TTM Technologies (TTMI) Shares Fall -24% Over 30 Days Despite Record Q2 Results

TTM Technologies (TTMI) Shares Fall -24% Over 30 Days Despite Record Q2 Results

Key Takeaways

  • TTM Technologies shares closed at $110.54 on August 21, 2026, down roughly 24% over the prior 30 days from $144.70 on July 22, 2026.
  • The decline occurred despite record second-quarter results, including revenue of $1.0 billion (up 37% year over year) and non-GAAP earnings of $0.99 per share, with raised full-year guidance.
  • The selloff was driven primarily by valuation compression after a steep AI-led rally, alongside insider selling and concerns tied to a $1.1 billion acquisition.
  • Over the past quarter, the stock has fallen about 42% from roughly $190, though it remains sharply higher on a year-to-date and one-year basis.
  • Sell-side analysts have largely maintained bullish ratings, but the market has de-rated the stock's elevated multiple.

Understanding TTM Technologies (TTMI) and Its Market Position

TTM Technologies, Inc. (TTMI) is a leading manufacturer of printed circuit boards (PCBs), radio frequency (RF) components, and advanced electronic systems. The company serves four primary end markets: data center and networking, aerospace and defense, medical/industrial/instrumentation, and automotive. Management has estimated that roughly 80% of net sales are tied to two major secular themes—artificial intelligence infrastructure and defense modernization.

TTM operates a vertically integrated, design-to-manufacturing model serving approximately 1,300 customers, with production across the United States, Asia, and, through recent acquisitions, Europe. Its competitive strengths include advanced interconnect technology, a growing footprint in ultra-high-density interconnect (Ultra-HDI) boards, and strong positioning in both AI data centers and defense programs. Investors follow the stock as a direct beneficiary of AI capital spending and rising global defense budgets.

Recent Stock Price Performance: Last 30 Days vs. Quarter

Over the last 30 days, TTMI shares declined from $144.70 on July 22, 2026, to $110.54 on August 21, 2026, a drop of approximately 23.6%. The move was not linear: the stock saw intermittent bounces in early-to-mid August before resuming its decline late in the month.

The quarterly picture is steeper. From a closing price of $189.92 on May 22, 2026, shares have fallen roughly 42% to the most recent close. The stock reached an intraday 52-week high of $223.83 in late June before a prolonged de-rating, leaving the share price about 51% below that peak. Despite the sharp pullback, TTMI remains up roughly 60% year to date and more than 170% over the trailing 12 months, reflecting the scale of its earlier AI-driven advance.

What Drove the 30-Day Selloff in TTMI

The most important factor behind the decline was a valuation reset rather than deteriorating fundamentals. After surging more than 60% in April 2026 alone, TTMI traded at multiples that many investors considered stretched, with a trailing price-to-earnings ratio well above its historical range. Independent fair-value models flagged the stock as significantly overvalued even as optimism around AI infrastructure remained elevated. I also checked this using Tickeron’s AI Screener to see how the stock compares to others in the industry.

Notably, the company's strong second-quarter report did not halt the slide. On August 5, 2026, TTM reported record quarterly revenue of $1.0 billion, up 37% year over year, and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.99, up 71% from the prior year. Management raised full-year guidance to approximately $4.4 billion in net sales and non-GAAP EPS approaching $5.00. Yet the shares continued to fall, a pattern consistent with a market repricing stocks where elevated valuations required exceptional execution to sustain.

Additional pressures included meaningful insider selling—reported at roughly $17 million to $20 million over the prior 90 days—and broader sector rotation out of high-multiple electronics and AI-infrastructure names. In mid-August, TTM also announced an agreement to acquire Epiq Solutions for approximately $1.1 billion in cash, a deal expected to expand its defense and space portfolio but one that raised financing and integration concerns, with net leverage projected to rise to about 2.3 times at closing.

Drivers Behind the Quarterly Performance Decline

The quarterly decline reflects a longer arc: a powerful rally through late June, followed by a sharp de-rating. Over the past three months, fundamentals remained strong. TTM reported record backlog of $901 million at the end of the second quarter, an overall book-to-bill ratio of 1.49, and a $1.7 billion aerospace and defense program backlog with a qualified pipeline exceeding $7 billion. Data center and networking revenue grew 91% year over year, driven by AI buildouts and the ramp of its N+M asymmetrical printed circuit boards.

However, the share price had run far ahead of even these strong results. The combination of a rich valuation, insider selling, supply-chain pressure in lower-complexity materials affecting the automotive segment, and periodic volatility across AI-related equities weighed on the stock throughout the quarter. The result was a roughly 42% decline over three months, even as the underlying business continued to post record results and raise its outlook.

What Investors Should Watch Next for TTMI

Several factors are likely to shape TTMI shares going forward. The company's next earnings report is expected around early November 2026, and investors will watch whether data center and networking demand continues to accelerate and whether guidance for full-year 2026 is maintained or raised. The production ramp and yields of N+M asymmetrical circuit boards will be closely monitored, given their influence on revenue and adjusted EBITDA margins.

The closing and integration of the Epiq Solutions acquisition, as well as the pending European acquisitions of STG and ILFA, represent key execution milestones. Defense program bookings—including items tied to radar, sensor, and priority restricted programs—and the sustainability of hyperscaler capital spending will also matter. Finally, investors should monitor leverage reduction plans, margin expansion, and whether the stock's valuation stabilizes relative to its earnings trajectory.

The Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL) advanced roughly 18% over the trailing 30 days, closely tracking a sharp rally in Solana (SOL). The move extends a broader recovery, with BSOL up approximately 77% over the past three months from its mid-2026 trough.
MSTY is an actively managed single-stock option income ETF (exchange-traded fund) that writes call options on Strategy (MSTR), formerly MicroStrategy, to generate current income. The portfolio is anchored by U.S. Treasury bills and MSTR option contracts rather than a diversified basket of equities, concentrating exposure in one volatile underlying.
AMDL has surged roughly +64% over the past 30 days, from about $47.59 to $78.10, mirroring a powerful rally in its sole underlying stock, AMD . The fund is a leveraged single-stock ETF (exchange-traded fund) designed to deliver 2x the daily return of AMD, amplifying both gains and losses.
TSMX, a 2x daily leveraged single-stock ETF (exchange-traded fund), rose roughly +19% over the trailing 30 days, rebounding sharply from mid-September lows. The fund seeks 200% of the daily return of TSM (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing), meaning its moves are roughly double the underlying stock's daily swings.
Contracted revenue anchor: A roughly $3.2 billion, seven-year LNG (liquefied natural gas) supply agreement with Puerto Rico has received final approval, providing multi-year cash-flow visibility if execution stays on track. Project pipeline inflection: Upcoming milestones include the Barcarena and PortoCem power plants in Brazil, a potential Gás Sul terminal restart, and optimization of the company's modular "Fast LNG" (FLNG) liquefaction fleet.
AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) designs central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), and AI accelerators, while LRCX (Lam Research) supplies the wafer-fabrication equipment used to build advanced chips. AMD has delivered strong double-digit revenue growth on AI data-center demand, but its shares trade with elevated expectations that can trigger sharp reactions around earnings.
Origination momentum: Velocity Financial enters 2026 off record annual originations of roughly $2.7 billion (up about 48%), positioning it to keep gaining share in a fragmented investor-loan market. Credit normalization is the central watch item: Nonperforming loans fell toward the 8.5% range of portfolio unpaid principal balance (UPB), but asset quality remains the primary swing factor for earnings.
Turnaround milestone ahead: Management has pointed to reaching cash generation in 2027, making the pace of cost discipline and margin recovery the central question for the stock forecast. Fresh capital supports execution: A recently announced $45.5 million equity financing, with participation from management and a single institutional investor, strengthens the balance sheet as the company funds its transformation.
NFE closed at $5.51, down -6.13% during Tuesday's regular session, extending a slide that has pushed shares near a 52-week low. Primary catalyst: the company disclosed its Fast LNG unit is offline after a gas-turbine mechanical failure, with return to service not expected until Q4.
The central $11 target is the arithmetic mean of four verified analyst price targets, rounded from roughly $10.75. With the stock near $2.06, reaching $11 would require an upside of more than 400%, an extremely large move.
The $23 central target is the rounded arithmetic mean of four verified analyst price targets, which average $23.25. The latest verified price is around $9.57, meaning the target implies roughly 140% upside—a very large move.
NXH closed down -11.17% (-$0.23) to $1.83 on Oct 6, the most recent regular session, extending a steep two-day decline. Selling continued as investors digested the mutual termination of the Fathom Holdings merger and a dilutive $45.5M registered direct offering of ~16.5M shares at $2.76.
AMD is a large-cap designer of CPUs (central processing units) and GPUs (graphics processing units) competing directly with Nvidia in the AI accelerator market, while FORM is a small-cap provider of semiconductor test and measurement equipment, primarily probe cards. AMD's narrative has been driven by multi-billion-dollar hyperscaler deals, while FORM's has been powered by record revenue and sharp margin expansion tied to high-bandwidth memory (HBM) demand.
AMD has surged roughly 200% year to date, crossing a $1 trillion market capitalization on AI data-center demand and a "CPU renaissance" narrative. KLAC has gained about 71% year to date, supported by record process-control revenue and rapid growth in advanced packaging for AI chips.
AMD is a large-cap semiconductor designer riding explosive AI compute demand, while ENTG is a mid-cap supplier of materials and purity solutions that feed the same AI-driven chip cycle. AMD recently crossed a $1 trillion market capitalization on surging data center revenue, whereas ENTG operates at a far smaller scale (roughly $23 billion) with steadier, double-digit growth.
VELO closed Tuesday at $9.57, unchanged (+0.00%) from the prior session, with the move occurring during regular market hours. The flat close marked stabilization after Monday's -14.5% plunge, when shares fell to $9.57 from $11.20 following disclosure of CFO James Suva's departure.
The $8 target used here is a technical, publicly discussed recovery objective — not an analyst consensus — because legacy analyst price targets were set before NFE's restructuring and reverse stock split. New Fortress Energy Inc. ( NFE ) trades near $5.51, so reaching $8 implies a roughly 45% advance.
AVBP plunged -46.98% during Tuesday's regular session, closing at $15.09 versus $28.46, marking its worst single-day decline on record. The catalyst was the Phase 3 FURVENT trial of firmonertinib failing its primary endpoint—progression-free survival—in first-line EGFR exon 20 insertion non-small cell lung cancer.
Upcoming catalyst: The company's next earnings release is estimated for November 6, 2026, which should offer fresh detail on its SKY token holdings, staking rewards, and treasury strategy. Strategic positioning: SDEV is an on-chain holding company providing public-market exposure to the Sky protocol ecosystem, with SKY as its core digital asset and a stated focus on the stablecoin economy.
Different roles in the chip ecosystem: AMAT is a materials-engineering and deposition leader, while KLAC dominates process control, inspection, and yield management. Momentum favors AMAT: AMAT shares have more than doubled this year, while KLAC has recently pulled back roughly 9% in a month on margin and execution concerns.
