The current case for continuing to hold
The stored model values Daktronics Inc at $20.00 per share against $18.63. The case rests on the conditions below.
| Reason to hold | Supporting evidence | Contrary evidence | Condition to review |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue growth (yr 1): 10%Supported by the reviewed evidence | Trailing 4-year revenue CAGR of 10.0%, faded toward terminal growth over 5 years. | None in the last 45 days | Re-underwrite if revenue growth, margins, or the cost of capital diverge materially from the stored assumptions. |
| Operating margin (steady-state): 6.26%Supported by the reviewed evidence | Anchored to mean operating margin of 6.3% across the last 4 reported periods. | None in the last 45 days | Re-underwrite if revenue growth, margins, or the cost of capital diverge materially from the stored assumptions. |
| Discount rate (WACC): 12.32%Supported by the reviewed evidence | CAPM baseline: 5.21% risk-free + β1.29 × 5.5% ERP = 12.32%. | None in the last 45 days | Re-underwrite if revenue growth, margins, or the cost of capital diverge materially from the stored assumptions. |
