Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On August 23, 2016, Dycom Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting fiscal 2016 fourth quarter and annual results. The Company also provided forward guidance. Additionally, on August 24, 2016, the Company made available related materials to be discussed during the Company’s webcast and conference call referred to in such press release. A copy of the press release and related conference call materials are furnished as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

The press release and related materials contain the financial measures of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share, and certain amounts relating to organic contract revenue, which are Non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, and certain non-recurring items, is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and does not purport to be an alternative to net income, operating cash flows, or a measure of earnings. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to GAAP net income. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to GAAP diluted earnings per common share. Organic contract revenue is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to GAAP contract revenue. Because all companies do not use identical calculations, the presentation of these Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company believes these Non-GAAP financial measures provide 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 information in the preceding paragraphs, as well as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, 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.

Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, August 23, 2016 - Dycom Industries, Inc. (NYSE: DY) announced today its results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended July 30, 2016. The Company reported:

Contract revenues of $789.2 million for the quarter ended July 30, 2016, compared to $578.5 million for the quarter ended July 25, 2015. Contract revenues for the quarter ended July 30, 2016 grew 20.0% on an organic basis after excluding contract revenues from acquired businesses that were not owned for the entire period in both the current and prior year quarter and adjusting for the additional week of operations during the quarter ended July 30, 2016 as a result of the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal year. Total contract revenues from acquired businesses were $44.8 million for the quarter ended July 30, 2016, compared to $2.4 million for the quarter ended July 25, 2015.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $126.0 million, or 16.0% of contract revenues, for the quarter ended July 30, 2016, compared to $88.5 million, or 15.3% of contract revenues, for the quarter ended July 25, 2015.

On a GAAP basis, net income was $49.4 million, or $1.54 per common share diluted, for the quarter ended July 30, 2016. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income was $52.7 million, or $1.64 per common share diluted, for the quarter ended July 30, 2016, compared to net income of $33.8 million, or $0.97 per common share diluted, for the quarter ended July 25, 2015. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income for the quarter ended July 30, 2016 excludes $0.7 million of pre-tax acquisition transaction related costs and $4.6 million of pre-tax interest expense incurred for non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Company’s 0.75% senior convertible notes due September 2021.

The Company also reported:

Contract revenues of $2.673 billion for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016, compared to $2.022 billion for the fiscal year ended July 25, 2015. Contract revenues for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016 grew 22.7% on an organic basis after excluding contract revenues from acquired businesses that were not owned for the full year in both the current and prior year and adjusting for the additional week of operations during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 as a result of the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal year. Total contract revenues from acquired businesses were $159.0 million for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016, compared to $17.7 million for the fiscal year ended July 25, 2015.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $390.0 million, or 14.6% of contract revenues, for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016, compared to $265.5 million, or 13.1% of contract revenues, for the fiscal year ended July 25, 2015.

On a GAAP basis, net income was $128.7 million, or $3.89 per common share diluted, for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income was $148.4 million, or $4.48 per common share diluted, for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016, compared to net income of $84.3 million, or $2.41 per common share diluted, for the fiscal year ended July 25, 2015. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income for the fiscal year ended July 30, 2016 excludes $0.7 million of pre-tax acquisition transaction related costs, the impact of a pre-tax charge of approximately $16.3 million for early extinguishment of debt in connection with the redemption of the Company’s 7.125% senior

subordinated notes, as well as $14.7 million of pre-tax interest expense incurred for non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Company’s 0.75% senior convertible notes due September 2021.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in July. As a result, each fiscal year consists of either 52 weeks or 53 weeks of operations (with the additional week of operations occurring in the fourth quarter). Fiscal 2016 consisted of 53 weeks and fiscal 2015 consisted of 52 weeks of operations. Fiscal 2017 will consist of 52 weeks of operations.

The Company also announced its outlook for the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company currently expects total contract revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 to range from $780 million to $810 million. On a GAAP basis, diluted earnings per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 is expected to range from $1.47 to $1.62.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share guidance excludes $4.3 million of pre-tax interest expense for non-cash amortization of debt discount, or $0.08 per common share diluted on an after-tax basis. A reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share guidance provided for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 is included within the press release tables.

