FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ducommun Reports Results for the

Fourth Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2012

Ends Year with Strong Cash Flows, Solid Earnings Growth and Record Backlog

LOS ANGELES, California (March 4, 2013)—Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE:DCO) today reported results for its fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2012.

Highlights

 

   

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $3.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, after recording a one-time charge for an income tax valuation allowance of $0.21 per diluted share

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA was $22.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to $17.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2011

 

   

Cash flow from operations was $36.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $47.5 million for all of 2012

 

   

Ducommun made voluntary principal pre-payments of $25 million on its term loan in 2012

 

   

The Company’s firm backlog at the end of 2012 was a record $657 million

“In 2012 our goal was to continue the transformation of Ducommun and provide shareholders with stronger operating performance, and we believe we accomplished this by ending the year with solid margins, a record backlog, and greatly improved financial results,” said Anthony J. Reardon, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “In addition, we pre-paid $25 million of our term loan last year and expect to pre-pay a similar amount in 2013, as we execute a strategy of de-levering our balance sheet and reducing interest expense going forward.

“Our ability to provide Ducommun’s customers with a vast array of high technology products, assemblies, and engineering services has resulted in robust demand across our aerospace and defense markets. We are demonstrating the ability to bring both new and existing clients innovative solutions with a more sophisticated product offering. Even with current budget uncertainties in the defense arena and some softness in our industrial and natural resource segments, we are confident that providing our

customers with greater value will make growth achievable in times of change. We believe that Ducommun has developed an organization that has some of the best capabilities to serve an increasing number of leading companies in the aerospace, defense, and industrial landscape.”

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $193.9 million, versus $188.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The higher revenue was the result of increased sales of military helicopter, military fixed wing and large commercial aircraft products, partially offset by lower sales of products in the Company’s non-aerospace and defense end markets.

Net income was $3.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $48.5 million, or ($4.60) per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. Excluding pre-tax merger-related expenses of $3.2 million and a pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $54.3 million, net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $2.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share. Excluding these charges, earnings increased year-over-year due to higher sales and improved margins, partially offset by higher income tax expense.

The 2012 fourth quarter tax rate was impacted by a charge for a valuation allowance for state research and development tax credits of $2.2 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, which contributed to the effective tax rate of 48.1%, compared to an income tax benefit of 9.5% in the comparable period last year. The valuation allowance was the result of new state legislation passed in the fourth quarter of 2012. The new legislation reduces the amount of Company income allocated to California, thus reducing our ability to realize the benefits of the state research and development tax credits previously recorded. In addition, the Company’s effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2012 reflected no current year federal research and development tax benefits; whereas, the effective tax rate for 2011 included federal research and development tax benefits. As a result of federal legislation passed in January 2013, the Company will record approximately $2.0 million of federal research and development tax benefits in the first quarter of 2013.

Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $14.7 million, or 7.6% of revenue, compared to a loss of $45.4 million, or (24.1%) of revenue, in the comparable period last year. Operating margins increased due to higher net sales and improved margins in 2012 and merger-related expenses and goodwill impairment charges in 2011.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2012 increased to $22.7 million, or 11.7% of revenue, compared to $17.8 million, or 9.5% of revenue, for the comparable period last year.

During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company generated $36.1 million of cash from operations as a result of improved working capital management and operating performance, compared to $25.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Net cash generation during the fourth quarter of 2011 was negatively impacted by $2.0 million of merger-related expenses.

Ducommun AeroStructures (DAS)

The Company’s DAS segment reported net sales for the fourth quarter of $82.2 million, up 19% from $68.9 million in the year ago quarter. The higher revenue was the result of increased sales of military helicopter and large commercial aircraft products.

DAS segment operating income was $7.2 million, or 8.8% of revenue, compared to $3.4 million, or 4.9% of revenue, in the same period of 2011. The increase in operating income reflects a greater proportion of sales of higher margin products. EBITDA was $10.3 million in the quarter, or 12.6% of revenue, compared to $5.6 million, or 8.2% of revenue, in the comparable quarter of the prior year.

Ducommun LaBarge Technologies (DLT)

The Company’s DLT segment net sales were $111.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, down 6% from $119.4 million in the year-ago fourth quarter. The lower revenue was primarily the result of a 30% decrease in sales of products in the Company’s non-aerospace and defense markets, partially offset by a 9% increase in sales of military-technology products.

