Fourth Quarter 2021 Non-GAAP Financial Results
On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $36.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $40.2 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $70.4 million, or 11.8 percent of net sales, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $68.2 million, or 13.0% percent of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
“In the fourth quarter, TTM achieved revenues above the high end of guidance and non-GAAP earnings at the high end of the guided range. This outperformance was driven by strength in all of our commercial end markets, despite labor and production challenges in North America and tight supply conditions globally for certain raw materials,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM.
Full Year 2021 Financial Results
Net sales for fiscal year 2021 increased to $2.25 billion from $2.11 billion from continuing operations in fiscal year 2020, a 6.8% increase. Excluding the two E-MS facilities that were closed at the end of 2020, our revenues grew 10.9% for the year.
GAAP operating income for fiscal year 2021 was $126.0 million, an increase from GAAP operating income of $28.1 million from continuing operations in fiscal year 2020.
GAAP net income for fiscal year 2021 was $54.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $16.4 million from continuing operations, or ($0.15) per diluted share, for fiscal year 2020.
On a non-GAAP basis, net income for fiscal year 2021 was $138.0 million, or $1.28 per diluted share. This compares to fiscal year 2020 non-GAAP net income of $116.7 million from continuing operations, or $1.10 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2021 was $275.6 million, or 12.3 percent of net sales, compared to $272.3 million from continuing operations, or 12.9 percent of net sales, for fiscal year 2020. Cash flow from operations for fiscal year 2021 was $176.6 million.
"Despite the headwinds from materials and labor inflation and availability, COVID-19 and the strengthening Chinese currency, we delivered solid results in 2021 with revenues growing 10.9% year on year excluding divested businesses," continued Edman. “Also in 2021, we generated $176.6 million in operating cash flow which enabled us to strengthen our balance sheet and return capital to our shareholders. For the year we repurchased 4.7 million shares for $64.6 million on our $100 million stock buyback program.”
Business Outlook
In the first quarter, we are seeing continued labor challenges along with normal seasonality associated with Chinese New Year and one less week in the quarter compared to the fourth quarter.
Taking these factors into consideration, TTM estimates that revenue for the first quarter of 2022 will be in the range of $540 million to $580 million, and non-GAAP net income will be in the range of $0.20 to $0.26 per diluted share.

Defense Speak Interpreted: If CHIPS Cuts Back, What Happens to Electronics Packaging Funds?
09/02/2025 | Dennis Fritz -- Column: Defense Speak InterpretedIn my May column, I examined the topic of the CHIPS Act and its current status as a U.S. government program. I found that CHIPS activities continue, but some corporations have delayed or canceled them because of budget cuts or corporation-specific problems. However, CHIPS integrated circuits—mostly administered by the Department of Commerce—don’t fully drive the electronics interconnection activity being funded by the government. Let’s cover the progress/status of other programs:
