Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Principal Accounting Officer (the certifying officers) have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules

13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2024. Our certifying officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

On April 1, 2024, Shentel completed its acquisition of Horizon Acquisition Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Horizon”) and has implemented new processes and internal controls to assist us in the preparation and disclosure of financial information related to Horizon’s business. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows companies to exclude acquisitions from their assessment of the internal control over financial reporting during the first year following an acquisition while integrating the acquired company. Given the significance of the Horizon acquisition and the complexity of its systems and business processes, the Company has excluded, and intends to continue excluding the acquired Horizon business from our assessment and report on internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. Other than as discussed above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II

We are currently involved in, and may in the future become involved in, legal proceedings, claims and investigations in the ordinary course of our business. Although the results of these legal proceedings, claims and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the final outcome of any matters that we are currently involved in are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Regardless of final outcomes, however, any such proceedings, claims, and investigations may nonetheless impose a significant burden on management and employees and be costly to defend, with unfavorable preliminary or interim rulings.
