(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) held a webcast and conference call to review its </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">fiscal 2019 fourth quarter and annual results</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and provide forward guidance.

Mr. Nielsen and the Company would like to clarify that historically in a good environment, the Company has experienced EBITDA margin in the mid-teens. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall serve as a revision of the statements made by the Company on February 27, 2019, and this revision&#160;has been&#160;reflected&#160;in the transcript that has been furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The transcript contains the financial measures of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share, Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares, 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, and certain non-recurring items, is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (&#8220;GAAP&#8221;) 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. Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted Shares is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to GAAP diluted shares. 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&#8217;s performance for the period reported with the Company&#8217;s performance in prior periods. A&#160;reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in&#160;the&#160;conference call materials referred to on the webcast and conference call, a copy of which&#160;has been furnished as Exhibit&#160;99.1 to the Company&#8217;s&#160;Form 8-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission&#160;on </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">February&#160;27,&#160;2019</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The information in the preceding paragraphs, as well as Exhibits 99.1, shall not be deemed &#8220;filed&#8221; for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the &#8220;Exchange Act&#8221;), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.

Now moving to slide 4, and a review of our fourth quarter results. As you review our results, please note that we have presented in our release and comments certain revenue amounts that exclude revenues from storm restoration services during the quarter and the prior year quarter and from a business acquired during the April 2018 quarter. We will also reference adjusted G&amp;A, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share. All of these measures are non-GAAP financial measures. See slides 14 through 19 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Before I begin my detailed overview of the quarter, I will provide general comments on the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and full year fiscal 2020, highlight one recent development and discuss our approach to guidance for fiscal 2020. First, fourth quarter results were disappointing. Compared to our expectations, revenue excluding storm restoration services was at the upper end of guidance but earnings were near the low end.</font></div><div><br></div><div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div></div><div><br></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Gross margin in particular underperformed. This margin outcome primarily resulted from a large customer program whose revenue continued to grow, but whose costs were more than we had expected. These costs reflected in part the customer's evolving objectives, processes and priorities as well as the introduction of new initiatives and the effects of the significant scale of the program.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Likewise, as we go forward on this program, we expect these factors and their associated complexity will result in margins lower than our overall company margins and may impact the timing of revenues. We are working hard in a number of areas to improve our performance but given the current size and complexity of this program, we are unable at this time to provide specific estimates as to the pace and impact of these improvements during fiscal 2020.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Second, as many are aware, on February 25 our fifth largest customer filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. At the end of the January quarter, this customer owed us approximately $45 million for accounts receivable and contract assets. We look forward to working with this customer and collecting this balance, but have taken a charge of $17.2 million reflecting our current evaluation of recoverability as of January, the end of our fiscal year. We continue providing services to this customer on a business as usual basis.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Finally, in September 2017, we changed our fiscal year end from July to January. We made this change to better align our fiscal year with the budget and planning cycles of our calendar year customers. In addition we anticipated that this better alignment would facilitate our provision of annual guidance.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">As a result, we provided annual guidance for fiscal 2019, our first fiscal year ended January. For a number of reasons, we are modifying this approach for fiscal 2020. Changes to plans or activity levels that occur after the beginning of the calendar year by individual customers have been more than we anticipated when we initiated annual guidance a year ago.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Given that our top five customers typically represent almost 80% of total revenue, guidance for us is particularly sensitive to these types of changes. For example recent unplanned developments at our fifth largest customer make it difficult to predict revenue for that customer for fiscal 2020. Accordingly, for our fiscal 2020, we have reverted to our prior practice of providing investors detailed quantitative guidance for the current quarter and directional guidance for the subsequent quarter.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Going to slide 5 and a review of the fourth quarter. Revenue was $748.6 million, an increase of 14.3%. Organic revenue excluding $20.4 million of storm restoration services in the quarter and $19.8 million in the year-ago quarter increased 13.7%.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">As we deployed 1 gigabit wireline networks, wireless/wireline converged networks and wireless networks, this quarter reflected an increase in demand from all of our top five customers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Gross margins were 15.41% of revenue and adjusted general and administrative expenses were 7.8%. All of these factors produced adjusted EBITDA of $59.8 million or 8% of revenue and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.10 compared to $0.12 in the year-ago quarter.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Operating cash flow was strong at $142.8 million in the quarter and liquidity was ample as cash and availability under our credit facility was $463 million.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Now moving to slide 6. Today, a number of major industry participants are deploying significant wireline networks across broad sections of the country. These networks are generally designed to provision bandwidth enabling 1 gigabit speeds to individual consumers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition emerging wireless technologies are driving significant wireline deployments. These wireline deployments are necessary to facilitate what is expected to be a decades&#8217; long deployment of fully converged wireless/wireline networks that will enable high bandwidth low latency applications. The industry effort required to deploy these converged networks continues to meaningfully broaden our set of opportunities. Total industry opportunities in aggregate are robust.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">We are providing program management, planning, engineering and design, aerial and underground construction, and fulfillment services for 1 gigabit deployments. These services are being provided across the country in more than a dozen metropolitan areas to several customers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition we have secured a number of converged wireless/wireline multi-use network deployments. Customers are pursuing multiyear initiatives that are being planned and managed on a market-by-market basis. Our ability to provide integrated </font></div><div><br></div><div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2</font></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div></div><div><br></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">planning, engineering, and design, procurement and construction and maintenance services is of particular value to several industry participants.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition to the timing challenges presented by a large customer program earlier discussed, we also expect some normal timing volatility and customer spending modulations as network deployment strategies and technologies evolve on other large-scale network deployments. Tactical considerations may also impact timing. We remain confident that our competitively unparalleled scale and our financial strength position us well to deliver valuable service to our customers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Going to slide 7. We continue to experience the effects of a strong overall industry environment during the quarter with increases in demand from our top five customers. Organic revenue, excluding storm restoration services, increased 13.7%. Our top five customers combined produced 79.7% of revenue, increasing 19.4% organically while all other customers decreased 3.6% organically.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">AT&amp;T was our largest customer with 21% of total revenue or $157.4 million. AT&amp;T grew 12.5% organically. Revenue from Verizon was $156.3 million or 20.9% of revenue. Verizon was Dycom's second largest customer and grew 77.2% organically.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Comcast was our third largest customer with $143.6 million, or 19.2% of revenue and grew organically 0.9%. Revenue from CenturyLink was $109.6 million, or 14.6% of revenue. CenturyLink was our fourth largest customer and grew organically 2.5%. And finally, revenue from Windstream was $29.5 million, or 3.9% of revenue. Windstream was our fifth largest customer.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Of note, this quarter is the first since April 2017 quarter where all of our top five customers have grown organically. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">We are encouraged with our second consecutive quarter of double-digit organic growth despite the challenges we have described regarding a large customer program and its impact on margins. We have continued to extend our geographic reach and expand our program management and network planning services.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In fact, over the last several years, we have meaningfully increased the long-term value of our maintenance and operations business, a trend which we believe will parallel our deployment of 1 gigabit in wireless/wireline converged networks as those deployments dramatically increase the amount of outside plant network that must be extended and maintained.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Now moving to slide 8. Backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was $7.33 billion versus $7.313 billion at the end of October 2018, an increase of over $17 million. Of this backlog approximately $2.739 billion is expected to be completed in the next 12 months. The total backlog calculation reflects solid performance as we booked new work and renewed existing work. We continue to anticipate substantial future opportunities across a broad array of our customers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For AT&amp;T, we were awarded construction services agreements in Wisconsin, Texas, South Carolina and Florida; with CenturyLink construction services in South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska. From Comcast, fulfillment services in Michigan and Illinois; for various customers locating services in California, Virginia, Tennessee and Georgia; and finally, we secured rural fiber services agreements in Washington, Maine and West Virginia. Headcount increased during the quarter to 14,920.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Now I will turn the call over to Drew for his financial review and outlook.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">H. Andrew DeFerrari</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Senior Vice President &amp; Chief Financial Officer, Dycom Industries, Inc.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Thanks, Steve, and good morning, everyone. Going to slide 9. Contract revenues for Q4 2019 were $748.6 million and organic revenue growth was at 13.7%, reflecting increases from our top five customers. Storm restoration services contributed $20.4 million of revenue in Q4 2019 compared to $19.8 million in the year-ago period. Also revenue from an acquired business contributed $5.9 million of revenue in Q4 2019.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Adjusted EBITDA was $59.8 million or 8% of revenue. Gross margins were at 15.4% and were below our expectations. Margins in the quarter were impacted by costs of a large customer program. On February 25, 2019, our fifth-largest customer filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. As of January 26, 2019 the company had approximately $45 million of total accounts receivable and contract assets related to this customer. Against this amount, we have taken a pre-tax non-cash charge of $17.2 million as a component of G&amp;A expense during Q4 2019, as required to account for our current evaluation of the recoverability of the accounts receivable and contract assets. We look forward to working with this customer on collecting the balances owed to us.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><br></div><div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">3</font></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div></div><div><br></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Excluding the non-cash charge and the related impact on stock compensation, G&amp;A expense decreased approximately 140 basis points compared to the January quarter last year. Our lower financial performance this year resulted in a reduction of performance-based incentive compensation and share-based compensation during the quarter. Our non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS in Q4 2019 was $0.10 per share.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Now going to slide 10. Our balance sheet and financial position remains strong. We ended the quarter with $450 million of term loans outstanding and no revolver borrowings. Liquidity is ample at $463 million at the end of the quarter consisting of availability from our credit facility and cash on hand. Cash flow from operations was substantial at $142.8 million during the current quarter.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For Q4 2019, the combined DSOs of accounts receivable and net contract assets were 103 days including accounts receivable net of allowance classified as non-current that are owed from a customer that recently filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. Capital expenditures were $33.8 million during Q4 2019, net of disposal proceeds, and gross CapEx was $37.2 million. For fiscal 2020, we anticipate capital expenditures net of disposal proceeds to range from $150 million to $160 million.

