Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of business : Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries are engaged principally in the design, market, and manufacture of a wide range of integrated electronic display systems and related products which are sold in a variety of markets throughout the world and the rendering of related maintenance and professional services. Our products are designed primarily to inform and entertain people through the communication of content. Fiscal year : We operate on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year, with our fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to April 30 of each year. When April 30 falls on a Wednesday, the fiscal year ends on the preceding Saturday. Within each fiscal year, each quarter is comprised of 13-week periods following the beginning of each fiscal year. In each 53-week year, an additional week is added to the first quarter, and each of the last three quarters is comprised of a 13-week period. The fiscal years ended April 27, 2019 and April 28, 2018 contained operating results for 52 weeks, while the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 contained operating results for 53 weeks. Principles of consolidation : The consolidated financial statements include Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliates : Investments in affiliates over which we have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method of accounting, recording the investment at cost and then subsequently adjusting to account for our share of the affiliates profit or losses, in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures . Investments in affiliates over which we do not have the ability to exert significant influence over the affiliate's operating and financing activities are accounted for under the cost method of accounting, recording the investment at cost and then subsequently adjusting for any changes in ownership or dividends in accordance with the provisions of ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities . We have evaluated our relationships with our affiliates and have determined that these entities are not variable interest entities. Cash paid for investments in affiliates and loans to affiliates are included in the "Purchases of and loans to equity investment" line item in our consolidated statements of cash flows. Equity method investments as a whole are assessed for other-than-temporary impairments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we participated in a Series A investment in X Display Company ("XDC"). XDC creates and owns leading intellectual property (IP) and capabilities in microLED mass transfer technology. This investment will support XDC’s further development in microLED capabilities and applications. MicroLED technologies support Daktronics’ line of narrow pixel pitch LED displays and will enable solutions to move into the realm of less than 1-millimeter pixel spacing. We own approximately 12 percent of the shares of XDC outstanding. We have the right to invest $5,000 in XDC within one year if certain conditions exist. This additional investment would result in approximately an additional six percent ownership in the company. XDC is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the COVID-19 crisis impacted the global economy. While this uncertain economic outlook has caused near-term changes, we do not believe this change will have a permanent impact to our investments in affiliates. The aggregate amount of investments accounted for under the equity method was $17,257 and $3,657 at May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. Our proportional share of the respective affiliates' earnings or losses is included in the " Other (expense) income, net " line item in our consolidated statements of operations. For fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , our share of the losses of our affiliates was $741 , $844 , and $ 481 respectively. Summarized financial information for equity method investments consist of the following: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Balance sheet data: Current assets $ 10,593 $ 192 Non-current assets 4,266 2,626 Current liabilities 2,755 839 Non-current liabilities 4,086 2,599 Income statement data: Net loss (1,383 ) (2,168 ) (1,493 ) Use of estimates : The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; and our ability to continue as a going concern. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the estimated total costs on uniquely configured contracts and estimated costs to be incurred for product warranties and income taxes. Estimation processes are also used in inventory valuation, the allowance for doubtful accounts, share-based compensation, goodwill impairment, and extended warranty and product maintenance agreements. Changes in estimates are reflected in the periods in which they become known. Cash and cash equivalents : All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and consist primarily of government repurchase agreements, savings accounts and money market accounts that are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts. Restricted cash : Restricted cash consists of cash and cash equivalents held in bank deposit accounts to secure issuances of foreign bank guarantees. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the totals of the same amounts shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows: May 2, April 27, April 28, Cash and cash equivalents $ 40,398 $ 35,383 $ 29,727 Restricted cash 14 359 28 Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows $ 40,412 $ 35,742 $ 29,755 Inventories: In accordance with ASC 330, Inventory, our inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Cost is measured as the price of the components and allocated expenses for production or betterment of the inventory item. When we estimate net realizable value to be lower than cost, any necessary adjustments are charged to cost of sales in that period. In determining net realizable value, we review various factors such as current inventory levels, forecasted demand, costs of completion, and technological obsolescence. Allowance for doubtful accounts: We make estimates regarding the collectability of our accounts receivable, long-term receivables, contract assets and other receivables. In evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts, we analyze specific balances, customer creditworthiness, changes in customer payment cycles, and current economic trends. If the financial condition of any customer were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of its ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. We charge off receivables at such time as it is determined collection will not occur in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables . Revenue recognition : We adopted ASU 2014-09 and its related guidance under the modified retrospective method during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 by applying the guidance to all open contracts at the adoption date. The adoption of this standard did not materially change the timing or amount of revenue recognized, primarily based upon our assessment of "point in time" and "over time" revenue recognition. Our accounting policies and estimates as a result of adopting ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , are as follows: Contracts are identified and follow the revenue recognition policies when all of the following occur: we have evidence that all parties to the contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, we can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred, we can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable we will collect substantially all of the consideration to which we would be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. Pre-contract costs are generally expensed as incurred, unless they are directly associated with an anticipated contract and recoverability from that contract is probable. Pre-contract costs directly associated with anticipated contracts expected to be recoverable include $1,582 and $857 as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. These are included in the "Inventories" line item in our consolidated balance sheets. At contract inception, we identify performance obligations by reviewing the agreement for material distinct goods and services. Goods and services are distinct when the customer can benefit from them on their own and our promises to transfer these items are identifiable from other promises within the contract. When we are contracted to provide a single promise (an integrated system), we often treat it as a single performance obligation if we are providing goods and services with the same pattern of transfer that are highly integrated or interdependent, that are modified or customized by other goods or services promised, or that provide a combined outcome for which the customer has contracted. When less interdependency or integration is necessary, or when the customer can benefit from distinct items, we separate the contract into multiple performance obligations. We account for extended warranties and other services ("service-type warranties") that represent a distinct service as a separate performance obligation. Our contracts can contain multiple components of transaction price. We evaluate each contract for these components and include fixed consideration, variable consideration, financing components, and non-cash consideration and exclude consideration payable to a customer and sales taxes in the transaction price. When we are responsible for site installations which include subcontracted work, we maintain the contractual responsibilities and risks and include the consideration for these services in the transaction price. When our contract contains variable consideration, including return rights, discounts, claims, unpriced change orders, and liquidated damages, we estimate the transaction price using the expected value (i.e., the sum of the probability-weighted amount) or the most likely amount method, whichever is expected to better predict revenue for that contract situation. We also constrain the revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. We consider the following factors in determining revenue associated with variable consideration: (a) the contract or other evidence providing the legal basis, (b) additional costs caused by unforeseen circumstances, (c) evidence supporting the claim, and (d) historical evidence and patterns of customers. We adjust the contract price for the effects of a significant financing component if we expect, at contract inception, that the period between when we transfer goods and services to a customer will exceed one year from the time the customer pays and represents financing. If the payment structures exceed a year but are structured to account for risks with a contract or correspond to payments on milestones or are scheduled for performance, we do not adjust the contract price for a financing component. See " Note 9. Receivables " for amounts recorded in long-term receivables. When separate performance obligations are identified, we allocate the transaction price to the individual performance obligation based on the best method we judge as faithfully depicting the value of the performance obligation. Many of our contracts are bundled, and we do not have separate selling prices for each performance obligation; therefore, for these contracts, we primarily use the cost plus a margin approach to allocate the relative transaction price to identified performance obligations, as it is the best representative of our pricing methods. Revenue is recognized when we satisfy a performance obligation. We receive payments from customers based on a billing schedule as established in our contracts. Billing schedules include down payments and progress billings over time; set milestone payments that are specific to the project are scheduled for performance-based payments or are set time-based payment(s). Variability in contract assets and contract liabilities relates to the timing of billings and revenue recognition, which can vary significantly depending on contractual payment terms and build and installation schedules and the related timing differences in transfer of control. Balances are also impacted by the seasonality in our business. Significant judgments and estimates are used in our revenue policies. Throughout the revenue cycle, we evaluate contractual evidence, monitor our performance, evaluate variable consideration changes, update estimated costs to complete cost-to-cost projects, and obtain evidence of deliveries or other control change evidence for appropriate and consistent revenue recognition. We maintain internal policies and procedures to provide guidance for those involved in recording revenue. We monitor for changes in our business sales practices and customer interactions to capture the appropriate types of performance obligations and adjust for any change in control terms and conditions. Our material performance obligation types include: Unique configuration contracts : audio-visual communication systems uniquely configured (custom) or integrated for a customer's particular location and system configuration may include all or a combination of the following: engineering services, project management services, video display(s), control solution(s), installation and integration services, scoring and messaging equipment, training, other on-site services, spare parts, software licenses, and assurance-type warranties. We may have multiple performance obligations in these types of contracts; however a majority are treated as a combined single performance obligation. In our judgment, this accounting treatment is most appropriate because the substantial part of our promise to customers is to provide significant integration services and incorporate individual goods and services into a combined output or system. Often times, the system is customized or significantly modified to the customer's desired configurations and location, and the interrelated goods and services provide utility to the customer as a package. Revenue for uniquely configured (custom) or integrated systems is recognized over time using the cost incurred input method. Over time revenue recognition is appropriate because we have no alternative use for the uniquely configured system and have an enforceable right to payment for work performed. The cost incurred input method measures costs incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is the most faithful depiction of our performance because it measures the value of the contract transferred to the customer. Costs to perform include direct and indirect costs for contract design, production, integration, installation, and assurance-type warranty reserve. Direct costs include material and components; manufacturing, project management and engineering labor; and subcontracting expenses. Indirect costs include allocated charges for such items as facilities and equipment depreciation and general overhead. Provisions of estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period when such losses are capable of being estimated. Contract modifications to existing contracts with customers are evaluated in accordance with the five-step revenue model. We treat contract modifications as a separate contract and new performance obligations when the additional goods or services are distinct and do not add to the unique configuration or are outside the integrated system and when the consideration reflects standalone selling prices. If the additional goods or services offered under the modification enhance the uniquely configured or integrated systems, revenue is allocated to the existing contracts' performance obligation. Modifications may cause changes in the timing of revenue recognition depending on the allocation to various performance obligations. The time between contract order and project completion is typically less than 12 months but may extend longer depending on the amount of custom work and customers’ delivery needs. Limited configuration (standard systems) and after-sale parts contracts : Limited configured (standard systems) or after-sale parts contracts with limited or no configuration or limited integration are recognized as distinct individual performance obligations when material. When not distinct, we combine into one performance obligation the goods and/or services with each other until the bundle of goods or services is distinct. For standard display purchases made in large quantities, we account for each piece of equipment separately as a distinct performance obligation from which a customer derives benefit. Immaterial goods or services in the context of the contract are included with the display system performance obligation. Standard systems and equipment with limited configurations or integrations may include all or a combination (when immaterial) of the following performance obligations: engineering services, project management services, video display(s), control solution(s), installation and integration services, scoring, messaging and audio equipment, training, spare parts, software licenses, assurance-type warranties, and after-sale parts. