Analysis
Daktronics, Inc (DAKT) currently trades at $21.43, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $14.63, implying the stock looks roughly 31.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 52/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Daktronics, Inc generated revenue of $803M at a net margin of 3.4%. Revenue grew 21.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $111M. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $11.55 (bear case) to $17.72 (bull case); at $21.43, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 24% below its 52-week high and 61% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -73% fair-value upside, at -32%, DAKT screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 15 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($20.30) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0300). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
