PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Ducommun Incorporated (the “Company” or “we”) is filing this Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission because additional time is needed for the Company to complete its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Form 10-K”), which is due on March 16, 2015, because of the additional time needed for the Company to finalize its review and quantification of the accounting errors described below.

As reported in its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2015 (the “Form 8-K”), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Audit Committee”), after considering the recommendation of management, concluded on March 12, 2015 that the Company’s previously issued financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “Prior 10-K”), and the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of the year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Prior 10-Qs”), should no longer be relied upon because of prior period errors in such financial statements. The conclusions reached were discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The prior period errors were discovered in connection with (i) a review by the Company of a long-term contract following the discovery of misconduct by employees in the recording of direct labor costs to the contract from 2009 through the third quarter 2014, which resulted in the identification of a forward loss provision that should have been recorded in a prior period; and (ii) the year end reconciliation of income taxes payable and deferred tax balances that identified errors primarily in 2012 and 2013. Upon completion of the review of these matters and their impact on the above-referenced financial statements, the Company expects to restate its financial statements previously included in the Prior 10-K. The Company has additionally concluded that the control deficiencies that failed to detect these errors constitute material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 and for each of the quarters in the nine months ended September 27, 2014. These material weaknesses remain unremediated as of December 31, 2014.

When combined with the impact of prior period errors previously disclosed in the Company’s financial statements included in the Prior 10-K and Prior 10-Qs, the Company anticipates that the correction of the errors described above generally will result in an increase in the Company’s net income for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013 and the nine months ended September 27, 2014, as a result of establishing a contract loss reserve in a prior period. However, the Company presently cannot quantify the amount of the anticipated increase in net income because it has not completed the review described above. The Company expects to file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 on or before March 31, 2015, within the 15-day extension provided under Rule 12b-25 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
