8Strong Tailwinds For Fiber Deployments Source: Wells Fargo Equity Research Estimates Demand on the network has only been increasing …many of our customers are actually being quite public about their plans. We believe we’re in the early innings of a large capital deployment cycle across 5G, fiber-to-the-home and hyperscale data centers. - Wendell P. Weeks, CEO Corning Incorporated – July 2021 “ ” Collective strategic clarity around US telco fiber build plans Increasing consumer demand for bandwidth continues to drive fiber deployments Fiber passings with telcos are poised to materially accelerate, with an estimated +40 million premises to be connected to fiber through 2025; nearly doubling current passings By 2025, its estimated that almost 60% of US homes and businesses will have a direct fiber connection, vs. approximately 32% at the end of 2020


 
9Customers Committed to Multi-Year Capital Spending, Fiber Deployments We intend to double down on our fiber expansion. We expect to more than double our current fiber footprint by the end of 2025, reaching 30 million customer locations with the single goal of offering the best fixed broadband service in the market. We don't intend to stop there. ” - John Stankey, CEO AT&T, Inc. – May 2021 - Nicholas Simon Jeffery, CEO Frontier Communications – August 2021 Key customers committed to passing millions of new locations with fiber Our future is fiber and we will continue to be the largest pure-play fiber provider in the US. Today, I'm excited to announce that we'll be accelerating our fiber build plan to have over 10 million fiber locations passed by the end of 2025. “ The jury isn't out on this one. When we invest in consumer fiber, we take share and we drive profitable growth. As I mentioned, upon closing the Apollo transaction, approximately 70% of our remaining mass market footprint will be the sort of urban and suburban markets that are best addressable with Quantum Fiber solutions. We are developing an accelerated build plan and we'll share those details as they're finalized. What we can tell you today is that while we remain strategic and disciplined in our approach, we expect to build faster and with more scale in the markets that we prioritize for Quantum Fiber investment. - Jeffrey Storey, CEO Lumen Technologies – August 2021 ” ” “ “ On the enterprise side, we're lower penetrated, and our value-added opportunity is due to our significant amount of deployed fiber throughout our footprint to be able to drive connectivity services as well as software-defined network overlay products, including SD-WAN, unified communications. And so our opportunity there is not only to provide more fiber connectivity, but to establish ourselves in the marketplace for these additional services and increase the stickiness of our fiber connectivity with additional product. And we're early on in that. “ ” - Christopher Winfrey, CFO Charter Communications – July 2021 Kinetic by Windstream is building the broadband network of the future. We are investing billions to bring fiber internet service to millions of houses across our 18-state footprint. Gigabit speeds are becoming increasingly important in an era when many are working remotely or accessing education or healthcare online. Kinetic is investing in its broadband network to meet the growing technology needs of its customers. “ - Jeff Small, President Kinetic by Windstream – May 2021 We intend to bring fiber to a lot more of our communities. Currently, just over 30% of the businesses and homes we pass can connect to our fiber today. Our goal is to add a lot more fiber in the coming months and years so that nearly 85% of homes and businesses can get the internet they deserve. - Harold Zeitz, CEO Ziply Fiber – May 2020 “ ” ”


 
105G Deployment We acquired 80 megahertz of C-Band spectrum in the FCC spectrum auction number 107. We plan to begin deploying the first 40 megahertz of that spectrum, began turning this up in select areas by the end of 2021 and we expect to spend about $6 billion to $8 billion in CapEx deploying C-Band specific spectrum here with the vast majority of that shaking up between 22% and 24% and we now expect to cover 200 million pops with mid-band spectrum by the end of 2023. And as 5G use cases evolve to leverage lower latency, they have higher speed requirements, our networks going to be there to deliver that experience. “ - Thaddeus Arroyo, CEO AT&T Consumer – June 2021 Source: Cowen and Company Wireless carriers are increasing 4G capacity and augmenting 4G with new 5G technologies creating growth opportunities in the near to intermediate term Hundreds of thousands of small cells will need to be deployed in the next few years to meet growing demands Emerging wireless technologies driving significant wireline deployments Wireline deployments are the foundational element of what is expected to be a decades long deployment of fully converged wireless/wireline networks that will enable high bandwidth, low latency 5G applications ” Wireless construction activity in support of newly available spectrum beginning and expected to increase next year

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.

