Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
We are a leading global provider of innovative, value-added proprietary products and manufacturing solutions for high-performance products and high-cost-of failure applications used primarily in the aerospace and defense (“A&D”), industrial, medical and other industries (collectively, “Industrial”). Our operations are organized into two primary businesses: the Electronic Systems segment (“Electronic Systems”) and the Structural Systems segment (“Structural Systems”), each of which is a reportable operating segment. Electronic Systems designs, engineers and manufactures high-reliability electronic and electromechanical products used in worldwide technology-driven markets including A&D and Industrial end-use markets. Electronic Systems’ product offerings primarily range from prototype development to complex assemblies. Structural Systems designs, engineers and manufactures large, complex contoured aerostructure components and assemblies and supplies composite and metal bonded structures and assemblies. Structural Systems’ products are primarily used on commercial aircraft, military fixed-wing aircraft, and military and commercial rotary-wing aircraft. Both reportable operating segments follow the same accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ducommun Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“Ducommun,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), after eliminating intercompany balances and transactions. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not contain all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Our significant accounting policies were described in Part IV, Item 15(a)(1), “Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Form 10-K”). The financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) should be read in conjunction with the 2022 Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of recurring accruals, have been made that are necessary to fairly state our condensed consolidated financial position, statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows in accordance with GAAP for the periods covered by this Form 10-Q. The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.
Our fiscal quarters typically end on the Saturday closest to the end of March, June and September for the first three fiscal quarters of each year, and on December 31 for our fourth fiscal quarter. As a result of using fiscal quarters for the first three quarters combined with leap years, our first and fourth fiscal quarters can range between 12 1/2 weeks to 13 1/2 weeks while the second and third fiscal quarters remain at a constant 13 weeks per fiscal quarter.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Use of Estimates
Certain amounts and disclosures included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements require management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities (including contract liabilities), revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding in each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus any potentially dilutive shares that could be issued if exercised or converted into common stock in each period.
The net income and weighted-average common shares outstanding used to compute earnings per share were as follows:

Fair Value
Assets and liabilities that are measured, recorded or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized using the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine the fair value. Level 1, the highest level, refers to the values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant observable inputs. Level 3, the lowest level, includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.
We have money market funds which are included as cash and cash equivalents. We also have forward interest rate swap agreements and the fair value of the forward interest rate swap agreements was determined using pricing models that use observable market inputs as of the balance sheet date, a Level 2 measurement.
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 financial instruments in the three months ended July 1, 2023.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. These assets are valued at cost, which approximates fair value, and we classify as Level 1. See Fair Value above.

Table of Contents
Derivative Instruments
We recognize derivative instruments on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair value. On the date that we enter into a derivative contract, we designate the derivative instrument as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge, or a derivative instrument that will not be accounted for using hedge accounting methods. In November 2021, we entered into forward interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million, all with an effective date of January 1, 2024 (“Forward Interest Rate Swaps”) to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on a portion of our debt. As such, at the time we entered into the Forward Interest Rate Swaps, there was a high probability of forecasted interest payments on our debts occurring and the swaps are highly effective in offsetting those interest payments and therefore, we elected to apply cash flow hedge accounting. In July 2022, as a result of refinancing all our existing debt, which allows borrowing based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), we were required to complete an amendment of the Forward Interest Rate Swaps from One Month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to One Month Term SOFR (“Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps”), which occurred on the same day. After the transition of the Forward Interest Rate Swaps and debt to SOFR was completed, we determined the hedging relationship was still highly effective as of the amendment date. See Note 7. As of July 1, 2023, all of our derivative instruments were designated as cash flow hedges.
We record changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax until our earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the underlying hedged item. We report changes in the fair values of derivative instruments that are not designated or do not qualify for hedge accounting in current period earnings. We classify cash flows from derivative instruments in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in the same category as the item being hedged or on a basis consistent with the nature of the instrument. Since the Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps are not effective until January 1, 2024, we only record the changes in fair value of the derivative instruments that were highly effective and that were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. As such, during the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we recorded the unrealized gain (loss) to other comprehensive income (loss) of $3.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively, and the associated change to other current assets, other assets, and deferred income taxes. During the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we recorded the unrealized gain (loss) to other comprehensive income (loss) of $1.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, and the associated change to other current assets, other assets, and deferred income taxes.
When we determine that a derivative instrument is not highly effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively. In all situations in which we discontinue hedge accounting and the derivative instrument remains outstanding, we will carry the derivative instrument at its fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognize subsequent changes in its fair value in our current period earnings.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost being determined using a moving average cost basis for raw materials and actual cost for work-in-process and finished goods. The majority of our inventory is charged to cost of sales as raw materials are placed into production. Inventoried costs include raw materials, outside processing, direct labor and allocated overhead, adjusted for any abnormal amounts of idle performance center expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) incurred. We assess the inventory carrying value and reduce it, if necessary, to its net realizable value based on customer orders on hand, and internal demand forecasts using management’s best estimates given information currently available. The majority of our revenues are recognized over time, however, for revenue contracts where revenue is recognized using the point in time method, inventory is not reduced until it is shipped or transfer of control to the customer has occurred. Our ending inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
Accumulated other comprehensive income, as reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets under the equity section, was comprised of cumulative pension and retirement liability adjustments, net of tax, and change in net unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges, net of tax.
Revenue Recognition
Our customers typically engage us to manufacture products based on designs and specifications provided by the end-use customer. This requires the building of tooling and manufacturing first article inspection products (prototypes) before volume manufacturing. Contracts with our customers generally include a termination for convenience clause.
We have a significant number of contracts that are started and completed within the same year, as well as contracts derived from long-term agreements and programs that can span several years. We recognize revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”), which utilizes a five-step model.
The definition of a contract for us is typically defined as a customer purchase order as this is when we achieve an enforceable

