Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ducommun Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“Ducommun” or the “Company”), after eliminating intercompany balances and transactions. The consolidated balance sheet is unaudited as of July 3, 2010, the consolidated statements of income are unaudited for the three months and six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009 and the consolidated statements of cash flows are unaudited for the six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009. The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The financial information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The results of operations for the six months ended July 3, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2010.

Ducommun operates in two business segments. Ducommun AeroStructures, Inc. (“DAS”), engineers and manufactures aerospace structural components and subassemblies. Ducommun Technologies, Inc. (“DTI”), designs, engineers and manufactures electromechanical components and subsystems, and provides engineering, technical and program management services (including design, development, integration and test of prototype products) principally for the aerospace and military markets. The significant accounting policies of the Company and its two business segments are as described below.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is 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 plus income associated with dilutive securities by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus any potential dilutive shares that could be issued if exercised or converted into common stock in each period.

(Unaudited)

The weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute earnings per share is as follows:

The numerator used to compute diluted earnings per share is as follows:

The weighted average number of shares outstanding, included in the table below, is excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the average market price did not exceed the exercise price. However, these shares may be potentially dilutive common shares in the future.

Comprehensive Income

Certain items such as unrealized gains and losses on certain hedging instruments and pension liability adjustments are presented as separate components of shareholders’ equity. The current period change in these items is included in other comprehensive loss and separately reported in the financial statements. Accumulated other comprehensive loss, as reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the equity section, is comprised of a pension liability adjustment of $3,146,000, net of tax, and an interest rate hedge mark-to-market adjustment of $137,000, net of tax, at July 3, 2010, compared to a pension liability adjustment of $3,146,000, net of tax, and an interest rate hedge mark-to-market adjustment of $408,000, net of tax, at December 31, 2009.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” (“ASU 2010-09”) which amends ASC 855, “Subsequent Events,” to address certain implementation issues related to any entity’s requirement to perform and disclose subsequent-events procedures. ASU 2010-09 requires SEC filers to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and exempts SEC filers from disclosing the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The ASU was effective immediately upon issuance. The adoption of ASU 2010-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance on the use of the milestone method of revenue recognition that applies to research of development transactions in which one or more payments are contingent upon achieving uncertain future events or circumstances. This update provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. This guidance is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, and it has not yet determined the impact of the standard on its financial position or results of operations, if any.

Use of Estimates

Certain amounts and disclosures included in the consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, 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.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Note 2. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

Note 3. Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt is summarized as follows:

At July 3, 2010, the Company had $98,450,000 of unused lines of credit, after deducting $450,000 for outstanding standby letters of credit. The Company had outstanding loans of $21,100,000 and was in compliance with all covenants at July 3, 2010. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding was 6.29% at July 3, 2010, compared to 5.53% at July 4, 2009. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates fair value based on the terms of the related debt, recent transactions and estimates using interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Note 4. Shareholders’ Equity

At July 3, 2010, $2,773,030 remained available to repurchase common stock of the Company under stock repurchase programs as previously approved by the Board of Directors. The Company repurchased in the open market 20,439 shares for $404,000 and 80,576 shares for $1,042,000 of its common stock during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 5. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering certain hourly employees of a subsidiary. Pension plan benefits are generally determined on the basis of the retiree’s age and length of service. Assets of the defined benefit pension plan are composed primarily of fixed income and equity securities.

The components of net periodic pension cost for the defined benefit pension plan are as follows:

Note 6. Indemnifications

The Company has made guarantees and indemnities under which it 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. In connection with certain facility leases the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the facility or the lease. The Company indemnifies its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. However, the Company has a directors and officers insurance policy that may reduce its exposure in certain circumstances and may enable it to recover a portion of future amounts that may be payable, if any. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies and, in many cases is indefinite but subject to statute of limitations. The majority of guarantees and indemnities do not provide any limitations of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, payments related to these guarantees and indemnities have been immaterial. The Company estimates the fair value of its indemnification obligations as insignificant based on this history and insurance coverage and has, therefore, not recorded any liability for these guarantees and indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will not have any future financial exposure under these indemnification obligations.

Note 7. Income Taxes

The Company records the interest charge and penalty charge, if any, with respect to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense. During the six months ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009, the Company recognized approximately $57,000 and $56,000, respectively, in interest related to uncertain tax positions. The Company had approximately $361,000 and

11

Table of Contents

DUCOMMUN INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

$303,000 for the payment of interest and penalties accrued at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The Company’s total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $2,723,000 and $2,573,000 at July 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. These amounts, if recognized, would affect the income tax rate.

