Business Overview
Ducommun was founded in 1849 in California. The modern-day company
evolved out of a hardware supply store started by Charles Ducommun during the
California Gold Rush. Today, Ducommun Inc. designs, engineers and
manufactures aerostructure and electromechanical components and
subassemblies, and provides engineering, technical and program management
services primarily for the aerospace industry.
Over the years Ducommun has made numerous acquisitions. The most recent
acquisition was of LaBarge in June 2011. Prior to that Ducommun acquired
DynaBil Industries in 2008, CMP in September 2006, WiseWave in May 2006,
Miltec in January 2006, and other companies in the past. Ducommun Inc. is
divided into 2 business segments for accounting purposes but is made up of 3
business units. Ducommun Aerostructures Inc. (DAS) engineers and
manufactures aerospace structural components and subassemblies. The second
business segment of Ducommun Inc. is Ducommun LaBarge Technologies
(DLT). This company was formed in June 2011 after the combination of
Ducommun Technologies and LaBarge. The third business unit is Ducommun
Miltec.
Ducommun Aerostructures (DAS) is a manufacturing services company that
specializes in a variety of composite and metal bond structures and assemblies,
including aircraft wing spoilers, large fuselage skins, helicopter blades, flight

Historically the DAS segment of Ducommun, which focuses on physical
structures that are incorporated in airplanes and helicopters, has accounted for
roughly 60% of revenues. Now, however, with the formation of Ducommun
LaBarge technologies, percentage of revenue has changed to 60% for the
technology side of the business which includes electronics manufacturing and
engineering, technical, and program management services for the aerospace
industry. Management reports after the first three months of business with
LaBarge incorporated in the corporation the financial results are solid making up
60% of total sales.
This acquisition is part of Ducommun’s strategic expansion plans in more
revenue friendly markets. Historically the DCO side of the business has focused
on both military and commercial aircraft, but with military budgets having been
reduced and now delayed in Congress the DCO business is planning on an
upswing in the commercial market demand through their business with
customers such as Boeing and Airbus. The merger with LaBarge looks to nearly
double total revenues in the coming years. Ducommun has also expanded its
engineering and technology services into other markets including oil and gas
exploration, medical markets, and is currently pursuing seven new start up
programs in the commercial, regional, and military markets.
With the acquisition of LaBarge, Ducommun has made its largest acquisition
ever, spending over 325 million for it. Ducommun will now focus on integrating
the business segments and managing its cash. Acquisitions have formed an
integral part of Ducommun’s business strategy for many years and management
states that acquisitions will continue to form a fundamental part of their strategy.
These acquisitions have at times increased revenue, such as LaBarge is doing
currently, and at other times such acquisitions have not been profitable and
Ducommun has divested itself of those acquired businesses.
Business Growth Strategies
Ducommun’s growth strategy is based on acquisitions. Since 1994 Ducommun
has made 14 acquisitions. With its latest acquisition—LaBarge, Ducommun
forecasts improved margins due to synergies resulting from this merger. Sales in
Q3 of 2011 rose 10% over Q3 2010, however margins did not track revenue due
to initial start up costs. Ducommun also enjoys a record backlog of orders, 612
million to be exact, more than the 582 million of backlog orders one year ago.
Management feels that due to the acquisition, Ducommun is on track to manage
solid EBITDA numbers in Q4 2011. As Ducommun looks to the future they see
an upswing in the commercial market demand. This demand comes from
forecasted growth at Boeing and Airbus and management feels that there should
be growth over the next few years in this business segment. The growth in
military spending has been slowing as orders for the F15 and F18 airplanes have
slowed.

