Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Participants of the LaBarge, Inc. Employee Savings Plan and
The Plan Administration Committee of LaBarge, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the LaBarge, Inc. Employee Savings Plan as of December 31, 2009, and 2008, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the LaBarge, Inc. Employee Savings Plan as of December 31, 2009, and 2008, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken
as a whole.

LaBARGE, INC. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
(1) Description of the Plan
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
(a) General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by the Company covering substantially all employees immediately and is subject to the provisions of ERISA.
(b) Contributions
Employees may elect to contribute, on a pre-tax basis, the lesser of 60% of covered compensation, or $16,500 or $15,500, whichever is less, in 2009 and 2008, respectively, in various investment funds of the Plan. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch‑up contributions. Effective May 1, 2009 the Plan temporarily suspended contributions of the company match portion of the Plan. The LaBarge company match will be reinstated beginning with the July 9, 2010 payroll. Prior to the suspension the Company contributed an amount equal to 50% of the first $25 per month of employee contributions plus 25% of the employee contribution in excess of $25. The Company provided matching contributions on amounts contributed up to 8% of the participant’s compensation. The Company matching contributions are invested in LaBarge, Inc. common stock and are restricted from being transferred to other Plan funds until employee completes three years of service. Contributions received prior to January 1, 2007 may be sold based on the following three-year phase-in period. The time period of restriction on shares received prior to January 1, 2007 was completed on December 31, 2008.
|
Year 1 |
|
33% |
|
|
Year 2 |
66 |
||
|
Year 3 |
|
100 |
The phase-in period does not apply to participants who have attained the age of 55 and completed 3 years of service before the 2006 year. Those participants will be permitted to sell 100% of their investment in LaBarge, Inc. common stock as of January 1, 2007.
Each year the Company may also, at its option, contribute an additional discretionary amount as determined by the Company’s board of directors as a profit-sharing contribution. There were no discretionary profit-sharing contributions for 2009 or 2008.
(c) Participants’ Accounts
Each participant account is credited with the participant’s contribution, the Company’s matching contribution, and an allocation of the Company’s discretionary profit-sharing contribution and fund earnings, net of administrative expenses. Allocations are based upon covered compensation or account balances, as defined in the Plan agreement.
Participants may transfer amounts between any funds other than the LaBarge, Inc. Common Stock Fund during any business day of the year. A transfer must equal a minimum of $250 or 100% of the participant’s fund account balance for balances less than $250. The Trustee records these transfers in the participant’s account and reinvests the amounts to reflect these changes. At year-end, the investments are presented net of any transfers in process as directed by the participants.
A participant’s interest in transfers and trading activity in the LaBarge Common Stock Fund is measured in actual shares of LaBarge, Inc. Common Stock Fund that are allocated to the participant’s account.
(d) Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus any earnings thereon. Participants are fully vested with respect to a month for employer matching contributions if that participant is employed by the Company on the last day of such month. Upon a participant’s attainment of his/her normal retirement date (65th birthday), or upon death or total disability, his/her entire account balance as of the most recent valuation date will become 100% vested. In the event a participant terminates employment, vesting in the Company’s profit-sharing contribution allocated to the participant’s account is 100% after five full years of continuous service.
(e) Loans to Participants
Participants are allowed to borrow a portion of their account balance. The minimum loan is $1,000 and the maximum amount is the lesser of one-half of the participant’s vested account balance or $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance in the participant’s account during the prior twelve-month period. All loans to participants from plans maintained by the Company will be considered for purposes of determining the maximum amount of the participant’s loan. Up to 50% of the participant’s vested account balance may be used as collateral for any loan.
(f) Payment of Benefits
Upon termination or retirement of service, a participant’s account is distributed in the form of a lump-sum payment or installment payments over a period of time. Distributions may be deferred until age 70-1/2 at the participant’s election if the account balance is not less than $1,000.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, except benefit payments, which are recorded when paid.

The Fidelity Funds (excluding the Fidelity Retirement Money Market Fund), RS Partners Fund Class A, PIMCO, Oppenheimer, Oakmark, Spartan, Davis NY, Alliance/Bernstein, and the Ariel Appreciation Funds (all invest in registered investment company shares), and the LaBarge, Inc. Common Stock Fund are stated at fair market value, as determined by quoted market price. The fair market value of the Company’s common stock is determined based on the quoted market value of the stock on the last day of trading for the period. The Fidelity Retirement Money Market Fund is valued at cost plus interest, which approximates fair value. The appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments of the Plan represents the change in the difference between market value and cost of the investments during the year and realized gains or losses on the sale of investments. Loans to participants are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximates fair value.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis.
(c) Trust Fund Managed by the Trustee
Under the terms of a trust agreement, the Trustee manages a trust fund on behalf of the Plan. The investments and changes therein of this trust fund have been reported to the Plan by the Trustee.
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(e) Administrative Charges
The Plan gives the Company the option of paying all administrative expenses or charging them to the Plan. All expenses incidental to the operation and management of the Plan have been paid by the Plan except for annual testing fees which are paid by the Company.
(3) Tax Status
The Plan Administrator has received a favorable determination letter dated March 15, 2005 from the Internal Revenue Service which indicates that the Plan and its underlying trust qualify under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and, therefore, are exempt from Federal income taxes. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, the Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
(4) Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed an intent to do so, the Company has the right under the provisions of the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become fully vested.
8
(5) Related-Party Transactions
Certain Plan investments are in funds managed by Fidelity Management Trust company. Fidelity Management Trust Company is the trustee, as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Fees paid by the Plan for investment administration services amounted to $54,387 and $50,779 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, Plan investments include shares of LaBarge, Inc. common stock. LaBarge, Inc. is the plan sponsor, as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these transactions qualify as party in interest transactions. These party-in-interest transactions are allowable under ERISA regulations. On various dates during 2009 and 2008, the Plan purchased 34,101 and 45,283 shares of the Company’s common stock at fair market value at prices ranging from $5.12 to $13.00 and $9.60 to $15.70, respectively per share for investment in the Plan’s LaBarge Common Stock Fund.
The market value of the investment in the LaBarge Inc. Common Stock Fund was valued at $12.05 and $14.35 per share at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

(9) Fair Value Measurement
Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (formerly Statement No. 157, (“SFAS No. 157”),
“Fair Value Measurements”), establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest
priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described
below:
Level 1: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access. |
||
Level 2: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology include: |
||
|
|
||
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; |
|||
● |
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; |
||
● |
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; |
||
● |
Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
11
|
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
||
Level 3: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
||
The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. |
|||
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value: |
|||
Common Stock: Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. |
|||
Mutual Funds and Money Market Accounts: Valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) of shares held by the plan at year end. |
|||
Loans to Participants – Loans to participants are not actively traded and significant other observable inputs are not available. The fair value of loans to participants is equal to the amortized cost of the loans, which approximates fair value. |
12

(10) Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
(11) Subsequent Events
Effective January 5, 2010, $4,174,526 was transferred to the LaBarge, Inc. Employee Savings Plan from the Pensar Electronic Solutions, LLC 401(k) Plan. The transfer is related to the acquisition of Pensar Inc. by LaBarge, Inc. in 2008 and the merging of their savings plan into the LaBarge, Inc. Employee Savings Plan.
