Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events New Credit Facility On November 26, 2025, the Company entered into the New Credit Facility with the Administrative Agent, the Lenders (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), and the other Loan Parties (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) pursuant to the New Credit Agreement. The New Credit Facility created pursuant to the New Credit Agreement is comprised of: • a $60,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), maturing on November 26, 2028 (the “Maturity Date”); and •an $11,500 term loan (the "New Term Loan"), amortizing in equal quarterly installments of $288, with the remaining principal due on the Maturity Date. Under the New Credit Agreement, both the Revolver and the New Term Loan are guaranteed by the Loan Parties and secured by perfected, first priority liens on personal property of the Company and the other Loan Parties pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement executed between and among the Company, Daktronics Installation (collectively with the Company and any additional entities that may become parties thereto, the "Grantors"), and the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the secured parties thereto under the New Credit Agreement (the "New Security Agreement") and other Collateral Documents (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). The New Security Agreement, which replaced the prior Pledge and Security Agreement, establishes a security interest in substantially all of the personal property and assets of the Grantors and secures the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Grantors' obligations under the New Credit Agreement and related loan documents. In connection with the execution of the New Security Agreement, the Grantors also executed other Collateral Documents customary for transactions of this type, including intellectual property security agreements in order to facilitate recordation and perfection of the underlying intellectual property assets. Each borrowing under the New Credit Facility will accrue interest at one of the following rates to be selected by the Company, in its discretion: (i) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a 0.10% margin; (ii) the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a 0.10% margin; or (iii) the CB Floating Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) with a 0.00% margin. Amounts repaid under the New Term Loan may not be reborrowed. Undrawn commitments under the Revolver accrue a commitment fee of 0.20% per year. Letters of Credit (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) issued under the Revolver accrue customary fees and generally must expire no later than five business days prior to the Maturity Date. The financial covenants under the New Credit Agreement include a maximum quarterly Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) of 3.00 to 1.00 and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) of 1.25 to 1.00. There is a limited ability to exclude certain unfinanced capital expenditures from these calculations when specified liquidity thresholds are met. These covenants apply to borrowings under both the Revolver and the New Term Loan. Proceeds may be used for refinancing existing debt and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The New Credit Agreement includes customary representations, covenants, and events of default, including limitations on incurring additional debt, liens, investments, asset sales, restricted payments, and affiliate transactions. In connection with entering into the New Credit Agreement and the New Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Pledge and Security Agreement, and other documents related to the Credit Facility were terminated, all outstanding payment obligations under the Credit Agreement were repaid in full, and all associated liens, including the mortgage recorded against the Company's Brookings, South Dakota real property, and other obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility were released, except for the following obligations, each of which will survive the termination of the Credit Agreement and related loan documents: (i) obligations specified in the Credit Agreement or related loan documents as surviving such agreement’s termination, such as indemnification and confidentiality; (ii) any Existing Letter of Credit (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), each of which constitutes a Letter of Credit (as defined in the New Credit Agreement); (iii) any filings made by the Administrative Agent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office with respect to security interests in intellectual property of the Loan Parties; or (iv) any UCC-1 Financing Statements previously filed by the Administrative Agent, as secured party, and any Loan Party as the debtor, regardless of whether any such UCC-1 Financing Statement was filed in connection with the Credit Agreement or any related loan documents. There were no material early termination penalties incurred by the Company as a result of the termination of the Credit Agreement.