There are both positive and negative results from the LaBarge acquisition. Sales
have increased 86% to $185 million, this is over 83$ million in sales than Q3
2010. Margins have increased from 10.2% in Q3 2010 to 11.8% in Q3 2011.
Management reports higher EBITDA levels due to the acquisition. However,
significant start up and integration costs have affected Ducommun in its merger
with LaBarge. Ducommun borrowed $390 million to acquire LaBarge and this
has increased interest expense by $7.8 million. The current plan is to pay back
$30 million each year. Moreover, management states that start up costs have
reduced margins and put pressure on revenue. They feel that this will continue
into Q4 2011 and Q1 2012. Management feels that $4.2 million is a nonrecurring merger related expense. The acquisition has also decimated
Ducommun’s cash and short-term investments.
Despite these setbacks in cash and profit margins Ducommun management
paints a positive picture of future revenues. Management states that their
portfolio has diversified and their commercial aircraft business has been up.
They expect higher builds of 737s and 787s from Boeing. The impact of these
has not come through yet, they say. Ducommun also states that their military
technology products are strong and there is good booking in commercial
products and they feel the oil exploration should grow. Nevertheless, the
services provided to the medical and industrial markets are admittedly soft. The
natural resource business is strong, according to management. There are more
bookings for Schlumberge and management states that Ducommun’s offerings
are more diverse and the oil rig count in North America is rising; as a result next
year looks good in regard to this business segment.
Ducommun is experiencing a low rate of production in some of its businesses
but feels that it will pick up in the last half of 2012. Ducommun’s revenue base
is currently 50% commercial, 30% regional jet, 10% general aviation and 10%
military.
Another concern is that Ducommun is undertaking more start up programs than
in the past. While one or two is common per year, currently there are five. This
is creating inefficiencies and higher costs. Also, after stripping away costs from
the merger it appears that the technology business is down 17%. The DCO side
of the business has suffered a $4 million decline in services. Military delays with
the F-15 orders have hurt as well and it is difficult to forecast revenue from
government-generated orders due to unknowns. The fourth quarter is usually a
good cash flow quarter and Ducommun is looking forward to an uptick in
Boeing orders as Ducommun has a robust build rate for 737s.
Ducommun reports $4-5 million in synergy gains in 2010. Some of the synergy
gains are readily identifiable but other synergies have not yet materialized
because of operations and supply sites being in different locations. Ducommun
feels that it will take another 12 to 15 months to realize these synergies.
Ducommun is confident that they will realize those synergies and the resulting
savings in 2013 and 2014.
Ducommun lost $8 million of sales from American Superconductor but
management says the portfolio has done well to recover from that due to strong
bookings in oil exploration, increases from $350 million to $320 million in
military and space bookings which will provide work in Q4 2011 and Q1 2012.
Management also feels the American Superconductor business will come back.
In regards to the merger, management feels there have been no major surprises
and they are happy with the merger. They believe that there will be positive
results with DLT. As cultures are combined, management feels that another $10
million can be squeezed out from operations and that cash flows from operations
UOIG 4

can continue. Cap ex spending will be limited to $15-20 million, however
acquisitions continue to be an integral part of the strategy and they will not
restrict capital expenditures at the expense of growing the business.
Industry
The aerospace industry exists to provide aircraft for military uses, commercial
purposes, and space exploration. The industry is made up of a few large
manufacturers like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, United Technologies, and
Raytheon. These aircraft manufacturers outsource about 90% of all parts and
components to smaller suppliers like Ducommun. Therefore, their business and
profitability is dependent on the overall aerospace industry.
Aircraft orders have increased since 2006 and are projected to increase through
2016 as the major airlines replace older aircraft with new technology that
provides various benefits to them. These new aircraft are more fuel efficient and
technologically superior. Failure to acquire these new airplanes can be
detrimental to operations. As a result, manufacturers will continue to receive
strong numbers of orders. The growth of the airline industry in China and India
are also drivers of present and future business for aircraft manufacturers. Boeing
estimates that Chinese airlines could be running more than 3,200 large passenger
airplanes by 2025 up from roughly 600 in 2006. Indian airlines are also expected
to purchase 280 new airplanes worth an estimate $15 billion over the next
decade.
Revenue is also picking up speed in the aerospace industry. It is expected to
reach 162.4 billion between 2011 and 2016, which is an annualized increase in
revenue of 2.5%. Profitability is also expected to increase over the next five
years to 2016 partly as a result of new airplane models such as the 787
Dreamliner from Boeing. The regional aircraft market is also growing with new
designs and new models and expects continued profitability. Profitability in the
military sector, however, will decrease slightly as program collaboration
between allied nations splits the risk of new developments. This will mean lower
margins for companies who manufacture such products.
Despite the fact that the overall aerospace industry is expecting growth the
aircraft, engine, and parts manufacturing industry is declining. The indicators of
the declining phase of the economic lifecycle include contracting value added,
falling participation, and increasing levels of import competition. As well,
technological developments have also slowed, leading to diminishing returns on
investment and weak growth in capital expenditure over the last 5 years. Despite
the new products entering the market, per capita consumption of aircraft and
parts is expected to remain steady. The new airplanes that are being produced
are mostly variations of existing airplanes that were introduced to reduce
operating costs. Product development has been slow and limited which is also
characteristic of a declining industry.
In the aircraft, engine, and parts manufacturing industry the largest four
participants hold over 40% of the market as of 2011; Ducummon, being a small
manufacturer makes up a very small percentage of the other companies listed as
industry participants.
The profit margin in the industry is relatively moderate. Earnings before interest
and taxes account for 4.6% of revenue industry-wide. Aircraft, engine, and parts
manufacturing firms profit from the commercial segment based on the volume
UOIG 5
University of Oregon Investment Group
11/22/11
transacted whereas defense contracts are typically awarded with low margins.
Net profit has remained relatively consistent over the last 5 years due to little
fluctuation in aircraft orders.
The competition in this industry is considered medium and varies from
manufacturers of the same products and manufacturers of different products and
foreign manufacturers. The industry is an oligopoly in which only a few large
firms exist and buyers are susceptible to the manufacturers’ price discretion. In
the business and regional market competition is fierce because prices are
cheaper and there are more players in the marketplace.
Barriers to this industry are high due to high startup costs from land acquisitions
and investments in technology, which makes it difficult for new entrants to the
industry. The industry also requires skilled labor and staff who are familiar with
the new technology. Government regulations also act as a barrier to entry.