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when control passes, or over time as services are performed. When fulfilling limited configuration performance obligations, we are typically able to redirect the video displays or scoring, messaging, or audio equipment to another customer without incurring significant economic losses. Therefore, we have an alternative use for the performance obligation and recognize revenue upon our substantial completion and at the point in time we estimate control has transferred to the customer. When limited configured single performance obligations are more service-type (i.e., installation and integration services), we recognize revenue over time using the cost-to-cost input method, which is the most faithful depiction of the customer obtaining control and benefits from the work performed. Services and other : Services sold on a stand-alone basis or after the initial system sale include performance obligations such as event support, control room design, on-site training, equipment service, service-type warranties, technical support, software sold as a service, and other immaterial revenue streams. These are contracted with a customer generally per service event or service type on a stand-alone basis. Services, service type warranties, and other are recognized as net sales when the services are performed, and control is transferred to the customer at a point in time when title or control passes or over time as services are performed and for time-based "stand ready to perform" type obligations. We use professional judgment to determine control transfer. If we have the right to consideration from a customer that directly corresponds with the value of our performance (where we bill a fixed amount for each hour of service provided), we recognize revenue related to the work completed. Software: Revenues from software license fees on sales, other than uniquely configured type contracts, are recognized when delivery of the product has occurred. Subscription-based licenses include the right for a customer to use our licenses and receive related support for a specified term, and revenue is recognized pro-rata over the term of the engagement. Shipping and handling costs: Shipping and handling costs collected from our customers in connection with our sales are recorded as revenue. We record shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of sales at the time the product is shipped. Warranty: We offer a standard parts coverage warranty for periods varying from one to five years for most of our products. We also offer additional types of warranties to include on-site labor, routine maintenance and event support. In addition, the terms of warranties on some installations can vary from one to 10 years. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary primarily depending on the type of product sold. We estimate the costs which may be incurred under the contractual warranty obligations (assurance type warranty) and record a liability in the amount of such estimated costs at the time the revenue is recognized. Factors affecting our estimate of the cost of our warranty obligations include historical experience and expectations of future conditions. We continually assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty accruals and, to the extent we experience any changes in warranty claim activity or costs associated with servicing those claims, our accrued warranty obligation is adjusted accordingly. For service-type warranty contracts, we allocate revenue to this performance obligation, recognize the revenue over time, and recognize costs as incurred. Long-term receivables and advertising rights: We occasionally sell and install our products at facilities in exchange for the rights to sell or to retain future advertising revenues. For these transactions, we recognize revenue equal to the amount of the present value of the future advertising payments if enough advertising is sold to obtain normal margins on the contract, and we record the related receivable in long-term receivables. We recognize imputed interest as earned. Property and equipment : In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated principally on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Years Buildings and improvements 5 - 40 Machinery and equipment 5 - 7 Office furniture and equipment 3 - 5 Computer software and hardware 3 - 5 Equipment held for rental 2 - 7 Demonstration equipment 3 - 5 Transportation equipment 5 - 7 Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Property and equipment held for sale: In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, property and equipment held for sale are reported separately when we have a plan to dispose of the asset by sale, it is probable we will find a buyer in the near future, and a change in plan is unlikely. The value is stated at the lower of carrying value or fair value, and no depreciation is charged. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets : In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment , we assess long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. When evaluating long-lived assets for potential impairment, we first compare the carrying value of the asset to the asset's estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges). If the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, we calculate an impairment loss. The impairment loss calculation compares the carrying value of the asset to the asset's estimated fair value. We recognize an impairment loss if the amount of the asset's carrying value exceeds the asset's estimated fair value. If we recognize an impairment loss, the adjusted carrying amount of the asset becomes its new cost basis. For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new cost basis will be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset. Our impairment loss calculations contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values, including forecasting useful lives of the assets and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent in future cash flows. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets : We account for goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other. Under these provisions, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. Impairment testing is required more often than annually if an event or circumstance indicates an impairment or a decline in value may have occurred. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, a worsening trend of orders and sales without a corresponding way to preserve future cash flows or a significant decline in our stock price. In conducting our impairment testing, we utilize step 0 which allows us to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If, based on a review of qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value we perform a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, we measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. If a quantitative analysis is performed, we utilize an income approach to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. We selected this method because we believe it most appropriately measures our income producing assets. We considered using the market approach and cost approach, but concluded they were not appropriate in valuing our reporting units given the lack of relevant and available market comparisons. The income approach is based on the projected cash flows, which are discounted to their present value using discount rates which consider the timing and risk of the forecasted cash flows. We believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon the reporting unit's expected long-term operating cash performance. This approach also mitigates the impact of the cyclical trends occurring in the industry. Fair value is estimated using internally developed forecasts and assumptions. The discount rate used is the average estimated value of a market participant’s cost of capital and debt, derived using customary market metrics. Other significant assumptions include terminal value margin rates, future capital expenditures, and changes in future working capital requirements. We also compare and reconcile our overall fair value to our market capitalization. Although there are inherent uncertainties related to the assumptions used and to our application of these assumptions to this analysis, we believe the income approach provides a reasonable estimate of the fair value of our reporting units. The foregoing assumptions to a large degree were consistent with our long-term performance, with limited exceptions. We believe our future investments for capital expenditures as a percent of revenue will remain similar to the historical rates as a percentage of sales in future years. Our investments are expected to relate to equipment replacements and new product line manufacturing equipment needs, and to keep our information technology infrastructure robust. These assumptions could deviate materially from actual results. Software costs to be sold, leased, or marketed: We follow the provisions of ASC 985, Software , which states software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. At such time, such costs are capitalized until the product is made available for release to customers. Additionally, costs incurred after release to customers are expensed as research and development expenses. As of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , capitalized software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed had a net book value of $1,357 and $2,523 , respectively. Foreign currency translation : We follow the provisions of ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Our foreign subsidiaries use the local currency of their respective countries as their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are generally translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The operating results of foreign operations are translated at weighted average exchange rates. The related translation gains or losses are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss . Income taxes : We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes . We record a tax provision for anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using currently enacted tax rates and statutory tax rates applicable to the years in which we expect these temporary differences will affect taxable income. These assets and liabilities are analyzed regularly, and we assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recoverable from future taxable income. When necessary, a valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We report the net deferred tax asset and liability as a long-term asset or liability. Net deferred assets or liabilities are calculated by combining them based on their jurisdiction. In addition, because we operate in multiple income tax jurisdictions both within the United States and internationally, the calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with our expectations could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results. See " Note 15. Income Taxes " for further information. Comprehensive (loss) income : We follow the provisions of ASC 220, Reporting Comprehensive Income , which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components, and disclose these components in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Comprehensive (loss) income reflects the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. For us, comprehensive income represents net income adjusted for cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. The foreign currency translation adjustment included in the comprehensive income calculation has not been tax affected, as the investments in foreign affiliates are deemed to be permanent. Product design and development : We follow the provisions of ASC 730, Research and Development , which states all expenses related to product design and development are charged to operations as incurred. Our product design and development activities include the enhancement of existing products and technologies and the development of new products and technologies. Advertising costs : In accordance with ASC 720-35, Advertising Costs , we expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $2,184 , $2,969 and $2,855 for the fiscal years 2020 , 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Earnings per share (“EPS”) : We follow the provisions of ASC 260, Ea |