The Company’s California franchise (income) tax returns for 2004 and 2005 have been selected for examination. The Company does not expect the results of this examination to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Federal income tax returns after 2006, California franchise (income) tax returns after 2005 and other state income tax returns after 2005 are subject to examination.

Note 8. Contingencies

The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit entitled United States of America ex rel Taylor Smith, Jeannine Prewitt and James Ailes v. The Boeing Company and Ducommun Inc., filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas (the “District Court”). The lawsuit is a qui tam action brought against The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Ducommun on behalf of the United States of America for violations of the United States False Claims Act. The lawsuit alleges that Ducommun sold unapproved parts to the Boeing Commercial Airplanes-Wichita Division which were installed by Boeing in aircraft ultimately sold to the United States government. The number of Boeing aircraft subject to the lawsuit has been reduced to 25 aircraft following the District Court’s granting of partial summary judgment in favor of Boeing and Ducommun. The lawsuit seeks damages, civil penalties and other relief from the defendants for presenting or causing to be presented false claims for payment to the United States government. Although the amount of alleged damages are not specified, the lawsuit seeks damages in an amount equal to three times the amount of damages the United States government sustained because of the defendants’ actions, plus a civil penalty of $10,000 for each false claim made on or before September 28, 1999, and $11,000 for each false claim made on or after September 28, 1999, together with attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the lawsuit. The Company, at this time, is unable to estimate what, if any, liability it may have in connection with the lawsuit.

DAS has been directed by California environmental agencies to investigate and take corrective action for ground water contamination at its facilities located in El Mirage and Monrovia, California. Based on currently available information, the Company has established a reserve for its estimated liability for such investigation and corrective action in the approximate amount of $1,247,000. DAS also faces liability as a potentially responsible party for hazardous waste disposed at two landfills located in Casmalia and West Covina, California. DAS and other companies and government entities have entered into consent decrees with respect to each landfill with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and/or California environmental agencies under which certain investigation, remediation and maintenance activities are being performed. Based upon currently available information, the Company has established a reserve for its estimated liability in connection with the landfills in the approximate amount of

12

Table of Contents

DUCOMMUN INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

$1,074,000. The Company’s 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 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, the Company makes various commitments and incurs contingent liabilities. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, the Company 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 consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 9. Business Segment Information

The Company supplies products and services to the aerospace industry. The Company’s subsidiaries are organized into two strategic businesses, each of which is a reportable operating segment. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. Ducommun AeroStructures, Inc. (“DAS”), engineers and manufactures aerospace structural components and subassemblies. Ducommun Technologies, Inc. (“DTI”), designs, engineers and manufactures electromechanical components and subsystems, and provides engineering, technical and program management services (including design, development, integration and test of prototype products) principally for the aerospace and military markets.

Overview

Ducommun Incorporated (“Ducommun” or the “Company”), through its subsidiaries designs, engineers and manufactures aerostructure and electromechanical components and subassemblies, and provides engineering, technical and program management services principally for the aerospace industry. These components, assemblies and services are provided principally for domestic and foreign commercial and military aircraft, helicopter, missile and space programs.

Domestic commercial aircraft programs include the Boeing 737NG, 747, 767, 777 and 787. Foreign commercial aircraft programs include the Airbus Industrie A330 and A340 aircraft, Bombardier business and regional jets, and the Embraer 145 and 170/190. Major military programs include the Boeing C-17, F-15 and F-18 and Lockheed Martin F-16 and F-22 aircraft, and various aircraft and shipboard electronics upgrade programs. Commercial and military helicopter programs include helicopters manufactured by Boeing (principally the Apache and Chinook helicopters), United Technologies, Bell, Augusta and Carson. The Company also supports various unmanned space launch vehicle and satellite programs.

Sales, gross profit as a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of sales, the effective tax rate and the diluted earnings per share in the second quarter and six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, were as follows:

The Company manufactures components and assemblies principally for domestic and foreign commercial and military aircraft, helicopter and space programs. The Company’s Miltec subsidiary provides engineering, technical and program management services almost entirely for United States defense, space and homeland security programs.

