         DYCOM ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2003 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS AND PROVIDES
                    GUIDANCE FOR THE NEXT TWO FISCAL QUARTERS


Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, June 2, 2003--Dycom Industries, Inc. (NYSE Symbol:
"DY") announced its results today for the third quarter ended April 26, 2003.
The Company reported net income for the quarter ended April 26, 2003 of $2.8
million, or $0.06 per common share diluted, on total contract revenues of $139.7
million versus contract revenues of $169.8 million for the quarter ended April
27, 2002. This represents a year over year decrease of 17.7% in total contract
revenues. On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, Dycom's
reported net income for the quarter ended April 27, 2002 was $7.7 million, or
$0.17 per common share. Earnings per common share for the period ending April
27, 2002, excluding a nonrecurring gain of $0.02 per common share due to the
settlement of a federal employment tax issue relating to prior years, was $0.15
per common share.

For the nine months ended April 26, 2003 net income was $5.8 million, or $0.12
per common share. On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis,
Dycom's reported net loss for the nine months ended April 27, 2002 was $66.2
million, or $1.50 per common share. Net income for the nine-month period ending
April 27, 2002, excluding a nonrecurring gain of $0.02 per common share due to
the settlement of a federal employment tax issue relating to prior years and the
$1.97 per common share charge for the cumulative effect of the adoption of SFAS
No.142 relating to the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets, was
$19.8 million, or $0.45 per common share.

In evaluating the operating performance of its business for the three and nine
month periods ended April 27, 2002, Dycom's management excluded certain gains
and charges that are required by GAAP. The Company believes that presentation of
net income and earnings per share excluding these items is beneficial to
investors due to their unusual nature. Please see attached table for
reconciliation of these financial measures to GAAP.

Dycom also announced its outlook for the remainder of fiscal 2003 and the first
quarter of fiscal 2004. The Company currently expects revenue for the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2003 to range from $150.0 million to $165.0 million and
earnings per share to range from $0.15 to $0.20. For the first quarter of fiscal
2004, the Company currently expects revenue to range from $150.0 million to
$165.0 million and earnings per share to range from $0.16 to $0.21.

A Tele-Conference call to review the Company's results and address its outlook
will be hosted at 9:00 a.m. (ET), Tuesday, June 3, 2003; Call 888-273-9890
(United States) or 612-332-0228 (International) and request "Dycom

(1)   In the first quarter fiscal 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142,
      "Goodwill and Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization
      of goodwill and instead requires that goodwill be tested for impairment.
      Because we adopted these statements effective with the beginning of fiscal
      2002, we do not have goodwill amortization in either year.
