If the notification relates to a portion of the filing checked above, identify the item(s) to which the notification relates: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PART I REGISTRANT INFORMATION Full Name of Registrant: LMI Aerospace, Inc. Profit Sharing and Savings Plan and Trust Former Name if Applicable: N/A Address of Principal Executive Office (Street Number): 3600 Mueller Road City, State and Zip Code: St. Charles, Missouri 63301 Part II Rule 12b-25(b) and (c) If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate.) (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense |X| (b) The subject annual report on Form 10-K will be filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date |X| (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached |_| Part III Narrative The Annual Report on Form 11-K for year ended December 31, 2002 (the "Report") for the LMI Aerospace, Inc. Profit Sharing and Savings Plan and Trust (the "Plan") as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission reflects a filing date of July 1, 2003. The Report was due on or before June 30, 2003. The Plan initially attempted to file the Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the filing deadline of June 30, 2003, but the SEC rejected the filing due to the Plan's submission of the Report utilizing EDGAR filing codes for the Plan rather than LMI Aerospace, Inc. (the "Company"). The Plan immediately resubmitted the Report utilizing the Company's filing codes; however, by the time the Plan was able to resubmit the Report, the filing deadline had passed. Because the Plan's inability to file related to a technical inability to file the Report on the EDGAR system, the Plan could not have eliminated the reasons causing its inability to timely file the Report without unreasonable effort and expense.
