Thanks Rick. Now moving to slide four, 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&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.

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. 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.

Likewise, as we go forward on this program, we expect that 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.

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.

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.

As a result, we provided annual guidance for fiscal 2019, our first fiscal year end in 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. 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 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.

Going to slide five 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%.

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. 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. Operating cash flow was strong at $142.8 million in the quarter and liquidity was ample as cash from availability under our credit facility was $463 million.

Now, moving to slide six. 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.

In addition, emerging wireless technologies are driving significant wireline deployments. These wireline deployments are necessary to facilitate what is expected to be a decades’ 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. 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. In addition, we have secured a number of converged wireless/wireline multi-use network deployments. Customers are pursuing multi-year initiatives that are being planned and managed on a market-by-market basis.

Our ability to provide integrated planning, engineering and design, procurement and construction and maintenance services is of particular value to several industry participants.

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 technology 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. Going to slide seven, 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. AT&T was our largest customer with 21% of total revenue or $157.4 million. AT&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. Comcast was our third largest customer at 143.6% 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. Of note, this quarter is the first since April 2017 quarter where all of our top five customers have grown organically.

We are encouraged with our second consecutive quarter of double-digit organic growth despite the challenges we have described reporting a large customer program and its impact on margins. We have continued to extend our geographic reach and expand our program in management and network planning services.

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.

Now moving to slide eight, backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was $7.33 billion versus $7.313 billion at the end of the October 2018, an increase 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 book new work and renewed existing work. We continue to anticipate substantial future opportunities across a broad array of our customers. For AT&T we were awarded construction services agreements in Wisconsin, Texas, South Carolina and Florida.

For CenturyLink construction services in South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska; from Comcast fulfillment services in Michigan and Illinois. For various customer 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. Now, I will turn the call over to Drew for this financial review and outlook. .

Thanks Steve and good morning everyone. Going to slide nine, contract revenues for Q4 ‘19 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 ‘19 compared to $19.8 million in the year ago period.

Also revenue from an acquired business contributed $5.9 million of revenue in Q4 ‘19. 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&A expanse during Q4 ‘19 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.

Excluding the non-cash charge and the related impact on stock compensation, G&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 ‘19 was $0.10 per share. Now going to slide 10, our balance sheet 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.

For Q4 ‘19 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 ‘19 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. In summary we continue to maintain the ample liquidity and a strong balance sheet.

Going to slide 11, for the quarter ending April 2019 we currently expect total revenue to range from $750 million to $800 million. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS to range from $0.34 to $0.56 per share and adjusted EBITDA percent of contract revenue which decreases from the Q1 ‘19 results.

Other expectations include depreciation of $40.6 million to $41.4 million and amortization of $5.3 million. Share based compensation included in G&A of $5 million to $5.5 million, adjusted interest expense of approximately $7.3 million excluding $4.9 million of interest from the non-cash debt discount amortization of our notes.

Other income net is expected to range from $3.4 million to $4 million. The effective tax rate is expected at 27.5% before any tax effects of the settlement of share based awards.

Now going to slide 12, looking ahead to the July 2019 quarter we currently expect revenue growth of mid-single digits as a percentage of revenue compared to the Q2 ‘19 results and adjusted EBITDA margin percent of contract revenue which decreases from the Q2 ‘9 results. Now I will turn the call back to Steve. .

Thanks Drew. Moving to slide 13. Within a growing economy we experience the effects of a strong industry environment and capitalized on our significant strength. First and foremost, we maintained strong customer presence throughout our market. Second, our extensive market presence has allowed us to be at the forefront of evolving industry opportunities.

The end market drivers of these opportunities remain firm and are strengthening. Fiber deployments in contemplation of emerging wireless technologies are underway in many regions of the country.

Wireless construction activity and support of expanded coverage and capacity has begun to accelerate through the deployment of enhanced macro cells and new small cells. Telephone companies are deploying Fiber-To-The-Home to enable 1-gigabit high-speed connections. Cable operators are deploying fiber to small and medium businesses and enterprises.

