NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—Unaudited

1. Basis of Presentation

Dycom Industries, Inc. (“Dycom” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of specialty contracting services throughout the United States. These services include engineering, construction, maintenance and installation services to telecommunications providers, underground locating services to various utilities including telecommunications providers, and other construction and maintenance services to electric utilities and others.

The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the results of Dycom and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for each of the three and six month periods reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such statements. The results of operations for the six months ended January 28, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. For a better understanding of the Company and its financial statements, the Company recommends reading these condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended July 30, 2005 included in the Company’s Registration Statement on S-4/A (“Registration No. 333-130194-22) filed with the SEC on February 13, 2006 and the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on September 9, 2005.

Use of Estimates— The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. For the Company, key estimates include revenue recognition for costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, allowance for doubtful accounts, self-insured claims liability, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, asset lives used in computing depreciation and amortization, including amortization of intangibles, and accounting for income taxes, contingencies and litigation. While the Company believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, the actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Restricted Cash —As of January 28, 2006 and July 30, 2005, the Company had approximately $3.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, in restricted cash which is held as collateral in support of projected workers’ compensation, automobile and general liability obligations. The restricted cash is included in other current assets and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and changes in restricted cash are reported in cash flows from investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company has reclassified the changes in restricted cash of $0.9 million as a component of cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended January 29, 2005 to conform to the current year presentation.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which amended SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) requires measurement of the cost of share-based payment transactions to employees at the fair value of the award on the grant date and recognition of expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. SFAS No. 123(R) became effective for the Company on July 31, 2005, the first day of fiscal 2006. Prior to fiscal 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 which required recognition of compensation expense based on the intrinsic value of the equity instrument awarded. Consequently, no stock-based compensation expense for stock option grants was reflected in net income as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Beginning July 31, 2005, the first day of fiscal 2006, the Company has applied the modified prospective application of SFAS No. 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated. As a result of applying SFAS
No. 123(R) to unvested stock options at July 31, 2005, the Company’s income before income taxes was $0.3 million and $1.0 million lower for the three and six month periods ended January 28, 2006, respectively, and the Company’s net income was $0.2 million and $0.9 million lower for the three and six month periods ended January 28, 2006, respectively. Additionally, there was an immaterial effect on cash flows from operating and financing activities. Stock-based compensation related to stock options that were unvested as of July 31, 2005 resulted in expense of $0.01 per basic and diluted share and $0.02 per basic and diluted share for the three and six month periods ended January 28, 2006, respectively.

Pro forma information under SFAS 123(R) regarding stock option grants made to the Company’s employees and directors for periods prior to fiscal 2006 is presented below (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts).


	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	January 29, 2005			January 29, 2005
Net income, as reported	$	7,374		$	22,994
Deduct: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based methods for awards, net of related tax effects		(1,492	)		(2,830	)

Pro forma net income	$	5,882		$	20,164

Earnings per share:
Basic — as reported	$	0.15		$	0.47

Basic — pro forma	$	0.12		$	0.41

Diluted — as reported	$	0.15		$	0.47

Diluted — pro forma	$	0.12		$	0.41

For the three months and six months ended January 28, 2006, approximately $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of compensation expense has been recognized in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations related to stock options and restricted stock. Compensation costs for these awards are based on the fair value at the original grant date. The total tax benefit recognized related to stock options and restricted stock for the three months and six months ended January 28, 2006 was approximately $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended January 28, 2006, the Company received cash and realized a tax benefit from the exercise of stock options of approximately $2.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Comprehensive Income —During the quarters ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005, the Company did not have any changes in its equity resulting from non-owner sources and, accordingly, comprehensive income was equal to the net income amounts presented for the respective periods in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2. Computation of Earnings Per Share

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation as required by SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, excluding unvested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per share includes the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus dilutive potential common shares, including time vesting restricted common stock and stock options using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents related to stock options are excluded from diluted earnings per share calculations if their effect would be anti-dilutive. Stock options are anti-dilutive when the exercise price is higher than the current market price of the Company’s common stock. Performance vesting restricted shares are excluded from diluted earnings per share calculations if the performance measures are not achieved during the period.

3. Acquisitions

During December 2005, the Company acquired Prince Telecom Holdings, Inc. (“Prince”) for a purchase price of approximately $65.4 million including transaction fees. Of this purchase price, $5.6 million was placed in escrow, a portion of which may be held for a period of up to 24 months to satisfy potential indemnification obligations of the seller pursuant to the acquisition agreement. Prince installs and maintains customer premise equipment, including set top boxes and cable modems, for leading cable multiple system operators throughout the United States. The Company borrowed $65.0 million under its credit agreement to fund the acquisition.

During September 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of RJE Telecom, Inc. (“RJE”) for a cash purchase price of approximately $9.8 million. RJE provides specialty contracting services primarily to telephone companies.