right to payment. The majority of our contracts are firm fixed-price contracts. The deliverables within a customer purchase order are analyzed to determine the number of performance obligations. In addition, at times, in order to achieve economies of scale and based on our customer’s forecasted demand, we may build in advance of receiving a purchase order from our customer. When that occurs, we would not recognize revenue until we have received the customer purchase order.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account under ASC 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, control is transferred and the performance obligation is satisfied. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services are highly interrelated or met the series guidance. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract transaction price to each performance obligation using our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The primary method used to estimate the standalone selling price is the expected cost plus a margin approach, under which we forecast our expected costs of satisfying a performance obligation and then add an appropriate margin for that distinct good or service.
We manufacture most products to customer specifications and the product cannot be easily modified for another customer. As such, these products are deemed to have no alternative use once the manufacturing process begins. In the event the customer invokes a termination for convenience clause, we would be entitled to costs incurred to date plus a reasonable profit. Contract costs typically include labor, materials, overhead, and when applicable, subcontractor costs. For most of our products, we are building assets with no alternative use and have enforceable right to payment, and thus, we recognize revenue using the over time method.
The majority of our performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses. Typically, revenue is recognized over time using an input measure (i.e., costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion, also known as cost-to-cost plus reasonable profit) to measure progress. Our typical revenue contract is a firm fixed price contract, and the cost of raw materials could make up a significant amount of the total costs incurred. As such, we believe using the total costs incurred input method would be the most appropriate method. While the cost of raw materials could make up a significant amount of the total costs incurred, there is a direct relationship between our inputs and the transfer of control of goods or services to the customer.
Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that can span multiple months or years. These assumptions include labor productivity and availability; the complexity of the work to be performed; the cost and availability of materials; and the performance of subcontractors.
As a significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the progress completed (and related profitability) on our contracts, we review and update our contract-related estimates on a regular basis. We recognize such adjustments under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate.
The impact of adjustments in contract estimates on our operating earnings can be reflected in either operating costs and expenses or revenue.
Net cumulative catch up adjustments on gross profit recorded were not material for both the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022.
Payments under long-term contracts may be received before or after revenue is recognized. When revenue is recognized before we bill our customer, a contract asset is created for the work performed but not yet billed. Similarly, when we receive payment before we ship our products to our customer and have met the shipping terms, a contract liability is created for the advance or progress payment. When a contract liability and a contract asset exist on the same contract, we report it on a net basis.
We record provisions for the total anticipated losses on contracts, considering total estimated costs to complete the contract compared to total anticipated revenues, in the period in which such losses are identified. The provisions for estimated losses on contracts require us to make certain estimates and assumptions, including those with respect to the future revenue under a contract and the future cost to complete the contract. Our estimate of the future cost to complete a contract may include assumptions as to changes in manufacturing efficiency, operating and material costs, and our ability to resolve claims and assertions with our customers. If any of these or other assumptions and estimates do not materialize in the future, we may be required to adjust the provisions for estimated losses on contracts. The provision for estimated losses on contracts is included as part of contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, provision for estimated losses on contracts were $6.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
Production cost of contracts includes non-recurring production costs, such as design and engineering costs, and tooling and other special-purpose machinery necessary to build parts as specified in a contract. Production costs of contracts are recorded to cost of sales using the over time revenue recognition model. We review the value of the production cost of contracts on a quarterly basis to ensure when added to the estimated cost to complete, the value is not greater than the estimated realizable value of the related contracts. As of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, production cost of contracts were $5.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Contract assets consist of our right to payment for work performed but not yet billed. Contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable when we bill our customers. We bill our customers when we ship the products and meet the shipping terms within the revenue contract. Contract liabilities consist of advance or progress payments received from our customers prior to the time transfer of control occurs plus the estimated losses on contracts. When a contract liability and a contract asset exist on the same contract, we report it on a net basis.
Contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts with customers are as follows:

2023
December 31,
2022
Contract assets$189,836 $191,290 
Contract liabilities$31,719 $47,068 
The decrease in our contract assets as of July 1, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to a net decrease of products in work in process in the current period.
The decrease in our contract liabilities as of July 1, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to a net decrease of advance or progress payments received from our customers in the current period. We recognized $23.0 million of the contract liabilities as of December 31, 2022 as revenues during the six months ended July 1, 2023.
Performance obligations are defined as customer placed purchase orders (“POs”) with firm fixed price and firm delivery dates. Our remaining performance obligations as of July 1, 2023 totaled $916.7 million. We anticipate recognizing an estimated 70% of our remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next 12 months with the remaining performance obligations being recognized in the remainder of 2024 and beyond.

Note 2. Business Combinations
BLR Aerospace, L.L.C. Acquisition
On April 25, 2023, we acquired 100.0% of the outstanding equity interests of BLR Aerospace, L.L.C. (“BLR”), a privately-held leading provider of aerodynamic systems that enhance the productivity, performance, and safety of rotary and fixed-wing aircraft on commercial and military platforms. BLR is located in Everett, Washington. The acquisition of BLR adds to our strategy to diversify and offer more customized, value-driven engineered products with aftermarket opportunities.
The initial purchase price for BLR was $115.0 million, net of cash acquired, all payable in cash, subject to adjustments for working capital. We paid a gross aggregate of $117.0 million in cash upon the closing of the transaction. We allocated the preliminary gross purchase price of $117.0 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values of the net assets was recorded as goodwill.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (in thousands):

The intangible assets acquired of $55.5 million were preliminarily determined based on the estimated fair values using valuation techniques consistent with the income approach to measure fair value, which represented Level 3 fair value measurements. The useful lives were estimated based on the underlying agreements or the future economic benefit expected to be received from the assets. The values for technology and trade name were assessed using the relief from royalty methodology, while the value for customer relationships was estimated based on a multi-period excess earnings approach. Inputs to the income approach models and other aspects of the allocation of the purchase price require judgment. The more significant inputs used in the technology intangible asset valuation include (i) projected revenue, (ii) technology decay rate, and (iii) the discount rate. The more significant inputs used in the customer relationships intangible asset valuation include (i) future revenue growth rates, (ii) projected earnings before interest, taxes, and amortization (“EBITA”), (iii) the customer attrition rates, and (iv) the discount rate.
The goodwill of $41.2 million arising from the acquisition is preliminarily attributable to the benefits we expect to derive from expected synergies from the transaction, including complementary products that will enhance our overall product portfolio, opportunities within new markets, and an acquired assembled workforce. All the goodwill was assigned to the Structural Systems segment. The BLR acquisition, for tax purposes, is deemed an asset acquisition and thus, the goodwill recognized is deductible for income tax purposes.
Acquisition related transaction costs were not included as components of consideration transferred but have been expensed as incurred. Total acquisition-related transaction costs incurred by us were $0.5 million and $1.3 million during the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively, and charged to selling, general and administrative expenses.
BLR’s results of operations have been included in our condensed consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition as part of the Structural Systems segment and were immaterial since the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations of the BLR acquisition have not been presented as the effect of the BLR acquisition was not material to our financial results.
Magnetic Seal LLC Acquisition
In December 2021, we acquired 100.0% of the outstanding equity interests of Magnetic Seal LLC (f/k/a Magnetic Seal Corporation, “MagSeal”), a privately-held leading provider of high-impact, military-proven magnetic seals for critical systems in aerospace and defense applications, offering sealing solutions that are engineered to perform in high-speed, high-vibration, and other challenging environments. MagSeal is located in Warren, Rhode Island. The acquisition of MagSeal continued the advancement our strategy to diversify and offer more customized, value-driven engineered products with aftermarket opportunities.
The original purchase price for MagSeal was $69.5 million, net of cash acquired, all payable in cash. We paid a gross aggregate of $71.3 million in cash upon the closing of the transaction. Subsequent to the closing of the transaction, during the three months ended July 2, 2022, as part of finalizing the working capital adjustment, we received $0.4 million back from the seller which lowered the purchase price to $69.1 million, net of cash acquired. We allocated the final gross purchase price of $70.9 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of the assets acquired included $30.1 million of intangible assets, $4.5 million of inventories, $2.1 million of accounts receivable, $1.5 million of operating lease right-of-use assets, $0.5 million of property and equipment, $0.1 million of other current assets, and $2.3 million of liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $32.6 million was recorded as goodwill. The intangible assets acquired were comprised of $24.8 million for customer relationships, $0.6 million for backlog, and $4.7 million for trade name, and were assigned an estimated useful life of 19 years, two years, and indefinite, respectively. All the goodwill was assigned to the Structural Systems segment. The MagSeal acquisition, for tax purposes, was deemed an asset acquisition and thus, the goodwill recognized was deductible for income tax purposes.
MagSeal’s results of operations have been included in our condensed consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition as part of the Structural Systems segment and were immaterial since the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations of the MagSeal acquisition have not been presented as the effect of the MagSeal acquisition was not material to our financial results.