Table of Contents

The Company’s mix of military, commercial and space business in the second quarter and six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, was approximately as follows:

Sales for the second quarter of 2010 decreased 1% to $102,937,000 as compared to $103,825,000 for the second quarter of 2009. The slight decrease in sales for the second quarter of 2010 was due to lower period-over-period revenues of engineering services. Product sales in the second quarter of 2010 increased due to growth in sales for large fixed wing commercial and military aircraft programs, partially offset by lower sales for helicopter programs.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2010 increased 19% from the second quarter of 2009. Operating income for the second quarter of 2010 was favorably impacted by a richer revenue mix and improved operating efficiencies. Operating income was negatively impacted in the second quarter of 2010 by $1,131,000, or 1.7 percentage points due to the continuation of 2010 start-up and development costs for several new programs which generated approximately $2,831,000 in sales, higher expenses from the amortization of intangible assets and higher stock-based compensation expenses. In addition, operating income for the second quarter of 2010 was favorably impacted by an adjustment to operating expenses of approximately $1,144,000, or 1.1 percentage points, relating to the reversal of certain accounts payable accruals recorded in prior periods. The Company assessed the materiality of this reversal and concluded it was immaterial to previously reported annual and interim amounts. Operating income for the second quarter of 2009 was adversely impacted by an inventory valuation adjustment of $782,000, or 0.8 percentage points.

Results of Operations

Second Quarter of 2010 Compared to Second Quarter of 2009

Net sales in the second quarter of 2010 were $102,937,000, compared to net sales in the second quarter of 2009 of $103,825,000. Net sales in the second quarter of 2010 decreased 1% from the same period last year primarily due to lower period-over-period sales of engineering services. Product sales in the second quarter of 2010 increased due to growth in sales for large fixed wing commercial and military aircraft programs, partially offset by lower sales for helicopter programs. The Company’s mix of business in the second quarter of 2010 was approximately 58% military, 40% commercial, and 2% space, compared to 58% military, 39% commercial, and 3% space in the second quarter of 2009.

The Company had substantial sales, through both of its business segments, to Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government. During the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, sales to these customers were as follows:

At July 3, 2010, trade receivables from Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government were $13,096,000, $4,322,000, $3,797,000 and $720,000, respectively. The sales and receivables relating to Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government are diversified over a number of different commercial, space and military programs.

Military components manufactured by the Company are employed in many of the country’s front-line fighters, bombers, helicopters and support aircraft, as well as sea-based applications. Engineering, technical and program management services are provided principally for United States defense, space and homeland security programs. The Company’s defense business is diversified among military manufacturers and programs. Sales related to military programs were approximately $60,112,000, or 58% of total sales, in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $60,571,000, or 58% of total sales, in the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in military sales in the second quarter of 2010 resulted principally from a reduction in sales to the Chinook helicopter, Apache helicopter and the C-17 programs at DAS and lower revenues from

17

Table of Contents

engineering services at DTI, partially offset by increases in sales to the F-15 and F-18 aircraft programs at DTI and the Blackhawk programs mainly at DAS.

Military sales during the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 included the following programs:

The Company’s commercial business is represented on many of today’s major commercial aircraft. Sales related to commercial business were approximately $41,070,000, or 40% of total sales, in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $40,111,000, or 39% of total sales, in the second quarter of 2009. The increase in commercial sales in the second quarter of 2010 resulted principally from growth in sales for large fixed wing commercial aircraft, partially offset by a reduction in sales of commercial helicopter programs. Sales to the Boeing 737NG program accounted for approximately $10,730,000 in sales in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $10,611,000 in sales in the second quarter of 2009.

In the space sector, the Company produces components for a variety of unmanned launch vehicles and satellite programs and provides engineering services. Sales related to space programs were approximately $1,755,000, or 2% of total sales in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $3,143,000, or 3% of total sales in the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in sales for space programs resulted principally from a decrease in engineering services at DTI.

Gross profit, as a percent of sales, increased to 21.7% in the second quarter of 2010, compared to 19.0% in the second quarter of 2009. Gross profit margins for the second quarter of 2010 were favorably impacted by a richer revenue mix and improved operating efficiencies. Gross profit was negatively impacted in the second quarter of 2010 by $1,131,000, or 1.7 percentage points, due to the continuation of 2010 start-up and development costs for several new programs which generated approximately $2,831,000 in sales. In addition, gross profit for the second quarter of 2010 was favorably impacted by an adjustment to operating expenses of approximately $1,123,000, or 1.1 percentage points, relating to the reversal of certain accounts payable accruals recorded in prior periods. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company determined that certain accounts payables that were accrued during the period from 2004 to

18

Table of Contents

2009, in fact had been paid or were not otherwise owed to its suppliers. The Company assessed the materiality of this reversal and concluded it was immaterial to previously reported annual and interim amounts. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2009 was adversely impacted by an inventory valuation adjustment of $782,000, or 0.8 percentage points.