Revenue Recognition | Note 2. Revenue Recognition Disaggregation of revenue In accordance with ASC 606-10-50, we disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by the type of performance obligation and the timing of revenue recognition. We determine that disaggregating revenue in these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors and to enable users of financial statements to understand the relationship to each reportable segment. The following table presents our disaggregation of revenue by segments: Fiscal Year 2020 Commercial Live Events High School Park and Recreation Transportation International Total Type of performance obligation Unique configuration $ 35,212 $ 140,044 $ 19,176 $ 43,519 $ 40,454 $ 278,405 Limited configuration 102,847 31,897 74,266 24,588 45,626 279,224 Service and other 14,568 24,650 2,972 2,032 7,081 51,303 $ 152,627 $ 196,591 $ 96,414 $ 70,139 $ 93,161 $ 608,932 Timing of revenue recognition Goods/services transferred at a point in time $ 105,096 $ 39,521 $ 68,582 $ 25,157 $ 47,345 $ 285,701 Goods/services transferred over time 47,531 157,070 27,832 44,982 45,816 323,231 $ 152,627 $ 196,591 $ 96,414 $ 70,139 $ 93,161 $ 608,932 Fiscal Year 2019 Commercial Live Events High School Park and Recreation Transportation International Total Type of performance obligation Unique configuration $ 25,171 $ 119,569 $ 21,792 $ 38,490 $ 44,989 $ 250,011 Limited configuration 108,921 30,107 66,825 23,799 42,134 271,786 Service and other 14,741 21,276 2,570 2,102 7,218 47,907 $ 148,833 $ 170,952 $ 91,187 $ 64,391 $ 94,341 $ 569,704 Timing of revenue recognition Goods/services transferred at a point in time $ 111,617 $ 35,313 $ 60,763 $ 24,500 $ 44,758 $ 276,951 Goods/services transferred over time 37,216 135,639 30,424 39,891 49,583 292,753 $ 148,833 $ 170,952 $ 91,187 $ 64,391 $ 94,341 $ 569,704 See " Note 3. Segment Reporting " for a disaggregation of revenue by geography. Contract balances Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and include unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are reclassified to accounts receivable when they are billed according to the contract terms. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to the clients in excess of revenue recognized to date. The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and liabilities: May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 Dollar Change Percent Change Contract assets $ 35,467 $ 33,704 $ 1,763 5.2 % Contract liabilities - current 50,897 47,178 3,719 7.9 Contract liabilities - non-current 10,707 10,053 654 6.5 The changes in our contract assets and contract liabilities from April 27, 2019 to May 2, 2020 were due to the timing of billing schedules and revenue recognition, which can vary significantly depending on the contractual payment terms and the seasonality of the sports markets. We had no material impairments of contract assets for fiscal 2020 . For service-type warranty contracts, we allocate revenue to this performance obligation, recognize the revenue over time, and recognize costs as incurred. Earned and unearned revenues for these contracts are included in the "Contract assets" and "Contract liabilities". Changes in unearned service-type warranty contracts, net were as follows: May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 Balance at beginning of year $ 24,939 $ 20,127 New contracts sold 41,169 41,907 Less: reductions for revenue recognized (41,167 ) (37,241 ) Foreign currency translation and other (451 ) 146 Balance at end of year $ 24,490 $ 24,939 As of April 27, 2019 , we had six contracts in progress that were identified as loss contracts, for which we recorded a provision for losses of $2,353 and one remaining contract with loss estimates of $42 as of May 2, 2020 . These were included in the "Accrued expenses" line item in our consolidated balance sheets. During fiscal 2020 , we recognized revenue of $45,195 related to our contract liabilities as of April 27, 2019 . Remaining performance obligations As of May 2, 2020 , the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was $267,671 . We expect approximately $222,963 of our remaining performance obligations to be recognized over the next 12 months, with the remainder recognized thereafter. Remaining performance obligations related to product and service agreements at May 2, 2020 are $211,863 and $55,808 , respectively. Although remaining performance obligations reflect business that is considered to be legally binding, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals are reflected or excluded in the remaining performance obligation balance, as appropriate. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting | Note 3. Segment Reporting We organize and manage our business by the following five segments which meet the definition of reportable segments under ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting : Commercial, Live Events, High School Park and Recreation, Transportation, and International. These segments are based on the customer type or geography and are the same as our business units. Our Commercial business unit primarily consists of sales of our integrated video display systems, digital billboards, Galaxy ® and Fuelight ™ product lines, and dynamic messaging systems to resellers (primarily sign companies), out-of-home ("OOH") companies, national retailers, quick-serve restaurants, casinos, shopping centers, cruise ships, commercial building owners, and petroleum retailers. Our Live Events business unit primarily consists of sales of integrated scoring and video display systems to college and professional sports facilities and convention centers and sales of our mobile display technology to video rental organizations and other live events type venues. Our High School Park and Recreation business unit primarily consists of sales of scoring systems, Galaxy ® displays and video display systems to primary and secondary education facilities and resellers (primarily sign companies). Our Transportation business unit primarily consists of sales of intelligent transportation system dynamic messaging signs for road management, mass transit, and aviation applications and other electronic signage for advertising and way-finding needs, which includes our Vanguard ® and Galaxy ® product lines and other intelligent transportation systems dynamic message signs, to governmental transportation departments, transportation industry contractors, airlines and other transportation related customers. Our International business unit consists of sales of all product lines outside the United States and Canada. In our International business unit, we focus on product lines related to integrated scoring and video display systems for sports and commercial applications, OOH advertising products, architectural lighting, and transportation related products for sale outside of the United States and Canada to the related type of company, including sports and commercial business facilities, OOH companies, and governmental transportation agencies. We evaluate segment performance based on operating results through contribution margin, which is comprised of gross profit less selling expense. Gross profit is net sales less cost of sales. Cost of sales consists primarily of inventory and components, logistics related costs including tariffs and duties, consumables, salaries, other employee-related costs, facilities-related costs for manufacturing locations, machinery and equipment maintenance and depreciation, site sub-contractors, warranty costs, enterprise resource and service management systems, inventory obsolescence and write-downs, inventory procurement and handling costs, and other manufacturing, installation, and service delivery expenses. Selling expenses consist primarily of salaries, other employee-related costs, travel and entertainment expenses, facilities-related costs for sales and service offices, bad debt expenses, third-party commissions and expenditures for marketing efforts, including the costs of collateral materials, conventions and trade shows, product demonstrations, customer relationship management systems, and supplies. Contribution margin excludes general and administration expense, product design and development expense, non-operating income and expense and income tax expense. Assets are not allocated to the segments. Depreciation and amortization are allocated to each segment based on various financial measures; however, some depreciation and amortization are corporate in nature and remain unallocated. Our segments follow the same accounting policies as those described in " Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ." Some expenses or services are not directly allocable to a sale or segment or the resources and related expenses are shared across business segment areas. These expenses are allocated using estimates and allocation methodologies based on some financial measures and professional judgment. Shared or unabsorbed manufacturing costs are allocated to the business unit benefiting most from that manufacturing location's production capabilities. Shared or unabsorbed costs of domestic field sales and services infrastructure, including most field administrative staff, are allocated to the Commercial, Live Events, High School Park and Recreation, and Transportation business units based on cost of sales. Shared manufacturing, buildings and utilities, and procurement costs are allocated based on payroll dollars, square footage and various other financial measures in the segment analysis. Separate financial information is available and regularly evaluated by our chief operating decision-maker ("CODM"), who is our president and chief executive officer, in making resource allocation decisions for our segments. We do not maintain information on sales by products; therefore, disclosure of such information is not practical. The following table sets forth certain financial information for each of our five reporting segments for the periods indicated: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Net sales: Commercial $ 152,627 $ 148,833 $ 134,535 Live Events 196,591 170,952 236,333 High School Park and Recreation 96,414 91,187 87,627 Transportation 70,139 64,391 59,578 International 93,161 94,341 92,457 608,932 569,704 610,530 Gross profit: Commercial 29,246 31,785 26,665 Live Events 39,518 32,164 49,755 High School Park and Recreation 28,874 26,858 29,317 Transportation 23,910 22,525 21,247 International 17,152 16,962 18,685 138,700 130,294 145,669 Contribution margin: (1) Commercial 9,897 13,218 7,986 Live Events 26,074 18,484 35,439 High School Park and Recreation 15,341 14,518 18,317 Transportation 19,566 18,260 17,048 International 1,920 1,166 4,119 72,798 65,646 82,909 Non-allocated operating expenses: General and administrative 35,193 34,817 34,919 Product design and development 37,772 35,557 35,530 Operating (loss) income (167 ) (4,728 ) 12,460 Nonoperating income (expense): Interest income 805 1,031 723 Interest expense (106 ) (160 ) (217 ) Other (expense) income, net (541 ) (1,087 ) (537 ) (Loss) income before income taxes (9 ) (4,944 ) 12,429 Income tax (benefit) expense (500 ) (3,986 ) 6,867 Net income (loss) $ 491 $ (958 ) $ 5,562 Depreciation and amortization: Commercial $ 3,682 $ 4,795 $ 6,199 Live Events 5,605 5,194 4,783 High School Park and Recreation 2,025 1,965 1,646 Transportation 1,029 1,102 1,138 International 2,460 2,829 1,163 Unallocated corporate depreciation 2,917 2,750 2,855 $ 17,718 $ 18,635 $ 17,784 (1) Contribution margin consists of gross profit less selling expense. No single geographic area comprises a material amount of our net sales or property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, other than the United States. The following table presents information about net sales and property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, in the United States and elsewhere: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Net sales: United States $ 504,931 $ 460,099 $ 501,646 Outside United States 104,001 109,605 108,884 $ 608,932 $ 569,704 $ 610,530 Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation: United States $ 58,422 $ 59,192 $ 61,206 Outside United States 9,062 6,122 6,853 $ 67,484 $ 65,314 $ 68,059 We have numerous customers worldwide for sales of our products and services, and no customer accounted for 10% or more of net sales; therefore, we are not economically dependent on a limited number of customers for the sale of our products and services. We have numerous raw material and component suppliers, and no supplier accounts for 10% or more of our cost of sales; however, we have a number of single-source suppliers that could limit our supply or cause delays in obtaining raw material and components needed in manufacturing. |

Marketable Securities [Abstract] | |
Marketable Securities | Note 4. Marketable Securities We have a cash management program which provides for the investment of cash balances not used in current operations. We classify our investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets. As it relates to fixed income marketable securities, it is not likely we will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. In addition, as of May 2, 2020 , we anticipate we will recover the entire amortized cost basis of such fixed income securities, and we have determined no other-than-temporary impairments associated with credit losses were required to be recognized. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Where quoted market prices are not available, we use the market price of similar types of securities traded in the market to estimate fair value. As of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , our available-for-sale securities consisted of the following: Amortized Cost Unrealized Losses Fair Value Balance as of May 2, 2020: Certificates of deposit $ 1,230 $ — $ 1,230 $ 1,230 $ — $ 1,230 Balance as of April 27, 2019: Certificates of deposit $ 3,464 $ — $ 3,464 U.S. Government securities 10,779 (5 ) 10,774 U.S. Government sponsored entities 10,510 (28 ) 10,482 Municipal bonds 1,626 (2 ) 1,624 $ 26,379 $ (35 ) $ 26,344 Realized gains or losses on investments are recorded in our consolidated statements of operations as " Other (expense) income, net ." Upon the sale of a security classified as available-for-sale, the security’s specific unrealized gain (loss) is reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings based on the specific identification method. In the fiscal years ended May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , the reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net earnings were immaterial. All available-for-sale securities are classified as current assets, as they are readily available to support our current operating needs. The contractual maturities of available-for-sale debt securities as of May 2, 2020 were as follows: Less than 12 months Total Certificates of deposit $ 1,230 $ 1,230 $ 1,230 $ 1,230 |

Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Note 7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets We account for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill related to each reportable segment for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 were as follows: Live Events Commercial Transportation International Total Balance as of April 27, 2019: $ 2,276 $ 3,218 $ 49 $ 2,346 $ 7,889 Foreign currency translation (10 ) (74 ) (11 ) (51 ) (146 ) Balance as of May 2, 2020: $ 2,266 $ 3,144 $ 38 $ 2,295 $ 7,743 We perform an analysis of goodwill on an annual basis, and test for impairment more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. Our annual analysis is performed during our third quarter of each fiscal year, based on the goodwill amount as of the first business day of our third fiscal quarter. We performed our annual impairment test and concluded no goodwill impairment existed for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 . In conducting our impairment testing, we utilize step 0 which allows us to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If, based on a review of qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value we perform a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, we measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. In March 2020, we began to see impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic that could have a negative impact on our forecasted revenue and profitability. This, along with the decline in our stock price and other market conditions, led us to perform an interim qualitative goodwill impairment analysis. After evaluating our results, events and circumstances, we determined that a quantitative or step 1 analysis was necessary for our International business unit. The results of that analysis indicated no goodwill impairment was necessary.

