Operating Metrics (unaudited) Notes to Accompany Key Operating Metrics (1) In Q1 2021, the Company launched a multi-year fiber build plan to upgrade 1.6 million passings or 70% of our service area to fiber Gig+ capable services. As of March 31, 2023, 53,858 of the minimum targeted 225,000 passings for 2023 were upgraded to FttP and total fiber passings were ~1,062,518 or 40% of the Company's service area. (2) The sale of the non-core Ohio operations resulted in a reduction of approximately 5,658 DSL/Copper passings and 3,560 DSL/Copper broadband connections in the first quarter of 2022. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted to reflect the sale. (3) The sale of the net assets of our Kansas City operations in the fourth quarter of 2022 resulted in a reduction of approximately 135,144 DSL/Copper passings, 3,325 fiber broadband connections, 10,945 DSL/Copper broadband connections, 6,670 consumer voice connections, 13,425 video connections and 1,415 on-net buildings. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted to reflect the sale. (4) Fiber broadband revenue includes revenue from our Kansas City operations of approximately $0.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and approximately $0.5 million for each of the quarters ended March 31, 2021 through September 30, 2022. Amounts have not been adjusted to reflect the sale. (5) Passings counts are estimates of single family units, multi-dwelling units, and multi-tenant units within consumer, small business and enterprise. These counts are based upon the information available at this time and are subject to updates as additional information becomes available. (6) When a passing is both fiber and DSL/Copper capable it is counted as a fiber passing. (7) Consumer Broadband net adds and churn have been normalized to reflect the divestitures of our Kansas City and Ohio operations. 2021 2022 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 FY Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 FY Q1 2023 Consumer Broadband Revenue by Service Type ($ in thousands) Fiber Broadband Revenue (4) $ 14,120 $ 15,010 $ 15,422 $ 16,150 $ 60,702 $ 17,242 $ 19,218 $ 21,558 $ 24,016 $ 82,034 $ 26,136 Copper and Other Broadband Revenue 51,633 52,967 53,182 50,833 208,615 48,669 48,374 48,083 44,986 190,112 41,825 Total Consumer Broadband Revenue by Service Type $ 65,753 $ 67,977 $ 68,604 $ 66,983 $ 269,317 $ 65,911 $ 67,592 $ 69,641 $ 69,002 $ 272,146 $ 67,961 Consumer Voice Connections (3) 362,384 352,835 341,135 328,849 328,849 316,634 306,458 294,441 276,779 276,779 267,509 Video Connections (3) 73,986 70,795 66,971 63,447 63,447 58,812 55,225 51,339 35,039 35,039 32,426 Fiber route network miles (long-haul, metro and FttP) 47,364 48,727 50,405 52,402 52,402 54,239 56,093 57,498 57,865 57,865 57,569 On-net buildings (3) 13,910 14,253 14,625 14,981 14,981 15,446 15,618 15,715 14,427 14,427 14,520

Non-GAAP Measures This presentation, as well as the conference call, includes disclosures regarding “EBITDA,” “adjusted EBITDA,” “total net debt to last 12 month adjusted EBITDA ratio” or “Net debt leverage ratio,” and “Normalized revenue,” all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, they should not be construed as alternatives to net cash from operating or investing activities, cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, net income or net income per share as defined by GAAP and are not, on their own, necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, not all companies use identical calculations, and the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP is included in the tables that follow. Adjusted EBITDA is comprised of EBITDA, adjusted for certain items as permitted or required by the lenders under our credit agreement in place at the end of each quarter in the periods presented. The tables that follow include an explanation of how adjusted EBITDA is calculated for each of the periods presented with the reconciliation to net income (loss) from continuing operations. EBITDA is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization on a historical basis. We present adjusted EBITDA for several reasons. Management believes adjusted EBITDA is useful as a means to evaluate our ability to fund our estimated uses of cash (including interest on our debt). In addition, we have presented adjusted EBITDA to investors in the past because it is frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry, and management believes presenting it here provides a measure of consistency in our financial reporting. Adjusted EBITDA, referred to as Available Cash in our credit agreement, is also a component of the restrictive covenants and financial ratios contained in our credit agreement that requires us to maintain compliance with these covenants and limit certain activities, such as our ability to incur debt. The definitions in these covenants and ratios are based on Adjusted EBITDA after giving effect to specified charges. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA provides our board of directors with meaningful information, with other data, assumptions and considerations, to measure our ability to service and repay debt. We present the related “total net debt to last 12 month adjusted EBITDA ratio” or “Net debt leverage ratio” principally to help investors understand how we measure leverage and facilitate comparisons by investors, security analysts and others. Total net debt is defined as the current and long-term portions of debt and finance lease obligations less cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, deferred debt issuance costs and discounts on debt. Our Net debt leverage ratio differs in certain respects from the similar ratio used in our credit agreement or against comparable measures of certain other companies in our industry. These measures differ in certain respects from the ratios used in our senior notes indenture. These non-GAAP financial measures have certain shortcomings. In particular, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent the residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, since items such as debt repayment and interest payments are not deducted from such measure. In addition, the ratio of total net debt to last 12-month adjusted EBITDA is subject to the risk that we may not be able to use the cash on the balance sheet to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Management believes this ratio is useful as a means to evaluate our ability to incur additional indebtedness in the future.
