SANTA ANA, Calif., Sept. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TTM Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTMI) ("TTM"), a leading global manufacturer of technology products, including mission systems, radio frequency ("RF") components, RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies, and technologically advanced interconnect products, including printed circuit boards ("PCBs") and substrates, announced today that it has completed its acquisition of EPIQ Design Solutions LLC ("Epiq"), a premier provider of open-architecture, AI-enabled software-defined radios ("SDRs"), high-performance RF products and radiation-tolerant space compute solutions supporting mission-critical signals intelligence and electronic warfare applications.
Through the close of the transaction, TTM adds a talented management and operational team focused on critical technologies in the long-cycle Aerospace & Defense end market, with strategic and complementary capabilities that TTM expects will bolster TTM's long-term growth strategy. The addition of Epiq adds:
- Highly complementary technology offerings that enable full command of the RF spectrum through small-form-factor, software-driven solutions;
- Accelerated momentum to TTM's "up the chain" vertical integration strategy across land, air, sea, and space domains through multiple defense and commercial expansion opportunities;
- Cutting edge technologies optimized for size, weight, and power (SWaP) rooted in open architectures supporting defense and commercial markets
Financial contributions from the newly acquired Epiq business are expected to be immediately accretive to adjusted EBITDA, moderately dilutive to non-GAAP diluted EPS in 2027, and accretive to non-GAAP diluted EPS in 2028.
"The completion of the Epiq acquisition is an exciting moment for TTM as we welcome a very strong management team and a profitable, well-established business that provides innovative capabilities for our A&D customers and bolsters our overall technology portfolio," said Edwin Roks, President and Chief Executive Officer of TTM Technologies.