Notes 23 1) 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 Four Quarters Ended January 27, 2018 represent the aggregate of Q3 2017, Q4 2017, Q1 2018, and Q2 2018 for comparative purposes to other twelve month periods presented. 2) 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. 3) 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. 4) As of Q1 2022 and Q2 2022, the Company had $46.3 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, 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.

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 change percentage is calculated as the change in Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues from the comparable prior year period divided by the comparable prior year period Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues. Management believes Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s revenue performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - net income (loss) 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 (Loss) - GAAP net income (loss) 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 (Loss) is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Common Share and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares- Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares outstanding. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares used in the computation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Common share is adjusted for common stock equivalents related to share-based awards in periods where their effect would be anti-dilutive. Additionally, 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 “2021 Convertible Notes”) up to an average quarterly share price of $130.43. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares excludes dilution from the 2021 Convertible 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 2021 Convertible 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 (Loss) and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Common Share:
Non-cash amortization of debt discount on 2021 Convertible Notes - The Company’s 2021 Convertible Notes were allocated between debt and equity components. The difference between the principal amount and the carrying amount of the liability component of the 2021 Convertible Notes represents a debt discount. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the 2021 Convertible 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 2021 Convertible 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.

Loss (gain) on debt extinguishment - During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million in connection with the amendment and restatement of its credit agreement maturing in April 2026. During fiscal 2021, the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $12.0 million in connection with its purchase of $401.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2021 Convertible Notes for $371.4 million, including interest and fees and, during 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 2021 Convertible Notes for $24.3 million, including interest and fees. Management believes excluding the loss (gain) 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.

Charge for (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 The Company has a 52/53 week fiscal year. Quarter periods presented contain 13 weeks and four-quarter periods presented contain 52 weeks, except for those periods ended January 30, 2021 and July 30, 2016, which contain 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.
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 four-quarters ended January 27, 2018 represent the aggregate of Q3 2017, Q4 2017, Q1 2018 and Q2 2018, and amounts provided for the four-quarters ended January 28, 2017 represent the aggregate of Q3 2016, Q4 2016, Q1 2017, and Q2 2017, for comparative purposes to other four-quarter periods presented.
3 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.
4 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 “2021 Convertible Notes”) for $24.3 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the 2021 Convertible Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the 2021 Convertible 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 2021 Convertible Notes.
5 During the quarter ended April 25, 2020, the Company purchased $167.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2021 Convertible Notes for $147.0 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the 2021 Convertible Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the 2021 Convertible 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 2021 Convertible Notes.
During the quarter ended July 25, 2020, the Company purchased $234.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 2021 Convertible Notes for $224.4 million, including interest and fees. The purchase price was allocated between the debt and equity components of the 2021 Convertible Notes. Based on the net carrying amount of the 2021 Convertible 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 2021 Convertible Notes.
6 During the quarter ended May 1, 2021 the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million in connection with the amendment and restatement of its credit agreement maturing in April 2026.
7 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.
8 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.
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 Amounts represent the non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Company’s 2021 Convertible Notes.
12 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. For 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.
13 For the quarter ended April 25, 2020 shares used in the calculation of GAAP loss per common share, exclude common stock equivalents related to share-based awards as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Shares used in the calculation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share include the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents related to share-based awards.
For the quarter ended May 1, 2021, shares used in the calculation of GAAP diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents related to share-based awards. For the calculation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Loss per Common Share, common stock equivalents related to share-based awards are excluded as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
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 2021 Convertible Notes up to an average quarterly share price of $130.43. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares excludes the GAAP dilutive share effect

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.