A portion of these deployments are in anticipation of the customer sales process. Fiber deep deployments to expand capacity as well as new build opportunities are underway. Dramatically increased speeds to consumers are being provisioned.

Customers are consolidating supply chains, creating opportunities for market share growth and increasing the long-term value of our maintenance and operations business. In addition, we are increasingly providing integrated planning, engineering and design, procurement and construction and maintenance services.

We remain encouraged that our major customers are committed to multi-year capital spending initiatives and we are confident in our strategies, the prospects for our company, the capabilities of our dedicated employees and the experience of our management team as we grow our business. Now John, we will open the call for questions..

Certainly. [Operator Instructions]. First we go to the line of Alex Rygiel with B. Riley FBR. Please go ahead. .

Thank you. Good morning gentlemen. .

Good morning Alex. .

Steve, obviously there's not a revenue issue here. Your backlog is strong, your revenues were 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 challenge as it relates to pricing in the industry and your product versus productivity and efficiency versus cost inflation from what they were etc.?.

Yeah, I think Alex as we highlighted in our comments, the issues on the cost that we highlighted are really around the complexity that’s developed around a large customer program for a number of reasons. 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 are in a – have a 4% unemployment world which we've been, we've been there before, but it's really the complexity that’s created the cost, particularly in this fourth quarter. .

And what is your view on sort of market share and pricing in the industry in a more broader sense?.

So I think what was encouraging in some of the disclosures we made around backlog is that we were able to extend our master contract business into other portions of a very large customer outside the South East, 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 new – you know 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..

And lastly you've got plenty of liquidity. Can you prioritize M&A and share buyback and talk about opportunities in M&A. .

Yeah, so as always, Alex our capital allocation always runs to taking care of the organic growth that’s in the business and we were 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.

You know, 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 the 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&A versus share repurchases.

I would not tell you that M&A right now is big a focus in the business, as we are working hard in a number of areas. .

Very helpful, thank you. .

Next question is from Brent Thielman with D.A. Davidson. Please go ahead. .

Hey thanks. Good morning, Steve. .

Hey Brent. .

Steve, I guess given what you are seeing in this particular large program, does that change at all how you are thinking about preparing the business for kind of this next wave of spend. I mean it looks like you continue to add people.

There’s other things that you can do or you think you can do to optimize profitability just given how the demand seems to be evolving.

I guess second Steve is, do you feel like you still have the appropriate suite of services to fully address these change in strategies?.

So, I think Brent as we've mentioned to Alex, I mean we're working hard to get ahead of the increasing complexity. We are putting new processes in place on our side of the business; we are implementing new IT systems. I mean we are 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 don’t have a long term benefit. So it's a tough time, but we're optimistic that what we're working on makes us a better business.

And then, I think in terms of 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 in the back office and I think we're investing substantially in that area, because I think that's where the future is. .

Okay, and I guess as you’re having sort of ongoing customer dialogue elsewhere, you know beyond this single large customer, are you getting any sense of maybe some of these other programs are going to follow a similar path?.

So I think the complexity here is unique. I think there is 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.

I think the other thing is you know with the rest of the business there’s always issues, but it's nothing like this program and you know that’s part of our frustration and I'm sure investors.

We’ve 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 looked at the rest of the business, it really exceeded our Q4 expectations. .

Okay and then I guess maybe just one for probably Drew, but the $45 million in total AR you mentioned. I guess are you still evaluating that remaining $28 million you didn’t write-off.

What’s the status there?.

Yeah, thanks Brent. So we took a look at the total receivables and contract assets. We've made our estimate of the recoverability that's there as Steve mentioned before. There were some first day motions that were encouraging, and so we'll continue to evaluate that; and as Steve said, we continue to work with the customer..