Moving to slide 13. Within a growing economy, we experienced the effects of a strong industry environment and capitalized on our significant strengths.

Your backlog's strong. Your revenues are pretty solid in the quarter. Guidance is pretty firm. But the costs are absolutely an issue here. Could you add a little bit more color as to how we should think about the cost challenges that relates to pricing in the industry and your product versus productivity and efficiency versus cost inflation from what they were, et cetera?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.

I mean, there's been evolving initiatives and priorities and objectives and that's really where the issue is as we look at its complexity. I mean, clearly we're in a 4% unemployment world, which we've been there before, but it's really the complexity that's created the costs, particularly, in this fourth quarter.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Alex Rygiel, Analyst</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">B.

That's a first for us. And not only was it in one part of the country, but it was in several parts of the country. So I think that was helpful. We had other extensions that we highlighted there of new business in different parts of the country for existing customers. We've had some renewals after the end of the quarter and actually picked up some fairly significant new business with an existing customer. So we feel good about the competitive positioning. We're working hard to get ahead of the complexity on this large program, but we've got work to do.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Alex Rygiel, Analyst</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">B.

Can you prioritize M&amp;A and share buyback and talk about opportunities in M&amp;A?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.

So as always, Alex, our capital allocation always runs to taking care of the organic growth that's in the business. I mean, we're going to be making some investments to start these or have made some investments to start some of these new master service agreements and so we always want to make sure we have enough liquidity there. We had this unfortunate situation with one customer, so you always want to make sure that you have a cushion there, although we are encouraged with that customer with some of their first day motions. So I think we're going to take care of our customers and the growth opportunities and then we'll look at M&amp;A versus share repurchases. I would not tell you that M&amp;A right now is as big a focus on the business as we are working hard in a number of areas.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Alex Rygiel, Analyst</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">B.

I mean, it looks like you continue to add people. But are there other things that you can do or you think you can do to optimize profitability just given how the demand seemed to be evolving? And I guess, second, Steve, is, do you feel like you still have the appropriate suite of services to fully address these changes in strategies?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.