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Receivables | Note 9. Receivables We invoice customers based on a billing schedule as established in our contracts. We sometimes have the ability to file a contractor’s lien against the product installed as collateral and to file claims against surety bonds to protect our interest in receivables. Foreign sales are at times secured by irrevocable letters of credit or bank guarantees. Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,828 and $2,208 at May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. Included in accounts receivable as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 was $687 and $440 , respectively, of retainage on construction-type contracts, all of which is expected to be collected within one year. In some contracts with customers, we agree to installment payments exceeding 12 months. The present value of these contracts is recorded as a receivable as the revenue is recognized in accordance with GAAP, and profit is recognized to the extent the present value is in excess of cost. We generally retain a security interest in the equipment or in the cash flow generated by the equipment until the contract is paid. The present value of long-term contracts, including accrued interest and current maturities, was $4,633 and $3,514 as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. Contract receivables bearing annual interest rates of 5.0 to 9.0 percent are due in varying annual installments through August 2024 . The face value of long-term receivables was $5,166 as of May 2, 2020 and $3,271 as of April 27, 2019 . Our customers' businesses are subject to the fluctuations in global economic cycles and conditions and other business risk factors which may impact their ability to operate their businesses. The performance and financial condition of our customers may cause us to alter our business terms or to cease doing business with a particular customer. Further, the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their businesses could adversely impact our customers' ability to pay us for work performed and increase our future estimate of credit losses. We evaluated our receivable and contract assets as of May 2, 2020 and reserved for anticipated losses. Due to the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, this loss may materially change from this estimate. |

Financing Agreements | Note 10. Financing Agreements On November 15, 2019, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of our credit agreement and a related revolving bank note from November 15, 2019 to November 15, 2022 and to modify certain other terms and financial covenants. The revolving amount of the agreement and note remains at $35,000 , including up to $15,000 for commercial and standby letters of credit. The interest rate ranges from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 145 basis points to LIBOR plus 195 basis points depending on the ratio of our interest-bearing debt to EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income before deductions for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, all as determined in accordance with GAAP. The effective interest rate was 2.0 percent at May 2, 2020 . We are assessed a loan fee equal to 0.125 percent per annum on any unused portion of the loan. As of May 2, 2020 , $15,000 had been advanced to us under the loan portion of the line of credit, and the balance of letters of credit outstanding was approximately $4,196 . The credit agreement is unsecured and requires us to be in compliance with the following financial ratios: • A minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2 to 1 at the end of any fiscal quarter. The ratio is equal to (a) EBITDA minus the sum of dividends or other distributions (unless the bank approves), share repurchases, a maintenance capital expenditure reserve in the amount of $6,000 , and income tax to (b) all principal and interest payments with respect to indebtedness, excluding principal payments on the line of credit; and • A ratio of funded debt, excluding any marketing obligations, to EBITDA of greater than 2 to 1 at the end of any fiscal quarter. We are sometimes required to obtain bank guarantees or other financial instruments for display installations. If we are unable to meet the terms of the arrangement, our customer would draw on the banking arrangement, and the bank would subrogate its loss to Daktronics. As of May 2, 2020 , we had $8,894 of such instruments outstanding. As of May 2, 2020 , we were in compliance with all applicable bank loan covenants. |

Treasury Stock [Text Block] | Note 11. Share Repurchase Program On June 17, 2016 , our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program under which we may purchase up to $40,000 of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock. Under this program, we may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions and in privately negotiated transactions based on business, market, applicable legal requirements and other considerations. The repurchase program does not require the repurchase of a specific number of shares and may be terminated at any time. During fiscal 2018 and 2019, we had no repurchases of shares of our outstanding common stock. During fiscal 2020, we repurchased 1,039 shares of common stock at a total cost of $5,636 . As of May 2, 2020 , we had $32,539 of remaining capacity under our current share repurchase program. As part of our COVID-19 response, on April 1, 2020, our Board of Directors voted to suspend stock repurchases under our share repurchase program for the foreseeable future. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Lessee, Operating Leases [Text Block] | Note 12. Leases We lease facilities and various equipment to manufacture products and provide employee collaboration space and tools. These are all classified as operating leases and have initial lease terms ranging from one to five years. These operating leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Our lease in Sioux Falls, South Dakota has a purchase option. We do not have any financing leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As we are generally not able to determine the rate implicit in our leases, we use the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. The operating lease right-of-use asset includes any prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs and excludes any lease incentives and impairments. Some of our leases include options to extend the term, which is only included in the right-of-use assets and lease liability calculation when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, and we have elected to account for all asset classes as a single lease component. Our operating leases also typically require payment of real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. These components comprise the majority of our variable lease cost and are excluded from the present value of our lease obligations. In instances where they are fixed, they are included due to our election to combine lease and non-lease components. Our total variable lease costs are immaterial. Operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and short-term lease cost is recognized when paid. During fiscal 2020 , the operating lease cost included in cost of sales and operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations was $2,325 and $1,116 , respectively. Operating lease cost includes short-term leases, which are immaterial. As of May 2, 2020 , the weighted average remaining lease term and discount rate related to operating leases was 5.0 years and 3.4% . Supplemental unaudited cash flow information related to operating leases include: Fiscal Year 2020 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 3,340 Future minimum operating lease payments as of, and subsequent to, May 2, 2020 under ASC 842 are as follows: Operating Leases (1) Fiscal years ending 2021 $ 2,675 2022 1,984 2023 1,209 2024 1,085 2025 931 Thereafter 1,467 Total lease payments 9,351 Less imputed interest (780 ) Total lease liabilities $ 8,571 (1) Includes $3,879 to extend the term of the lease for our Sioux Falls, South Dakota manufacturing facility. |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Shareholders' Equity and Share-Based Compensation | Note 13. Shareholders’ Equity and Share-Based Compensation Common stock : Our 120,000 authorized shares consist of 115,000 shares of common stock and 5,000 shares of “undesignated stock.” Our Board of Directors has the power to authorize and issue any or all of the shares of undesignated stock without shareholder approval, including the authority to establish the rights and preferences of the undesignated stock. Each outstanding share of our common stock includes one preferred share purchase right. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us one one-thousandth of one share of our Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an initial exercise price of $25 per right, subject to adjustment and the terms of the shareholder rights agreement under which the dividend was declared and paid. The rights become exercisable immediately after the earlier of (i) 10 business days following a public announcement that a person or group has acquired beneficial ownership of 20 percent or more of our outstanding common shares (subject to certain exceptions) or (ii) 10 business days following the commencement or announcement of an intention to make a tender offer or exchange offer for our common shares, the consummation of which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of 20 percent or more of our outstanding common shares. The rights expire on November 19, 2021, which date may be extended by our Board of Directors subject to certain additional conditions. Stock incentive plans : During fiscal 2016, we established the Daktronics, Inc. 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”) and ceased granting options under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan ("2007 Plan"). The 2015 Plan provides for the issuance of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock, to employees, directors and consultants. Stock options issued to employees under the 2007 Plan and 2015 Plan generally have a 10 -year life, an exercise price equal to the market value on the grant date and a five -year annual vesting period. Stock options granted to independent directors under these plans have a seven -year life and an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. Stock options granted to independent directors vest in one year, provided that the directors remain on the Board. The restricted stock granted to independent directors vests in one year, provided that the directors remain on the Board. Restricted stock units are granted to employees and have a five -year annual vesting period. As with stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock unit ownership cannot be transferred during the vesting period. At May 2, 2020 , the aggregate number of shares available for future grants under the 2015 Plan for stock options and restricted stock awards was 1,176 shares . Shares of common stock subject to all stock awards granted under the 2015 Plan are counted as one share of stock for each share of stock subject to the award. Although the 2007 Plan remains in effect for options outstanding that were granted under the 2007 Plan until the earlier of the exercise of the options or their expiration or termination without being exercised, no new options can be granted under the 2007 Plan. Restricted stock and restricted stock units : We issue restricted stock to our non-employee directors and restricted stock units to employees. Restricted stock issued to non-employee directors are participating securities and receive dividends prior to vesting. Unvested restricted stock will terminate and be forfeited upon termination of employment or service. The fair value of restricted stock and our restricted stock unit awards are measured on the grant date based on the market value of our common stock. The related compensation expense as calculated under ASC 718, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized over the applicable vesting period. Unrecognized compensation expense related to the restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards was approximately $2,197 at May 2, 2020 , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. The total fair value of restricted stock vested was $1,415 , $1,530 , and $1,274 in fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , respectively. A summary of nonvested restricted stock and restricted stock units for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 is as follows: Year Ended May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 April 28, 2018 Number of Nonvested Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Number of Nonvested Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Number of Nonvested Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Outstanding at beginning of year 444 $ 7.58 437 $ 8.48 402 $ 8.69 Granted 186 7.03 181 6.79 178 8.46 Vested (173 ) 8.10 (169 ) 9.05 (141 ) 9.06 Forfeited (8 ) 7.37 (5 ) 7.74 (2 ) 8.93 Outstanding at end of year 449 $ 7.16 444 $ 7.58 437 $ 8.48 Stock Options : We issue incentive stock options to our employees and non-qualified stock options to our independent directors. A summary of stock option activity under our 2007 Plan and 2015 Plan during the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 is as follows: Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Outstanding at April 27, 2019 2,202 $ 10.03 4.41 $ — Granted 182 7.47 — — Canceled or forfeited (263 ) 8.85 — — Exercised — — — — Outstanding at May 2, 2020 2,121 $ 9.96 4.38 $ — Shares vested and expected to vest 2,098 $ 9.98 4.34 $ — Exercisable at May 2, 2020 1,593 $ 10.50 3.17 $ — The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options represents the difference between the exercise price of stock options and the fair market value of the underlying common stock for all in-the-money options. We define in-the-money options at May 2, 2020 as options having exercise prices lower than the $4.45 per share market price of our common stock on that date. There were in-the-money options to purchase 0 shares exercisable at May 2, 2020 . The total intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 was $0 , $98 , and $65 , respectively. The total fair value of stock options vested was $566 , $667 , and $977 for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , respectively. We estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. We recognize the fair value of the stock options on a straight-line basis as compensation expense. All options are recognized over the requisite service periods of the awards, which are generally the vesting periods. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. ASC 718 requires us to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and record share-based compensation expense only for those awards expected to vest. The following factors are the significant assumptions used in the computation of the fair value of options: Expected life . The expected life of options granted represents the period of time they are expected to be outstanding. We estimate the expected life of options granted based on historical exercise patterns, which we believe are representative of future behavior. We have examined our historical pattern of option exercises in an effort to determine if there were any discernible patterns of activity based on certain demographic characteristics. Demographic characteristics tested included age, salary level, job level and geographic location. We have determined there were no meaningful differences in option exercise activity based on the demographic characteristics tested. Expected volatility . We estimate the volatility of our common stock at the date of grant based on historical volatility consistent with ASC 718 and Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share Based Payments . Risk-free interest rate. The rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a term similar to the expected life of the options. Dividend yield. We use an expected dividend yield consistent with our historical dividend yield pattern. The following table provides the weighted-average fair value of options granted and the related assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Fair value of options granted $ 1.99 $ 2.16 $ 2.82 Risk-free interest rate 1.51 % 2.83 % 1.95 % Expected dividend rate 3.50 % 3.37 % 3.27 % Expected volatility 37.55 % 38.58 % 42.51 % Expected life of option 6.94 years 6.83 years 6.83 years Employee stock purchase plan : We have an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), which enables employees after six months of continuous employment to elect, in advance and semi-annually, to contribute up to 15 percent of their compensation, subject to certain limitations, toward the purchase of our common stock at a purchase price equal to 85 percent of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the first or last day of the participation period. The ESPP requires participants to hold any shares purchased under the ESPP for a minimum period of one year after the date of purchase. Compensation expense recognized on shares issued under our ESPP is based on the value of a traded option to purchase shares of our stock at a 15 percent discount to the stock price. The total number of shares reserved under the ESPP is 4,000 . The number of shares of common stock issued under the ESPP totaled 453 , 241 , and 223 shares in fiscal 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , respectively. The number of shares of common stock reserved for future employee purchases under the ESPP totaled 979 shares at May 2, 2020 . The ESPP is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). Total share-based compensation expense : As of May 2, 2020 , there was $3,096 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under all equity compensation plans. Total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for future changes in estimated forfeitures. We expect to recognize the cost over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years. The following table presents a summary of the share-based compensation expense by equity type as follows: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Stock options $ 492 $ 593 $ 763 Restricted stock and stock units 1,341 1,446 1,442 Employee stock purchase plans 432 440 430 $ 2,265 $ 2,479 $ 2,635 A summary of the share-based compensation expense for stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and shares issued under the ESPP for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 is as follows: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Cost of sales $ 514 $ 578 $ 619 Selling 572 625 644 General and administrative 717 772 851 Product design and development 462 504 521 $ 2,265 $ 2,479 $ 2,635 We received $0 in cash from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 . The tax (expense) benefit related to non-qualified options and restricted stock units under all share-based payment arrangements totaled $(92) , $(52) , and $9 for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , respectively. |

Retirement Benefits | Note 14. Retirement Benefits We sponsor a 401(k) savings plan providing benefits for substantially all United States-based employees of Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries, subject to certain Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") limits. We made matching cash contributions equal to 50 percent of the employee's qualifying contribution up to six percent of such employee's compensation; however, effective April 1, 2020, we eliminated our matching contribution as one of our cost savings initiatives. Employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) savings plan upon completion of three months of continuous service if they have attained the age of 21 . We contributed $2,917 , $2,754 and $2,612 for matches to the plan for fiscal years 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , respectively. |

The pretax income attributable to domestic and foreign operations was as follows: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Domestic $ (4,187 ) $ (8,402 ) $ 9,235 Foreign 4,178 3,458 3,194 (Loss) income before income taxes $ (9 ) $ (4,944 ) $ 12,429 Income tax (benefit) expense consisted of the following: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Current: Federal $ 625 $ (2,142 ) $ 1,646 State 297 384 868 Foreign 761 1,151 1,205 Deferred: Federal (2,028 ) (2,725 ) 3,693 State (321 ) (390 ) 27 Foreign 166 (264 ) (572 ) $ (500 ) $ (3,986 ) $ 6,867 The reconciliation of the provision for income taxes and the amount computed by applying the federal statutory rate to income before income taxes is as follows: Year Ended May 2, April 27, April 28, Computed income tax (benefit) expense at federal statutory rates $ (2 ) $ (1,038 ) $ 3,779 Change in uncertain tax positions 4 (2,600 ) 65 Research and development tax credit (1,621 ) (1,278 ) (1,598 ) Other, net (241 ) 587 559 Change in valuation allowances 482 (471 ) (486 ) GILTI 149 391 — Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT) 301 — — Stock compensation 318 308 336 Meals and entertainment 305 248 333 Dividends paid to retirement plan (111 ) (158 ) (238 ) State taxes, net of federal benefit (84 ) 25 592 Impact of Tax Act — — 3,819 Domestic production activities deduction — — (294 ) $ (500 ) $ (3,986 ) $ 6,867 The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2020 was impacted due to the tax benefit of permanent tax credits reduced by a valuation allowance placed on equity investments in proportion to a small pre-tax book loss which results in an abnormal looking tax rate. During fiscal 2019, our effective income tax rate was impacted due to a tax benefit of a book loss plus permanent credits and deductions, the release of unrecognized tax benefits, and the reversal of a valuation allowance related to foreign net operating loss carryforwards. The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2018 was higher than the federal statutory rate primarily due to the impacts of the Tax Act signed into law on December 22, 2017, which included a re-measurement of deferred taxes resulting in an impact to tax expense and an estimated one-time transition tax on certain undistributed earnings for our foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Act reduced the federal normal statutory rate from 35 percent to 21 percent ; however, since we are a fiscal year tax filer, a blended rate of 30.4 percent was used for fiscal year 2018. The components of the net deferred tax assets were as follows: May 2, April 27, Deferred tax assets: Accrued warranty obligations $ 6,202 $ 5,912 Vacation accrual 1,753 1,571 Deferred maintenance revenue 987 716 Allowance for excess and obsolete inventory 1,318 1,340 Legal reserve 503 260 Equity compensation 396 486 Allowance for doubtful accounts 546 402 Inventory capitalization 822 567 Accrued compensation and benefits 539 549 Net operating loss carry forwards 919 1,059 Research and development tax credit carry forwards 1,975 1,299 Lease accounting - lease liability 2,099 — Other 1,035 1,647 Total deferred tax assets 19,094 15,808 Valuation allowance (1,189 ) (893 ) Net deferred tax assets 17,905 14,915 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment (2,141 ) (3,100 ) Lease accounting - right of use asset (2,103 ) — Prepaid expenses (440 ) (476 ) Intangible assets (317 ) (623 ) Unrealized gain on foreign currency exchange (17 ) (6 ) Other (68 ) (75 ) Total deferred tax liabilities (5,086 ) (4,280 ) Net deferred tax asset $ 12,819 $ 10,635 The classification of the net deferred tax assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is: May 2, April 27, Non-current assets $ 13,271 $ 11,168 Non-current liabilities (452 ) (533 ) $ 12,819 $ 10,635 The summary of changes in the amounts related to unrecognized uncertain tax benefits are: May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 Balance at beginning of year $ 578 $ 3,178 Gross increases related to prior period tax positions 17 13 Gross decreases related to prior period tax positions (2 ) (18 ) Gross increases related to current period tax positions 148 146 Lapse of statute of limitations (159 ) (2,741 ) Balance at end of year $ 582 $ 578 All of our unrecognized tax benefits would have an impact on the effective tax rate if recognized. It is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits could change due to one or more of the following events occurring in the next 12 months: expiring statutes, audit activity, tax payments, or competent authority proceedings. A statute of limitations relating to $138 of the unrecognized tax benefits (including interest) expires in the next 12 months. The benefit will be recognized if the statute lapses with no further action taken by regulators. Additionally, we recognized the release of $159 in unrecognized tax benefits related to the lapse of a statute of limitations in fiscal 2020. Interest and penalties incurred associated with uncertain tax positions are included in the "Income tax expense" line item in our consolidated statements of operations. Accrued interest and penalties are included in the related tax liability line item in our consolidated balance sheets of $30 and $26 as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. As of May 2, 2020 , we had foreign net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $4,832 primarily related to our operations in Belgium and Ireland, which have indefinite lives. A deferred tax asset has been recorded for all NOL carryforwards totaling approximately $919 . However, due to uncertainty in future taxable income, a valuation allowance totaling approximately $627 has been recorded in Belgium. If sufficient evidence of our ability to generate future taxable income in the jurisdictions in which we currently maintain a valuation allowance causes us to determine that our deferred tax assets are more likely than not realizable, we would release our valuation allowance, which would result in an income tax benefit being recorded in our consolidated statements of operations. Additional tax information: We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income taxes of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Fiscal years 2017, 2018 and 2019 remain open to federal tax examinations, and fiscal years 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 remain open for state income tax examinations. Certain subsidiaries are also subject to income tax in several foreign jurisdictions which have open tax years varying by jurisdiction beginning in fiscal 2008. In the event of any future tax assessments, we have elected to record the income taxes and any related interest and penalties as income tax expense in our consolidated statement of operations. As of May 2, 2020 , we had no deferred tax liability recognized relating to our investment in foreign subsidiaries where the earnings have been indefinitely reinvested. The Tax Act generally eliminates U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and, as a result, the accumulated undistributed earnings would be subject only to other taxes, such as withholding taxes and state income taxes, on the distribution of such earnings. No additional withholding or income taxes have been provided for any remaining undistributed foreign earnings not subject to the one-time deemed repatriation tax, as it is our intention for these amounts to continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations in all of our non-U.S. jurisdictions. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was enacted in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic. The CARES Act includes provisions such as: a deferral of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes, refundable payroll tax credits, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property, and permitting NOL incurred in tax years 2018, 2019, and 2020 (our fiscal years 2019, 2020, and 2021) to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. We are evaluating the specific rules, guidance, and procedures allowed by the provisions of the CARES Act. Some of these provisions do not apply to our income tax results; however, we are currently participating in the payment deferral of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurement | Note 17. Fair Value Measurement ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy within ASC 820 distinguishes between the following three Levels of inputs which may be utilized when measuring fair value: Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly (for example, quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets not considered to be active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or market-corroborated input). Level 3 - Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities. The fair values for fixed-rate long-term receivables are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on interest rates currently being offered for contracts with similar terms to customers with similar credit quality. The carrying amounts reported in our consolidated balance sheets for long-term receivables approximate fair value and have been categorized as a Level 2 fair value measurement. Fair values for fixed-rate long-term marketing obligations are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation applying interest rates currently being offered for debt with similar terms and underlying collateral. The total carrying value of long-term marketing obligations as reported in our consolidated balance sheets within other long-term obligations approximates fair value and has been categorized as a Level 2 fair value measurement. The following table sets forth by Level within the fair value hierarchy our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 according to the valuation techniques we used to determine their fair values. There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities among the fair value hierarchies presented. Fair Value Measurements Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Balance as of May 2, 2020: Cash and cash equivalents $ 40,398 $ — $ — $ 40,398 Restricted cash 14 — — 14 Available-for-sale securities: Certificates of deposit — 1,230 — 1,230 Derivatives - asset position — 261 — 261 Derivatives - liability position — (17 ) — (17 ) Acquisition-related contingent consideration — — (761 ) (761 ) $ 40,412 $ 1,474 $ (761 ) $ 41,125 Balance as of April 27, 2019: Cash and cash equivalents $ 35,383 $ — $ — $ 35,383 Restricted cash 359 — — 359 Available-for-sale securities: Certificates of deposit — 3,464 — 3,464 U.S. Government securities 10,774 — — 10,774 U.S. Government sponsored entities — 10,482 — 10,482 Municipal bonds — 1,624 — 1,624 Derivatives - asset position — 91 — 91 Derivatives - liability position — (4 ) — (4 ) Acquisition-related contingent consideration — — (3,065 ) (3,065 ) $ 46,516 $ 15,657 $ (3,065 ) $ 59,108 A roll forward of the Level 3 contingent liabilities, both short- and long-term, for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 is as follows: Acquisition-related contingent consideration as of April 27, 2019 $ 3,065 Additions 100 Settlements (2,491 ) Interest 50 Foreign currency translation 37 Acquisition-related contingent consideration as of May 2, 2020 $ 761 The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. There have been no changes in the valuation techniques used by us to value our financial instruments. Cash and cash equivalents : Consists of cash on hand in bank deposits and highly liquid investments, primarily money market accounts. The fair value was measured using quoted market prices in active markets. The carrying amount approximates fair value. Restricted cash : Consists of cash and cash equivalents held in bank deposit accounts to secure issuances of foreign bank guarantees. The fair value of restricted cash was measured using quoted market prices in active markets. The carrying amount approximates fair value. Certificates of deposit : Consists of time deposit accounts with original maturities of less than three years and various yields. The fair value of these securities was measured based on valuations observed in less active markets than Level 1 investments from a third-party financial institution. The carrying amount approximates fair value. U.S. Government securities : Consists of U.S. Government treasury bills, notes, and bonds with original maturities of less than three years and various yields. The fair value of these securities was measured using quoted market prices in active markets. U.S. Government sponsored entities : Consists of Fannie Mae and Federal Home Loan Bank investment grade debt securities trading with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of these securities was measured based on valuations observed in less active markets than Level 1 investments. The contractual maturities of these investments vary from one month to three years. Municipal bonds : Consists of investment grade municipal bonds trading with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. The contractual maturities of these investments vary from two to three years. The fair value of these bonds was measured based on valuations observed in less active markets than Level 1 investments. Derivatives – currency forward contracts : Consists of currency forward contracts trading with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of these securities was measured based on a valuation from a third-party bank. See " Note 18. Derivative Financial Instruments " for more information regarding our derivatives. Contingent liabilities : Consists of the fair value of liabilities measured on expected future payments relating to business acquisitions if conditions are met. The contingent liabilities were calculated by estimating the discounted present value of expected future payments as of the acquisition date and subsequently at the end of each reporting period. The fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 . The contingent liabilities are presented in the "Accrued expenses" and "Other long-term obligations" line items in our consolidated balance sheets. Non-recurring measurements: The fair value measurement standard also applies to certain non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Certain long-lived assets such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. Other measurements using fair value : Some of our financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, long-term receivables, prepaid expense and other assets, contract assets and liabilities, accounts payable, warranty obligations, and other long-term obligations, are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Note 18. Derivative Financial Instruments We utilize derivative financial instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates on those transactions denominated in currencies other than our functional currency, which is the U.S. dollar. We enter into currency forward contracts to manage these economic risks. We account for all derivatives in the consolidated balance sheets within accounts receivable or accounts payable measured at fair value, and changes in fair values are recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met for cash flow or net investment hedges. As of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , we had not designated any of our derivative instruments as accounting hedges, and thus we recorded the changes in fair value in the " Other (expense) income, net " line item in the consolidated statements of operations. The foreign currency exchange contracts in aggregated notional amounts in place to exchange U.S. dollars at May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 were as follows: May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 U.S. Dollars Foreign Currency U.S. Dollars Foreign Currency Foreign Currency Exchange Forward Contracts: U.S. Dollars/Australian Dollars 2,235 3,323 2,688 3,772 U.S. Dollars/Canadian Dollars 452 648 625 821 U.S. Dollars/British Pounds 3,160 2,424 3,547 2,680 U.S. Dollars/Euros 1,881 1,689 — — U.S. Dollars/Swiss Franc — — 927 925 U.S. Dollars/Malaysian Ringgit — — 60 246 As of May 2, 2020 , there was an asset and liability of $261 and $17 , respectively, and as of April 27, 2019 , there was an asset and liability of $91 and $4 , respectively, representing the fair value of foreign currency exchange forward contracts, which were determined using Level 2 inputs from a third-party bank. As of May 2, 2020 , all contracts mature within 11 months. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 19. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation: We are a party to legal proceedings and claims which arise during the ordinary course of business. We review our legal proceedings and claims, regulatory reviews and inspections, and other legal matters on an ongoing basis and follow appropriate accounting guidance when making accrual and disclosure decisions. We establish accruals for those contingencies when the incurrence of a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated, and we disclose the amount accrued and the amount of a reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued, if such disclosure is necessary for our financial statements to not be misleading. We do not record an accrual when the likelihood of loss being incurred is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated, or when the loss is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote, although disclosures will be made for material matters as required by ASC 450-20, Contingencies - Loss Contingencies . Our assessment of whether a loss is reasonably possible or probable is based on our assessment and consultation with legal counsel regarding the ultimate outcome of the matter following all appeals. As of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019, $2,072 and $1,072 , respectively, were included in the "Accrued expenses" line item in our consolidated balance sheets for a probable and reasonably estimated cost to settle a patent litigation claim. The costs are included in cost of sales in the High School Park and Recreation business unit for each fiscal year. For other unresolved legal proceedings or claims, we do not believe there is a reasonable probability that any material loss would be incurred. Accordingly, no material accrual or disclosure of a potential range of loss has been made related to these matters. We do not expect the ultimate liability of these unresolved legal proceedings or claims to have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity or capital resources. Warranties: See " Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies " for more information regarding warranties. During fiscal 2016, we discovered a warranty issue caused by a mechanical device failure within a module for displays primarily in our OOH application built prior to fiscal 2013. During fiscal 2020 , 2019 , and 2018 , we recognized warranty expense and estimated equipment service agreement losses for probable and reasonably estimated costs to remediate this issue of $0 , $2,427 , and $4,539 , respectively. Our contractual warranty arrangements have expired for products with this issue, and we do not expect material changes to the equipment service agreement accrual. The additional warranty expense in fiscal 2018 is primarily based on our decision to preserve our market leadership and for customer relationship purposes in certain cases beyond our contractual obligations. Changes in our warranty obligation for the fiscal years ended May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 consisted of the following: May 2, 2020 April 27, 2019 Beginning accrued warranty obligations $ 24,470 $ 29,953 Warranties issued during the period 10,629 9,239 Settlements made during the period (9,209 ) (16,715 ) Changes in accrued warranty obligations for pre-existing warranties during the period, including expirations (266 ) 1,993 Ending accrued warranty obligations $ 25,624 $ 24,470 Performance guarantees: We have entered into standby letters of credit and surety bonds with financial institutions relating to the guarantee of our future performance on contracts, primarily construction-type contracts. As of May 2, 2020 , we had outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds in the amount of $13,090 and $18,212 , respectively. Performance guarantees are issued to certain customers to guarantee the operation and installation of the equipment and our ability to complete a contract. These performance guarantees have various terms but are generally one year. We enter into written agreements with our customers, and those agreements often contain indemnification provisions that require us to make the customer whole if certain acts or omissions by us cause the customer financial loss. We make efforts to negotiate reasonable caps and limitations on the recovery of such damages. As of May 2, 2020 , we were not aware of any indemnification claim from a customer. Purchase commitments: From time to time, we commit to purchase inventory, advertising, cloud-based information systems, information technology maintenance and support services, and various other products and services over periods that extend beyond one year. As of May 2, 2020 , we were obligated under the following unconditional purchase commitments: Fiscal years ending Amount 2021 $ 4,775 2022 2,750 2023 1,754 2024 148 2025 113 Thereafter 40 $ 9,580 Investment in affiliates commitments : We agreed to invest an additional $5,000 in XDC by February 2021 if certain conditions are met. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of business | Nature of business : Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries are engaged principally in the design, market, and manufacture of a wide range of integrated electronic display systems and related products which are sold in a variety of markets throughout the world and the rendering of related maintenance and professional services. Our products are designed primarily to inform and entertain people through the communication of content. |
Fiscal year | Fiscal year : We operate on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year, with our fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to April 30 of each year. When April 30 falls on a Wednesday, the fiscal year ends on the preceding Saturday. Within each fiscal year, each quarter is comprised of 13-week periods following the beginning of each fiscal year. In each 53-week year, an additional week is added to the first quarter, and each of the last three quarters is comprised of a 13-week period. |
Principles of consolidation | Principles of consolidation : The consolidated financial statements include Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. |
Investments in affiliates | Investments in affiliates : Investments in affiliates over which we have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method of accounting, recording the investment at cost and then subsequently adjusting to account for our share of the affiliates profit or losses, in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures . Investments in affiliates over which we do not have the ability to exert significant influence over the affiliate's operating and financing activities are accounted for under the cost method of accounting, recording the investment at cost and then subsequently adjusting for any changes in ownership or dividends in accordance with the provisions of ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities . We have evaluated our relationships with our affiliates and have determined that these entities are not variable interest entities. Cash paid for investments in affiliates and loans to affiliates are included in the "Purchases of and loans to equity investment" line item in our consolidated statements of cash flows. Equity method investments as a whole are assessed for other-than-temporary impairments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates : The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; and our ability to continue as a going concern. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the estimated total costs on uniquely configured contracts and estimated costs to be incurred for product warranties and income taxes. Estimation processes are also used in inventory valuation, the allowance for doubtful accounts, share-based compensation, goodwill impairment, and extended warranty and product maintenance agreements. Changes in estimates are reflected in the periods in which they become known. |
Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents : All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and consist primarily of government repurchase agreements, savings accounts and money market accounts that are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. |
Restricted cash | Restricted cash : Restricted cash consists of cash and cash equivalents held in bank deposit accounts to secure issuances of foreign bank guarantees. |
Inventories | Inventories: In accordance with ASC 330, Inventory, our inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Cost is measured as the price of the components and allocated expenses for production or betterment of the inventory item. When we estimate net realizable value to be lower than cost, any necessary adjustments are charged to cost of sales in that period. In determining net realizable value, we review various factors such as current inventory levels, forecasted demand, costs of completion, and technological obsolescence. |
Allowance for doubtful accounts | Allowance for doubtful accounts: We make estimates regarding the collectability of our accounts receivable, long-term receivables, contract assets and other receivables. In evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts, we analyze specific balances, customer creditworthiness, changes in customer payment cycles, and current economic trends. If the financial condition of any customer were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of its ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. We charge off receivables at such time as it is determined collection will not occur in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables . |
Revenue from Contract with Customer | Revenue recognition : We adopted ASU 2014-09 and its related guidance under the modified retrospective method during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 by applying the guidance to all open contracts at the adoption date. The adoption of this standard did not materially change the timing or amount of revenue recognized, primarily based upon our assessment of "point in time" and "over time" revenue recognition. Our accounting policies and estimates as a result of adopting ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , are as follows: Contracts are identified and follow the revenue recognition policies when all of the following occur: we have evidence that all parties to the contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, we can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred, we can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable we will collect substantially all of the consideration to which we would be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. Pre-contract costs are generally expensed as incurred, unless they are directly associated with an anticipated contract and recoverability from that contract is probable. Pre-contract costs directly associated with anticipated contracts expected to be recoverable include $1,582 and $857 as of May 2, 2020 and April 27, 2019 , respectively. These are included in the "Inventories" line item in our consolidated balance sheets. At contract inception, we identify performance obligations by reviewing the agreement for material distinct goods and services. Goods and services are distinct when the customer can benefit from them on their own and our promises to transfer these items are identifiable from other promises within the contract. When we are contracted to provide a single promise (an integrated system), we often treat it as a single performance obligation if we are providing goods and services with the same pattern of transfer that are highly integrated or interdependent, that are modified or customized by other goods or services promised, or that provide a combined outcome for which the customer has contracted. When less interdependency or integration is necessary, or when the customer can benefit from distinct items, we separate the contract into multiple performance obligations. We account for extended warranties and other services ("service-type warranties") that represent a distinct service as a separate performance obligation. Our contracts can contain multiple components of transaction price. We evaluate each contract for these components and include fixed consideration, variable consideration, financing components, and non-cash consideration and exclude consideration payable to a customer and sales taxes in the transaction price. When we are responsible for site installations which include subcontracted work, we maintain the contractual responsibilities and risks and include the consideration for these services in the transaction price. When our contract contains variable consideration, including return rights, discounts, claims, unpriced change orders, and liquidated damages, we estimate the transaction price using the expected value (i.e., the sum of the probability-weighted amount) or the most likely amount method, whichever is expected to better predict revenue for that contract situation. We also constrain the revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. We consider the following factors in determining revenue associated with variable consideration: (a) the contract or other evidence providing the legal basis, (b) additional costs caused by unforeseen circumstances, (c) evidence supporting the claim, and (d) historical evidence and patterns of customers. We adjust the contract price for the effects of a significant financing component if we expect, at contract inception, that the period between when we transfer goods and services to a customer will exceed one year from the time the customer pays and represents financing. If the payment structures exceed a year but are structured to account for risks with a contract or correspond to payments on milestones or are scheduled for performance, we do not adjust the contract price for a financing component. See " Note 9. Receivables " for amounts recorded in long-term receivables. When separate performance obligations are identified, we allocate the transaction price to the individual performance obligation based on the best method we judge as faithfully depicting the value of the performance obligation. Many of our contracts are bundled, and we do not have separate selling prices for each performance obligation; therefore, for these contracts, we primarily use the cost plus a margin approach to allocate the relative transaction price to identified performance obligations, as it is the best representative of our pricing methods. Revenue is recognized when we satisfy a performance obligation. We receive payments from customers based on a billing schedule as established in our contracts. Billing schedules include down payments and progress billings over time; set milestone payments that are specific to the project are scheduled for performance-based payments or are set time-based payment(s). Variability in contract assets and contract liabilities relates to the timing of billings and revenue recognition, which can vary significantly depending on contractual payment terms and build and installation schedules and the related timing differences in transfer of control. Balances are also impacted by the seasonality in our business. Significant judgments and estimates are used in our revenue policies. Throughout the revenue cycle, we evaluate contractual evidence, monitor our performance, evaluate variable consideration changes, update estimated costs to complete cost-to-cost projects, and obtain evidence of deliveries or other control change evidence for appropriate and consistent revenue recognition. We maintain internal policies and procedures to provide guidance for those involved in recording revenue. We monitor for changes in our business sales practices and customer interactions to capture the appropriate types of performance obligations and adjust for any change in control terms and conditions. Our material performance obligation types include: Unique configuration contracts : audio-visual communication systems uniquely configured (custom) or integrated for a customer's particular location and system configuration may include all or a combination of the following: engineering services, project management services, video display(s), control solution(s), installation and integration services, scoring and messaging equipment, training, other on-site services, spare parts, software licenses, and assurance-type warranties. We may have multiple performance obligations in these types of contracts; however a majority are treated as a combined single performance obligation. In our judgment, this accounting treatment is most appropriate because the substantial part of our promise to customers is to provide significant integration services and incorporate individual goods and services into a combined output or system. Often times, the system is customized or significantly modified to the customer's desired configurations and location, and the interrelated goods and services provide utility to the customer as a package. Revenue for uniquely configured (custom) or integrated systems is recognized over time using the cost incurred input method. Over time revenue recognition is appropriate because we have no alternative use for the uniquely configured system and have an enforceable right to payment for work performed. The cost incurred input method measures costs incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is the most faithful depiction of our performance because it measures the value of the contract transferred to the customer. Costs to perform include direct and indirect costs for contract design, production, integration, installation, and assurance-type warranty reserve. Direct costs include material and components; manufacturing, project management and engineering labor; and subcontracting expenses. Indirect costs include allocated charges for such items as facilities and equipment depreciation and general overhead. Provisions of estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period when such losses are capable of being estimated. Contract modifications to existing contracts with customers are evaluated in accordance with the five-step revenue model. We treat contract modifications as a separate contract and new performance obligations when the additional goods or services are distinct and do not add to the unique configuration or are outside the integrated system and when the consideration reflects standalone selling prices. If the additional goods or services offered under the modification enhance the uniquely configured or integrated systems, revenue is allocated to the existing contracts' performance obligation. Modifications may cause changes in the timing of revenue recognition depending on the allocation to various performance obligations. The time between contract order and project completion is typically less than 12 months but may extend longer depending on the amount of custom work and customers’ delivery needs. Limited configuration (standard systems) and after-sale parts contracts : Limited configured (standard systems) or after-sale parts contracts with limited or no configuration or limited integration are recognized as distinct individual performance obligations when material. When not distinct, we combine into one performance obligation the goods and/or services with each other until the bundle of goods or services is distinct. For standard display purchases made in large quantities, we account for each piece of equipment separately as a distinct performance obligation from which a customer derives benefit. Immaterial goods or services in the context of the contract are included with the display system performance obligation. Standard systems and equipment with limited configurations or integrations may include all or a combination (when immaterial) of the following performance obligations: engineering services, project management services, video display(s), control solution(s), installation and integration services, scoring, messaging and audio equipment, training, spare parts, software licenses, assurance-type warranties, and after-sale parts. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when control passes, or over time as services are performed. When fulfilling limited configuration performance obligations, we are typically able to redirect the video displays or scoring, messaging, or audio equipment to another customer without incurring significant economic losses. Therefore, we have an alternative use for the performance obligation and recognize revenue upon our substantial completion and at the point in time we estimate control has transferred to the customer. When limited configured single performance obligations are more service-type (i.e., installation and integration services), we recognize revenue over time using the cost-to-cost input method, which is the most faithful depiction of the customer obtaining control and benefits from the work performed. Services and other : Services sold on a stand-alone basis or after the initial system sale include performance obligations such as event support, control room design, on-site training, equipment service, service-type warranties, technical support, software sold as a service, and other immaterial revenue streams. These are contracted with a customer generally per service event or service type on a stand-alone basis. Services, service type warranties, and other are recognized as net sales when the services are performed, and control is transferred to the customer at a point in time when title or control passes or over time as services are performed and for time-based "stand ready to perform" type obligations. We use professional judgment to determine control transfer. If we have the right to consideration from a customer that directly corresponds with the value of our performance (where we bill a fixed amount for each hour of service provided), we recognize revenue related to the work completed. Software: Revenues from software license fees on sales, other than uniquely configured type contracts, are recognized when delivery of the product has occurred. Subscription-based licenses include the right for a customer to use our licenses and receive related support for a specified term, and revenue is recognized pro-rata over the term of the engagement. Shipping and handling costs: Shipping and handling costs collected from our customers in connection with our sales are recorded as revenue. We record shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of sales at the time the product is shipped. Warranty: We offer a standard parts coverage warranty for periods varying from one to five years for most of our products. We also offer additional types of warranties to include on-site labor, routine maintenance and event support. In addition, the terms of warranties on some installations can vary from one to 10 years. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary primarily depending on the type of product sold. We estimate the costs which may be incurred under the contractual warranty obligations (assurance type warranty) and record a liability in the amount of such estimated costs at the time the revenue is recognized. Factors affecting our estimate of the cost of our warranty obligations include historical experience and expectations of future conditions. We continually assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty accruals and, to the extent we experience any changes in warranty claim activity or costs associated with servicing those claims, our accrued warranty obligation is adjusted accordingly. For service-type warranty contracts, we allocate revenue to this performance obligation, recognize the revenue over time, and recognize costs as incurred. |