Additionally, the Company reported that the recently acquired operations of Goodman Networks are now expected to produce lower revenue in fiscal 2017 than initially anticipated but are expected to achieve higher EBITDA margins sooner than initially anticipated. The Company currently expects these operations to produce revenues of approximately $100 million during fiscal 2017. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, these operations are expected to produce EBITDA as a percentage of revenue in line with Dycom’s consolidated EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

DYCOM INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

TO COMPARABLE GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

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 in this release 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, adjusted for the additional week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 as a result of the Company’s 52/53 week fiscal calendar. Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenue growth (decline) is calculated as the percentage change in Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues over those of the comparable prior year period. Management believes organic growth (decline) is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s revenue performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, 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 - GAAP net income before loss on debt extinguishment, non-cash amortization of the debt discount, certain non-recurring items and any tax impact related to these items, and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share” as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Management excludes or adjusts each of the items identified below from Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share:

Non-cash amortization of the debt discount - The Company’s 0.75% senior convertible notes due September 2021 (the “Notes”) were allocated between debt and equity components. The difference between the principal amount and the carrying amount of the liability component of the notes represents a debt discount. The debt discount will be amortized over the term of the notes but will not result in periodic cash interest payments. During the three months and fiscal year ended July 30, 2016, the Company recognized approximately $4.6 million and $14.7 million, respectively, in pre-tax interest expense for non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Notes. The Company has excluded 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 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.

Loss on debt extinguishment - The Company incurred a pre-tax charge of approximately $16.3 million for early extinguishment of debt in connection with the redemption of its 7.125% senior subordinated notes in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Management believes excluding the loss on debt extinguishment from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures assists investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance. The Company believes this type of charge is not indicative of its core operating results. The exclusion of the loss on debt extinguishment from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures provides management with a consistent measure for assessing the current and historical financial results.

Tax impact of adjusted results - The tax impact of the adjusted results for the three months and fiscal year ended July 30, 2016 was calculated utilizing a Non-GAAP effective tax rate which approximates the Company’s effective tax rate used for financial planning. The tax impact included in the Company’s guidance for the quarter ending October 29, 2016 was calculated using an effective tax rate used for financial planning and forecasting future results.

19 Explanation of Non-GAAP 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 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 and adjusted for the additional week in Q4-16 as a result of our 52/53 week fiscal year. Non-GAAP Organic Revenue growth (decline) is calculated as the percentage change in Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues over those of the comparable prior year period. Management believes organic growth (decline) is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s revenue performance with prior periods. • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, 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 - GAAP net income before loss on debt extinguishment, non-cash amortization of the debt discount, certain non-recurring items and any tax impact related to these items, and "Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share" as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Management excludes or adjusts each of the items identified below from Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share: • Non-cash amortization of the debt discount - The Company’s 0.75% senior convertible notes due 2021 (the "Notes") were allocated between debt and equity components. The difference between the principal amount and the carrying amount of the liability component of the notes represents a debt discount. The debt discount will be amortized over the term of the notes but will not result in periodic cash interest payments. During the three months ended October 24, 2015, January 23, 2016, April 23, 2016, and July 30, 2016 the Company recognized approximately $1.8 million, $4.1 million, $4.2 million and $4.6 million, respectively, in pre-tax interest expense for non-cash amortization of the debt discount associated with the Notes. The Company has excluded 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 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. • Loss on debt extinguishment - The Company incurred a pre-tax charge of approximately $16.3 million for early extinguishment of debt in connection with the redemption of its 7.125% senior subordinated notes during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Management believes excluding the loss on debt extinguishment from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures assists investors’ overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance. The Company believes this type of charge is not indicative of its core operating results. The exclusion of the loss on debt extinguishment from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures provides management with a consistent measure for assessing the current and historical financial results. • Acquisition transaction related costs – The Company incurred costs of approximately $0.7 million in connection with the acquisition of Goodman Networks during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. The exclusion of the acquisition transaction related costs from the Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures provides management with a consistent measure for assessing financial results. • Tax impact of adjusted results - The tax impact of the adjusted results was calculated utilizing a Non-GAAP effective tax rate which approximates the Company’s effective tax rate used for financial planning. The tax impact included in the Company’s guidance for the quarter ending July 30, 2016 was calculated using an effective tax rate used for financial planning and forecasting future results.