Yeah, I think Brent, just to add to that, you know we had to look at it as of the end of January because the lawsuit existed at the end of January. We are working with the customer and we've had some experience in this area before and we'll work our way through it. .

Okay, thank you again. .

Next question is from Tahira Afzal with KeyBanc Capital Markets. Please go ahead. .

Thank you very much.

Steve, I guess my question is you know as we look at this big program and given the terms and embedded contract you were just going to share, and you look at you know other – the rule out of 5G and what have you going forward for other clients, is there any risks that you know you could end up with similar contractual terms, which is in essence with any of the others as they start to build out their programs.

Are you pretty confident this is the [inaudible] just around this one particular program. .

So, I think Tahira as we said earlier, it’s really the processes and the objectives and the priorities have evolved. That someone accelerated in the last quarter.

So it's really not a – from our perspective its 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 that. So we think we can manage it going forward, but it's something that we're going to continue working out hard to get ahead of. .

Alright, and Steve I guess the reason I am asking is, you know you guys are pretty good once you have a problem trying to fix it. But you know 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 full year ‘20 and doesn’t really trickle into the next year. .

With respect to the rest of the business Tahira, to contract forms are all different. Our customers have different approaches. There are big themes as we talked about in terms of planning and engineering and procurement, 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, is what we've said is we called it out. We wanted investors to understand that we set our perspective there based on the costs.

You know those are going to extend at this point through fiscal 2020. We are working hard to change that. That won’t be a happy outcome, but that's something that we're working hard to change. .

Alright, thank you Steve. .

Our next question is from Adam Thalhimer with Thompson Davis. Please go ahead. .

Good morning Steve and Drew. .

Hey Adam!.

You referenced some customer modulations ahead of other large deployments.

Is that incremental weakness that you expect to see in the first half of ‘20 or are you seeing some of that in Q4 as well?.

I think that’s a general statement that we've had in our comments Adam for a period of time that there is always going to be things with the customer where you get some modulations.

You know we have customers that are rolling out a number of new technologies, but we consider that different and more part of the backdrop for the business than what we talked about in this large program. So I don’t think that’s a particularly new disclosure for us. .

Okay, that’s helpful. And then Steve you have one large customer who's talking about a Fiber-To-The-Home program coming to the end in the middle of this year.

What are your high level thoughts on that?.

So, you know clearly they’ve stated publicly that they are going to wind it down through the middle of the year. We also have a good wireless business with that customer that actually is growing faster than the wireline business.

So we think that there is some opportunity to have some rotation and I think that customers has also said that when they have deployed fiber they had lower churn in the customer base, they are higher value customers and what you have to see is they assess their priorities going in to calendar 2020, what their perspectives are.

But clearly with that customer they got a lot on their plate and that's how they prioritized it this year, particularly given the large wireless ramp. .

Got it, and the last one from me, just curious.

I mean how do you think Dycom plays in 5G? What are the big opportunities for you around 5G?.

Well, I think as we’ve said before, 5G rests on getting wireless signals into fiber as quick as possible, right. So the old saying is that the core of a wireless network is fiber and so I think we play 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'll be more as we go through the rest of the year. We are able to gain some share there. So I think we can play really across the board there. .

Okay, thanks. .

Next questions from Chad Dillard with Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead. .

Hi, this is George Saravelos on for Chad. Thanks for taking the question.

Just wanted to get some commentary on I guess basically the cadence of yeah, mostly EBITDA margins and revenues in the next year in terms of kind of first half, second half waiting and also longer term whether mid-teens EBITDA margins are still you know possible, I guess maybe pushed out perhaps a year, even out of its recent cost change. Thank you. .

So George, let me take the second question and I’ll let Drew address your first. So in a good environment we have achieved double digit 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.

And then Drew why don’t you take kind of the EBITDA?.

And then George, for the first two quarters we were right on that, that we believe it’s down some versus the prior year quarter, that we provided in the outlook..