The Company accounted for the above acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed on the basis of their respective fair values on the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation for the Prince acquisition is preliminary as the Company continues to assess the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities. Purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill. The operating results of the above acquisitions are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from their acquisition dates. The purchase price of Prince and RJE are derived as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Prince		RJE
Cash paid	$	65,100	$	9,710
Transaction costs		291		67

Total purchase price	$	65,391	$	9,777

Management determined the fair values used in the purchase price allocation for intangible assets with the assistance of independent valuation specialists based on the estimated discounted future cash flows, royalty rates and historical data, among other information. Goodwill of approximately $3.0 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes related to the Prince acquisition. The purchase price of Prince and RJE are allocated as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Prince		RJE

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings		1,831		3,735

Net assets acquired	$	65,391	$	9,777

The following unaudited pro forma summaries present the Company’s consolidated results of operations as if the Prince and RJE acquisitions had occurred on August 1, 2004, the first day of the Company’s 2005 fiscal year. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the combined companies had these acquisitions occurred at the beginning of the years presented nor is it indicative of future results. Included in the pro forma amounts for the three and six months ended January 28, 2006 is $6.2 million of non-recurring charges incurred by Prince prior to the acquisition which were directly related to the transaction. The charges include stock-based compensation expense related to Prince’s outstanding stock options and an advisory fee paid to an investment bank.

In October 2005, Dycom Investments, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $150.0 million of 8.125% senior subordinated notes (“Notes”) due October 2015. Interest payments are due semi-annually on April 15th and October 15th, beginning April 15, 2006. The Notes are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company (see Note 17). The indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to make certain payments, including the payment of dividends, incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, create liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, merge or consolidate with another entity, sell assets, and enter into transactions with affiliates. As of January 28, 2006, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions under the Notes. In connection with issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a First Amendment (“the Amendment”) to its five year $300 million unsecured revolving Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”). After giving effect to the Amendment, the Company is required to (i) maintain a consolidated leverage ratio of not greater than 3.00 to 1.00., (ii) maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.75 to 1.00, as measured at the end of each fiscal quarter and (iii) maintain consolidated tangible net worth, which shall be calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter, of not less than $50.0 million plus 50% of consolidated net income (if positive) from September 8, 2005 to the date of computation plus 75% of the equity issuances made from September 8, 2005 to the date of computation. The aggregate proceeds from the issuance of the Notes, together with $33.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement and cash on hand, were used to purchase 8.76 million shares of the Company’s common stock in October 2005 (see Note 13).

In December 2005, the Company borrowed $65.0 million under the Credit Agreement in connection with the acquisition of Prince (see Note 3). During the quarter ended January 28, 2006, the Company repaid $66.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement. As of January 28, 2006, the Company had $32.0 million of borrowings and $44.7 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement. The outstanding letters of credit are primarily issued to insurance companies as part of the Company’s self-insurance program. At January 28, 2006, the Company had borrowing availability of $138.7 million under the Credit Agreement and was in compliance with all financial covenants and conditions.

The Company has $1.8 million in capital lease obligations and $7.8 million in other notes payable. The capital lease obligations and notes payable were assumed in connection with the fiscal 2004 acquisition of UtiliQuest and the fiscal 2006 acquisition of Prince. The capital leases include obligations for certain vehicles and computer equipment and expire at various dates into fiscal 2007. The other notes payable include a $3.6 million note bearing interest at 6%, payable semi-annually on March 31 and September 30, due in November 2006; and a $4.2 million note bearing interest at 5.2%, payable monthly, due October 2006.

12. Commitments and contingencies

The federal employment tax returns for two of the Company’s subsidiaries have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). As a result of the audit, the Company received a proposed assessment from the IRS in March 2004. At issue, according to the examination reports, were the taxpayers’ characterization of certain employee reimbursements for the calendar years 2000 and 2001. During fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2006, the Company reached agreed assessments with the IRS regarding the two subsidiaries. As of January 28, 2006 the Company has accrued approximately $0.7 million related to the final assessment which the Company expects to pay during the remainder of fiscal 2006.

In the ordinary course of business, there are transactions for which the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. Consequently, judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and the associated income tax assets and liabilities. The Company regularly assesses its position with regard to individual tax exposures and records liabilities for uncertain tax positions in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”. These liabilities reflect management’s best estimate of the likely outcomes of current and potential future audits.

In the normal course of business, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have pending claims and legal proceedings. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, based on information available at this time, that none of the current claims or proceedings will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

13. Capital Stock

On September 12, 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a repurchase of up to 9.5 million outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, at a price per share not less than $18.50 and not greater than $21.00 through a “Dutch Auction” tender offer. The final number of shares purchased under the tender offer, which expired on October 11, 2005, was 8.76 million shares. These shares were purchased at a price of $21.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $186.2 million, including fees and expenses. The Company cancelled these shares in the period repurchased. The tender offer was funded with proceeds from the issuance of $150.0 million in Notes, borrowings of $33.0 million from the Credit Agreement (see Note 10), and cash on hand.

14. Stock Based Awards

The Company’s has stock-based award plans are comprised of the 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan (“the 1991 Plan”), the Arguss Communications, Inc. 1991 Stock Option Plan (“the 1991 Arguss Plan”), 1994 Directors Stock Option Plan (“the 1994 Directors Plan”), the 1998 Incentive Stock Option Plan (“the 1998 Plan”), the 2001 Directors Stock Option Plan (“the 2001 Directors Plan”), the 2002 Directors Restricted Stock Plan (“2002 Directors Plan), and the 2003 Long-term Incentive Plan (“the 2003 Plan”), collectively (“the Plans”). The Company’s policy is to issue new shares to satisfy stock option exercises and restricted stock awards.

