**Section 7 - Regulation FD**

**Item 7.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Regulation FD Disclosure**

As previously disclosed on January 25, 2023, the board of directors (the "Board") of Daktronics, Inc. (the "Company") formed a Strategy and Financing Review Committee (the "Committee") to address the Company's near-term credit needs and to examine alternatives for improving the Company's longer-term financial structure and liquidity profile.

In connection with this process, the Company commenced discussions with certain potential financing sources to facilitate a potential financing transaction. The Company entered into confidentiality agreements (collectively, the "NDAs") with such potential financing sources in connection therewith. Pursuant to the NDAs, the Company agreed to publicly disclose certain confidential information regarding the Company that was provided to the parties to the NDAs (the "Cleansing Material"). The Cleansing Material is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1. The Cleansing Material was prepared by the Company solely to facilitate discussions with the parties to the NDAs, was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure, and should not be relied upon to make an investment decision with respect to the Company. The Cleansing Material should not be regarded as an indication that the Company or any third party considers the Cleansing Material to be a reliable prediction of future events, and the Cleansing Material should not be relied upon as such.

Neither the Company nor any third party has made or makes any representation to any person regarding the accuracy of the Cleansing Material or undertakes any obligation to update the Cleansing Material to reflect circumstances existing after the date when the Cleansing Material was prepared or conveyed or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even if any of the information set forth in the Cleansing Material or the assumptions underlying the Cleansing Material are shown to be inaccurate or in error.

There can be no assurance that the Committee's process will result in any transaction or other alternative outcome. There is no set timetable for the conclusion of this process, and the Company does not intend to disclose or provide an update concerning developments relating to this process until it determines that further disclosure is appropriate or necessary.

The information in Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that section. Further, the information in Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing. Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.

**Forward-Looking Statements** 

This Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words "may," "would," "could," "should," "will," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "intend," "plan," "project," "potential," "forecast" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any and all forecasts and projections in this document are "forward looking statements" and are based on management's current expectations or beliefs. From time to time, we may also provide oral and written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, such as press releases, presentations to securities analysts or investors, or other communications by us. Any or all forward-looking statements in this report and in any public statements we make could be materially different from actual results. Accordingly, we wish to caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the uncertainties related to market conditions and entry into a financing transaction; the Company's potential need to seek additional strategic alternatives, including seeking additional debt or equity capital or other strategic transactions and/or measures; the Company's ability to finalize or fully execute actions and steps that would be probable of mitigating the existence of "substantial doubt" regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern; the Company's ability to increase cash flow to support the Company's operating activities and fund its obligations and working capital needs; and the other risk factors described more fully in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 and the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended July 30, 2022 and

February 2023 / Confidential INVESTOR PRESENTATION

------

![](projectcougarinvestmentp002.jpg)

