On August 24, 2011, Dycom Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) held a webcast and conference call to review its fiscal 2011 fourth quarter results. A copy of the transcript is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the slide presentation referred to on the webcast and conference call has been furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to the Company's Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 24, 2011.
The transcript contains the financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are Non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense and unusual items. The Company believes these Non-GAAP financial measures provide 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 impact on the Company’s results of operations in any particular period. Additionally, the Company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its past performance and prospects for future performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and do 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.
The information in the preceding paragraph, as well as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. It may only be incorporated by reference into another filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) if such subsequent filing specifically references this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements as contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Such statements include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expectations for revenues, margins, earnings and backlog. These statements are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results in the future to differ materially from the results projected or implied in any forward-looking statements contained in this press release. Such risks and uncertainties include: business and economic conditions in the telecommunications industry affecting our customers, the adequacy of our insurance and other reserves and allowances for doubtful accounts, whether the carrying value of our assets may be impaired, the impact of any future acquisitions, the anticipated outcome of other contingent events, including litigation, liquidity needs and the availability of financing, as well as other risks detailed in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These filings are available on a web site maintained by the Securities and Exchange Commission at http://www.sec.gov. The Company does not undertake to update forward looking statements except as required by law.