DLT operating income was $11.4 million, or 10.2% of revenue, compared to operating income of $11.3 million, or 9.5% of revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2011, excluding merger-related expenses of $2.5 million and goodwill impairment charges of $54.3 million. EBITDA was $16.2 million in the quarter, or 14.5% of revenue, compared to $16.0 million, or 13.4% of revenue, in the comparable quarter of the prior year, excluding merger-related expenses of $2.5 million and goodwill impairment charges of $54.3 million.

Corporate General and Administrative (“CG&A”)

CG&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $4.0 million, or 2.0% of revenue, up slightly from the prior year quarter of $3.3 million, or 1.7% of revenue. Merger-related expenses included in CG&A were $0.6 million in the fourth quarter 2011.

Backlog

Backlog reached record levels of $657 million at December 31, 2012 and reflects strengthening primarily in military and space and commercial aerospace markets and decreases in our non-aerospace and defense markets.

Full Year Results

Net sales for 2012 increased $166.1 million, or 29%, to $747.0 million, compared to $580.9 million in 2011. The higher revenue was primarily the result of the full-year impact from the June 2011 acquisition of LaBarge Inc. (“LaBarge”). Revenue attributable to LaBarge in 2012 and 2011 was $324.2 million and $175.4 million, respectively.

Net income was $16.4 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, compared to net income of $14.9 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, in 2011, excluding merger-related expenses and goodwill impairment charges. Including such charges, the Company reported a net loss of $47.6 million, or ($4.52) per diluted share, in 2011. The increase in earnings in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to higher net sales and operating margins, partially offset by higher interest expense and higher income taxes.

The effective tax rate was 25.3% in 2012, compared to an income tax benefit of 9.1% in 2011. The Company’s 2012 effective tax rate reflected no current year federal research and development tax credits; whereas, the effective tax rate for 2011 included federal research and development tax credits. The 2012 effective tax rate was impacted by the aforementioned research and development tax items, and, as previously reported, the Company recognized a tax benefit as a result of the LaBarge acquisition, which allowed the Company to file state consolidated tax returns in 2012.

Operating income for 2012 was $54.8 million, or 7.3% of revenue, compared to $38.6 million in 2011, or 6.7% of revenue, excluding merger-related expenses of $18.5 million and goodwill impairment charges of $54.3 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months of 2012 increased to $84.9 million, or 11.4% of revenue, compared to $57.7 million, or 9.9% of revenue, for 2011.

The Company generated cash flow from operations of $47.5 million in 2012, compared to a use of $3.0 million in 2011. Cash flow from operations in 2011 included $25.6 million of merger-related expenses.

Ducommun AeroStructures (DAS)

DAS reported net sales of $310.0 million in 2012, up 6% from $292.8 million in 2011. The higher revenue was the result of increased shipments of large commercial aircraft and military helicopter products, partially offset by lower shipments of regional aircraft and military fixed wing products.

DAS segment operating income for 2012 was $28.8 million, or 9.3% of revenue, compared to $25.8 million, or 8.8% of revenue, in 2011. Operating income increased in 2012 compared to 2011 due to a greater proportion of revenue from higher margin products. EBITDA was $39.1 million in 2012, or 12.6% of revenue, compared to $35.8 million, or 12.2% of revenue, in 2011.

Ducommun LaBarge Technologies (DLT)

DLT segment net sales were $437.1 million in 2012, up 52% from $288.2 million in 2011. The increased revenue was primarily due to incremental sales from the June 2011 LaBarge acquisition.

DLT operating income for 2012 was $40.7 million, or 9.3% of revenue, compared to $27.0 million, or 9.4% of revenue, in 2011, excluding merger-related expenses of $6.1 million and pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $54.3 million. EBITDA was $59.6 million for 2012, or 13.6% of revenue, compared to $38.4 million in 2011, or 13.3% of revenue, excluding merger-related expenses of $6.1 million and pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $54.3 million.

Corporate General and Administrative (“CG&A”)

CG&A expenses for 2012 were $14.7 million, or 2.0% of revenue, compared to $26.5 million, or 4.6% of revenue, in 2011. Excluding merger-related expenses in 2011 of $12.4 million, CG&A was $14.1 million, or 2.4% of revenue.
