It delivers 1 gigabyte speeds, has low latency, is symmetrical for downlink and uplink demand, and is easily upgradeable to multi-gig with minimal investment as demand growth continues. - Jeff McElfresh, Chief Executive Officer-AT&T Communications AT&T – March 2021 Source: JP Morgan Estimates (I n m ill io n s) “ ” Going forward, our story is based on two primary components. Our base fiber network and our expansion fiber network. Simply put, the base fiber network is fiber that's in the ground today, already generating solid cash flow. The expansion fiber network is the unique and significant opportunity that we have to convert our cash of millions of copper locations into fiber, replicating a proven and successful model to unlock massive value. - John Stratton, Executive Chairman -Frontier – April 2021 “ ”


 
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, CEOAT&T, Inc. – May 2021 We are moving quickly to expand our fiber footprint, and our results show you why that is crucial. We added 235,000 AT&T Fiber customers in the quarter. IP Broadband ARPU grew 3.2% year over year. Our Fiber penetration rate is more than 35% and growing, and total Broadband net adds also increased.“ ”- Pascal Desroches, CFO AT&T, Inc. – April 2021 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021E 2022E 2023E 2024E 2025E Annual 2.8 3.8 2.9 0.5 2.5 3.8 3.8 3.8 2.9 Cumulative 3.6 6.4 10.2 13.1 13.6 16.1 19.9 23.8 27.6 30.5 0.0 5.0 10.0 15.0 20.0 25.0 30.0 35.0 - 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 C u m u la ti ve H o m e s P a ss e d ( in m il li o n s) A n n u a l H o m e s P a ss e d ( in m il li o n s) AT&T FIBER PASSINGS Source: JP Morgan Estimates Industry participants have stated their believe that a single high-capacity fiber network can most cost effectively deliver services to both consumers and businesses, enabling multiple revenue streams from a single investment. This view is increasing the appetite for fiber deployments and we believe that the industry effort to deploy high-capacity fiber networks continues to meaningfully broaden our set of opportunities.


 
105G Deployment If you think about the capital cost associated with building Small Cell networks, about 80%, 85% of the total cost of building those networks is in the Fiber itself…based on the type of infrastructure that has to be deployed in order to achieve a Small Cell solution for the carriers, the majority of the – think about the revenue and the underlying cost associated with that – is going to be in the Fiber asset, the Fiber asset itself. “ ” - Jay Brown, CEO Crown Castle International Corp. – April 2020 Growth in Number of Small/Macro Cells Source: Cowen and Company 2019 2020 2021 2022E 2023E 2024E 2025E U.S. Small Cell Sites 143 178 224 277 336 398 461 U.S. Macro Sites 269 274 278 285 291 296 302 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 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 (i n t h o u sa n d s)

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.

Notes 23 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) 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) As of May 1, 2021 and January 30, 2021, the Company had $46.3 million and $52.2 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, respectively. 4) 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. 5) Notional net debt as of Q1 2021, Q2 2021, and Q3 2021 consisted of the following: 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. 7) 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.