The 1991 Plan and the 1994 Directors Plan have expired and no further options will be granted under these plans. Additionally, no further options will be granted under the 1991 Arguss Plan. At January 28, 2006, there were 69,426 options, 12,000 options, and 179,389 options outstanding under the 1991 Plan, the 1994 Directors Plan, and the 1991 Arguss Plan, respectively.

Under the 1998 Plan and the 2003 Plan, the Company may grant equity awards to key employees for up to approximately 3.3 million and 2.0 million shares of common stock, respectively, until the plans expire in 2008 and 2013, respectively. Under the terms of these plans, stock options are granted at the closing price on the date of the grant and are exercisable over a period of up to ten years. At January 28, 2006, there were options for 2,081,308 shares outstanding and 588,801 shares were available for grant from the 1998 Plan. At January 28, 2006, there were options for 960,700 shares outstanding, 419,505 shares of unvested restricted stock outstanding, and there were 562,512 shares available for grant from the 2003 Plan.

Under the 2001 Directors Plan, the Company may grant options to directors for up to 240,000 shares of common stock until the plan expires in 2011. Under the terms of this plan, options are granted at the closing price on the date of the grant and are exercisable over a period of up to ten years. At January 28, 2006, there were 84,501 options outstanding and 143,499 shares were available for grant from the 2001 Directors Plan.

The options under the 1998 Plan, the 2003 Plan, and the 2001 Directors Plan vest and become exercisable ratably over a four-year period, beginning on the date of the grant.

The 2002 Directors Plan, approved by the Company’s shareholders on November 26, 2002, has 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance to non-employee directors. The non-employee directors are required to receive a minimum percentage of their annual retainer fees in restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The number of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to be granted under the 2002 Directors Plan is based on the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date such annual retainer fees are payable. As of January 28, 2006, 13,042 shares had been issued under the 2002 Directors Plan at a weighted average market price of $20.14 per share.

The fair value of restricted stock grants is estimated on the date of grant and is generally equal to the closing stock price of the Company on the date of grant. The average fair value of the restricted shares granted during the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005 is $22.04 per share and $29.56 per share, respectively. The fair value of stock option grants is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on certain assumptions including: expected volatility based on the historical price of the Company’s stock over the expected life of the option; the risk free rate of return based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the option; the expected life based on the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding using historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination; and dividend yield based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payments. The pro forma weighted average fair value of options granted during the six months ended January 28, 2006 was $13.57 per share based on a risk-free interest rate of 4.4%, an expected life of nine years, expected volatility of 54.7% and no expected dividends. The pro forma weighted average fair value of options granted during the six months ended January 29, 2005 was $19.93 per share based on a risk-free interest rate of 3.6%, an expected life of six years, expected volatility of 58.7% and no expected dividends.

The following tables summarize the stock-based award activity during the six months ended January 28, 2006:

The aggregate intrinsic value for stock options and restricted stock in the preceding tables represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $24.38 as of January 28, 2006. These amounts represent the total pre-tax intrinsic value that would have been received by the holders of the stock-based awards had the awards been exercised and sold as of that date. During the six months ended January 28, 2006, the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $1.0 million. During the six months ended January 28, 2006, the total fair value of options and restricted stock vested was $1.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

The time vesting restricted shares granted during the six months ended January 28, 2006 were granted to employees and officers of the Company and vest ratably over a period of four years in December of each year. Upon each annual vesting, 50% of the newly vested shares (net of any shares used to satisfy tax withholding obligations) of the fiscal 2006 grants are restricted from sale or transferability (“restricted holdings”). The restrictions on sale or transferability of the restricted holdings will end at the earlier of; (a) the date the holder has accumulated restricted holdings of common stock having a value equal or greater than the holder’s annual base salary, (b) 90 days after termination of employment of the holder. The time vesting restricted stock carries voting and dividend rights and thus is considered issued and outstanding as of January 28, 2006.

The performance vesting restricted shares granted during the six months ended January 28, 2006 were granted to employees and officers of the Company and vest over a three year period in December of each year, if certain Company performance targets are met in each fiscal year. The performance targets are based on a combination of the Company’s fiscal year pre-tax income (adjusted for certain non-cash items) as a percentage of contract revenues and the Company’s fiscal year operating cash flow levels. Additional shares, up to a maximum of 283,005 over a three year period, will also vest if certain three year cumulative results exceed targeted performance measures. The vesting of these additional shares is dependent on the number of shares that vest based upon the fiscal year performance targets. Each years performance targets for these additional shares are based on a combination of the Company’s three year cumulative pre-tax income (adjusted for certain non-cash items) as a percentage of contract revenues and the Company’s cumulative three year operating cash flow levels.

