Forward-Looking Statements and
Non-GAAP Information
Forward-Looking Statements and
Non-GAAP Information
 Fiscal 2012 fourth quarter results are unaudited. This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” which
 are statements relating to future events, future financial performance, strategies, expectations, and competitive
 environment. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, contained in this presentation, including
 statements regarding our future financial position, future revenue, prospects, plans and objectives of
 management, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,”
 “intend,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “project,” “looking ahead” and similar expressions, as well as
 statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. You should not read forward looking statements
 as a guarantee of future performance or results. They will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether or
 at what time such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on
 information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief at that time
 with respect to future events. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
 performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking
 statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to factors described
 under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 30, 2011,
 and other risks outlined in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
 (“SEC”). The forward-looking statements in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this
 cautionary statement. Except as required by law, the Company may not update forward-looking statements
 even though its situation may change in the future.
 This presentation includes certain “Non-GAAP” financial measures as defined by SEC rules. We believe that the
 presentation of certain Non-GAAP financial measures provides information that is useful to investors because it
 allows for a more direct comparison of our performance for the period with our performance in the comparable
 prior-year periods. As required by the SEC, we have provided a reconciliation of those measures to the most
 directly comparable GAAP measures on the Regulation G slides included as slides 11 through 14 of this
 presentation. We caution that Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a
 substitute for, our reported GAAP results.

Appendix: Regulation G Disclosure
  The above table presents the Non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA for the three and twelve months ended July 28, 2012 and July 30,
 2011 and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP financial measure
 within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings
 before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment,
 charges for a wage and hour class action settlement, and acquisition-related costs.  The Company believes this Non-GAAP financial measure
 provides information that is useful to the Company’s investors. The Company believes that this information is helpful in understanding period-over-
 period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Company’s
 results of operations in any particular period. Additionally, the Company uses this Non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate its past performance and
 prospects for future performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net income,
 operating cash flows, or a measure of earnings. Because all companies do not use identical calculations, this presentation of Non-GAAP financial
 measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

(a) Year-over-year growth (decline) percentage is calculated as follows: (i) revenues in the quarterly period less (ii) revenues in the comparative prior year quarter
period; divided by (ii) revenues in the comparative prior year quarter period.
(b) Q4-12 organic growth excludes storm restoration revenues of $2.3 million in Q4-12 and $14.1 million in Q4-11.
(c) For Q3-12, GAAP and Non-GAAP revenue growth percentages are the same as revenues from business acquired in 2011 were included for the full quarter in each
period and there were no other Non-GAAP adjustments in either period. For Q1-11, GAAP and Non-GAAP revenue growth percentages are the same as there were no
Non-GAAP adjustments in either period.
(d) Non-GAAP adjustments in Q2-12, Q3-11 and Q2-11 reflect revenues from businesses acquired during Q2-11. Non-GAAP adjustments in Q1-12 reflect storm
restoration revenues ($3.7 million) and revenues from businesses acquired during Q2-11 ($14.5 million). Non-GAAP adjustments in Q4-11 for fiscal 2011 fourth
quarter year-over-year organic growth reflects storm restoration revenues ($14.1 million) and revenues from businesses acquired during Q2-11 ($14.1 million). Non-
GAAP adjustments in Q4-10 result from the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal year. The Q4-10 Non-GAAP adjustments reflect the impact of the additional week in Q4-10
and are calculated by dividing contract revenues by 14 weeks. The result, representing one week of contract revenues, is subtracted from the GAAP-contract revenues
to calculate 13 weeks of revenue for Q4-10 on a Non-GAAP basis for comparison purposes. Non-GAAP adjustments in Q3-09, Q2-09, and Q1-09 reflect storm
restoration revenues recognized during those periods.
 
Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Appendix: Regulation G Disclosure
The items reconciling "GAAP" to “Non-GAAP” financial measures are specifically described below:
 
(a) Charge for a wage and hour class action litigation settlement.
(b) Acquisition related costs.
(c) Loss on debt extinguishment associated with the tender offer and redemption of $135.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 8.125% senior
subordinated notes due 2015.
(d) Provision for income taxes includes the tax effect of the other reconciling items identified herein.
(e) The provision for income taxes, divided by income before income taxes, represents the effective tax rate. On a GAAP basis, this rate was 39.0% and 43.5% for the twelve
months ended  July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, respectively. On a Non-GAAP basis, this rate was 41.8% for the twelve months ended  July 30, 2011.
