TTM signs definitive agreements for SYE and DMC plants

USA: TTM Technologies Inc., a major global printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer, announced that it has signed definitive agreements with its minority partner, Shengyi Technology Co. Ltd (Sytech) to sell TTM's 70.2 percent equity interest in the SYE plant to Sytech and to acquire Sytech's 20 percent equity interest in the DMC plant.

TTM announced it had signed a letter of intent for the transaction in February 2013. Both the SYE and DMC plants primarily manufacture conventional PCBs and are located in Dongguan, China.

The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2013, subject to certain closing conditions between the parties and regulatory approvals. TTM anticipates the transaction will generate