As of January 28, 2006 the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options outstanding under the Plans is $1.6 million. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years. As of January 28, 2006 the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested time-based restricted stock and performance vesting restricted stock was $3.4 million and $6.0 million, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years and 3.0 years, respectively. If the performance goals are not met for performance vesting restricted stock, no compensation costs will be recognized for those shares and any compensation cost recognized previously for those shares will be reversed. Additionally, a maximum of 283,005 shares may vest over a three year period and a maximum of $6.0 million in additional compensation expense could be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.0 years if certain three-year performance goals are met.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We are a leading provider of specialty contracting services. These services are provided throughout the United States and include engineering, construction, maintenance and installation services to telecommunications providers, underground locating services to various utilities including telecommunications providers, and other construction and maintenance services to electric utilities and others. For the six months ended January 28, 2006, specialty contracting services related to the telecommunications industry, underground utility locating, and electric and other construction and maintenance to electric utilities and others contributed approximately 72.7%, 21.2%, and 6.1%, respectively, to our total revenues.

We conduct operations through our subsidiaries. Our revenues may fluctuate as a result of changes in the capital expenditure and maintenance budgets of our customers, and changes in the general level of construction activity. The capital expenditures and maintenance budgets of our telecommunications customers may be impacted by consumer demands on telecom providers, the introduction of new communication technologies, the physical maintenance needs of their infrastructure, the actions of the Federal Communications Commission, and general economic conditions.

A significant portion of our services are covered by multi-year master service agreements, and we are currently a party to over 200 of these agreements. Master service agreements generally have the following characteristics: contract periods of one or more years, and customer specified service requirements, such as discrete unit pricing for individual tasks. To the extent that such contracts specify exclusivity, this often has a number of exceptions, including the ability by the customer to issue to others work orders valued above a specified dollar limit, the self-performance of the work by the customer’s in house workforce if available, and the ability to use others when jointly placing facilities with another utility. In most cases, a customer may terminate these agreements for convenience with written notice.

The remainder of our services is provided pursuant to contracts for specific projects. Long-term contracts relate to specific projects with terms in excess of one year from the contract date. Short-term contracts generally are three to four months in duration. A portion of our contracts include retainage provisions under which 5% to 10% of the contract invoicing is withheld subject to project completion and acceptance by the customer.

We recognize revenue using the units of delivery or cost-to-cost measures of the percentage of completion method of accounting. Revenues from services provided to customers are recognized when services are performed. The majority of our contracts are based on units of delivery and revenue is recognized as each unit is completed. Revenue from other contracts is recognized using the cost-to-cost measures of the percentage of completion method and is based on the ratio of contract costs incurred to date to total estimated contract costs.

The following table summarizes our revenues from long-term contracts, including multi-year master service agreements, as a percentage of total revenue:


	% of Revenue						% of Revenue
	For the Three Months Ended						For the Six Months Ended
	January 28, 2006			January 29, 2005			January 28, 2006			January 29, 2005
Multi-year master service agreements		59.1	%		55.4	%		58.1	%		53.0	%
Other long-term contracts		18.3	%		32.5	%		21.2	%		35.1	%

Total long-term contracts		77.4	%		87.9	%		79.3	%		88.1	%

The percentage increase in revenue derived from multi-year service agreements is primarily due to agreements in place at the Prince Telecom Holdings, Inc. (“Prince” ) which was acquired in December 2005. Many of the Prince agreements are multi-year master service agreements which have increased the multi-year master service agreements as a percentage of total long-term contracts. The percentage decrease in total long-term contracts as a percentage of total contract revenue for the three and six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to prior year is primarily due to work performed during the current fiscal year related to the hurricanes that impacted the Southeastern United States in the second half of calendar 2005. Hurricane restoration work was not performed pursuant to long-term contracts.

A significant portion of our revenue comes from several large customers. The following table reflects the percentage of total revenue from customers contributing at least 2.5% of our total revenue in either the three or six month periods ending January 28, 2006 or January 29, 2005:


	For the Three Months Ended

Cost of earned revenues includes all the direct costs of providing services under our contracts, including those for construction personnel, subcontractors, operation of capital equipment (excluding depreciation), and insurance. For a majority of our contracts, our customers provide the materials that are to be used and we provide the personnel, tools, and equipment necessary to perform the installation and maintenance services. The materials supplied by our customers are not included in our revenue or costs of sales as the customer retains the financial and performance risk associated with the materials. We retain the risk, up to certain limits, for automobile liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, locate damage claims, and employee group health claims. Locate damage claims result from property and other damages arising in connection with our utility locating services. A change in claims experience or actuarial assumptions related to these risks could materially affect our results of operations.

General and administrative costs include all of our costs at the corporate level, as well as costs of our subsidiaries’ management personnel and administrative overhead. Our senior management, including senior managers of our subsidiaries, performs substantially all sales and marketing functions as part of their management responsibilities and, accordingly, we have not incurred material sales and marketing expenses.

Acquisitions

During December 2005, we acquired Prince for a purchase price of approximately $65.4 million. Prince installs and maintains customer premise equipment, including set top boxes and cable modems, for leading cable multiple system operators throughout the United States.

During September, 2004, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of RJE Telecom, Inc. (“RJE”) for a cash purchase price of approximately $9.8 million. RJE provides specialty contracting services primarily to telephone companies.