February 2023 / Confidential 1 DISCLAIMER This Investor Presentation, including any oral statements made in connection herewith (the "Presentation"), is provided for informational purposes only and has been prepared by Daktronics, Inc. (the "Company" or "Daktronics") and is being furnished to a limited number of parties solely for the purpose of considering a transaction with the Company (the "Potential Transaction"). This Presentation is intended solely for investors that are, and by receiving this Presentation, the recipient expressly confirms that they are, qualified institutional buyers or institutions, entities or persons that are accredited investors (as such terms are defined under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")). This Presentation does not constitute a commitment on the part of the Company to provide the recipient with access to any additional information or to execute the Potential Transaction. The information in this Presentation has not been independently verified. None of the Company, their respective affiliates or their respective employees, directors, officers, contractors, advisors, members, successors, representatives or agents make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of this Presentation, and shall have no liability for any representations or warranties (expressed or implied) contained in, or for any omissions from or errors in, this Presentation or any other written or oral communications transmitted to the recipient in the course of its evaluation of the Company. Only those representations and warranties as may be contained in a definitive agreement relating to the Potential Transaction shall have any legal effect. The information in this Presentation is valid as of the date hereof and is subject to change. The Company is under no obligation to update, amend or supplement this Presentation or any information contained herein and disclaims any obligation to do so except as required by law. The information in this Presentation includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "assume," "believe," "budget," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "initial," "intend," "may," "model," "plan," "potential," "project," "seek," "should," "target," "will," "would" and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of such words does not mean a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements in this Presentation relate to, among other things, the Company's future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments and preliminary terms of the Potential Transaction, general market conditions and other aspects of the Company's business and prospects and those of other industry participants. The forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of the Company's experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors that the Company believes are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to be materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning such risks and uncertainties can be found in the Company's periodic filings with the SEC, including Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022, and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. This Presentation contains material non-public information, and the viewing of these materials may have implications under U.S. securities laws. By accepting this Presentation, recipients are acknowledging they are (i) aware that the United States securities laws restrict persons with material non-public information about a company obtained directly or indirectly from that company from purchasing or selling securities of such company, or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities on the basis of such information and (ii) familiar with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and that they will neither use, nor cause any third party to use, this Presentation or any information contained herein in contravention of the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 thereunder. This Presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures of the Company. These non-GAAP financial measures, which include EBITDA and EBITDA Margin, have been presented in order to aid understanding in the Company's financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation are not meant to be a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and are not intended to be considered in isolation from, in substitution for, or superior to the Company's financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The Company defines EBITDA Margin as EBITDA divided by net sales. See the appendix for a reconciliation of these measures to the Company's most comparable GAAP financial measures. Additionally, this Presentation also contains the metrics orders and backlog, which are not measures defined by GAAP, and out methodology for determining orders and backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies in determining their orders and backlog amounts. Backlog represents the dollar value of orders for integrated electronic display systems and related products and services which are expected to be recognized in net sales in the future. Orders are contractually binding commitments from customers. Orders are included in backlog when we are in receipt of an executed contract and any required depots or security and have not yet been recognized into net sales. This Presentation does not include a reconciliation of orders or backlog, as it is impractical to do so without unreasonable effort. This Presentation is being made available only to parties who have signed and returned a confidentiality agreement with the Company in connection with the Potential Transaction (the "Confidentiality Agreement") and recipients are therefore bound by the Confidentiality Agreement in respect of all information contained in this Presentation. In the event of a discrepancy between the Presentation (including the disclaimer) and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement will govern. The Company reserves the right, at any time, to negotiate with one or more interested parties or to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to, or to determine not to proceed with, any Potential Transaction, without prior notice to any other interested parties. The Company reserves the right to terminate, at any time, and for any or no reason, further participation by any party and to modify any other procedures. The Company shall have no legal commitment or obligation to any recipient of this Presentation unless and until a definitive agreement for the Potential Transaction has been fully negotiated, executed, delivered and approved by the Company and such recipient. This Presentation shall not constitute an offer, nor a solicitation of an offer, of the sale or purchase of securities, nor shall any securities of the Company be offered or sold, in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the transactions contemplated hereby or determined if this Presentation is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Recipients of this Presentation should not construe the contents hereof to constitute legal, tax, regulatory, financial, accounting or other advice. Any recipient of this Presentation should seek advice from its own independent tax advisor, legal counsel and/or other advisor with respect to such matters. By accepting this Presentation, the recipient agrees that neither the recipient nor the recipient's agents or representatives will directly contact the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers or related parties or affiliates at any time with respect to the Potential Transaction or the information herein. Although all information and opinions expressed in this Presentation, including market data and other statistical information, were obtained from sources believed to be reliable and are included in good faith, the Company has not independently verified the information and makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to its accuracy or completeness.

The Company owns or has rights to various trademarks, service marks and trade names that it uses in connection with the operation of its business. This Presentation also contains trademarks, service marks and trade names of third parties, which are the property of their respective owners.