Comparable Analysis
The comparable companies that have been used for this report are LMI
Aerospace, Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. and GenCorp Inc.
LMI Aerospace
LMI Aerospace provides structural components assemblies and kits to the
aerospace defense and technology industries. LMI manufactures, machines,
finishes, and integrates aluminum and alloy components and sheet metal
products for primarily large commercial corporate and military aircraft. LMI
manufactures more than 30,000 products that are integrated into the large
aircraft manufacturers’ production processes. LMI provides similar products to
Ducommun. Such products are destined for aircraft and helicopter
manufacturing. LMI also provides services to the production, assembly, and
distribution of aerospace components such as engineering services, fabrication,
assembly, distribution and others. This business model is very similar to the
Ducommon business model.
LMI and Ducommun are similarly sized firms. LMI has similar risk as
Ducommun as its market cap is close to that of Ducommun (214 million versus
138 million). LMI is a small player, like Ducommon, in the aerospace supply
industry. Despite a larger market cap, LMI’s total revenue is about half that of
Ducommun’s at 273 million. Ducommun’s total revenue is 494.5 million. LMI’s
beta is less than Ducommun’s beta. LMI had a significant backlog of orders, as
of December 2010. This is common in the aircraft parts manufacturing industry
of 221.5 million, similar to that of Ducommun with 325 million in backlog
orders. LMI’s debt to equity ration is virtually zero as it holds no long-term debt
whereas Ducommun’s debt to equity ration is 2.98. The companies are most
similar in the fact that they operate in the same space, have very similar
products, and their size and total revenue are within reason.
The next comparable company is GenCorp, Inc. GenCorp produces very similar
products for the aerospace and defense industry. GenCorp also has a real estate
component however it composes a very small overall percentage of the business
UOIG 8
University of Oregon Investment Group
11/22/11
(specifically between .8%-3% of total revenue over the past 7 years). GenCorp
also is a similarly sized company, giving it similar risk to Ducommun and LMI
Industries. Its market cap is 283.52 million. Its beta is higher than LMI, closer to
the Ducommun beta of 1.83. Total revenue for the most recent quarter end at
August 31, 2011 is 892.2 million. This is roughly 50% more than Ducommun’s
total revenue. Its operating cash flow is 70.6 million to Ducommun’s 290
million.
The third comparable company is Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. Spirit is
also a supplier of commercial airplane assemblies and components, designing
products for aerospace design, build, support, and also repair needs. Spirit
produces fuselages, under-wing components, composites, wings, spares/repairs.
Spirit Aerosystems is a significantly larger firm in the aerospace industry and
has therefore been weighted accordingly at 20% as opposed to 40% for LMI and
GenCorp. Its total market cap is $2.73 billion, much larger than that of
Ducommun. It has a beta of 1.3; total debt to equity is .053 and its operating
cash flow is $188.3 million.
Discounted Cash Flow Analysis
The calculations for the discounted cash flow analysis presented a significant
challenge due to the recent acquisition of LaBarge. The first quarterly revenue
numbers were reported in the 10Q on November 7, 2011. This quarterly report
represents the first quarter of numbers with Ducommun and Labarge acting as
one company. As a result of this merger, Ducommun’s sales on the technology
side of the business, now known as DLT (Ducommun Labarge Technologies)
have nearly doubled. This has presented a challenge in making projections for
the future. Virtually, a separate DCF analysis had to be prepared for each
company to gain an understanding of what each company brings to the financial
picture, where that will take the projections, and how this will all coalesce under
Ducommun’s management and business strategy.