As part of our growth strategy, we may acquire companies that expand, complement, or diversify our business. We regularly review opportunities and periodically engage in discussions regarding possible acquisitions. Our ability to sustain our growth and maintain our competitive position may be affected by our ability to successfully integrate any businesses acquired.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and assumptions, including those related to revenue recognition for costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, allowance for doubtful accounts, self-insured claims liability, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, asset lives used in computing depreciation and amortization, including amortization of intangibles, and accounting for income taxes, contingencies and litigation. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 30, 2005 for further information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Total contract revenues	$	244.1		100.0	%	$	224.5		100.0	%	$	19.6		8.7	%

Revenues increased $19.6 million, or 8.7% in the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to the three months ended January 29, 2005. Of this increase, $14.8 million was attributable to an increase in specialty contracting services provided to telecommunications companies, an increase of $2.7 million in underground utility locating services revenues, and an increase of $2.1 million attributable to electric utilities and other construction and maintenance services revenues. Prince, acquired in December 2005, contributed $11.7 million of revenues from telecommunications services during the three months ended January 28, 2006. The following table presents revenue by type of customer excluding the amounts attributed to the Prince acquisition:

Total contract revenues	$	244.1	$	224.5	$	19.6		8.7	%

Excluding revenue from Prince for the three month period ended January 28, 2006, revenues from telecommunications services for the three months ended January 28, 2006 were $171.3 million compared to $168.2 million for the three months ended January 29, 2005, an increase of 1.9%. This increase in telecommunications service revenues was primarily attributable to approximately $30.2 million in work performed during the quarter ended January 28, 2006 related to the hurricanes that impacted the Southeastern United States during the later part of calendar 2005 and from revenues from new contracts with existing customers. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in revenues from one of our significant customers engaged in a fiber deployment project and due to a decrease in revenues from another significant customer who is completing an upgrade project to their network.

Total revenues from underground utility locating services for the three months ended January 28, 2006 were $49.2 million compared to $46.5 million for the three months ended January 29, 2005, an increase of 5.8%. This increase is primarily the result of additional work performed for existing customers.

Our total revenues from electric utilities and other construction and maintenance services increased $2.1 million, or 21.2% for the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to the three months ended January 29, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to work pursuant to a specific customer contract that commenced in the later part of fiscal 2005, which we completed during the quarter ended January 28, 2006, and additional work performed for existing customers.

The following table presents information regarding total revenues by type of customer for the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005:

Total contract revenues	$	505.0		100.0	%	$	487.7		100.0	%	$	17.3		3.6	%

Revenues increased $17.3 million, or 3.6% in the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to the six months ended January 29, 2005. Revenues increased $2.0 million as a result of an increase in specialty contracting services provided to telecommunications companies, an increase of $6.0 million in underground utility locating services revenues and an increase of $9.3 million attributable to electric utilities and other construction and maintenance services revenues. Prince, acquired in December 2005 and RJE, acquired in September 2004, contributed $11.7 million and $25.2 million, respectively, of revenues from telecommunications services during the six months ended January 28, 2006. The following table presents revenue by type of customer excluding the amounts attributed to the Prince and RJE acquisitions:


	For the Six Months Ended
	January 28,		January 29,		Increase			Increase

Total contract revenues	$	505.0	$	487.7	$	17.3			3.6	%

Excluding revenue from acquired companies for each six month period, revenues from telecommunications services for the six months ended January 28, 2006 were $330.3 million compared to $346.5 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005, a decrease of 4.7%. This decrease in telecommunications service revenues was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from one of our significant customers who is completing an upgrade project to their network, and due to a decrease in revenue from a significant customer engaged in a fiber deployment project.The decrease was partially offset by a net increase of $38.2 million of hurricane work performed in the current six month period as compared to the same prior year period, and from revenues from new contracts with existing customers.

Total revenues from underground utility locating services for the six months ended January 28, 2006 were $107.0 million compared to $101.0 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005, an increase of 6.0%. This increase is primarily the result of additional work performed for existing customers and work performed related to the hurricanes that impacted the Southeastern United States during the later part of calendar 2005.

Our total revenues from electric utilities and other construction and maintenance services increased $9.3 million, or 43.3% for the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to the six months ended January 29, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to work pursuant to a specific customer contract that commenced in the later part of fiscal 2005, which we completed during the six months ended January 28, 2006, and additional work performed for existing customers.

Costs of Earned Revenues.Costs of earned revenues, including the results of Prince since the acquisition date, increased $21.0 million to $203.0 million in the three months ended January 28, 2006 from $182.0 million in the three months ended January 29, 2005. The primary components of this dollar increase were direct labor and subcontractor costs taken together, equipment and other direct costs, and direct materials which increased $12.9 million, $6.4 million, and $1.7 million, respectively, due to higher levels of operations during the period. As a percentage of contract revenues, costs of earned revenues increased 2.1% for the three months ended January 28, 2006, as compared to the three months ended January 29, 2005. Included in this increase was 1.3% for equipment and other direct costs primarily as a result of increased vehicle rentals related to hurricane work performed, increased overall insurance costs under our casualty insurance program, and increased fuel costs for our vehicles and equipment. Direct labor and subcontracted labor combined contributed 0.5% of the increase primarily as a result of storm work performed in Southeastern United States which is more labor intensive than other projects. Direct materials contributed 0.3% to the increase due to an increase in the number of projects for which we provided materials to the customer compared to the same period in the prior year.