The Company assessed the materiality of the correction mentioned above individually and aggregated with other previously identified errors and concluded that they were immaterial to previously reported annual and interim amounts and that the correction of the errors in 2010 would not be material to the current year results of operations. Accordingly, the Company corrected these errors in the financial statements for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010 and did not restate its consolidated financial statements for the prior years or interim periods impacted.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased to $13,316,000, or 12.9% of sales, in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $12,135,000, or 11.7% of sales, in the second quarter of 2009. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to higher expenses from the amortization of intangible assets and higher stock-based compensation expenses.

Interest expense was $596,000 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $714,000 in the second quarter of 2009, primarily due to lower debt levels, partially offset by higher interest rates in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009.

Income tax expense increased to $2,778,000 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $2,270,000 in the second quarter of 2009. The increase in income tax expense was due to the increase in income before taxes partially offset by a slightly lower effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2010 was 32.9%, compared to 33.0% in the second quarter of 2009.

Six Months of 2010 Compared to Six Months of 2009

Net sales in the six months of 2010 were $207,193,000, compared to net sales in the six months of 2009 of $215,180,000. Net sales in the six months of 2010 decreased 4% from the same period last year primarily due to lower sales of engineering services, partially offset by growth in product sales of commercial and military aircraft programs. The Company’s mix of business in the six months of 2010 was approximately 58% military, 40% commercial, and 2% space, compared to 60% military, 38% commercial, and 2% space in the six months of 2009.

The Company had substantial sales, through both of its business segments, to Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government. During the six months of 2010 and 2009, sales to these customers were as follows:

Table of Contents

At July 3, 2010, trade receivables from Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government were $13,096,000, $4,322,000, $3,797,000 and $720,000, respectively. The sales and receivables relating to Boeing, Raytheon, United Technologies and the United States government are diversified over a number of different commercial, space and military programs.

Military components manufactured by the Company are employed in many of the country’s front-line fighters, bombers, helicopters and support aircraft, as well as sea-based applications. Engineering, technical and program management services are provided principally for United States defense, space and homeland security programs. The Company’s defense business is diversified among military manufacturers and programs. Sales related to military programs were approximately $121,020,000, or 58% of total sales, in the six months of 2010, compared to $128,514,000, or 60% of total sales, in the six months of 2009. The decrease in military sales in the six months of 2010 resulted principally from a decrease in sales to the Apache helicopter and Chinook helicopter programs at DAS and a decrease in revenues from engineering services at DTI, partially offset by increases in sales to the Blackhawk program at DAS and the F-18 and F-15 aircraft programs at DTI.

Military sales during the six months of 2010 and 2009 included the following programs:

The Company’s commercial business is represented on many of today’s major commercial aircraft. Sales related to commercial business were approximately $82,698,000, or 40% of total sales, in the six months of 2010, compared to $81,354,000, or 38% of total sales, in the six months of 2009. The increase in commercial sales in the six months of 2010 resulted principally from growth in sales for large commercial aircraft programs, partially offset by a decline in sales for regional and business aircraft. Sales to the Boeing 737NG program accounted for approximately $21,638,000 in sales in the six months of 2010, compared to $20,714,000 in sales in the six months of 2009.

In the space sector, the Company produces components for a variety of unmanned launch vehicles and satellite programs and provides engineering services. Sales related to space

Table of Contents

programs were approximately $3,475,000, or 2% of total sales in the six months of 2010, compared to $5,312,000, or 2% of total sales in the six months of 2009. The decrease in sales for space programs resulted principally from a decrease in engineering services at DTI.