Yeah, and I mean we haven’t – as we’ve talked about in our comments, we are not doing annual guidance, but we think that's enough to kind of give you at lately the trajectory through the first half of the year. .

Got it, great. Thank you. .

Next question is from Eric Luebchow with Wells Fargo. Please go ahead. .

Hi Steve, how are you doing?.

Hey Eric. .

Just a question on the kind of uncertainty around timing.

Just curious if it's still a little bit more of a permitting issue or if those issues have been largely resolved or is it kind of more specific to the customers themselves and how they are choosing to deploy capital?.

I'm not sure that its either one Eric. I mean what we’ve really talked about is that the complexity of the project has evolved and accelerated and that's really where the costs are coming from. The constraints on actually getting work done as you look at the numbers and they have diminished.

We got on a seasonally adjusted basis, you know we grew revenue sequentially, so it’s really a different set of issues other than those, other than any constrains. .

Got it, and just a quick question on the guidance. For the first, the next two quarters it looks like your revenue growth kind of deceleration into the single digits. So I'm just curious if that’s more related to the complexity of some of these large customer deals and uncertainty around timing or anything else to call out there. .

Yeah, I don’t think – I think what we talk about is one, for everybody on the call February hadn’t been a sterling month for weather, so we are calling out that impact and clearly we have this as we discussed earlier, we have this customer that will accelerate early in the year and then probably decelerate through the middle of the year as they complete this project and we just wanted to reflect that and not get ahead of ourselves.

.

Okay, great. Thank you. .

Next question is from Noelle Dilts with Stifel. Please go ahead. .

Hi, good morning. .

Hay Noelle. .

First, just to start with a housekeeping question. Could you just give us – provide us with the facilities locating and utility revenues and then also if you could give wireless as a percentages of sales that would be helpful. .

Hey, good morning Noelle. So I'll give the split first and then the rest of the top 10. So Telco was at 69.8%, Cable was at 22.2%, facility locating was at 5.3%, electrical and other was at 2.7%. Charter was now our number six customer at 3.2% of revenue.

Frontier was number seven at 1.7%, Crown Castle was number eight at 1.3%, Edison International was number nine at 1.2% and South West Gas was number 10 at 1%. .

Okay, thank you. And I know we’ve talked a lot about this program with evolving complexity. But you know I think what I’m struggling to understand here is you know as a large value partner for your customer.

You know typically when things like, complexity evolve and accelerate you are able to work with the customer to some extent, you know with sort of a contract and how you are getting confiscated. 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. .

You know Noelle, I don’t think we are going to get into the specifics of any communications with any customer. I think we’ve given you what we can in terms of how we feel the programs evolved and the tax impacts associated with that, but I don’t think we have anything to add. .

Okay, alright. Thanks. .

Next question is from Christian Schwab with Craig-Hallum Capital. Please go ahead. .

Hi great, thanks for taking my question. Steve, I just want to make sure I heard it correctly, that the large customer program will be running at lower than overall company margins through fiscal year 2020 and then you would expect to renegotiate that contract potentially.

Did I hear that correctly?.

Well, you heard the heard the first half correctly Christian. I mean that, you know it’s going to run where it is. We are working hard to make it better. We are not commenting beyond fiscal 2020, other than we are working hard to make it to improve our performance in a number of areas and get ahead of this complexity. .

Okay.

Can you give us like a simple real life example of one of the biggest complexities that you are facing that was unanticipated?.

Alright Christian, we are – once again we are careful to describe these kinds of situations and you know these are large complex programs. It's in a number of geographies across the country. There are things that come up that have created complexity that we didn't expect.

We've applied cost to get ahead of that and I don't think we have anything more to add to that. .

That’s good. Alright, thank you. .

And Mr. Nielsen, there are no further questions in queue. .

Okay, well we thank everybody for your attendance on the call, and we look forward to speaking to you at the end of May after our first quarter. Thank you. .

Ladies and gentlemen, that does conclude your conference for today. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect..
