Forward-Looking Statements and Non-
GAAP Information
Forward-Looking Statements and Non-
GAAP Information
 Fiscal 2011 second quarter results are unaudited. This presentation contains “forward-looking
 statements” which are statements relating to future events, future financial performance,
 strategies, expectations, and competitive environment. Words such as “believe,” “expect,”
 “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “project” and similar
 expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward looking statements. You
 should not read forward looking statements as a guarantee of future performance or results.
 They will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether or at what time such performance or
 results will be achieved. Forward looking statements are based on information available at the
 time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief at that time with respect
 to future events. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
 performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward
 looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not
 limited to factors described under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on
 Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2010, and other risks outlined in the Company’s periodic
 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The forward-looking statements in
 this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Except as
 required by law, the Company may not update forward-looking statements even though its
 situation may change in the future.
 This presentation includes certain “Non-GAAP” financial measures as defined by SEC rules. As
 required by the SEC we have provided a reconciliation of those measures to the most directly
 comparable GAAP measures on the Regulation G slides included on slides 12 through 14 of this
 presentation.

Appendix: Regulation G Disclosure
Amounts may not foot due to rounding.
  (a) Non-GAAP adjustments in Q2-11 reflect revenues from businesses acquired during Q2-11. Non-GAAP adjustments in Q4-10 result from the Company’s 52/53
 week fiscal year. The Q4-10 Non-GAAP adjustments reflect the impact of the additional week in Q4-10 and are calculated by dividing contract revenues by 14 weeks.
 The result, representing one week of contract revenues, is subtracted from the GAAP-contract revenues to calculate 13 weeks of revenue for Q4-10 on a Non-GAAP
 basis for comparison purposes. The Non-GAAP adjustments in Q3-09, Q2-09, and Q1-09 reflect storm restoration revenues recognized during those periods.
 (b) Year-over-year growth (decline) percentage is calculated as follows: (i) revenues in the quarterly period less (ii) revenues in the comparative prior year quarter
 period; divided by (ii) revenues in the comparative prior year quarter period.