Backlog is subject to delivery delays or program cancellations, which are beyond the Company’s control. As of July 3, 2010, backlog believed to be firm was approximately $305,616,000, compared to $367,183,000 at December 31, 2009. The reduction in backlog is reflective of (i) slower than anticipated order releases from the regional and business aircraft customers due primarily to the changing market demand in 2009, (ii) planned reductions in the Apache helicopter program, (iii) late order release on the F-18, Apache and C-17 programs and Carson helicopter follow on orders, (iv) a change in order release policy from Boeing and United Technologies from annual order releases to quarter over quarter releases and (v) declines in the engineering services business resulting from lower RDT&E budgets, reduced demand for specific engineering services as a result of increases in government in-sourcing and reduced Congressional earmarks. Approximately $160,000,000 of total backlog is expected to be delivered during the second half of 2010.

The backlog at July 3, 2010 included the following programs:

Trends in the Company’s overall level of backlog, however, may not be indicative of trends in future sales because the Company’s backlog is affected by timing differences in the placement of customer orders and because the Company’s backlog tends to be concentrated in several programs to a greater extent than the Company’s sales.

Gross profit, as a percent of sales, increased to 20.1% in the six months of 2010, compared to 17.2% in the six months of 2009. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted in the six months of 2010 by $2,894,000, or 2.0 percentage points, due to the continuation of 2010 start-up and development costs on several new programs which generated approximately $5,881,000 in sales. In addition, gross profit for the six months of 2010 was favorably impacted by an adjustment to operating expenses of approximately $1,123,000, or 0.5 percentage points,

relating to the reversal of certain accounts payable accruals recorded in prior periods. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company determined that certain accounts payables that were accrued during the period from 2004 to 2009, in fact had been paid or were not otherwise owed to suppliers. The Company assessed the materiality of this reversal and concluded it was immaterial to previously reported annual and interim amounts. Gross profit for the six months of 2009 was negatively impacted by $5,141,000, or 2.4 percentage points of sales, due to an inventory reserve of $4,359,000 related to the Eclipse Aviation Corporation bankruptcy filing in March 2009 and an inventory valuation adjustment of $782,000.

The Company assessed the materiality of the correction mentioned above individually and aggregated with other previously identified errors and concluded that they were immaterial to previously reported annual and interim amounts and that the correction of the errors in 2010 would not be material to the current year results of operations. Accordingly, the Company corrected these errors in the financial statements for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010 and did not restate its consolidated financial statements for the prior years or interim periods impacted.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased to $25,779,000, or 12.4% of sales, in the six months of 2010, compared to $24,944,000, or 11.6% of sales, in the six months of 2009. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to higher expenses from the amortization of intangible assets of approximately $1,173,000.

Interest expense was $1,148,000 in the six months of 2010, compared to $1,353,000 in the six months of 2009, primarily due to lower debt levels, partially offset by higher interest rates in the six months of 2010 compared to the six months of 2009.

Income tax expense increased to $4,858,000 in the six months of 2010, compared to $3,543,000 in the six months of 2009. The increase in income tax expense was due to the increase in income before taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months of both 2010 and 2009 was 33.0%.

Financial Condition

Cash Flow Summary

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months of 2010 and 2009 was $9,330,000 and $15,069,000, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months of 2010 was impacted by an increase in accounts and unbilled receivables of $5,656,000 primarily related to the timing of billings to customers and extension of payments by the customers, a reduction in accrued and other liabilities of $8,764,000 (consisting primarily of a $6,428,000 decrease in accrued bonuses, a $2,153,000 reduction in customer deposits and $183,000 reduction in other accrued liabilities), a decrease in accounts payable of $5,541,000 and an increase in inventory of $6,328,000 primarily related to a reduction in customer progress payments.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months of 2010 consisted primarily of $3,779,000 of capital expenditures.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months of 2010 of $4,421,000 included approximately $3,078,000 of repayment of borrowings, $1,572,000 of dividend payments, partially offset by $220,000 of cash receipts related to the exercise of stock options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 3, 2010, the Company had $98,450,000 of unused lines of credit, after deducting $450,000 for outstanding standby letters of credit. The Company had outstanding loans of $21,100,000 and was in compliance with all covenants at July 3, 2010.

The Company continues to depend on operating cash flow and the availability of its bank line of credit to provide short-term liquidity. Cash from operations and bank borrowing capacity are expected to provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company’s obligations during the next twelve months.

In connection with the DAS-New York acquisition in December 2008, the Company issued a promissory note in the initial principal amount of $7,000,000 with interest of five percent (5%) per annum payable annually on each anniversary of the closing date (December 23). Principal of the promissory note is payable in the amount of $4,000,000, which was paid on June 23, 2010, and $3,000,000 on December 23, 2013.

