                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


January 19, 1994


To the Management of
  Ducommun Incorporated


In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and the related statements of
income and retained earnings and of cash flows present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Dynatech Microwave Technology, Inc. (a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynatech USA, Inc.) at December 31, 1994, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.  We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

As discussed in Note 1, Jay-El Products, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Ducommun Incorporated) acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed
certain liabilities of Dynatech Microwave Technology, Inc.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 - The Company:

Dynatech Microwave Technology, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in Nevada in
1979.  The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynatech USA, Inc., which is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynatech Corporation.  The Company is engaged
primarily in the manufacture and distribution of switches and other microwave
components used in commercial and military aircraft and in other non-aerospace
commercial applications.

On December 30, 1994, certain assets of the Company were acquired by Jay-El
Products, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ducommun Incorporated) in exchange
for a cash payment to Dynatech, Inc. of $7.5 million and the assumption of
certain liabilities (the Acquisition).  The following assets and liabilities of
the Company, which are included in the accompanying balance sheet, were not
acquired or assumed by Jay-El Products, Inc.:

</TABLE>

The activity of the Company was not significant for the period from December
30, 1994 to December 31, 1994.  The accompanying financial statements and notes
have been prepared as of December 31, 1994, using the Company's historical
basis of accounting, prior to giving effect to the Acquisition.

Note 2 - Summary of Accounting Policies:

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in,
first-out method) or market.
<PAGE>   7

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization are
computed using the straight-line method and the estimated useful lives of the
assets of three to ten years.  Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the
lesser of the remaining life of the lease or their estimated useful lives.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from nonrecurring engineering services and research and development
contracts is recognized using the percentage of completion method based on
costs incurred-to-date to total estimated cost-at-completion.  Unbilled revenue
under these contracts was not significant at December 31, 1994.  Revenue from
product sales is recognized upon product shipment.  During the nine months
ended December 31, 1994, one customer represented 20% of total revenue.

Income Taxes

The Company has an income tax-sharing agreement with Dynatech Corporation
whereby the Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return
of Dynatech Corporation.  The Company's income tax liability has been recorded
in the accompanying financial statements on a separate-return basis.  Income
tax liability for periods prior to and including the year ended March 31, 1993
has been recorded as an intercompany charge due to Dynatech Corporation.

This income tax accounting by the Company, recorded on a separate-return basis,
approximates Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes (FAS 109).  FAS 109 requires an asset and liability approach
that recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial
statements or tax returns.  In estimating future tax consequences, FAS 109
generally considers all expected future events other than enactments or changes
in the tax law or rates.

Geographic Information and Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company markets its products both domestically and internationally.  All
sales are denominated in United States dollars.  Export sales for the nine
months ended December 31, 1994 of $668,000 were primarily to Europe and Asia.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable.
The Company offers credit terms

<PAGE>   8

on the sale of its products to its customers. The Company performs ongoing      
credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and, generally,
requires no collateral from its customers.  The Company maintains an allowance
of uncollectible accounts receivable based upon the expected collectibility of
all accounts receivable.

Note 3 - Related Party Transactions:

Dynatech Corporation provides certain management services to the Company.  The
costs of these services are allocated to the Company based on the Company's
sales and expenses.  Dynatech Corporation also charges interest on the
intercompany balance.  The following summarizes transaction activity with
Dynatech Corporation for the nine months ended December 31, 1994:

</TABLE>                                         


The difference between the current income tax provision and the provision
determined by applying the U.S. statutory income tax rate to pretax income is
due primarily to state income taxes.  Deferred tax assets are attributable
primarily to depreciation for financial reporting purposes in excess of tax.

Note 7 - Employee Benefits:

The Company maintains an Employee Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (the Plan)
which covers all employees of the Company who have completed certain period of
employment requirements.  Under the Plan, employees may elect to contribute 1%
to 15% of their pretax compensation to the Plan, subject to certain limits.  At
the end of each fiscal year the Board of Directors may vote to make a
profit-sharing contribution to the Plan.  The contribution, together with any
forfeitures, is allocated to Plan participants partly as a basic contribution
and partly as a matching contribution.  The matching contributions are to be
not more than 50% of the first $2,000 contributed by the Plan participant
during the fiscal year.  The Company's contribution to the Plan was $43,000 for
the nine months ended December 31, 1994.

Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies:

The Company leases its principal facility in Calabasas, California under a
noncancelable operating lease which provides for escalating lease payments and
for pro rata costs of common area maintenance.  Future minimum lease payments
under all noncancelable operating leases for fiscal years ending December 31
are as follows:

                                  (Unaudited)



The following unaudited pro forma financial statements reflect the
acquisition by Jay-El Products, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ducommun
Incorporated  (Ducommun) on December 30, 1994, of substantially all of the
assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of Dynatech Microwave
Technology, Inc. (DMT), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynatech
Corporation.  The purchase price for DMT was $7.5 million in cash, subject to
adjustments following the closing.  The acquisition was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for
the twelve months ended December 31, 1994 give effect to the  acquisition of
DMT assuming the transaction was consummated as of the beginning of the period
presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations
combine the historical statements of operations of Ducommun and DMT for the
year ended December 31, 1994.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved
had the acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the period presented;