Revenue Recognition, Long-term Receivables and Advertising Rights [Policy Text Block] | Long-term receivables and advertising rights: We occasionally sell and install our products at facilities in exchange for the rights to sell or to retain future advertising revenues. For these transactions, we recognize revenue equal to the amount of the present value of the future advertising payments if enough advertising is sold to obtain normal margins on the contract, and we record the related receivable in long-term receivables. We recognize imputed interest as earned. |
Property and equipment | Property and equipment : In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated principally on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Years Buildings and improvements 5 - 40 Machinery and equipment 5 - 7 Office furniture and equipment 3 - 5 Computer software and hardware 3 - 5 Equipment held for rental 2 - 7 Demonstration equipment 3 - 5 Transportation equipment 5 - 7 Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Property and equipment held for sale: In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, property and equipment held for sale are reported separately when we have a plan to dispose of the asset by sale, it is probable we will find a buyer in the near future, and a change in plan is unlikely. The value is stated at the lower of carrying value or fair value, and no depreciation is charged. |
Impairment of long-lived assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets : In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment , we assess long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. When evaluating long-lived assets for potential impairment, we first compare the carrying value of the asset to the asset's estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges). If the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, we calculate an impairment loss. The impairment loss calculation compares the carrying value of the asset to the asset's estimated fair value. We recognize an impairment loss if the amount of the asset's carrying value exceeds the asset's estimated fair value. If we recognize an impairment loss, the adjusted carrying amount of the asset becomes its new cost basis. For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new cost basis will be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset. Our impairment loss calculations contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values, including forecasting useful lives of the assets and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent in future cash flows. |
Goodwill and other intangible assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets : We account for goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other. Under these provisions, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. Impairment testing is required more often than annually if an event or circumstance indicates an impairment or a decline in value may have occurred. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, a worsening trend of orders and sales without a corresponding way to preserve future cash flows or a significant decline in our stock price. In conducting our impairment testing, we utilize step 0 which allows us to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If, based on a review of qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value we perform a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, we measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. If a quantitative analysis is performed, we utilize an income approach to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. We selected this method because we believe it most appropriately measures our income producing assets. We considered using the market approach and cost approach, but concluded they were not appropriate in valuing our reporting units given the lack of relevant and available market comparisons. The income approach is based on the projected cash flows, which are discounted to their present value using discount rates which consider the timing and risk of the forecasted cash flows. We believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon the reporting unit's expected long-term operating cash performance. This approach also mitigates the impact of the cyclical trends occurring in the industry. Fair value is estimated using internally developed forecasts and assumptions. The discount rate used is the average estimated value of a market participant’s cost of capital and debt, derived using customary market metrics. Other significant assumptions include terminal value margin rates, future capital expenditures, and changes in future working capital requirements. We also compare and reconcile our overall fair value to our market capitalization. Although there are inherent uncertainties related to the assumptions used and to our application of these assumptions to this analysis, we believe the income approach provides a reasonable estimate of the fair value of our reporting units. The foregoing assumptions to a large degree were consistent with our long-term performance, with limited exceptions. We believe our future investments for capital expenditures as a percent of revenue will remain similar to the historical rates as a percentage of sales in future years. Our investments are expected to relate to equipment replacements and new product line manufacturing equipment needs, and to keep our information technology infrastructure robust. These assumptions could deviate materially from actual results. |
Software cost to be sold, leased, or marketed | Software costs to be sold, leased, or marketed: We follow the provisions of ASC 985, Software , which states software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. At such time, such costs are capitalized until the product is made available for release to customers. Additionally, costs incurred after release to customers are expensed as research and development expenses. |
Foreign currency translation | Foreign currency translation : We follow the provisions of ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Our foreign subsidiaries use the local currency of their respective countries as their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are generally translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The operating results of foreign operations are translated at weighted average exchange rates. The related translation gains or losses are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss . |
Income taxes | Income taxes : We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes . We record a tax provision for anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using currently enacted tax rates and statutory tax rates applicable to the years in which we expect these temporary differences will affect taxable income. These assets and liabilities are analyzed regularly, and we assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recoverable from future taxable income. When necessary, a valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We report the net deferred tax asset and liability as a long-term asset or liability. Net deferred assets or liabilities are calculated by combining them based on their jurisdiction. In addition, because we operate in multiple income tax jurisdictions both within the United States and internationally, the calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with our expectations could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results. See " Note 15. Income Taxes " for further information. |
Comprehensive (loss) income | Comprehensive (loss) income : We follow the provisions of ASC 220, Reporting Comprehensive Income , which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components, and disclose these components in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Comprehensive (loss) income reflects the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. For us, comprehensive income represents net income adjusted for cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. The foreign currency translation adjustment included in the comprehensive income calculation has not been tax affected, as the investments in foreign affiliates are deemed to be permanent. |
Product design and development | Product design and development : We follow the provisions of ASC 730, Research and Development , which states all expenses related to product design and development are charged to operations as incurred. Our product design and development activities include the enhancement of existing products and technologies and the development of new products and technologies. |
Advertising costs | Advertising costs : In accordance with ASC 720-35, Advertising Costs , we expense advertising costs as incurred. |
Earnings per share (EPS) | Earnings per share (“EPS”) : We follow the provisions of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, where basic EPS is computed by dividing income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution which may occur if securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock which share in our earnings. |
Share-based compensation | Share-based compensation : We account for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, we measure share-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize the compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. See " Note 13. Shareholders’ Equity and Share-Based Compensation " for additional information and the assumptions we use to calculate the fair value of share-based employee compensation. |
Recent accounting pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (that is, lessees and lessors). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. ASU 2016-02 requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842 (Leases) and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements , which provide (i) narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard, (ii) entities with an additional transition method to adopt the new standard, and (iii) lessors with a practical expedient for separating components of a contract. We adopted ASU 2016-02 and its related guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 for all agreements existing as of April 28, 2019. We elected the "comparatives under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 840 option" as a transitional method, which allows us to initially apply the new lease requirements at the effective date. Comparative periods were not adjusted and will continue to be reported in accordance with prior lease guidance under ASC 840. We elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. In addition, we have elected the short-term lease recognition whereby we will not recognize operating leases related assets or liabilities for leases with a lease term of less than one year. We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components in the lease payments for all asset classes. This adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows, and there was no adjustment to retained earnings. As of April 28, 2019, we recognized a right of use asset for operating leases of $11,101 and a current and non-current lease liability for operating leases of $2,745 and $8,356 , respectively. The right of use operating assets are included in the "Investment in affiliates and other assets" line item, the current lease liabilities are included in the "Accrued expenses" line item, and the non-current lease liabilities are included in the "Other long-term obligations" line item in our consolidated balance sheets. See " Note 12. Leases " for more information. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) , which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment requires an entity to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. A goodwill impairment will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and will require adoption on a prospective basis. We are currently evaluating the effect that adopting ASU 2017-04 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which provides guidance regarding the measurement and recognition of credit impairment for certain financial assets. ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and will require adoption on a modified retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the effect that adopting ASU 2016-13, including all subsequent amendments and improvements to ASC Topic 326 issued by FASB, will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
