Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Note 1. Basis of Presentation Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Daktronics”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) are the world's industry leader in designing and manufacturing electronic scoreboards, programmable display systems and large screen video displays for sporting, commercial and transportation applications. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from those estimates. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The balance sheet at May 2, 2020, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but it does not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended May 2, 2020, which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. Daktronics, Inc. operates 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 year ending May 1, 2021 will consist of 52 weeks and the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020 was a 53-week year; therefore, the nine months ended January 30, 2021 contains operating results for 39 weeks while the nine months ended February 1, 2020 contains operating results for 40 weeks. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the totals of the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. We have bank guarantees that are secured with cash collateral which is maintained in the restricted cash account.

Other Business Developments - Coronavirus Pandemic During the first nine months of fiscal 2021, we continued to see impacts of the global spread of the coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19") and restrictions, which created and continues to create significant volatility, uncertainty and global economic disruption. As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 1, 2020, we have taken proactive steps to solidify our financial position and mitigate any adverse consequences. These steps included preserving liquidity by drawing down $15,000 of our existing line of credit, which is included in the "Other long-term obligations" line item in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we are pursuing other sources of financing, reducing investments in capital assets, have reduced executive pay and board member compensation, and have or are continuing to institute initiatives to reduce other costs in the business. Our board of directors voted to suspend stock repurchases under our share repurchase program and to suspend dividends for the foreseeable future. In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and throughout fiscal 2021, we have temporarily furloughed employees to manage our cost structure to align with decreased demand. We believe these measures help to preserve our ability to borrow for liquidity needs and position us well for when the pandemic passes and our customers and economies begin to recover. During fiscal 2020, we offered a special voluntary retirement and voluntary exit incentive program ("Offering") and during the first nine months of fiscal 2021, we conducted two reductions in force ("RIF") to adjust our capacity and reduce on-going expenses due to the reduced revenue and uncertainties created by the COVID-19 pandemic. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, 60 employees agreed to participate in the Offering and completed employment. The approximate cost of this Offering was $931 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Under the RIF, employment was terminated with 108 employees with severance totaling $1,426 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and 150 employees with severance totaling $2,742 during the second quarter of fiscal 2021. We received governmental wage subsidies from various governmental programs related to COVID implications of $254 and $1,632 during the three and nine months ended January 30, 2021, respectively and recorded as a reduction of compensation expense, which is mostly included in the "Costs of sales" line item in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We also have elected to defer payments of the employer portion of social security taxes during the payroll tax deferral period, which ended on December 31, 2020. As of January 30, 2021 the total amount of such deferral was $5,122, which is included in the "Accrued expenses" and in the "Other long-term obligations" line items in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Per the terms of the deferral program, 50 percent of the deferred amount is due on December 31, 2021 with the remaining 50 percent due on December 31, 2022. Recent Accounting Pronouncements There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 2, 2020, other than described in the Accounting Standards Adopted section below. Accounting Standards Adopted In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("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. We adopted ASU 2017-04 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and the adoption did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 improves financial reporting by requiring more timely recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. Under the new guidance, the ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. We adopted ASU 2016-13 and its related guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. We estimate an allowance for doubtful accounts using a loss rate method. We measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows:
|  | Allowance |
|  | for Doubtful |
|  | Accounts: |
Balance as of May 2, 2020 |  | $ | 2,828 |
Charged to costs and expenses |  |  | 2,724 |
Deductions (1) |  |  | (1,392 | )
Balance as of January 30, 2021 |  | $ | 4,160 |
(1) Includes account collections and write offs Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted There are no significant ASU's issued not yet adopted as of January 30, 2021.
