How important is it?

The reported figures, particularly revenue and operational losses, reflect the company's current performance which significantly impacts investor perception and stock valuation.

Why Short Term?

COSTA MESA, Calif., Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ducommun Incorporated (NYSE: DCO) (“Ducommun” or the “Company”) today reported results for its third quarter ended September 27, 2025. Third Quarter 2025 Recap Net Revenue was $212.6 million, an increase of 6% over Q3 2024Gross margin of 26.6%, year-over-year growth of 40 bpsNet loss of $64.4 million or $4.30 per share, or 30.3% of revenueNon-GAAP adjusted net income of $15.2 million (increase of 2% year-over-year), or $0.99 per diluted shareAdjusted EBITDA of $34.4 million (increase of 8% year-over-year), or 16.2% of revenue, up 40 bps year-over-year “Ducommun had another excellent quarter as we continued to make solid progress towards our VISION 2027 goals with both gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin at record levels. Net revenue grew 6% to a new quarterly record of $212.6 million, led by strength in our defense business which offset the continued headwinds in commercial aerospace OEM demand which was previously forecasted,” said Stephen G. Oswald, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Ducommun’s Missile franchise continued to see strong growth in the quarter along with our military rotorcraft and fixed-wing platforms. Commercial aerospace was weak across the board and destocking continued to impact revenues despite growing production rates at the OEMs, which is very encouraging. The FAA's recent decision to allow Boeing to increase production rates on the 737 MAX to 42 aircraft per month is a big positive and a faster ramp-up in production rates will certainly help burn down the inventory in the system. We were also very pleased to see the Book to Bill ratio very strong for the Company at 1.6 times which established a new record for remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) for the Company. “Ducommun continues to make strong progress as well in its margin expansion journey with gross margins expanding 40 bps year-over-year to 26.6%, continuing the strong momentum from the first half of the year, also at 26.6%. Adjusted EBITDA exceeded $30 million for the third consecutive quarter, expanding 40 bps year-over-year from 15.8% to 16.2% and keeping us on a good pace to meet the VISION 2027 financial goal of 18% Adjusted EBITDA with nine quarters remaining. “The tariff environment continues to evolve but we currently do not expect it to have any material impact on our financial outlook. Ducommun is largely a U.S. manufacturer with U.S. workers and our domestic facilities generate more than 95% of Ducommun’s revenue. We are also making progress in putting in plans to largely mitigate raw materials tariff exposures through either duty exemptions on military products or by passing through to our customers under the terms of our contracts. “In summary, Q3 was another strong performance and full year 2025 is positioned to be another record year for the Company. We are very optimistic for greater revenue growth year-over-year to close out 2025 and beyond as market demand continues to strengthen in both defense and commercial aerospace.” Third Quarter Results Net revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $212.6 million compared to $201.4 million for the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following in the Company's key end-use markets: $14.2 million higher revenue in the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to higher rates on selected missiles, fixed-wing aircraft, rotary-wing aircraft, and ground vehicle weapon platforms; partially offset by$8.1 million lower revenue in the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to lower rates on business jet aircraft and large aircraft platforms. In addition, revenue for the Company’s industrial end-use markets for the third quarter of 2025 increased $5.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2024 mainly due to restocking and last time buys. Net loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $(64.4) million, or (30.3)% of revenue, or $(4.30) per share, compared to net income of $10.1 million, or 5.0% revenue, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. This reflects higher litigation settlement and related costs, net, of $99.7 million, partially offset by lower income tax expense of $19.8 million and higher gross profit of $3.8 million. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2025 was $56.5 million, or 26.6% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $52.7 million, or 26.2% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2024. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net revenue year-over-year was primarily due to lower other manufacturing costs and lower restructuring charges as a result of nearing the completion of the wind down of the Monrovia performance center, partially offset by unfavorable product mix. Operating loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $80.1 million, or 37.7% of revenue, compared to operating income of $15.3 million, or 7.6% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year decrease of $95.3 million was primarily due to higher litigation settlement and related costs, net, partially offset by higher gross profit and lower restructuring charges. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2025 was $22.4 million, or 10.6% of revenue, compared to $21.1 million, or 10.5% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to better operating leverage from higher revenue and gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $34.4 million, or 16.2% of revenue, compared to $31.9 million, or 15.8% of revenue, for the comparable period in 2024. Interest expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $2.9 million compared to $3.8 million in the comparable period of 2024. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due lower interest rates along with a lower debt balance. During the third quarter of 2025, the net cash provided by operations was $18.1 million compared to $13.9 million during the third quarter of 2024. The higher net cash provided by operations during the third quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the litigation settlement and related costs, net, which impacted net loss but has not yet been paid, lower accounts receivable, partially offset by lower contract liabilities, higher contract assets, and lower accrued and other liabilities. Business Segment Information Electronic Systems Electronic Systems segment net revenue for the quarter ended September 27, 2025 was $123.1 million, compared to $115.4 million for the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following in the Company's key end-use markets: $8.2 million higher revenue within the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to higher rates on selected missile and fixed-wing aircraft platforms, partially offset by lower rates on electronic warfare platforms; partially offset by$5.6 million lower revenue in the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to lower rates on large aircraft platforms. In addition, revenue for the Company’s industrial end-use markets for the third quarter of 2025 increased $5.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2024 mainly due to some restocking and last time buys. Electronic Systems segment operating income for the quarter ended September 27, 2025 was $21.1 million, or 17.1% of revenue, compared to $18.9 million, or 16.4% of revenue, for the comparable quarter in 2024. The year-over-year increase of $2.2 million was primarily due to higher manufacturing volume. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2025 was $21.5 million, or 17.5% of revenue, compared to $19.4 million, or 16.8% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. Structural Systems Structural Systems segment net revenue for the quarter ended September 27, 2025 was $89.5 million, compared to $86.0 million for the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the following: $6.0 million higher revenue within the Company’s military and space end-use markets due to higher rates on selected rotary-wing aircraft and ground vehicle weapon platforms; partially offset by$2.5 million lower revenue within the Company’s commercial aerospace end-use markets due to lower rates on business jet aircraft platforms, partially offset by higher rates on large aircraft platforms. Structural Systems segment operating income for the quarter ended September 27, 2025 was $11.9 million, or 13.3% of revenue, compared to $8.3 million, or 9.6% of revenue, for the comparable quarter in 2024. The year-over-year increase of $3.6 million was primarily due to lower other manufacturing costs and lower restructuring charges as a result of nearing the completion of the wind down of the Monrovia performance center, partially offset by lower manufacturing volume. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2025 was $14.3 million, or 16.0% of revenue, compared to $12.6 million, or 14.7% of revenue, in the comparable period last year. Corporate General and Administrative (“CG&A”) Expenses CG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $113.1 million, or 53.2% of total Company revenue, compared to $11.9 million, or 5.9% of total Company revenue, for the comparable quarter in the prior year. The year-over-year increase in CG&A expenses was primarily due to higher litigation settlement and related costs, net, of $99.7 million discussed above.

The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company discloses different non-GAAP financial measures in order to provide greater transparency and to help the Company’s investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare Ducommun’s results to its previously reported results. The non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses may not be comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other companies. The Company defines backlog as customer placed purchase orders and long-term agreements (“LTAs”) with firm fixed price and expected delivery dates of 24 months or less. The majority of the LTAs do not meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606 and thus, the backlog amount disclosed herein may or may not be greater than the remaining performance obligations disclosed under ASC 606. Backlog is subject to delivery delays or program cancellations, which are beyond the Company’s control. Backlog is affected by timing differences in the placement of customer orders and tends to be concentrated in some of the Company’s programs.