Note 3. Restructuring Activities
Summary of 2022 Restructuring Plan
In April 2022, management approved and commenced a restructuring plan that will better position us for stronger performance. The restructuring plan will mainly reduce headcount and consolidate facilities. As a result of this restructuring plan, we analyzed the need to write-down inventory and impair long-lived assets, including operating lease right-of-use assets. During the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, we recorded total charges of $4.8 million and $8.9 million, respectively. Cumulative through the six months ended July 1, 2023, we recorded aggregate total charges of $15.6 million ($0.5 million of which was recorded as cost of sales). As of July 1, 2023, we estimate the remaining amount of charges related to this initiative will be $5.0 million to $8.0 million in total pre-tax restructuring charges through 2023. Of these charges, we estimate $4.0 million to $6.0 million to be cash payments for employee separation and other facility consolidation related expenses, and $1.0 million to $2.0 million to be non-cash charges for impairment of long-lived assets.
In the Electronics Systems segment, we recorded charges (reversals) of $2.4 million, zero, and $(0.2) million during the three months ended July 1, 2023, for severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring reversals, respectively. We recorded charges (reversals) of $4.1 million, $0.1 million, and $(0.1) million during the six months ended July 1, 2023, for severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring (reversals), respectively. Cumulative through the six months ended July 1, 2023, we recorded total charges for severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring reversals of $7.6 million, $0.4 million, and $(0.1) million, respectively.
In the Structural Systems segment, we recorded $1.6 million, $0.4 million, and $0.5 million during the three months ended July 1, 2023 for severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring charges, respectively. We recorded $3.3 million, $0.7 million, and $0.8 million during the six months ended July 1, 2023, for severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring charges, respectively. Cumulative through the six months ended July 1, 2023, we recorded total charges for inventory write down that was classified as cost of sales, severance and benefits that were classified as restructuring charges, accelerated depreciation of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, impairment of property and equipment that was classified as restructuring charges, and other restructuring charges of $0.5 million, $4.9 million, $1.2 million, $0.3 million, and $0.8 million, respectively.

Note 5. Goodwill
We perform our annual goodwill impairment test as of the first day of the fourth quarter. If certain factors occur, including significant underperformance of our business relative to expected operating results, significant adverse economic and industry trends, significant decline in our market capitalization for an extended period of time relative to net book value, a decision to divest individual businesses within a reporting unit, or a decision to group individual businesses differently, we may be required to perform an interim impairment test prior to the fourth quarter.
We may use either a qualitative or quantitative approach when testing a reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment. The qualitative approach for potential impairment analysis to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.
The quantitative approach for potential impairment analysis is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value is estimated by management using a combination of the income approach (which is based on a discounted cash flow model) and market approach. Management’s cash flow projections include significant judgments and assumptions, including the amount and timing of expected cash flows, long-term growth rates, and discount rates. The cash flows used in the discounted cash flow model are based on our best estimate of future revenues, gross margins, and adjusted after-tax earnings. If any of these assumptions are incorrect, it will impact the estimated fair value of a reporting unit. The market approach also requires significant management judgment in selecting comparable business acquisitions and the transaction values observed and its related control premiums.
No material adverse factors/changes have occurred since the fourth quarter of 2022 that would require us to perform another qualitative or quantitative assessment. As such, for the second quarter of 2023, it was also not more likely than not that the fair values of the reporting units were less than their carrying amounts and thus, the respective goodwill amounts were not deemed to be impaired.
On April 25, 2023, we completed the acquisition of BLR. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary aggregate fair values of the net assets was recorded as goodwill. See Note 2 for further information.

In July 2022, we completed a refinancing of all our existing debt by entering into a new term loan (“2022 Term Loan”) and a new revolving credit facility (“2022 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2022 Term Loan is a $250.0 million senior secured loan that matures on July 14, 2027. The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility is a $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility that matures on July 14, 2027. The 2022 Term Loan and 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, collectively are the new credit facilities (“2022 Credit Facilities”).
The 2022 Term Loan bears interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% per year or (ii) Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and if the Base Rate is less than zero percent, it will be deemed zero percent) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio. Interest payments are typically paid either on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the interest rate selected, on the last business day each month or quarter. In addition, the 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly amortization payments of 0.625% during year one and year two, 1.250% during year three and year four, and 1.875% during year five of the original outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Term Loan amount, on the last business day each quarter. The required quarterly amortization payments began in the fourth quarter of 2022.
The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility bears interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) Term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% per year or (ii) Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and if the Base Rate is less than zero percent, it will be deemed zero percent) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio. Interest payments are typically paid on a quarterly basis, on the last business day each quarter. The undrawn portion of the commitment of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.275%, based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio, typically paid on a quarterly basis, on the last business day each quarter. However, the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility does not require any principal installment payments.
In conjunction with the closing of the 2022 Credit Facilities, we utilized the entire $250.0 million of proceeds from the 2022 Term Loan plus our existing cash on hand to pay off our entire debt balance outstanding of $254.2 million under our prior credit facilities (described below).

