What does TTM (trailing twelve months) mean?
TTM (trailing twelve months) sums a company’s most recent four quarters to give an up-to-date annualized figure between annual reports.
A company's most recent twelve months
TTM stands for trailing twelve months. It's the sum of a company's results over its most recent four quarters — a way to see a full year's worth of performance that's always up to date, instead of waiting for the next annual report.
Why it's useful
Annual (10-K) figures are only published once a year, so they can be stale for months. Quarterly (10-Q) figures are fresh but cover just three months. TTM bridges the two: it rolls the last four quarters together to give a current, annualized number you can compare year over year.
How it's calculated
For a flow metric like revenue or net income:
TTM = Q(most recent) + Q(−1) + Q(−2) + Q(−3)
Balance-sheet items (like cash or total debt) aren't summed — they're point-in-time values, so the "latest" figure is simply the most recent reported balance.
