Fourth Quarter 2025 Results Compared with Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

Residential & SMB - Glo Fiber Expansion Markets revenue increased $6.5 million, or 39.0%, primarily due to 36.9% growth in data revenue generating units (“RGUs”).

Residential & SMB - Incumbent Broadband Markets revenue decreased $1.7 million, or 4.0%, primarily due to lower video and data revenues from a 14.8% decline in video RGUs and a 2.4% decline in data average revenue per unit (“ARPU”). Broadband data subscribers grew 0.6%.

Commercial Fiber revenue increased $2.0 million or, 10.8%, primarily due to an unfavorable deferred revenue adjustment in the fourth quarter 2024.

RLEC & Other revenue decreased $0.5 million, or 7.4%, primarily due to lower data service line (“DSL”) revenue from a 24.4% decline of DSL RGUs, partially due to customers migrating to our broadband data service in the recently constructed passings supported by government grants.

Cost of services decreased $1.1 million, or 3.3%, primarily due to decreases in network payroll due to synergy savings realized from the Horizon acquisition and higher capitalized labor from a strong quarter of fiber construction.

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $1.3 million, or 4.5%, primarily due to decreases in general and administrative payroll due to synergy savings realized from the Horizon acquisition, lower bad debt and stock compensation expense, partially offset by increases in operating taxes.

Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense decreased $0.7 million, or 81.6%. Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense in 2024 related primarily to costs incurred to effect the Horizon Transaction and integration expenses during the post-acquisition period.

Depreciation and amortization increased $4.4 million, or 15.7%, primarily due to the Company’s expansion of its Glo Fiber network.

Interest expense increased $3.5 million, or 85.0%, primarily due to an increase in the Company’s outstanding debt.

Full Year 2025 Results Compared with Full Year 2024 Results

Shentel acquired Horizon on April 1, 2024, and consequently, results for the year ended December 31, 2024 included nine months of Horizon revenue, whereas the comparable year ended December 31, 2025 included twelve months of Horizon revenue. Information about year over year variances noted below includes the results of the acquired Horizon markets during the first three months of 2025 and explanations of the remaining consolidated changes.

Residential & SMB - Glo Fiber Expansion Markets³ revenue increased $24.7 million, or 42.7%. Shentel recognized $0.7 million of revenues earned in the acquired Horizon markets in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining increase of $24.0 million was primarily due to 42.0% growth in data RGUs and 16.3% growth in video RGUs associated with the Company’s investment in expanded geographies for Glo Fiber.

Residential & SMB - Incumbent Broadband Markets⁴ revenue decreased $5.1 million, or 2.9%. Shentel recognized $1.7 million of revenues earned in the acquired Horizon markets in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining decrease of $6.8 million was primarily due to lower video and data revenues from a 14.5% decline in video RGUs, lower Universal Service Fund revenues and a 1.6% decline in data ARPU.

Commercial Fiber revenue increased $9.3 million, or 13.2%. Shentel recognized $9.9 million of revenues earned in the acquired Horizon markets in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining decrease of $0.6 million was primarily due to non-cash deferred revenue adjustments for a carrier customer and early termination fees earned in the prior year.

RLEC & Other revenue increased $1.0 million, or 3.9%. Shentel recognized $2.9 million of revenues earned in the acquired Horizon markets in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining decrease of $1.9 million was primarily due to lower DSL revenue from a 19.8% decline of DSL RGUs, partially due to customers migrating to our broadband data service in the recently constructed passings supported by government grants.

Cost of services increased $2.0 million, or 1.6%. Shentel incurred $7.6 million of costs incurred in the acquired Horizon markets in the first quarter of 2025. The remaining decrease of $5.6 million was primarily due to decreases in network payroll and line costs driven by synergy savings and decreased programming expenses associated with the declines in video RGUs.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $3.0 million, or 2.6%. Shentel incurred $3.2 million of selling, general and administrative costs incurred in the acquired Horizon markets in first quarter of 2025. The remaining decrease of $0.2 million was primarily due to decreases in employee compensation, professional fees driven by synergy savings and lower bad debt, partially offset by increases in operating taxes and advertising costs.

Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense decreased $13.3 million, or 91.9%. Restructuring, integration and acquisition expense in 2024 related primarily to costs incurred to effect the Horizon Transaction and integration expenses during the post-acquisition period.

Depreciation and amortization increased $32.8 million, or 33.2%. Shentel incurred $9.2 million of depreciation and amortization related to the tangible and intangible assets acquired in the Horizon Transaction during the first quarter of 2025. The remaining increase of $23.6 million was due to the Company’s expansion of its Glo Fiber network and a $7.4 million write-off of inventory assets no longer expected to be used.

Interest expense increased by $9.5 million, or 59.6% primarily due to an increase in the Company’s outstanding debt.

Other Information

Capital expenditures were $358.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $319.1 million in 2024. The $39.8 million increase in capital expenditures was primarily driven by government-subsidized network expansion projects in previously unserved areas of Incumbent Broadband Markets.

