NEWS RELEASE

Ducommun Incorporated Reports
Third Quarter 2024 Results
Record Quarterly Revenue Exceeding $200M; Strong Gross Margin Growth
COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA (November 7, 2024) – Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE: DCO) (“Ducommun” or the “Company”) today reported results for its third quarter ended September 28, 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 Recap
Net revenue was $201.4 million, an increase of 2.6% over Q3 2023
Net income of $10.1 million (increase of 216% year-over-year), or $0.67 per diluted share, or 5.0% of revenue, up 340 bps year-over-year
Non-GAAP adjusted net income of $14.8 million (increase of 44% year-over-year), or $0.99 per diluted share
Gross margin of 26.2%, year-over-year growth of 350 bps
Adjusted EBITDA of $31.9 million (increase of 9% year-over-year), or 15.8% of revenue, up 90 bps year-over-year
“VISION 2027 again this quarter is taking hold in many areas and especially in our margin growth, as our mix of Engineered Products and Aftermarket revenue continues to climb as a percentage of revenue. Q3 was another outstanding quarter for DCO as we once again grew our topline both year-over-year and sequentially, led by strength in both of our Military and Commercial Aerospace segments along with strong quarterly gross margins and Adjusted EBITDA margins,” said Stephen G. Oswald, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Net revenue for the quarter exceeded $200 million for the first time in our history to $201.4 million, up 3% compared to Q3 2023, with strong demand for select military radar, missile and electronic warfare programs, Airbus platforms and business jets, despite the temporary slowdown in demand on Boeing platforms.
"The Company delivered a new quarterly record for gross margin, expanding 350 bps year-over-year from 22.7% to 26.2%, a very impressive result. Ducommun also reached a new quarterly record for Adjusted EBITDA margins, exceeding $30 million for the first time, expanding 90 bps year-over-year from 14.9% to 15.8%. The Adjusted EBITDA margins growth in Q3 reaffirms the strong momentum we have in meeting our VISION 2027 financial goal of 18%. There were many bright spots in Q3 including continued growth in our higher margin Engineered Products businesses, benefits of favorable product mix and higher manufacturing volume, savings from our on-going restructuring program, value pricing along with productivity and a relentless culture, all critical to our success. DCO is now clearly in position to close out its 175th year in business with its best one yet.
“In December 2022, we laid out our VISION 2027 Plan to investors and as we are now almost through year two of the Plan and by year end will be ahead of schedule. The DCO team is driving the business and despite the continued headwinds from aircraft OEMs, including the labor strike at Boeing that ended this week, remains on track to deliver our long-term goals as we drive to meet our commitments.”
Third Quarter Results
Net revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was $201.4 million compared to $196.3 million for the third quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase of 2.6% was primarily due to the following in the Company's key end-use markets:
1


$6.6 million higher revenue in the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to higher rates on selected radar, electronic warfare, and other military and space platforms, partially offset by lower rates on rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft platforms; and
$2.8 million higher revenue in the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to growth in Airbus and selected business aircraft platforms, partially offset by lower revenues on the 737 MAX and in-flight entertainment products.
In addition, revenue for the Company’s industrial end-use markets for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $4.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 mainly due to the Company selectively pruning non-core business.
Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $10.1 million, or 5.0% of revenue, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared to $3.2 million, or 1.6% revenue, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023. This reflects higher gross profit of $8.1 million and lower restructuring charges of $2.1 million (including $0.2 million recorded as cost of sales in the prior year period), partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $3.3 million. A portion of the higher SG&A expenses were due to the unsolicited non-binding offer to acquire all common stock outstanding of Ducommun Incorporated.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 was $52.7 million, or 26.2% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $44.6 million, or 22.7% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2023. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net revenue year-over-year was primarily due to favorable product mix and higher manufacturing volume, pricing actions, along with benefits from the restructuring initiative, partially offset by higher other manufacturing costs.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2024 was $15.3 million, or 7.6% of revenue, compared to $8.6 million, or 4.4% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year increase of $6.7 million was primarily due to higher gross profit and lower restructuring charges, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses, which was noted above. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2024 was $21.1 million, or 10.5% of revenue, compared to $17.5 million, or 8.9% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher GAAP operating income, partially offset by lower add backs of restructuring charges and inventory purchase accounting adjustments.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2024 was $31.9 million, or 15.8% of revenue, compared to $29.3 million, or 14.9% of revenue, for the comparable period in 2023.
Interest expense for the third quarter of 2024 was $3.8 million compared to $5.4 million in the comparable period of 2023. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to the benefit from the interest rate swaps which became effective on January 1, 2024, along with a lower debt balance in the third quarter of 2024.
During the third quarter of 2024, the net cash provided by operations was $13.9 million compared to $14.3 million during the third quarter of 2023. The lower net cash provided by operations during the third quarter of 2024 was primarily due to lower contract liabilities and higher contract assets, partially offset by lower inventories and higher net income.

Electronic Systems
Electronic Systems segment net revenue for the quarter ended September 28, 2024 was $115.4 million, compared to $110.7 million for the third quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following in the Company's key end-use markets:
$9.9 million higher revenue within the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to higher rates on select radar, electronic warfare, and other military and space platforms, partially offset by lower rates on fixed-wing aircraft platforms; partially offset by
$0.9 million lower revenue in the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to lower in-flight entertainment revenues and lower rates on other commercial aerospace platforms, partially offset by higher rates on regional and business aircraft selected single-aisle and twin-aisle aircraft platforms.
In addition, revenue for the Company’s industrial end-use markets for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $4.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 mainly due to the Company selectively pruning non-core business.

Structural Systems
Structural Systems segment net revenue for the quarter ended September 28, 2024 was $86.0 million, compared to $85.5 million for the third quarter of 2023. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following:

The year-over-year increase in CG&A expenses was primarily due to higher professional services fees of $1.2 million, of which $1.0 million was related to the unsolicited non-binding offer to acquire all the shares of Ducommun Incorporated.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information
This release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA (which excludes interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, professional fees related to unsolicited non-binding acquisition offer, Guaymas fire related expenses, other fire related expenses, insurance recoveries related to loss on operating assets, insurance recoveries related to business interruption, and inventory purchase accounting adjustments), including as a percentage of revenue, non-GAAP operating income, including as a percentage of net revenues, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, and backlog. In addition, certain other prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year’s presentation.
The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company’s actual and forecasted operating performance, capital resources and cash flow. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company discloses different non-GAAP financial measures in order to provide greater transparency and to help the Company’s investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare Ducommun’s results to its previously reported results. The non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses may not be comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other companies.

The Company defines backlog as potential revenue and is based on customer placed purchase orders and long-term agreements (“LTAs”) with firm fixed price and expected delivery dates of 24 months or less. The majority of the LTAs do not meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606 and thus, the backlog amount disclosed herein is greater than the remaining performance obligations disclosed under ASC 606. Backlog is subject to delivery delays or program cancellations, which are beyond the Company’s control. Backlog is affected by timing differences in the placement of customer orders and tends to be concentrated in several programs to a greater extent than the Company’s net revenues. As a result of these factors, trends in the Company’s overall level of backlog may not be indicative of trends in the Company’s future net revenues.
