operational performance, margin gains at Ducommun LaBarge Technologies
and commercial aircraft demand,” said
“Having largely integrated LaBarge and its operations to realize
synergies and reduce costs, we are now focused on ensuring that

– within the current economic environment. More than ever, Ducommun’s
customers are recognizing and appreciating the breadth of our offerings,
thus providing opportunities for us to grow via increased technology

and the Company’s backlog represents an attractive mix of programs
across various end markets. We believe the second half of 2012 will