Costs of earned revenues, including the results of Prince since the acquisition date, increased $25.7 million to $416.3 million in the six months ended January 28, 2006 from $390.7 million in the six months ended January 29, 2005. The primary components of this dollar increase were equipment and other direct costs, direct labor and subcontractor costs taken together, and direct materials which increased $12.4 million, $10.6 million, and $2.6 million, respectively, due to higher levels of operations during the six months ended January 28, 2006,. As a percentage of contract revenues, costs of earned revenues increased 2.3% for the six months ended January 28, 2006, as compared to the six months ended January 29, 2005. Increases for equipment and other direct costs is primarily as a result of increased vehicle rentals related to hurricane work performed, increased overall insurance costs as a result of higher premiums and loss development activity in our casualty insurance program, and increased fuel costs for our vehicles and equipment, all of which contributed 1.9% of the increase. Increases in direct materials accounted for 0.4% of the increase due to an increase in the number of projects for which we provided materials to the customer compared to the same period last year. The remaining portion of the change is comprised of increases in direct labor and subcontracted labor as a result of additional labor costs related to storm work performed in Southeastern United States which is more labor intensive than other projects.

General and Administrative Expenses.General and administrative expenses increased $0.2 million to $19.2 million for the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $18.9 million in the three months ended January 29, 2005. General and administrative expenses increased $1.7 million to $38.6 million for the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $36.9 million in the six months ended January 29, 2005. The increase in total general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods was primarily a result of an increase in stock-based compensation expenses and from general and administrative costs of Prince, which was acquired in December 2005. These dollar amount increases were partially offset by improved bad debt experience during the three and six months ended January 28, 2006 compared the three and six months ended January 29, 2005. The total amount of stock-based compensation expense for the three and six month periods ended January 28, 2006 was $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, as compared to $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six month periods ended January 29, 2005, respectively. The increase in stock-based compensation resulted from applying SFAS No. 123(R) to our unvested stock options outstanding and restricted stock awards granted to employees and officers in December 2005 (see Note 14 in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Prior to SFAS No. 123(R) our stock-based awards primarily consisted of stock options, for which we did not recognize expense as we accounted for stock-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), we recognize compensation expense over the vesting period for stock options. Our restricted stock grants are also accounted for under SFAS No. 123(R) and we have recognized compensation expense based on the fair value at the date of grant over the requisite service periods of the awards.

General and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of contract revenues to 7.9% in the three months ended January 28, 2006 from 8.4% in the three months ended January 29, 2005. The decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percent of contract revenue for the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to January 29, 2005 is a result of increased revenues on the relatively stable general and administrative costs, offset in part by the impact of the stock based compensation expense during the period. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of contract revenues remained the same at 7.6% in the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005. Although general and administrative expenses as a percentage of contract revenues in the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005 were consistent, the six months ended January 28, 2006 included $1.5 million in additional stock based compensation expense due to implementation of SFAS No. 123(R). Offsetting the impact of the stock-based compensation expense was increased revenues on the relatively stable general and administrative costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased to $12.2 million in the three months ended January 28, 2006 from $12.8 million in the three months ended January 29, 2005 and decreased as a percentage of contract revenues to 5.0% in the three months ended January 28, 2006 from 5.7% in the three months ended January 29, 2005. Depreciation and amortization decreased to $23.5 million in the six months ended January 28, 2006 from $24.1 million in the six months ended January 29, 2005 and decreased as a percentage of contract revenues to 4.7 % in the six months ended January 28, 2006 from 4.9% in the six months ended January 29, 2005. The dollar amount of the decreases is primarily due to fixed assets becoming fully depreciated during the periods. This decrease was partially offset by the addition of Prince in December 2005. The percentage decreases for both the three and six month periods are a result of increased revenues on decreased depreciation costs.

Interest Income.Interest income increased to $0.5 million for the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended January 29, 2005. Interest income increased to $1.2 million for the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $0.4 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. The increase is primarily related to higher interest rates and greater levels of cash on hand during the three and six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Interest Expense.Interest expense increased to $4.0 million for the three months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended January 29, 2005. Interest expense increased to $4.9 million for the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. The increase is due to the issuance of $150.0 million of 8.125% senior subordinated notes (“Notes”) and borrowings from our Credit Facility (see Note 10 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Income Taxes.

The following table presents our income tax expense and effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005 (dollars in millions):


	For the Three Months Ended						For the Six Months Ended
	January 28, 2006			January 29, 2005			January 28, 2006			January 29, 2005
Income taxes	$	2.7		$	4.8		$	9.7		$	15.0
Effective income tax rate		40.7	%		39.5	%		39.9	%		39.5	%

Variations in our tax rate are primarily attributable to the impact of non-deductible and non taxable items for tax purposes in relation to a lower pre-tax income during fiscal 2006.

Net Income. Net income was $3.9 million and $14.6 million in the three and six months ended January 28, 2006, respectively, as compared to $7.4 million and $23.0 million in the three and six months ended January 29, 2005, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital requirements. We primarily use capital to purchase equipment and to maintain sufficient levels of working capital in order to support our contractual commitments to customers. Our working capital needs are influenced by the level of operations during the period and generally increase with higher levels of revenues. Additionally, our working capital requirements are influenced by the timing of the collection of balances outstanding from our customers for work previously performed. The Company believes that none of its significant customers are experiencing significant financial difficulty as of January 28, 2006. Our sources of cash have historically been operating activities, debt, equity offerings, bank borrowings, and proceeds from the sale of idle and surplus equipment and real property. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $22.4 million at January 28, 2006 compared to $83.1 million at July 30, 2005.