In December 2019, we completed the refinancing of a portion of then our existing debt by entering into a new revolving credit facility (“2019 Revolving Credit Facility”) to replace the then existing revolving credit facility that was entered into in November 2018 (“2018 Revolving Credit Facility”) and entered into a new term loan (“2019 Term Loan”). The 2019 Revolving Credit Facility was a $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility that would have matured on December 20, 2024 and replaced the $100.0 million 2018 Revolving Credit Facility that would have matured on November 21, 2023. The 2019 Term Loan was a $140.0 million senior secured term loan that would have matured on December 20, 2024. We also had a then existing $240.0 million senior secured term loan that was entered into in November 2018 that would have matured on November 21, 2025 (“2018 Term Loan”). The original amounts available under the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility, 2019 Term Loan, and 2018 Term Loan (collectively, the “Existing Credit Facilities”) in aggregate, totaled $480.0 million at that time.
The 2019 Term Loan bore interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) the Eurodollar Rate (defined as the London Interbank Offered Rate [“LIBOR”]) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50% per year or (ii) the Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio, typically payable quarterly. In addition, the 2019 Term Loan required amortization payments of 1.25% of the original outstanding principal balance of the 2019 Term Loan amount on a quarterly basis, on the last day of the calendar quarter.
For the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we made the required quarterly amortization payments on the 2022 Term Loan and 2019 Term Loan of $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. For the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we made the required quarterly amortization payments on the 2022 Term Loan and 2019 Term Loan of $3.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively.
The 2019 Revolving Credit Facility bore interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) the Eurodollar Rate (defined as LIBOR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50% per year or (ii) the Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio, typically payable quarterly. The undrawn portion of the commitment of the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility was subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.275%, based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio. However, the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility did not require any principal installment payments.
The 2018 Term Loan bore interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) the Eurodollar Rate (defined as LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.75% to 4.00% per year or (ii) the Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.75% to 4.00% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio, typically payable quarterly. In addition, the 2018 Term Loan required amortization payments of 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance of the 2018 Term Loan amount on a quarterly basis.
Further, under the then Existing Credit Facilities, if we exceeded the annual excess cash flow threshold, we were required to make an annual additional principal payment based on the consolidated adjusted leverage ratio. The annual mandatory excess cash flow payment was based on (i) 50% of the excess cash flow amount if the adjusted leverage ratio was greater than 3.25 to 1.0, (ii) 25% of the excess cash flow amount if the adjusted leverage ratio was less than or equal to 3.25 to 1.0 but greater than 2.50 to 1.0, and (iii) zero percent of the excess cash flow amount if the consolidated adjusted leverage ratio was less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.0. We did not exceed the annual excess cash flow threshold for 2021 and thus, no annual excess cash flow payment was required to be paid during the first quarter of 2022.
In conjunction with entering into the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2019 Term Loan, we used the $140.0 million of proceeds from the 2019 Term Loan to pay off and close the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility of $58.5 million, paid down a portion of the 2018 Term Loan of $56.0 million, paid the accrued interest associated with the amounts being paid down on the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and 2018 Term Loan, paid the fees related to this transaction, and used the remainder for general corporate purposes. The $56.0 million pay down on the 2018 Term Loan paid all the required quarterly amortization payments on the 2018 Term Loan until maturity.
However, since we were paying down on the term loans during the three months ended April 2, 2022, we were required to pay down on the 2019 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan on a pro-rata basis and thus, we paid down $13.0 million and $17.0 million on the 2019 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan, respectively, for an aggregate total pay down of $30.0 million. During the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we made no other voluntary prepayments on our term loans.
As of July 1, 2023, we had $166.0 million of unused borrowing capacity under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, after deducting $0.2 million for standby letters of credit.
As of July 1, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants required under the 2022 Credit Facilities.

Table of Contents
The 2022 Term Loan was considered a modification of debt for some lenders and an extinguishment of debt for other lenders, and thus, a loss of $0.2 million was recorded related to the extinguishment. In addition, the new fees incurred of $0.8 million were capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the 2022 Term Loan. Further, the remaining debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan of $1.0 million as of the modification date will be amortized over the life of the 2022 Term Loan, using the effective interest method.
The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility that replaced the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility was considered a modification of debt except for the portion related to the creditor that is no longer a part of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and in which case, it was considered an extinguishment of debt. As a result, we expensed the portion of the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility that was considered an extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million. In addition, the new fees incurred of $1.7 million as part of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility were capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. Further, the remaining debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Revolving Credit Facility of $0.8 million as of the modification date will also be amortized over the life of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility.
The 2022 Credit Facilities were entered into by us (“Parent Company”) and guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries, other than two subsidiaries that were considered minor (“Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally guarantee the 2022 Credit Facilities. The Parent Company has no independent assets or operations and therefore, no consolidating financial information for the Parent Company and its subsidiaries is presented.
On April 25, 2023, we completed the acquisition of BLR. The initial purchase price for BLR was $115.0 million, net of cash acquired, all payable in cash. We paid a gross aggregate of $117.0 million in cash upon the closing of the transaction. We utilized the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility to complete the acquisition. See Note 2 for further information.
On May 18, 2023, we completed a public stock offering of our common stock resulting in net proceeds of $85.1 million. We utilized the net proceeds plus cash on hand to pay down $85.2 million on the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 8 for further information.
In November 2021, we entered into derivative contracts, U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR forward interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges, all with an effective date of January 1, 2024, for an aggregate total notional amount of $150.0 million, weighted average fixed rate of 1.8%, and all terminating on January 1, 2031 (“Forward Interest Rate Swaps”). The Forward Interest Rate Swaps mature on a monthly basis, with fixed amount payer payment dates on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on February 1, 2024 through January 1, 2031. The Forward Interest Rate Swaps were deemed to be highly effective upon entering into the derivative contracts and thus, hedge accounting treatment was utilized. Since the Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps (as defined below) are not effective until January 1, 2024, we only record the changes in fair value of the derivative instruments that were highly effective and that were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. As such, during the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we recorded the unrealized gain (loss) to other comprehensive income (loss) of $3.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively, and the associated change to other current assets, other assets, and deferred income taxes. During the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we recorded the unrealized gain (loss) to other comprehensive income (loss) of $1.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, and the associated change to other current assets, other assets, and deferred income taxes. See Note 1 for further information.
In July 2022, as a result of completing a refinancing of our existing debt, we were required to complete an amendment of the Forward Interest Rate Swaps (“Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps”). The Forward Interest Rate Swaps were based on U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR and were amended to be based on one month Term SOFR as borrowings using LIBOR are no longer available under the 2022 Credit Facilities. Since this was an amendment of just the reference rate as a result of the cessation of LIBOR, utilizing the guidance under ASU 2020-04, we determined the Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps as of the amendment date to continue to be highly effective. The Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps weighted average fixed rate is 1.7%, as a result of the difference between U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR and one month Term SOFR.

Note 8. Shareholders’ Equity
On May 18, 2023, we completed a public stock offering of 2.3 million shares of our common stock at $40.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $92.0 million. The common stock offering was made under our effective shelf registration statement. We incurred aggregate total out of pocket stock offering related fees of $6.9 million, resulting in net proceeds of $85.1 million. As such, we recorded an increase to common stock at par value of less than $0.1 million with the remaining amount as an increase to additional paid-in capital of $85.1 million. The public stock offering net proceeds along with cash on hand were used to pay down $85.2 million on the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility that was drawn on and utilized to complete the acquisition of BLR. See Note 2 and Note 7 for further information.

