Summary
Daktronics extended its consulting arrangement with former named executive officer Carla Gatzke for an additional four months through late August 2026. The amended agreement reduces her monthly compensation by 75% to $7,500 and limits her role to project-specific advisory work at the company's request, down from broader transition services under the original terms. This represents a routine wind-down of a post-employment consulting relationship.
The reduced scope and fee suggest the company is completing its transition away from Gatzke's institutional knowledge with minimal ongoing cost. For retail holders, this is an immaterial governance matter with no impact on operations or strategy.