	For the Six Months Ended
	January 28, 2006			January 29, 2005
	(dollars in millions)
Net cash flows:
Provided by operating activities	$	37.6		$	58.5
Used in investing activities	$	(89.2	)	$	(39.1	)
(Used in) provided by financing activities	$	(9.0	)	$	1.0

Cash from operating activities.During the six months ended January 28, 2006, net cash provided by operating activities was $37.6 million compared to $58.5 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. Net cash provided by operating activities was comprised primarily of net income, adjusted for the gain on disposal of assets and non-cash items. Non-cash items during the six months ended January 28, 2006 primarily included depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes, and gain on disposal of assets. Changes in working capital and changes in other long term assets and liability items combined used $1.0 million of operating cash flow during the six month periods ended January 28, 2006 as compared to provided $7.6 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. Components of these working capital changes which used operating cash flow for the six months ended January 28, 2006 were increases in net unbilled revenue of $0.6 million due to current period operating levels, decreases in accounts payable of $5.1 million attributable to the timing of receipt and payment of invoices, decreases in income taxes payable of $12.1 million due to the timing of our quarterly income tax payments, and an increase in other current assets and other assets of $3.5 million, combined, primarily resulting from increases in prepaid insurance and other prepaid costs. Components of these working capital changes which provided operating cash flow for the six months ended January 28, 2006 included decreases in accounts receivable of $17.6 million attributable to collection and billing activities, and an increase in accrued self-insured claims and other liabilities of $2.7 million attributable to increased operating levels.

Based on quarterly revenues, days sales outstanding for accounts receivable, net was 58.7 days as of January 28, 2006 compared to 46.9 days at January 29, 2005. Based on quarterly revenues, days sales outstanding for costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, net was 25.2 days as of January 28, 2006 compared to 21.8 days at January 29, 2005. The increase in days sales outstanding for accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, net is due to slower payment patterns from significant customers.

Cash used in investing activities. For the six months ended January 28, 2006, net cash used in investing activities was $89.2 million as compared to $39.1 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. During the six months ended January 28, 2006, we paid $65.4 million in connection with the acquisition of Prince. During the six months ended January 29, 2005, we paid $9.8 million in connection with the acquisition of RJE and received escrowed funds in connection with the First South acquisition. For the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005, investing activities included capital expenditures of $24.8 million, including approximately $7.0 million paid during the six months ended January 28, 2006 that was accrued as of July 30, 2005, and $32.5 million, respectively. These amounts were offset in part by $1.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively, in proceeds from the sale of idle assets. Restricted cash increased $0.3 million during the six months ended January 28, 2006 as compared to an increase in restricted cash of $0.9 million during the six months ended January 29, 2005 related to funding provisions of our employee health plan. Net proceeds from the sale and purchases of short-term investments contributed were $0.6 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005, while there were no net proceeds during the six months ended January 28, 2006.

Cash (used in) provided by financing activities. For the six months ended January 28, 2006, net cash used in financing activities was $9.0 million compared to cash provided of $1.0 million for the six months ended January 29, 2005. Proceeds from long-term debt were $248.0 million in the six months ended January 28, 2006 and consisted of $98.0 million in borrowings on our revolving Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), of which $66.0 million was subsequently repaid, and the issuance of the Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million. The Notes and Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of our subsidiaries. In connection with the Credit Agreement borrowings and Notes, we incurred $4.8 million in debt issuance costs. The proceeds of the outstanding debt were used to repurchase 8.76 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $186.2 million, including fees and expenses. Approximately $0.5 million of fees for debt issuance costs and tender offer costs were accrued and unpaid at January 28, 2006. During the quarter ended January 28, 2006, we withheld 10,542 shares of restricted stock that vested to certain officer’s of the Company during the period and we remitted approximately $0.2 million to the Internal Revenue Service to satisfy the required tax withholdings. Additionally, we made principal payments of $2.2 million on our capital leases and other notes payable and had proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $2.0 million for the six months ended January 28, 2006. For the six months ended January 29, 2005, debt payments of $2.3 million were partially offset by the proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options of $3.3 million.

The indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants that restrict our ability to make certain payments, including the payment of dividends, incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, create liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, merge or consolidate with another entity, sell assets, and enter into transactions with affiliates. As of January 28, 2006, we were in compliance with all covenants and conditions under the Notes.

In connection with issuance of the Notes, we entered into an amendment (“the Amendment”) to our Credit Agreement. After giving effect to the Amendment, we are required to (i) maintain a consolidated leverage ratio of not greater than 3.00 to 1.0., (ii) maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.75 to 1.00, as measured at the end of each fiscal quarter and (iii) maintain consolidated tangible net worth, which shall be calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter, of not less than $50.0 million plus 50% of consolidated net income (if positive) from September 8, 2005 to the date of computation plus 75% of the equity issuances made from September 8, 2005 to the date of computation. As of January 28, 2006, we had $32.0 million of borrowings and $44.7 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement. The outstanding letters of credit are primarily issued to insurance companies as part of our self-insurance program. At January 28, 2006, we were in compliance with all financial covenants and conditions under the Credit Agreement.