Note 9. Indemnifications
We have made guarantees and indemnities under which we may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain transactions, including revenue transactions in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, we indemnify our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware and have a directors and officers insurance policy that may reduce our exposure in certain circumstances and may enable us to recover a portion of future amounts that may be payable, if any. Moreover, in connection with certain performance center leases, we have indemnified our lessors for certain claims arising from the performance center or the lease.
The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies and, in many cases is indefinite but subject to applicable statutes of limitations. The majority of guarantees and indemnities do not provide any limitations on the maximum potential future payments we could be obligated to make. Historically, payments related to these guarantees and indemnities have been immaterial. We estimate the fair value of our indemnification obligations as insignificant based on this history and insurance coverage and have, therefore, not recorded any liability for these guarantees and indemnities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 10. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is generally less than the U.S. Federal statutory rate, primarily due to research and development (“R&D”) tax credits. Our effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as expected utilization of R&D tax credits, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, recognition or derecognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where we conduct business. Also, excess tax benefits and tax detriments related to our equity compensation recognized in the condensed consolidated income statement could result in fluctuations in our effective tax rate period-over-period depending on the volatility of our stock price, number of restricted or performance stock units that vests, and stock options exercised during the period. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates, for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities along with net operating loss and tax credit carryovers.
We record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets to reduce the net carrying value to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. When we establish or reduce our valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets, the provision for income taxes will increase or decrease, respectively, in the period when that determination is made.
We recorded income tax expense of $1.0 million for both three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022. The increase in income tax expense for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 was due to higher discrete income tax expense primarily related to changes in other deferred tax assets and lower net tax windfalls related to stock-based compensation recognized in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. The increase in income tax expense was partially offset by lower pre-tax income for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.
We recorded income tax expense of $1.8 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to $2.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease in income tax expense for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily due to lower pre-tax income in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease in income tax expense was partially offset by higher income tax expense related to non-deductible book compensation expenses and higher discrete income tax expense primarily related to changes in other deferred tax assets recognized in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022.
Our total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $5.5 million and $4.9 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. If recognized, $2.8 million would affect the effective tax rate. We record interest and penalty charges, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense and unrecognized tax benefits. The amounts accrued for interest and penalty charges as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were not significant. As a result of statute of limitations set to expire in the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect decreases to our unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0.7 million in the next twelve months.
We file U.S. Federal and state income tax returns. We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for tax years after 2018 and by state taxing authorities for tax years after 2017. While we are no longer subject to examination prior to those periods, carryforwards generated prior to those periods may still be adjusted upon examination by the IRS or state taxing authorities if they either have been or will be used in a subsequent period. We believe we have adequately accrued for tax deficiencies or reductions in tax benefits, if any, that could result from the examination and all open audit years.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
In December 2020, a representative action under California’s Private Attorneys General Act was filed against us in the Superior Court for the State of California, County of San Bernardino. We received service of process of this complaint in January 2021. The complaint alleges violations of California’s wage and hour laws relating to our current and former employees and seeks attorney’s fees and penalties. We vigorously refuted and defended these claims, and reached a tentative settlement of $0.8 million during the fourth quarter 2021, which was subject to court approval. Thus, we recorded accrued liabilities of $0.8 million as of December 31, 2021. During the second quarter of 2022, additional factual information was identified resulting in an increase in the amount of the tentative settlement to $0.9 million. Therefore, we recorded an additional accrued liabilities of $0.1 million for a total accrued liabilities amount of $0.9 million as of the end of the second quarter of 2022 which remained unchanged as of December 31, 2022 as we were awaiting final court approval of this settlement. We received final court approval and paid the $0.9 million in January 2023.
Structural Systems has been directed by California environmental agencies to investigate and take corrective action for groundwater contamination at our facilities located in El Mirage and Monrovia, California. Based on currently available information, we have established an accrual for its estimated liability for such investigation and corrective action of $1.5 million at both July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which is reflected in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Structural Systems also faces liability as a potentially responsible party for hazardous waste disposed at landfills located in Casmalia and West Covina, California. Structural Systems and other companies and government entities have entered into consent decrees with respect to these landfills with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and/or California environmental agencies under which certain investigation, remediation and maintenance activities are being performed. Based on currently available information, we preliminarily estimate that the range of our future liabilities in connection with the landfill located in West Covina, California is between $0.4 million and $3.1 million. We have established an accrual for the estimated liability in connection with the West Covina landfill of $0.4 million as of both July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which is reflected in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our ultimate liability in connection with these matters will depend upon a number of factors, including changes in existing laws and regulations, the design and cost of construction, operation and maintenance activities, and the allocation of liability among potentially responsible parties.
In June 2020, a fire severely damaged our performance center in Guaymas, Mexico, which is part of our Structural Systems segment. There were no injuries, however, property and equipment, inventories, and tooling in this leased facility were damaged. Our Guaymas performance center was severely damaged and was comprised of two buildings with an aggregate total of 62,000 square feet. The loss of production from the Guaymas performance center was absorbed by our other existing performance centers, however, we have reestablished and are in the process of ramping up our manufacturing capabilities in a different leased facility with 117,000 square feet in Guaymas. A neighboring, non-related manufacturing facility, also suffered fire damage during the same time as the fire that severely damaged our Guaymas performance center. The cause of the fire is still undetermined and as such, there is no amount of loss that is probable and reasonably estimable at this time.
Our insurance covers damage, up to a capped amount, to the facility, equipment, unfinished inventory, and other assets at replacement cost, finished goods inventory at selling price, as well as business interruption, third party property damage, and recovery related expenses caused by the fire, less our per claim deductible. The anticipated insurance recoveries related to losses and incremental costs incurred are recognized when receipt is probable. The anticipated insurance recoveries in excess of net book value of the damaged operating assets and business interruption will not be recorded until all contingencies related to our claim have been resolved. During the year ended December 31, 2020, $0.8 million of revenue and $0.5 million of related cost of sales were reversed for revenue previously recognized using the over time method as the revenue recognition process for these items were deemed to be interrupted as a result of these inventory items being damaged. Also during the year ended December 31, 2020, we wrote off property and equipment and tooling with an aggregate total net book value of $7.1 million and inventory on hand of $3.4 million that were damaged by the fire. The related anticipated insurance recoveries were also presented within the same financial statement line item in the condensed consolidated statements of income resulting in no net impact, with the anticipated insurance recoveries receivable included as part of other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The insurance claim for damages to our operating assets and business interruption was deemed final and closed by our insurance company during the three months ended July 1, 2023. During the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we received insurance recoveries of $3.8 million and zero, respectively, with $2.1 million and $1.7 million for business interruption and property and equipment damage, respectively, and recognized as other income. During the six months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, we received insurance recoveries of $3.8 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The $3.8 million of insurance recoveries received during the six months ended July 1, 2023 was for business interruption and property and equipment damage of $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and recognized as other income. The $3.0 million received during the six months ended July 2, 2022 was for business interruption, and was recognized as other income. Cumulatively, as

