Dycom Industries, Inc. (NYSE: DY) has reported a solid performance for the fiscal 2025 second quarter, reflecting robust growth and financial stability. Contract revenues for the quarter ended July 27, 2024, came in at $1.203 billion, marking a 15.5% increase compared to $1.042 billion in the same quarter of the previous year. This growth is partly attributable to organic revenue growth of 9.2%, excluding the $65.9 million from acquired businesses not owned in the prior year. The company’s Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA also saw a significant rise, reaching $158.3 million, or 13.2% of contract revenues, up from $130.8 million, or 12.6%, in the year-ago quarter.
On a GAAP basis, Dycom’s net income increased to $68.4 million, or $2.32 per diluted share, compared to $60.2 million, or $2.03 per diluted share, in the previous year’s second quarter. The Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income was $72.5 million, or $2.46 per diluted share, indicating a strong bottom-line performance.
Additionally, during this quarter, Dycom amended its credit agreement to expand term loan capacity and extend the maturity to January 2029.