We&#8217;re putting new processes in place on our side of the business. We're implementing new IT systems. I mean, we're doing things that ultimately make us a better business. They have a cost impact today that we didn't expect, but we're not spending money on things that won't have a long-term benefit. So it's a tough time, but we are optimistic that what we're working on makes us a better business.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">And then I think in terms of the suite of services, I think we're very comfortable with the portfolio of services that we provide. I mean, increasingly on these large programs for all of our customers, there's a significant IT element to the deployment both remotely in the field and then on the back office and I think we're investing substantially in that area because I think that's where the future is.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Brent Thielman</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, D.

And I guess as you're having sort of ongoing customer dialogue elsewhere beyond this single large customer, are you getting any sense that maybe some of these other programs are going to follow a similar path?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E. Nielsen</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, Dycom Industries, Inc.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">So I think the complexity here is unique. I think there's an increasing openness to us being involved in more of the engineering, planning and the procurement and managing of the materials and that's across all of our customers. So I think that's a factor.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">I think the other thing is, with the rest of the business there's always issues, but it's nothing like this program and that's part of our frustration and I'm sure investors. We had top five organic growth, good quarter in wireless which is continuing to grow and we've got a good business and in fact if you look at the rest of the business it really exceeded our Q4 expectations.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Brent Thielman</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, D.

Steve, I guess my question is as we look at this big program, should we assume it's an embedded contract to risk ownership and you look at other -the roll-out of 5G and what have you going forward product line, is there any risks that you could end up with a similar contract with them, not just in the sense with any of the others as they start to build their programs? So are you pretty confident this is largely due to the terms of this one particular program?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.

So it's really not - from our perspective it's really that complexity that we have to manage and we're not seeing that with other customers. And as I said before, we're working hard to get ahead of it. So we think we can manage it going forward, but it's something that we're going to continue to work out hard to get ahead of.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Tahira Afzal</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">All right, then. Steve, I guess the reason I'm asking is you guys are pretty good, once you have a problem, trying to fix it. But if it spreads, I guess, what's the risk or how confident are you that this is something that you can box in 2019, calendar 2019 and your fiscal year 2020 and doesn't really trickle into the next year?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.

But the contract terms as we said before are often fixed for many years. I mean, so the backlog that we booked last quarter was on the same contract forms that those customers have used for a long period of time. So I think that's the issue. In terms of the large program as what we've said is we've called it out. We want investors to understand that we reset our perspective there based on the costs. Those are going to extend at this point through fiscal 2020. We're working hard to change that. That won't be a happy outcome, but that's something that we're working hard to change.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Tahira Afzal</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Got it.

We also have a good wireless business with that customer that actually is growing faster than the wireline business. So we think that there's some opportunity to have some rotation. And I think that customer also said that when they have deployed fiber they have lower churn in the customer base, they are higher value customers, and we'll just have to see as they assess our priorities going into calendar 2020 what their perspectives are. But clearly with that customer they've got a lot on their plate and that's how they prioritize this year particularly given the large wireless ramp.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Adam Robert Thalhimer</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, Thompson Davis &amp; Co.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">I've got it. And the last one for me, just curious. I mean, how do you think that Dycom plays in 5G?

Right? So the old saying is that the core of a wireless network is fiber. And so I think we&#8217;ve played there. I think we have a growing wireless business. It was 8.3% of revenue in the quarter. So at a $250 million run rate roughly I think that will be more as we go through the rest of the year. We're able to gain some share there. So I think we can play really across the board there.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Adam Robert Thalhimer</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Analyst, Thompson Davis &amp; Co.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Okay.

Let me take the second question and I'll let Drew address your first. So, look, in a good environment we have achieved mid-teens*EBITDA. Given the challenges that we've highlighted here and that we've discussed, it's not expected for fiscal 2020. That doesn't mean that we've given up. That doesn't mean that we're not working hard to take cost out of the business and deploy new ways of managing the business. But I think right now that's our best expectation for this year. Then Drew, in terms of kind of the EBITDA.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:9pt;">*The historical EBITDA margin stated on the webcast and conference call has been updated to reflect a clarification</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">H.

I think what I'm struggling to understand here is, as a large valued partner for your customers, typically when things like complexity evolve and accelerate, you are able to work with the customer to some extent on - with sort of a contract and how you're getting compensated. Are you seeing some of that here? Or is the market just kind of competitive and that makes that sort of contract evolution and negotiation challenging?</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Steven E.
