7 Key Driver: High Bandwidth Deployments Verizon AT&T When it comes to our 5G and investing our business, we have a big year in front of us in 2021. Again, we're going to almost double the amount of 5G Ultra Wideband sites. We're going to have 14,000 new sites coming in during 2021. That will enable us to continue to increase with plus 20 cities when it comes to 5G Ultra Wideband and we're also going to add some plus 25 home cities. At the same time, focusing very much on the 5G mobile edge compute with 10 more sites when it comes to the public side. “ ” - Hans Vestberg, CEOVerizon Communications, Inc. – January 2021 Companies deploying fiber-to-the-home, fiber-to-the-node, and fiber-to-the-building technologies to enable 1 gigabit connections Data transmission speeds dramatically increasing 0 1,000 2,000 3,000 4,000 5,000 6,000 Q1-19 Q2-19 Q3-19 Q4-19 Q1-20 Q2-20 Q3-20 Q4-20 F ib e r B ro a d b a n d S u b s c ri b e rs ( 0 0 0 s ) 5 12 3231 61 86 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 2019 2020 2021 M a rk e ts C o n n e c te d 5G Home 5G Mobile The significance of fiber broadband continues to expand not just as a superior fixed access technology but also is the foundational layer for empowering 5G connections and business connectivity.

21 Questions and Answers


 
Outlook 22 For Q1 2022, as compared sequentially to Q4 2021, the Company expects contract revenues to range from in-line to modestly lower and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of contract revenues to range from in-line to modestly higher The Company believes that, in addition to other factors, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its operating results, cash flows and financial condition is uncertain, unpredictable and could affect its ability to achieve these expected financial results This slide was used on March 3, 2021 in connection with the Company’s conference call for its fiscal 2021 fourth quarter results. This information is provided for your reference only and should not be interpreted as a reiteration of these projections by the Company at any time after the date originally provided. Reference is made to slide 2 titled “Important Information” with respect to these slides. The information and statements contained in this slide that are forward-looking are based on information that was available at the time the slide was initially prepared and/or management’s good faith belief at that time with respect to future events. Except as required by law, the Company may not update forward-looking statements even though its situation may change in the future. For a full copy of the conference call materials, including the conference call transcript, see the Company’s Form 8-Ks filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2021 and March 4, 2021.


 
Notes 1) Organic growth (decline) % adjusted for revenues from acquired businesses, storm restoration services, and for the additional week of operations during the fourth quarter as a result of the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal year, when applicable. 2) Due to the change in the Company’s fiscal year end, the Company’s fiscal 2018 six month transition period consisted of Q1 2018 and Q2 2018. For comparative purposes all amounts provided are for 4 Quarters Ended January. 3) The Company’s backlog represents an estimate of services to be performed pursuant to master service agreements and other contractual agreements over the terms of those contracts. These estimates are based on contract terms and evaluations regarding the timing of the services to be provided. In the case of master service agreements, backlog is estimated based on the work performed in the preceding 12 month period, when available. When estimating backlog for newly initiated master service agreements and other long and short-term contracts, the Company also considers the anticipated scope of the contract and information received from the customer during the procurement process. A significant majority of the Company’s backlog comprises services under master service agreements and other long-term contracts. Backlog is not a measure defined by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, GAAP results. Participants in the Company’s industry often disclose a calculation of their backlog; however, the Company’s methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by others. Dycom utilizes the calculation of backlog to assist in measuring aggregate awards under existing contractual relationships with its customers. The Company believes its backlog disclosures will assist investors in better understanding this estimate of the services to be performed pursuant to awards by its customers under existing contractual relationships. 4) As of both January 30, 2021 and October 24, 2020 , the Company had $52.2 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility. 5) Liquidity represents the sum of the Company’s availability on its revolving facility as defined by the Company’s Senior Credit Facility and available cash and equivalents. 6) DSO is calculated as the summation of current and non-current accounts receivable (including unbilled receivables), net of allowance for doubtful accounts, plus current contract assets, less contract liabilities (formerly referred to as billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings) divided by average revenue per day during the respective quarter. Long-term contract assets are excluded from the calculation of DSO, as these amounts represent payments made to customers pursuant to long-term agreements and are recognized as a reduction of contract revenues over the period for which the related services are provided to the customers. 7) Notional net debt as of Q4 2020, Q1 2021, and Q2 2021 consisted of the following: 23 Debt Summary Q4 2020 Q1 2021 Q2 2021 $ Millions 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes, mature Sept 2021: $ 460.0 $ 293.0 $ 58.3 Senior Credit Facility, matures Oct 2023: 4 Term Loan Facility 444.4 438.8 433.1 Revolving Facility - 675.0 200.0 Total Notional Amount of Debt $ 904.4 $ 1,406.7 $ 691.4 Less: Cash and Equivalents 54.6 643.9 22.5 Notional Net Debt $ 849.8 $ 762.9 $ 668.9