Table of Contents
of July 1, 2023, we have received insurance recoveries in aggregate total of $23.7 million, with $7.5 million for business interruption and $16.2 million for damages to property and equipment, inventories, and tooling. Further, all insurance recovery amounts received related to this claim have been recognized up to the amount of net book value loss and presented within the same financial statement line item in the condensed consolidated statements of income resulting in no net impact, with the remaining amounts recognized as other income in our condensed consolidated statements of income when the contingencies were deemed resolved.
On April 29, 2023, a fire damaged a relatively small portion of one of our performance centers in our Structural Systems reporting segment. There were no injuries, however, subsequent to the fire, we determined that some property and equipment in this company owned facility were damaged. Our insurance covers damage, up to a capped amount, to the property and equipment at replacement cost, as well as business interruption and recovery related expenses caused by the fire, less our per claim deductible. There was a loss of production in this damaged portion of the performance center for a short period of time but did not result in significant disruption to customer delivery schedules. Production in this damaged portion has since resumed. The anticipated insurance recoveries related to losses and incremental costs incurred are recognized when receipt is probable. The anticipated insurance recoveries in excess of net book value of the damaged operating assets and business interruption will not be recorded until all contingencies related to our claim have been resolved. During the three months ended July 1, 2023, we wrote off property and equipment with an aggregate total net book value of $0.2 million. In addition, during the three months ended July 1, 2023, we received insurance recoveries of $0.3 million (which was net of our deductible of $0.1 million) and thus, such insurance recoveries were also presented within the same financial statement line item in the condensed consolidated statements of income resulting in no net impact. The amount of the insurance recoveries received in excess of the loss on operating assets was deemed a contingent gain and since the gain contingencies were deemed resolved, the $0.1 million was recorded as other income during the three months ended July 1, 2023.
In the normal course of business, Ducommun and its subsidiaries are defendants in certain other litigation, claims and inquiries, including matters relating to environmental laws. In addition, Ducommun makes various commitments and incurs contingent liabilities in the ordinary course of business. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, Ducommun does not presently expect that any sum it may be required to pay in connection with these matters would have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Ducommun Incorporated (“Ducommun,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a leading global provider of engineering and manufacturing services for high-performance products and high-cost-of failure applications used primarily in the aerospace and defense (“A&D”), industrial, medical and other industries (collectively, “Industrial”). We differentiate ourselves as a full-service solution-based provider, offering a wide range of value-added products and services in our primary businesses of electronics, structures and integrated solutions. We operate through two primary business segments: Electronic Systems and Structural Systems, each of which is a reportable segment.
COVID-19 Pandemic Impact on Our Business
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our overall business during the prior year three and six months ended July 2, 2022. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, precautionary measures were instituted by governments and businesses to mitigate its spread, including the imposition of travel restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place directives, and shutting down of non-essential businesses.
The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain issues, and other events including the war in Ukraine have contributed and continues to contribute to a general slowdown in the global economy and most significantly, the commercial aerospace end-use market. While both major large aircraft manufacturers, The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Airbus SE, have announced increases in build rates for 2023, the ramp up is slower than expected and below pre-pandemic levels. In its 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Boeing indicated that domestic travel continues to recover from the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and will recover before international travel. However, the pace of the commercial market recovery remains impacted by government restrictions related to COVID-19, especially China. While the full extent and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be reasonably estimated with certainty at this time, in the prior year, COVID-19 had a significant impact on our business, the businesses of our customers and suppliers, as well as our results of operations and financial condition, and such lingering effects could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition for 2023 and beyond.
Second quarter 2023 recap:

Net income of $2.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share
Adjusted EBITDA of $26.1 million, or 13.9% of net revenues

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, Guaymas fire related expenses, insurance recoveries related to loss on operating assets, insurance recoveries related to business interruption, and inventory purchase accounting adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”) were $26.1 million and $24.1 million for the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively.
When viewed with our financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and accompanying reconciliations, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides additional useful information that clarifies and enhances the understanding of the factors and trends affecting our past performance and future prospects. We define this measure, explain how it is calculated and provide a reconciliation of this measure to the most comparable GAAP measure in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios, as presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”), are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. They are not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as measures of our liquidity. The presentation of these measures should not be interpreted to mean that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.
We use Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP operating performance measure internally as a complementary financial measure to evaluate the performance and trends of our businesses. We present Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios, as applicable, because we believe that measures such as these provide useful information with respect to our ability to meet our operating commitments.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include:
27

Table of Contents
It does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
It does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
It does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
It is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
It does not reflect the impact on earnings of charges resulting from matters unrelated to our ongoing operations; and
Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
As a result of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information. See our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Form 10-Q.
Even with the limitations above, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our results of operations as this measure:
Is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such terms, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors;
Helps investors to evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our capital structure from our operating performance; and
Is used by our management team for various other purposes in presentations to our Board of Directors as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.
The following financial items have been added back to or subtracted from our net income when calculating Adjusted EBITDA:
Interest expense may be useful to investors for determining current cash flow;
Income tax expense may be useful to investors because it represents the taxes which may be payable for the period and the change in deferred taxes during the period, and may reduce cash flow available for use in our business;
Depreciation may be useful to investors because it generally represents the wear and tear on our property and equipment used in our operations;
Amortization expense may be useful to investors because it represents the estimated attrition of our acquired customer base and the diminishing value of product rights;
Stock-based compensation may be useful to our investors for determining current cash flow;
Restructuring charges may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance;
Guaymas fire related expenses may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance;
Other fire related expenses may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance;
Insurance recoveries related to loss on operating assets (property and equipment, inventories, and other assets) may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance;
Insurance recoveries related to business interruption may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance; and
Purchase accounting inventory step-ups may be useful to our investors as they do not necessarily reflect the current or on-going cash charges related to our core operating performance.

Net revenues for the three months ended July 1, 2023 were $187.3 million, compared to $174.2 million for the three months ended July 2, 2022. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following:
$21.2 million higher revenues in our commercial aerospace end-use markets due to higher build rates on large aircraft platforms and other commercial aerospace platforms; partially offset by
$10.8 million lower revenues in our military and space end-use markets due to lower build rates on military fixed-wing aircraft platforms and various missile platforms.
Net revenues for the six months ended July 1, 2023 were $368.5 million, compared to $337.7 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following:
$40.2 million higher revenues in our commercial aerospace end-use markets due to higher build rates on other commercial aerospace platforms and large aircraft platforms, partially offset by lower build rates on rotary-wing aircraft platforms; partially offset by
$13.7 million lower revenues in our military and space end-use markets due to lower build rates on military fixed-wing aircraft platforms, various missile platforms, and military rotary-wing aircraft platforms, partially offset by higher build rates on other military and space platforms.

