Daktronics: Board authorizes $40.0M in additional share repurchases on June 22 - filing

Daktronics, Inc. (NASDAQ: DAKT) announced on June 17, 2016, that its Board of Directors authorized a $40 million stock buyback. The repurchase program is intended to allow Daktronics to return value to shareholders while maintaining a strong balance sheet.

Under the program, shares may be repurchased through open market transactions, private agreements, or other methods, with the timing and volume determined at the discretion of management based on market conditions and applicable securities laws. The company emphasized that no assurance can be given that any specific amount of stock will be repurchased under the program.

This authorization aligns with Daktronics’ broader strategy of balancing capital allocation between dividends, share repurchases, and investments in business opportunities. The company has historically maintained a leadership position in the design, manufacturing, and servicing of large-screen video displays, electronic scoreboards, and related systems for global markets.

The repurchase program does not represent a commitment to repurchase shares at any specific price or time and may be suspended or modified at any point. Investors are encouraged to review the company’s SEC filings for additional details on its financial strategy and risk factors associated with share repurchases.
