Daktronics (NASDAQ: DAKT) corrects terms in performance unit plan

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Daktronics, Inc. filed an Amendment No. 1 to a prior Form 8-K to correct an administrative error in a previously filed executive compensation document. The company had earlier disclosed a form of performance-based restricted stock unit agreement for named executive officers under its 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, but the version filed as Exhibit 10.1 mistakenly included a superseded Exhibit B with terms that did not match those adopted by the Compensation Committee on July 28, 2025.

This amendment replaces that exhibit with the final, approved Form PSU Agreement, including the correct Exhibit B, as the new Exhibit 10.1. All other items from the original Form 8-K remain unchanged, except for the updated Item 9.01 exhibit list, which now also references a Termination Agreement with Bradley T. Wiemann and the cover page Inline XBRL data file.

Explanatory Note

On August 1, 2025, Daktronics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which disclosed, among other things, a form of performance-based restricted stock unit agreement (the “Form PSU Agreement”) for the use in granting awards to certain of the Company’s named executive officers pursuant to the Company’s executive compensation program for the 2026 fiscal year and the 2020 Daktronics, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan. As previously disclosed in the Original Form 8-K, the Form PSU Agreement was adopted by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company on July 28, 2025.

Due to an inadvertent administrative error, the version of the Form PSU Agreement that was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Original Form 8-K (the “Original Form PSU Agreement”) included a previous and superseded version of Exhibit B to the Form PSU Agreement that contains certain terms that are inconsistent with those adopted by the Committee. This Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 8-K (the “Amendment”) is being filed solely to replace the Original Form PSU Agreement with a corrected version of the Form PSU Agreement, including the final and approved version of Exhibit B thereto, as Exhibit 10.1.

All Items of the Original Form 8-K other than Item 9.01 of the Original Form 8-K remain unaffected by this Amendment and are not amended or included herein.