Gross Profit
Gross profit consists of net revenues less cost of sales. Cost of sales includes the cost of production of finished products and other expenses related to inventory management, manufacturing quality, and order fulfillment. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues increased year-over-year with the three months ended July 1, 2023 of 21.4%, compared to the three months ended July 2, 2022 of 19.9% primarily due to favorable product mix and favorable manufacturing volume.
Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues increased year-over-year with the six months ended July 1, 2023 of 20.9%, compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 of 19.9% primarily due to favorable manufacturing volume, partially offset by unfavorable other manufacturing costs and unfavorable product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses
SG&A expenses increased $6.2 million year-over-year in the three months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 2, 2022 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs of $4.1 million, a portion of which was related to the BLR acquisition, and higher other general and administrative expenses of $1.9 million, a portion of which was related to the BLR acquisition.
SG&A expenses increased $9.0 million year-over-year in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs of $4.7 million, a portion of which was related to the BLR acquisition, higher other general and administrative expenses of $2.4 million, a portion of which was related to the BLR acquisition, and higher professional services fees of $2.0 million, mainly due to the BLR acquisition.
Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges increased $2.1 million and $6.2 million year-over-year in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, compared to the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, primarily due to the restructuring plan that was approved and commenced in April 2022 that is expected to better position us for stronger performance. See Note 3 for further information.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $3.1 million and $4.9 million year-over-year in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, primarily due to higher interest rates and a higher outstanding debt balance.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded income tax expense of $1.0 million for both three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022. The increase in income tax expense for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 was due to higher discrete income tax expense primarily related to changes in other deferred tax assets and lower net tax windfalls related to stock-based compensation recognized in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. The increase in income tax expense was partially offset by lower pre-tax income for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.
We recorded income tax expense of $1.8 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to $2.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease in income tax expense for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily due to lower pre-tax income in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022.
32

Table of Contents
The decrease in income tax expense was partially offset by higher income tax expense related to non-deductible book compensation expenses and higher discrete income tax expense primarily related to changes in other deferred tax assets recognized in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022.
Our total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $5.5 million and $4.9 million as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. If recognized, $2.8 million would affect the effective tax rate. We record interest and penalty charges, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense and unrecognized tax benefits. The amounts accrued for interest and penalty charges as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were not significant. As a result of statute of limitations set to expire in the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect decreases to our unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0.7 million in the next twelve months.
We file U.S. Federal and state income tax returns. We are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for tax years after 2018 and by state taxing authorities for tax years after 2017. While we are no longer subject to examination prior to those periods, carryforwards generated prior to those periods may still be adjusted upon examination by the IRS or state taxing authorities if they either have been or will be used in a subsequent period. We believe we have adequately accrued for tax deficiencies or reductions in tax benefits, if any, that could result from the examination and all open audit years.
Net Income and Earnings per Share
Net income and earnings per share for the three months ended July 1, 2023 were $2.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to $4.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the three months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease in net income for the three months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily due to higher SG&A expenses of $6.2 million, higher interest expense of $3.1 million, and higher restructuring charges of $2.1 million, partially offset by higher gross profit of $5.5 million and higher other income of $4.1 million.
Net income and earnings per share for the six months ended July 1, 2023 were $7.6 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to $12.2 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease in net income for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily due to higher SG&A expenses of $9.0 million, higher restructuring charges of $6.2 million, and higher interest expense of $4.9 million, partially offset by higher gross profit of $9.8 million and higher other income of $4.9 million.

$2.4 million lower revenues in our military and space end-use markets due to lower build rates on various missile platforms and military fixed-wing aircraft platforms, partially offset by higher build rates on military rotary-wing platforms.
Structural Systems net revenues in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased $25.3 million primarily due to the following:
$32.1 million higher revenues in our commercial aerospace end-use markets due to higher build rates on large aircraft platforms and other commercial aerospace platforms; partially offset by
$6.8 million lower revenues in our military and space end-use markets due to lower build rates on various missile platforms, military fixed-wing aircraft platforms, and military rotary-wing aircraft platforms.
The Structural Systems segment operating income in the three months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 2, 2022 increased $4.1 million primarily due to favorable product mix and favorable manufacturing volume, partially offset by unfavorable other manufacturing costs.
The Structural Systems segment operating income in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased $4.0 million primarily due to favorable manufacturing volume and favorable product mix, partially offset by unfavorable other manufacturing costs and higher restructure charges.
On April 25, 2023, we acquired 100.0% of BLR Aerospace L.L.C. (“BLR”). The initial purchase price for BLR was $115.0 million, net of cash acquired, all payable in cash. We paid a gross aggregate of $117.0 million in cash upon the closing of the transaction. BLR’s results of operations have been included in our condensed consolidated statements of income since the date of acquisition and is a part of the Structural Systems segment. See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
In June 2020, a fire severely damaged our performance center in Guaymas, Mexico. We have insurance coverage and up to a capped amount, expect these items will be covered, less our deductible. The full financial impact cannot be estimated at this time as we are currently working with our insurance carriers to determine the cause of the fire. The loss of production from the Guaymas performance center was being absorbed by our other existing performance centers, however, we have reestablished and are in the process of ramping up our manufacturing capabilities in a different leased facility in Guaymas. A neighboring, non-related manufacturing facility, also suffered fire damage during the same time as the fire that severely damaged our Guaymas performance center. The cause of the fire is still undetermined and as such, there is no amount of loss that is probable and reasonably estimable at this time. If we are ultimately

deemed to be responsible or partly responsible, it is possible we could incur a loss in excess of our insurance coverage limits, which could be material to our cash flow, liquidity, or financial results. See Note 9 and Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
On April 29, 2023, a fire damaged a relatively small portion of one of our performance centers in our Structural Systems reporting segment. Our insurance covers damage, up to a capped amount, to the property and equipment at replacement cost, as well as business interruption and recovery related expenses caused by the fire, less our per claim deductible. There was a loss of production in this damaged portion of the performance center for a short period of time but did not result in significant disruption to customer delivery schedules. Production in this damaged portion has since resumed. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
Corporate General and Administrative (“CG&A”) Expenses
CG&A expenses increased $2.8 million for the three months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 2, 2022 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs of $2.7 million, a portion of which was related to the acquisition of BLR.
CG&A expenses increased $6.0 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2022 primarily due to higher compensation and benefits costs of $4.4 million, a portion of which was related to the acquisition of BLR, and higher professional services fees of $1.3 million, mainly due to the BLR acquisition.
Backlog
We define backlog as customer placed purchase orders (“POs”) 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 below is greater than the remaining performance obligations amount disclosed in Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Backlog is subject to delivery delays or program cancellations, which are beyond our 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 our net revenues. Backlog in industrial markets tends to be of a shorter duration and is generally fulfilled within a three month period. As a result of these factors, trends in our overall level of backlog may not be indicative of trends in our future net revenues.
The increase in backlog was primarily in the military and space end-use markets and commercial aerospace end-use markets. $677.0 million of total backlog is expected to be delivered over the next 12 months. The following table summarizes our backlog as of July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