Certain subsidiaries have outstanding obligations under real estate leases and equipment and vehicle financing arrangements. The obligations are payable in monthly installments, expiring at various dates through November 2023.

Contractual Obligation.Our various contractual obligations and funding commitments related to our long-term debt have changed since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 30, 2005 as described above for the Notes and borrowings under the Credit Agreement and in Note 10, Long-Term Debt in the accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Related party transactions.We lease administrative offices from entities related to officers of certain of our subsidiaries. The total expense under these arrangements for the three months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005 was $0.3 million. The total expense under these arrangements for the six months ended January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005 were $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Sufficiency of Capital Resources.We believe that our capital resources, together with existing cash balances, are sufficient to meet our financial obligations, including lease commitments, and to support our normal replacement of equipment at our current level of business for at least the next twelve months. Our future operating results and cash flows may be affected by a number of factors including our success in bidding on future contracts and our ability to manage controllable costs effectively. To the extent we seek to grow by acquisitions that involve consideration other than our stock, our capital requirements may increase.

Backlog.Our backlog is comprised of the uncompleted portion of services to be performed under job-specific contracts and the estimated value of future services that we expect to provide under long-term requirements contracts, including master service agreements. In many instances our customers are not contractually committed to specific volumes of services under a contract. However, the customer is obligated once the services are requested by the customer and provided by us. Many of our contracts are multi-year agreements, and we include in our backlog the amount of services projected to be performed over the terms of the contracts based on our historical relationships with customers and our experience in procurements of this nature. For certain multi-year projects relating to fiber deployments for one of our significant customers, we have included in the January 28, 2006 backlog amounts relating to anticipated work in calendar years 2006 and 2007. Previously for these projects, we included in backlog only those amounts for work through calendar 2005. These fiber deployment projects, when initially installed, are not required for the day-to-day provision of services by our customer. Consequently, these programs have generally been subject to more uncertainty, as compared to those of our other customers, with regards to activity levels. We have taken our current approach to the backlog for these fiber deployment projects as a result of the customer’s expressed continued commitment to the program and our having recently agreed to two year pricing. Our estimates of a customer’s requirements during a particular future period may not be accurate at any point in time.

Our backlog at January 28, 2006 and July 30, 2005 was $1.55 billion and $1.14 billion, respectively. We expect to complete approximately 51.3% of our current backlog during the next twelve months.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Our revenues are affected by seasonality. Most of our work is performed outdoors and as a result, our results of operations are impacted by extended periods of inclement weather. Generally, inclement weather occurs during the winter season which falls during our second and third quarters of the fiscal year. In addition, a disproportionate percentage of total holidays fall within our second quarter, which impacts the number of available workdays.

In addition, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience quarterly variations in revenues and net income as a result of other factors, including:

	•		the timing and volume of customers’ construction and maintenance projects,

	•		budgetary spending patterns of customers,

	•		the commencement or termination of master service agreements and other long-term agreements with customers,

	•		costs incurred to support growth internally or through acquisitions,

	•		fluctuation in results of operations caused by acquisitions,

	•		changes in mix of customers, contracts, and business activities, and

	•		fluctuations in insurance expense due to changes in claims experience and actuarial assumptions.

Accordingly, operating results for any fiscal period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any subsequent fiscal period.

Special Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “forecast,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Such statements may include, but may not be limited to, the anticipated outcome of contingent events, including litigation, projections of revenues, income or loss, capital expenditures, plans for future operations, growth and acquisitions, financial needs or plans and the availability of financing, and plans relating to our services including backlog, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections. Forward—looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results in the future to differ materially from the results projected or implied in any forward-looking statements contained in this report. Such risks and uncertainties include: business and economic conditions in the telecommunications industry affecting our customers, the adequacy of our insurance and other reserves and allowances for doubtful accounts, whether the carrying value of our assets may be impaired, whether our recent acquisition can be effectively integrated into our existing operations, the impact of any future acquisitions, the anticipated outcome of contingent events, including litigation, liquidity needs and the availability of financing. Such forward looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We considered the provision of Financial Reporting Release No. 48, “Disclosure of Accounting Policies for Derivative Financial Instruments and Derivative Commodity Instruments, and Disclosure of Quantitative and Qualitative Information about Market Risk Inherent in Derivative Financial Instruments, Other Financial Instruments and Derivative Commodity Instruments” in determining our market risk. We had no significant holdings of derivative financial or commodity instruments at January 28, 2006. A review of our other financial instruments and risk exposures at that date indicated that we had exposure to interest rate risk. At January 28, 2006, we performed sensitivity analyses to assess the potential effect of this risk. As of January 28, 2006, variable rate borrowings totaled approximately $32.0 million under our Credit Agreement and approximately $1.4 million of variable rate capital leases. Assuming a 100 basis point change in prevailing interest rates, our annual interest cost would change by approximately $0.3 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer each concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15(d)—15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), that occurred during the quarter ended January 28, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In making our assessment of changes in internal control over financial reporting as of January 28, 2006, we have excluded Prince Telecom Holdings, Inc., which we acquired on December 16, 2005. These operations represent approximately 11.9% and 6.4% of our total assets and total liabilities at January 28, 2006, respectively, and approximately 2.3% of our total contract revenues for the six months ended January 28, 2006.