Beginning with revenue, Ducommun’s total revenue at the end of 2010 was
$408.4 million and Labarge’s total revenue in 2010 was $289.3 million. The
projections for gross revenue were then calculated by each Ducommun business
segment after the LaBarge acquisition. For the DLT segment, the past 6 years of
revenue figures were utilized and to them the past 6 years (which is the
maximum useable period in which LaBarge had positive revenue) and added the
figures together. Then, to account for ineffiencies and attrition of some
customers, each figure was multiplied by 80%. Thereafter, a scatter plot was
graphed with this data set. A straight-line regression yielded a slope line used to
project future growth. This growth was then compared to the Ducommun
Aerostructures side of the business. Again, revenues over the last 20 years of
DCO Aerostructures were graphed in a scatter plot and the resulting regression
line was then used to project DCO Aerostructure revenues through 2020. These
figures were then added together, combining DLT and DCO numbers to project
revenue figures throught 2020 for the combined companies. After that, these
numbers were modified to reflect a stabilized and slightly declining growth rate
after 2016 when it is likely that revenue in the industry will contract.
UOIG 9
University of Oregon Investment Group
Projections for categories other categories of assets and liabilities were
calculated in a similar fashion. The percentage of each category to revenue of its
respective company was calculated and then all of those percentages of segment
revenue were added together and divided by the total number of years for both
LaBarge and Ducommun. After summing these figures for both LaBarge and
Ducommun, the percentages were weight averaged based on the percentage of
revenue that both Ducommun and LaBarge contribute to the overall company.
LaBarge represens 37.6% of and 72.4% of the combination of the new
Ducommun with the LaBarge acquisition.

Beta was calculated using both the regression method and the Hamada method.
The regression method was calculated as a 5-year weekly and monthly beta,
based on the S&P 500 closing prices; a 3-year weekly and monthly beta was
also calculate; moreover, a 1-year weekly beta was calculated versus S&P
closing prices. The fact that Ducommun, as of July 1, 2011, is a 66% larger
company the beta is challenging to compute based on historical prices. As a
result, the Hamada beta was also calculated in order to factor in the massive debt
that Ducommun has assumed. Due to Ducommun’s heavily leveraged position,
its debt to equity is 2.98. This causes the Hamada beta to shoot up to 3.164.
Inherent in this calculation is the risk factor that exists with Ducommun if it
were to fail to fulfill its massive $390 million loan obligation. The Hamada beta
was then tempered slightly, from 3.164 down to 2.5, given that the regressed
beta lies in the 1.27 to 1.56 range.

The revenue model was calculated based on a historic average of growth for
both LaBarge and Ducommun. Despite the fact that neither LaBarge nor
Ducommun have had consistent year over year growth in the past but rather
varied rates of growth, an average of 20 years of Ducommun growth figures and
6 years of LaBarge growth figures and weighted according to the percent of
revenue that each company accounts for is what has led to the revenue
projections for Ducommun in the next few years, tapering off after 2016 and
receding to a conservative estimate as the terminal year approaches. These
projections are difficult to make given Ducommun’s history of acquisitons and
vocalized future intent to continue to employ acquisitions as a growth strategy.
In fact, management’s goal, as posted on its web page is to reach $1 billion in
revenue.
Management states in the most recent conference call that they plan to limit cap
ex to $15-20 million per year but they will not restrict cap ex at the expense of
growing the business. Given Ducommun’s history of acquisitions every one to
two to three years it is likely that they will continue to make acquisitions that
will cause their cash flows to vary greatly. Management estimates that they will
be in the 29-31% tax bracket.

Recommendation
As a result of the foregoing it is my recommendation that our holdings of
Ducommun Inc. should be sold for the main reason that Ducommun is in an
extremely risky position having taken on such a large quantity of debt. If it fails
to meet these debt payments it could quickly be in bankruptcy and equity
holders would stand to receive very little, if anything.

Secondly, despite the fact that the outlook is positive for the overall aircraft
manufacturing industry, the aircraft, engine, and parts manufacturing is in
decline. Its profits are not predicted to increase significantly. Therefore, even if
Ducommun is able to meet its debt obligations it is not likely that its market
value will increase significantly.
Moreover, Ducommun has shown a history of making money, building up its
cash reserves and then spending the majority of that cash on acquisitions. These
acquisitions are not always profitable. As a result, the realistic growth for
Ducommun, because of its acquisition strategy does not make it worth the risk.
Again, it is my recommendation that Ducommun be sold.