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In the Company’s quarterly results releases, trend schedules, conference calls, slide presentations, and webcasts, it may use or discuss Non-GAAP financial measures, as defined by Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes that the presentation of certain Non-GAAP financial measures in these materials provides information that is useful to investors because it allows for a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance for the period reported with the Company’s performance in prior periods. The Company cautions that Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results. Management defines the Non-GAAP financial measures used as follows:

Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues - contract revenues from businesses that are included for the entire period in both the current and prior year periods, excluding contract revenues from storm restoration services, adjusted for the additional week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, as a result of the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal year. Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenue (decline) growth is calculated as the percentage change in Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues over those of the comparable prior year periods. Management believes organic (decline) growth is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s revenue performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - net (loss) income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, and certain non-recurring items. Management believes Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies with different capital structures or tax rates.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income - GAAP net income before the non-cash amortization of the debt discount and the related tax impact, certain tax impacts resulting from vesting and exercise of share-based awards, and certain non-recurring items. Management believes Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share - Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. The Company has a hedge in effect to offset the economic dilution of additional shares that would be issued in connection with the conversion of the Company’s 0.75% convertible senior notes due September 2021 (the “Notes”) up to an average quarterly share price of $130.43. Diluted shares used in the calculation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share excludes dilution from the Notes. Management believes that the calculation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted shares to reflect the hedge will be useful to investors because it provides insight into the offsetting economic effect of the hedge against potential conversion of the Notes.

Notional Net Debt - Notional net debt is a Non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by subtracting cash and equivalents from the aggregate face amount of outstanding long-term debt. Management believes notional net debt is a helpful measure to assess the Company’s liquidity.

Management excludes or adjusts each of the items identified below from Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share:
Non-cash amortization of debt discount on Notes - The Company’s Notes were allocated between debt and equity components. The difference between the principal amount and the carrying amount of the liability component of the Notes represents a debt discount. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the Notes but does not result in periodic cash interest payments. The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of the debt discount from its Non-GAAP financial measures because it believes it is useful to analyze the component of interest expense for the Notes that will be paid in cash. The exclusion of the non-cash amortization from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures provides management with a consistent measure for assessing financial results.

Charges for a wage and hour litigation settlement - During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company incurred a $2.3 million pre-tax charge for a wage and hour litigation settlement. The Company excludes the impact of this charge from its Non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes it is not indicative of its underlying results in the current period.
Goodwill impairment charge - During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company incurred a goodwill impairment charge of $53.3 million for a reporting unit that performs installation services inside third party premises. Management believes excluding the goodwill impairment charge from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures assists investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and provides management with a consistent measure for assessing the current and historical financial results.

