Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 23, 2008, Encore Wire Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), issued an
earnings release describing selected financial results of the Company for the second quarter of
2008 and the six months ended June 30, 2008. A copy of the Company’s earnings release is attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
On July 24, 2008, the Company held a conference call to discuss its earnings and financial
results for the second quarter of 2008 and the six months ended June 30, 2008 (the “Conference
Call”). On the Conference Call, the Company disclosed certain non-GAAP financial information
related to the Company’s operations. The non-GAAP financial information disclosed was EBITDA for
the second quarter of 2008. EBITDA as presented is calculated as follows:

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
EBITDA was presented because it is a required component of financial ratios reported by the Company
to the Company’s banks, and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other
interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP) results to compare to the performance of other companies who also publicize this
information. Financial analysts frequently ask for EBITDA when it has not been presented. EBITDA
is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an
alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or any other
measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP.
