Investopedia explains 'Trailing Twelve Months - TTM'
Trailing 12 months figures can be calculated by subtracting the previous year's results from the same quarter as the most recent quarter reported and adding the difference to the latest fiscal year end results.
TTM figures are also often used to calculate financial ratios. For example, the price/earnings ratio is often quoted as P/E (ttm), meaning they're using the EPS from the past 12 months.