Gain (loss) on debt extinguishment - During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company incurred a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.5 million in connection with its purchase of $234.7 million aggregate principal amount of Notes for $224.4 million, including interest and fees. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $12.5 million in connection with its purchase of $167.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes for $147.0 million, including interest and fees, and, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million in connection with the purchase of $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes for $24.3 million, including interest and fees. Management believes excluding the gain (loss) on debt extinguishment from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures assists investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and provides management with a consistent measure for assessing the current and historical financial results.

Charge for warranty costs - During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded an $8.2 million pre-tax charge for estimated warranty costs for work performed for a customer in prior periods. The Company excludes the impact of this charge from its Non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes it is not indicative of its underlying results in the current period.

Recovery of previously reserved accounts receivable and contract assets - During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company recognized a pre-tax non-cash charge for accounts receivable and contract assets of $17.2 million related to balances owed from a customer. On February 25, 2019, this customer filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recognized $10.3 million of pre-tax income from the recovery of previously reserved accounts receivable and contract assets based on collections from a customer. The Company excludes the impact of this recovery from its Non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes it is not indicative of its underlying results.

Impact on stock-based compensation expense from non-cash charge for accounts receivable and contract assets - The Company excludes the impact on stock-based compensation expense from the non-cash charge for accounts receivable and contract assets from its Non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes it is not indicative of its underlying results or ongoing operations.

Tax effect from a net operating loss carryback under enacted CARES Act - During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $2.6 million from a net operating loss carryback under the enacted U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The Company excludes this impact because the Company believes it is not indicative of the Company’s underlying results or ongoing operations.

Tax impact of previous tax year filing - During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $1.1 million on a previous tax year filing. The Company has excluded this impact because the Company believes it is not indicative of the Company’s underlying results or ongoing operations.

Tax impact from Tax Reform - During the quarter ended January 27, 2018, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $32.2 million resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Reform”), primarily due to a reduction of net deferred tax liabilities. The Company has excluded this impact because it is a significant change in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate and because the Company believes it is not indicative of the Company’s underlying results or ongoing operations.

Tax impact of the vesting and exercise of share-based awards - The Company excludes certain tax impacts resulting from the vesting and exercise of share-based awards as these amounts may vary significantly from period to period. Excluding these amounts from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures provides management with a more consistent measure for assessing financial results.

Tax impact of pre-tax adjustments - The tax impact of pre-tax adjustments reflects the Company’s estimated tax impact of specific adjustments and the effective tax rate used for financial planning for the applicable period.

