Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 8, 2019, Ducommun LaBarge Technologies, Inc. (the Buyer), an Arizona corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
Ducommun Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the Company), entered into and closed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Nobles Merger Agreement) with Nobles Parent, Inc. (Nobles Parent), a Delaware corporation,
DLT Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Merger Sub), and Levine Leichtman Capital Partners Private Capital Solutions, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, in its capacity as stockholder representative (the Stockholder
Representative).
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Nobles Merger Agreement, on October 8, 2019,
Merger Sub merged with and into Nobles Parent, with Nobles Parent surviving the merger, resulting in Nobles Parent becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the Nobles
Acquisition). The purchase price for the Nobles Acquisition consisted of $77.0 million in cash (the Purchase Price), subject to adjustments for cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses. The Nobles Merger Agreement contains
customary representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties.
The foregoing description of the Nobles Merger
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Nobles Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The Nobles Merger
Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any financial or other factual information about Nobles Parent, Buyer or the Company. In particular, the representations, warranties
and covenants contained in the Nobles Merger Agreement (i) were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates, (ii) were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Nobles Merger Agreement, (iii) may be subject to
limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Nobles Merger Agreement instead of establishing those matters as facts and (iv) may
be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the
date of the Nobles Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company. Accordingly, investors should read the representations and warranties in the Nobles Merger Agreement not in
isolation but only in conjunction with the other information about the Company and its subsidiaries that the Company includes in reports, statements and other filings it makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
The information contained in Item 1.01 regarding the Nobles Acquisition is incorporated into this Item 2.01 by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of
a Registrant.
On October 7, 2019, the Company borrowed $77.6 million under its revolving credit facility (the
Revolving Credit Facility) under the Credit Agreement, dated November 21, 2018, as amended (the Credit Agreement), among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swingline
lender and issuing bank, and other lenders party thereto to fund the full Purchase Price. Following the draw down, the Company had approximately $22.4 million available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility.
A summary of the material terms of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Credit Agreement is included in the Companys Current Report on
Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 26, 2018 and is incorporated herein by reference.
