s leading global PCB manufacturers with increased customer and end market diversity.  We delivered on our integration initiatives and exited the year having achieved 80% of our $55 million annualized synergy target,” continued Edman.

“We expect our leadership in a diverse set of end markets to pay-off in the first quarter of 2016 as anticipated strength in automotive and aerospace and defense markets will help to mitigate a seasonal downturn in the cellular phone market. We will continue to build on these strengths as we leverage TTM’s advanced technology position into the automotive market in particular.”

Business Outlook

For the first quarter of 2016, TTM estimates that revenue will be in the range of $570 million to $610 million, and non-GAAP net income will be in the range of $0.05 to $0.11 per diluted share.