In July 2022, we completed a refinancing of all our existing debt by entering into a new term loan (“2022 Term Loan”) and a new revolving credit facility (“2022 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2022 Term Loan is a $250.0 million senior secured loan that matures on July 14, 2027. The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility is a $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility that matures on July 14, 2027. The 2022 Term Loan and 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, collectively are the new credit facilities (“2022 Credit Facilities”). In conjunction with the closing of the 2022 Credit Facilities, we utilized the entire $250.0 million of proceeds from the 2022 Term Loan plus our existing cash on hand to pay off our entire debt balance outstanding of $254.2 million under our prior credit facilities. At the same leverage ratio, the interest rate spread in the 2022 Credit Facilities is lower than the interest rate spread under our prior credit facilities. Interest payments are typically paid either on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the interest rate selected, on the last business day each month or quarter. In addition, the 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly amortization payments of 0.625% during year one and year two, 1.250% during year three and year four, and 1.875% during year five of the original outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Term Loan amount, on the last business day each quarter. Further, the undrawn portion of the commitment of the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.275%, based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio, typically paid on a quarterly basis, on the last business day each quarter. However, the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility does not require any principal installment payments. As of July 1, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants required under the 2022 Credit Facilities. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
We made the mandatory quarterly amortization payments under our existing term loans during the three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 of $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. We made no voluntary prepayments on our term loans during both three months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022.
In April 2022, management approved and commenced a restructuring plan that will position us for stronger performance. The restructuring plan will mainly reduce headcount and consolidate facilities. As a result of this restructuring plan, we analyzed the need to write-down inventory and impair long-lived assets, including operating lease right-of-use assets. As of July 1, 2023, we estimate the remaining amount of charges related to this initiative to be $5.0 million to $8.0 million in total pre-tax restructuring charges through 2023. Of these charges, we estimate $4.0 million to $6.0 million to be cash payments for employee separation and other facility consolidation related expenses, and $1.0 million to $2.0 million to be non-cash charges for impairment of long-lived assets. On an annualized basis, we anticipate these restructuring actions will result in total cost savings of $11.0 million to $13.0 million. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
In November 2021, we entered into derivative contracts, U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR forward interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges, all with an effective date of January 1, 2024, for an aggregate total notional amount of $150.0 million, weighted average fixed rate of 1.8%, and all terminating on January 1, 2031 (“Forward Interest Rate Swaps”). The Forward Interest Rate Swaps mature on a monthly basis, with fixed amount payer payment dates on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on February 1, 2024 through January 1, 2031. See Note 1 and Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
In July 2022, as a result of completing a refinancing of our existing debt, we were required to complete an amendment of the Forward Interest Rate Swaps (“Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps”). The Forward Interest Rate Swaps were based on U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR and were amended to be based on one month Term SOFR as borrowings using LIBOR are no longer available under the 2022 Credit Facilities. The Amended Forward Interest Rate Swaps weighted average fixed rate is 1.7%, as a result of the difference between U.S. dollar-one month LIBOR and one month Term SOFR. See Note 1 and Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
On April 25, 2023, we completed the acquisition of BLR. The initial purchase price for BLR was $115.0 million, net of cash

Table of Contents
acquired, all payable in cash. We paid a gross aggregate of $117.0 million in cash upon the closing of the transaction. We utilized the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility to complete the acquisition. See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
On May 18, 2023, we completed a public stock offering of our common stock resulting in net proceeds of $85.1 million. The stock offering net proceeds along with cash on hand were used to pay down $85.2 million on the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility that was drawn on and utilized to complete the acquisition of BLR. See Note 2, Note 7, and Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information.
We expect to spend a total of $18.0 million to $20.0 million for capital expenditures in 2023 financed by cash generated from operations, principally to support new contract awards in Electronic Systems and Structural Systems. As part of our strategic plan to become a supplier of higher-level assemblies and win new contract awards, additional up-front investment in tooling will be required for newer programs which have higher engineering content and higher levels of complexity in assemblies.
We believe the ongoing aerospace and defense subcontractor consolidation makes acquisitions an increasingly important component of our future growth. We will continue to make prudent acquisitions and capital expenditures for manufacturing equipment and facilities to support long-term contracts for commercial and military aircraft and defense programs.
We monitor our asset base, including the market dynamics of the properties we own, and we may sell such properties and/or enter into sale-leaseback transactions. Such transactions would provide cash for various capital deployment options.
We continue to depend on operating cash flow and the availability of our 2022 Credit Facilities to provide short-term liquidity. Cash generated from operations and bank borrowing capacity is expected to provide sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations during the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.
Cash Flow Summary
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended July 1, 2023 was $9.7 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $6.1 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The net cash used in operating activities during the first six months of 2023 was mainly due to higher inventories, lower contract liabilities, lower accounts payable, lower accrued and other liabilities, and lower net income, partially offset by lower accounts receivable.
Net cash used in investing activities was $125.3 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023, compared to $8.7 million in the six months ended July 2, 2022. The higher net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2023 compared to the prior year period was mainly due to payments for the acquisition of BLR and higher purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $111.6 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023, compared to a net cash used in financing activities of $36.3 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The higher net cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2023 was mainly due to $85.1 million net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in a public offering and $33.8 million net borrowings under the revolving credit facility, partially offset by the voluntary $30.0 million pay down on term loans in the prior year six months ended July 2, 2022.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our off-balance sheet arrangements consist of operating and finance leases not recorded as a result of the practical expedients utilized, right of offset of industrial revenue bonds and associated failed sales-leasebacks on property and equipment, and indemnities, none of which we believe may have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires estimation and judgment that affect the reported amounts of net revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our main market risk exposure relates to changes in U.S. interest rates on our outstanding long-term debt. At July 1, 2023, we had total borrowings of $279.1 million under our 2022 Credit Facilities.

The 2022 Term Loan bears interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% per year or (ii) Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and if the Base Rate is less than zero percent, it will be deemed zero percent) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio.
The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility bears interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) Term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% per year or (ii) Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and if the Base Rate is less than zero percent, it will be deemed zero percent) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio.
A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in the interest rate would have an immaterial impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
