Revenues of $845.98 million increased 30.4% year over year and surpassed the consensus estimate of $783 million by 8.06%.

TTMI's end-market sales distribution in the reported quarter was dominated by Aerospace & Defense (40%), followed by Data Center and Networking (36%), Medical, Industrial and Instrumentation (16%) and Automotive (8%). Data Center and Networking revenues expanded significantly from 28% of total net sales in the year-ago quarter, driven by continued AI infrastructure demand from hyperscalers.
