Company snapshot

  • TTM Technologies offers a broad portfolio of printed circuit boards (PCBs), RF components, high-density interconnects, flexible and rigid-flex PCBs, IC substrates, and advanced ceramic RF components.
  • The firm generates revenue primarily through the manufacture and sale of PCB and RF components, as well as value-added services such as design, simulation, testing, and system integration.
  • It serves original equipment manufacturers and electronic manufacturing services companies in sectors including aerospace and defense, data center computing, automotive, medical, industrial, and instrumentation.

TTM Technologies, Inc. is a leading global supplier of advanced printed circuit boards and RF components, with a significant presence in high-growth technology end-markets. The company leverages its scale, engineering expertise, and manufacturing capabilities to deliver complex, high-reliability products to a diverse customer base. Strategic focus on innovation and value-added services positions TTM Technologies to address evolving demands in electronics, particularly within mission-critical and high-performance applications.

What this transaction means for investors

Momentum alone does not justify a 250% one-year gain, but sustained demand might. TTM just delivered 19% fourth-quarter revenue growth to $774.3 million, with non-GAAP EPS of $0.70 and adjusted EBITDA margins expanding to 16.3%. Full-year sales, meanwhile, climbed to $2.9 billion, also up 19%, as generative AI demand boosted data center computing exposure and aerospace and defense remained durable.

That backdrop makes a new $37.5 million position more interesting because it doesn’t seem like this is simply a sleepy balance-sheet filler. The company posted a 1.35 book-to-bill ratio in the quarter and carries a $1.6 billion aerospace and defense backlog, giving some visibility into future revenue.

More broadly, Park West already owns large stakes in mega-cap tech like Alphabet and Amazon, so this adds a more specialized hardware name tied to AI infrastructure rather than consumer platforms. For long-term investors, the question is less about chasing a 250% run and more about whether AI-driven demand and defense exposure can sustain mid-teens growth into 2026. Guidance for 15% to 20% revenue growth suggests management, and perhaps Park West, thinks it can.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
