Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Dycom Industries, Inc. (“Dycom,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a leading provider of specialty contracting services focused on the digital infrastructure, telecommunications and utilities industries throughout the United States. These services include program management; planning; engineering and design; aerial, underground, and wireless construction; maintenance; and fulfillment services for telecommunications and digital infrastructure providers. We also provide underground facility locating services for various utilities, including telecommunications providers, as well as other construction and maintenance services for electric and gas utilities. Additionally, with the acquisition of Power Solutions, LLC (“Power Solutions”) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we provide comprehensive building infrastructure solutions, including electrical, energy management, security, and fire safety systems for data centers and other critical facilities. Dycom supplies the labor, tools, and equipment necessary to provide these services to its customers.
Accounting Period
Accounting Period. Our fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in January. 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 2027 consists of 52 weeks of operations, while fiscal 2026 consisted of 53 weeks of operations.
Segment Information
Segment Information. The Company operates in two reportable segments, Communications and Building Systems and services are provided on a decentralized basis. Each operating segment consists of a subsidiary (or in certain instances, the combination of two or more subsidiaries), whose results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). All of the Company’s Communications operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment based on their similar economic characteristics, nature of services and production processes, type of customers, and service distribution methods. During fiscal 2026, following the acquisition of Power Solutions, LLC (“Power Solutions”), the CODM reevaluated the Company’s reportable segments, which resulted in the addition of the Building Systems segment as a component of management’s internal financial information used for operational decision-making. Beginning in fiscal 2026, the Company reports the results of the Building Systems segment separately as a reportable segment. The Building Systems segment specializes in providing comprehensive building infrastructure solutions, including electrical, energy management, security, and fire safety systems for data centers and other critical facilities. See Note 20, Segment Reporting, for additional information.
Use of Estimates Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on our historical experience and management’s understanding of current facts and circumstances. At the time they are made, we believe that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Per Share Data
Per Share Data. Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding unvested restricted share units. Diluted earnings per common share includes the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and dilutive potential common shares arising from
our stock-based awards (including unvested restricted share units) if their inclusion is dilutive under the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents related to stock-based awards are excluded from diluted earnings per common share calculations if their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public entities to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statements (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The ASU modernizes the approach for internal-use software by eliminating the previous stage-based capitalization model so that the guidance is neutral to different software development projects. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

All other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued but not yet effective are currently being evaluated and at this time are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
