Notes 1) Organic growth (decline) % adjusted for revenues from acquired businesses and storm restoration services, when applicable. 2) Formerly known as CenturyLink, Inc. 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 October 24, 2020 and July 25, 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 Q3 2020, Q4 2020 and Q1 2021 consisted of the following: $ Millions Q3 2020 Q4 2020 Q1 2021 Debt Summary 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes, mature Sept 2021: $ 485.0 $ 460.0 $ 293.0 Senior Credit Facility, matures Oct 2023:4 Term Loan Facilities 450.0 444.4 438.8 Revolving Facility 103.0 - 675.0 Total Notional Amount of Debt $ 1,038.0 $ 904.4 $ 1,406.7 Less: Cash and Equivalents 11.8 54.6 643.9 Notional Net Debt $ 1,026.2 $ 849.8 $ 762.9 12