The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding was 6.29% at July 3, 2010, compared to 5.53% at July 4, 2009. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates fair value based on the terms of the related debt, recent transactions and estimates using interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

The Company expects to spend approximately $9,000,000 for capital expenditures in 2010. The increase in capital expenditures in 2010 from 2009 is principally to support new contract awards at DAS and DTI. The Company believes the ongoing subcontractor consolidation makes acquisitions an increasingly important component of the Company’s future growth. The Company plans to continue to seek attractive acquisition opportunities and to make substantial capital expenditures for manufacturing equipment and facilities to support long-term contracts for both commercial and military aircraft programs.

The Company spent approximately $2,305,000 for tooling related investment on various sales programs in 2010. As part of the Company’s strategic direction in moving to a Tier 2 supplier additional up front investment in tooling will be required for newer programs which have higher engineering content and higher levels of complexity in assemblies.

Dividends are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, and will depend upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position. The Company expects to continue to pay dividends of $0.075 per quarter per common share in 2010.

The Company has made guarantees and indemnities under which it 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. In connection with certain facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the facility or the lease. The Company indemnifies its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. However, the Company has a directors and officers insurance

policy that may reduce its exposure in certain circumstances and may enable it to recover a portion of future amounts that may be payable, if any. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies and, in many cases, is indefinite but subject to statute of limitations. The majority of guarantees and indemnities do not provide any limitations of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, payments related to these guarantees and indemnities have been immaterial. The Company estimates the fair value of its indemnification obligations as insignificant based on this history and insurance coverage and has, therefore, not recorded any liability for these guarantees and indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will not have any future financial exposure under these indemnification obligations.

As of July 3, 2010, the Company expects to make the following payments on its contractual obligations (in thousands):

The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit entitled United States of America ex rel Taylor Smith, Jeannine Prewitt and James Ailes v. The Boeing Company and Ducommun Inc., filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas (the “District Court”). The lawsuit is a qui tam action brought against The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Ducommun on behalf of the United States of America for violations of the United States False Claims Act. The lawsuit alleges that Ducommun sold unapproved parts to the Boeing Commercial Airplanes-Wichita Division which were installed by Boeing in aircraft ultimately sold to the United States government. The number of Boeing aircraft subject to the lawsuit has been reduced to 25 aircraft following the District Court’s granting of partial summary judgment in favor of Boeing and Ducommun. The lawsuit seeks damages, civil penalties and other relief from the defendants for presenting or causing to be presented false claims for payment to the United States government. Although the amount of alleged damages are not specified, the lawsuit seeks damages in an amount equal to three times the amount of damages the United States government sustained because of the defendants’ actions, plus a civil penalty of $10,000 for each false claim made on or before September 28, 1999, and $11,000 for each false claim made on or after September 28, 1999, together with attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the lawsuit. The Company, at this time, is unable to estimate what, if any, liability it may have in connection with the lawsuit.

DAS has been directed by California environmental agencies to investigate and take corrective action for ground water contamination at its facilities located in El Mirage and Monrovia, California. Based on currently available information, the Company has established a reserve for its estimated liability for such investigation and corrective action in the approximate amount of $1,247,000. DAS also faces liability as a potentially responsible party for hazardous waste disposed at two landfills located in Casmalia and West Covina, California. DAS and other companies and government entities have entered into consent decrees with respect to each landfill with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and/or California environmental agencies under which certain investigation, remediation and maintenance activities are being performed. Based upon currently available information, the Company has established a reserve for its estimated liability in connection with the landfills in the approximate amount of $1,074,000. The Company’s 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 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, the Company makes various commitments and incurs contingent liabilities. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, the Company 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 consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements consist of operating leases and indemnities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” (“ASU 2010-09”) which amends ASC 855, “Subsequent Events,” to address certain implementation issues related to any entity’s requirement to perform and disclose subsequent-events procedures. ASU 2010-09 requires SEC filers to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and exempts SEC filers from disclosing the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The ASU was effective immediately upon issuance. The adoption of ASU 2010-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance on the use of the milestone method of revenue recognition that applies to research of development transactions in which one or more payments are contingent upon achieving uncertain future events or circumstances. This update provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. This guidance is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, and it has not yet determined the impact of the standard on its financial position or results of operations, if any.
