Item 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 15, 2021, Ducommun LaBarge Technologies, Inc. (the “Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ducommun Incorporated (the “Company”), entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mag Parent, Inc. (“Newco”) and Thomas B. Colby and Lyman J. Colby, to acquire 100% of the securities of Magnetic Seal Corp. (“Magnetic Seal”) from Newco (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction is effective December 16, 2021 and resulted in Magnetic Seal becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer. The purchase price for the Transaction was $69.5 million, net of cash acquired (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustments for working capital. The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties thereto.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The 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 Magnetic Seal, Buyer or the Company. In particular, the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement (i) were made only for purposes of that agreement, (ii) were solely for the benefit of the parties to the 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 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 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 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”).