Notes to Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Financial Measures
1 Amounts represent contract revenues from acquired businesses that were not owned for the full period in both the current and comparable prior periods, including any contract revenues from storm restoration services for these acquired businesses.
2 Due to the change in the Company’s fiscal year end, the Company’s fiscal 2018 six month transition period consisted of Q1 2018 and Q2 2018. Amounts provided for the 4 Quarters Ended January 27, 2018 represent the aggregate of Q3 2017, Q4 2017, Q1 2018 and Q2 2018, and amounts provided for the 4 Quarters Ended January 28, 2017 represent the aggregate of Q3 2016, Q4 2016, Q1 2017, and Q2 2017, for comparative purposes to other twelve month periods presented.
3 The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. All four-quarter periods presented contain 52 weeks except for those that include the quarters ended January 30, 2021 and July 30, 2016, which contained an additional week of operations.
The Non-GAAP adjustment for the additional week of operations for the quarter ended January 30, 2021 is calculated as (i) contract revenues less (ii) contract revenues from storm restoration services (iii) divided by 14 weeks.
The Non-GAAP adjustment for the additional week of operations is calculated independently for each four-quarter period presented that includes the quarter ended July 30, 2016. The impact of the additional week of operations for the quarter ended July 30, 2016 is calculated as (i) contract revenues less (ii) contract revenues from acquired businesses in each comparative period (iii) divided by 14 weeks.
4 Top 5 Customers included Comcast, AT&T, Verizon, Lumen (formerly known as CenturyLink, Inc.), and Windstream for the quarters ended January 30, 2021 and January 25, 2020.
5 During the quarter ended January 30, 2021 the Company incurred a $2.3 million pre-tax charge for a wage and hour litigation settlement. Of the $2.3 million pre-tax charge $2.1 million and $0.2 million were included in costs of earned revenues and general and administrative expenses, respectively.
6 The Company incurred a goodwill impairment charge of $53.3 million during the quarter ended April 25, 2020 for a reporting unit that performs installation services inside third party premises.
7 During the quarter ended January 25, 2020, the Company purchased $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.75% convertible senior notes due September 2021 (the “Notes”) for $24.3 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the Notes, the Company recognized a net loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million after the write-off of associated debt issuance costs. The Company also recognized the equity component of the settlement of the Notes.
8 During the quarter ended April 25, 2020, the Company purchased $167.0 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes for $147.0 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the Notes, the Company recognized a net gain on debt extinguishment of $12.5 million after the write-off of associated debt issuance costs. The Company also recognized the equity component of the settlement of the Notes.
During the quarter ended July 25, 2020, the Company purchased $234.7 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes for $224.4 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the Notes, the Company recognized a net loss on debt extinguishment of $0.5 million after the write-off of associated debt issuance costs. The Company also recognized the equity component of the settlement of the Notes.
9 During the quarter ended April 27, 2019, the Company recorded an $8.2 million pre-tax charge for estimated warranty costs for work performed for a customer in prior periods.
10 During the quarter ended January 26, 2019, the Company recognized a pre-tax non-cash charge for accounts receivable and contract assets of $17.2 million related to balances owed from a customer. On February 25, 2019, this customer filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. Partially offsetting this charge, the Company’s stock-based compensation expense was reduced by approximately $1.9 million for the quarter ended January 26, 2019 as a result of the pre-tax non-cash charge for accounts receivable and contract assets. Excluding this reduction, Non-GAAP Stock-Based Compensation Expense was $3.8 million for the quarter ended January 26, 2019. During the quarter ended April 27, 2019, the Company recognized $10.3 million of pre-tax income from the recovery of these previously reserved accounts receivable and contract assets based on collections from the customer.
11 During the quarter ended July 27, 2019, the Company entered into a contract modification that increased revenue produced by a large customer program. As a result, the Company recognized $11.8 million of contract revenues for services performed in prior periods, $0.8 million of related performance-based compensation expense, and $1.0 million of stock-based compensation. On an after-tax basis, these items contributed approximately $7.3 million to net income, or $0.23 per common share diluted, for the quarter ended July 27,2019. These amounts are excluded from the calculations of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share for the quarter ended July 27, 2019.
12 Amounts represent the non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Company’s Notes.
13 Amounts represent the tax related impact of all pre-tax adjustments as well as the tax effects of the vesting and exercise of share-based awards. During the quarter ended April 25, 2020, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $2.6 million from a net operating loss carryback under the enacted CARES Act and, for the quarter ended July 27, 2019, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $1.1 million on a previous tax year filing. Additionally, during the quarter ended January 27, 2018, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $32.2 million resulting from Tax Reform, primarily due to the re-measurement of the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities at a lower U.S. federal corporate income tax rate.
14 The Company has a hedge in effect to offset the economic dilution of additional shares that would be issued in connection with the conversion of the Notes up to an average quarterly share price of $130.43. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares excludes the GAAP dilutive share effect of the Notes. See the Company’s Form 8-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2015 for further information regarding the Notes and note hedge.

15 Other financing activities represents net cash provided by (used in) financing activities less repurchases of common stock.
16 Other investing activities represents net cash provided by (used in) investing activities less capital expenditure, net of proceeds from asset sales and less cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired.
17 The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash ("ASU 2016-18"), effective January 28, 2018. ASU 2016-18 requires that restricted cash be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. Prior to the adoption of this guidance, changes in restricted cash were presented within cash flows in other investing activities.