The Company received $62.5 million and $19.2 million in government grant cash reimbursements during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Shentel Issuer LLC (“Shentel Issuer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shentel, closed its inaugural offering of $567.4 million aggregate principal amount of secured fiber network revenue term notes, consisting of $489.1 million 5.64% Series 2025-1, Class A-2 term notes and $78.3 million 6.03% Series 2025-1, Class B term notes, each with an anticipated repayment date in December 2030 (collectively, the “ABS Notes”). As part of the same Indenture and fiber network assets and related customer contracts that govern and secure the ABS Notes, Shentel Issuer entered into a revolving $175.0 million variable funding note facility (the “VFN”) due December 2029. Shentel Issuer entered into a $25 million delay draw Liquidity Funding Note facility (the “LFN”, together with the Class A-2 Notes, Class B notes, and the VFN, the “ABS Notes”) with Bank of America. The LFN is subject to the same collateral and covenant framework, including pro-forma leverage and debt service coverage ratios as defined in the ABS Indenture. Shentel Issuer may draw on the LFN solely for the purpose of funding amounts due and payable for certain Priority of Payments as defined in the ABS Indenture and when restricted cash funds required by ABS Indenture are insufficient. The Company had no borrowings under the VFN and LFN at Closing and as of December 31, 2025. Concurrently, Shentel Broadband Operations LLC (“Shentel Broadband”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, entered into a new $175.0 million Revolving Credit Facility (the “RCF”) due December 2030. Shentel used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the ABS Notes and the RCF to repay the outstanding principal on the Company’s existing debt.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s total available liquidity was $234.9 million, consisting of (i) cash and cash equivalents totaling $27.3 million; (ii) restricted cash as required by the ABS indenture totaling $20.9 million (iii) $92.8 million of availability under the Shentel Broadband’s RCF; (iv) $44.3 million under Shentel Issuer’s VFN; and (v) an aggregate of $49.6 million remaining reimbursements available under government grants, subject to fulfilling the terms of the underlying agreements. In addition, the Company has $130.7 million of VFN commitments that are not available to draw as of December 31, 2025. The available capacity of the VFN will increase based on the secured fiber network revenue growth from the ABS Entities multiplied by (i) a margin as defined in the ABS Indenture and (ii) 6.25x multiple.

On February 23, 2026, the Company announced a reduction in force of approximately 10% of its employees to align the business with the end of the Glo Fiber construction phase that is expected to be substantially complete by end of 2026. Employee departure dates will be staggered with the largest impact in the fourth quarter of 2026. The Company expects to save approximately $12.3 million annually beginning in 2027 with approximately half of the savings impacting operating expenses and half impacting capitalized labor that is included in capital expenditures. The Company expects to incur approximately $3.1 million in restructuring costs to achieve these savings.

2026 Financial Outlook

The Company initiates its 2026 financial guidance.

(dollars in millions)	Guidance Range	Year Ended December 31, 2025		% Change 2025 to 2026 Midpoint
Total Revenue	$370 - $377	$	358	4.4	%
Adjusted EBITDA¹	$131 - $136	$	119	12.1	%

^{1 Further clarification and explanation of this non-GAAP measure can be found in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this release below.}

The 2026 financial guidance presented above does not reflect any assumptions regarding the potential impacts of the evolving tariff environment and disruption and uncertainty caused by a U.S. government shutdown, including uncertainty regarding the timing of federal funding and grant payments. The Company does not provide a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA forecasts (which represents a forecast of a non-GAAP financial measure) because it cannot predict the special items that could arise without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as (loss) income from continuing operations calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for the impact of depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, other income (expense), net, interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), stock compensation expense, transaction costs related to acquisition and disposition events (including professional advisory fees, integration costs, and related compensatory matters), restructuring expense, tax on equity award vesting and exercise events, and other non-comparable items. A reconciliation of Loss from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA is provided below herein.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, divided by revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental measures of performance to evaluate operating effectiveness and assess its ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth and the scalability of the Company’s business growth strategy. Adjusted EBITDA is also a significant performance measure used by the Company in its incentive compensation programs. The Company believes that the exclusion of the expense and income items eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provides management and investors a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s core operating results by excluding items that are not comparable across reporting periods or that do not otherwise relate to the Company’s ongoing operations. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results. However, use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as analytical tools has limitations, and investors and others should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.

^{(1) Homes and businesses are considered passed (“passings”) if we can connect them to our network without further extending the distribution system. Passings is an estimate based upon the best available information. Passings will vary among video, broadband data and voice services.}
^{(2) Penetration is calculated by dividing the number of RGUs by the number of passings or available homes, as appropriate.}
^{(3) Total fiber miles are measured by taking the number of fiber strands in a cable and multiplying that number by the route distance. For example, a 10 mile route with 144 fiber strands would equal 1,440 fiber miles.}
