NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Daktronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Daktronics”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) are the world's industry leader in designing and manufacturing electronic scoreboards, programmable display systems and large screen video displays for sporting, commercial and transportation applications.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from those estimates.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The balance sheet at May 1, 2021 , has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but it does not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended May 1, 2021 , which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10 -K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.

Daktronics, Inc. operates on a 52 - or 53 -week fiscal year, with our fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to April 30 of each year. When April 30 falls on a Wednesday, the fiscal year ends on the preceding Saturday. Within each fiscal year, each quarter is comprised of 13 -week periods following the beginning of each fiscal year. In each 53 -week year, an additional week is added to the first quarter, and each of the last three quarters is comprised of a 13 -week period. The six months ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020 , contained operating results for 26 weeks.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the totals of the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Restricted cash consists of cash and cash equivalents held in bank deposit accounts to secure issuances of foreign bank guarantees.

Other Business Developments - Coronavirus Pandemic

During fiscal 2021, the global spread of the coronavirus pandemic ("COVID- 19" ) and resulting restrictions negatively impacted our business and created significant volatility, uncertainty and global economic disruption. We took proactive steps to solidify our financial position and mitigate any adverse consequences. Our orders and sales decline in fiscal 2021 are largely the result of the impacts of the pandemic. To align our expenses to the change in the market, we reduced investments in capital assets, reduced executive pay and board member compensation for fiscal 2021 and instituted initiatives to reduce other costs in the business. On April 1, 2020, our board of directors voted to suspend stock repurchases under our share repurchase program and to suspend dividends. In addition, throughout fiscal 2021, we temporarily furloughed employees to manage our cost structure to align with decreased demand.

A special voluntary retirement and voluntary exit incentive program ("Offering") and two reductions in force ("RIFs") were instituted during the first six months of fiscal 2021 to adjust our capacity and reduce on-going expenses in response to the reduced revenue and uncertainties created by the COVID- 19 pandemic. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021 , 60 employees agreed to participate in the Offering and completed employment. The approximate cost of this Offering was $ 931 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 . Under the RIFs, employment was terminated with 108 employees with severance totaling $ 1,426 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and 150 employees with severance totaling $ 2,742 during the second quarter of fiscal 2021 .

We received governmental wage subsidies from various governmental programs related to COVID implications of $ 280 and $ 1,378 during the six months ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020 , respectively and recorded the subsidies as a reduction of compensation expense, most of is included in the "Costs of sales" line item in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We also have elected to defer payments of the employer portion of social security taxes during the payroll tax deferral period, which ended on December 31, 2020. As of October 30, 2021 , the total amount of such deferral was $ 5,122 , which is included in the "Accrued expenses" in the current liabilities and in the "Other long-term obligations" line items in long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Per the terms of the deferral program, 50 percent of the deferred amount is due on December 31, 2021, with the remaining 50 percent due on December 31, 2022.

The pandemic continues to evolve, as evidenced by the recent Omicron variant reports, impacting economic and business conditions. We continue to monitor guidance from international and domestic authorities regarding the COVID- 19 pandemic and may take additional actions based on their requirements and recommendations. Since late fiscal 2021, our order and quoting activities have increased, creating a strong backlog and positive outlook; however, there is no assurance that this trend will continue in future quarters. Supply chain disruptions continue as a result of several factors including the pandemic, shipping container shortages, labor shortages, and the changes in global demand. Specifically, we are impacted by the global shortage of semiconductors and related electronic components, labor and other materials needed for production, and freight availability. We have experienced increased input costs including material, freight, and tariff costs and increased personal spend through the first half of the fiscal year. We expect continued disruptions in obtaining material, labor, and freight availability and an increase in inflation as the world economies react to and recover from the pandemic, which may cause volatility in our pricing, order and revenue cycles and production costs. In addition, regulatory requirements like those proposed by the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA"), may increase on-going compliance costs.

Note 2. Investments in Affiliates

The aggregate amount of our investments in affiliates accounted for under the equity method was $ 18,322 and $ 19,887 at October 30, 2021 and May 1, 2021 , respectively. Our proportional share of the respective affiliates' earnings or losses is included in the "Other (expense) income, net" line item in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended October 30, 2021 , our share of the losses of our affiliates was $ 819 and $ 1,565 as compared to $ 616 and $ 1,145 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2020 . We purchased services for research and development activities from our equity method investments. The total of these related party transactions was $ 898 for the six months ended October 30, 2021, which is included in the "Product design and development" line item in our condensed consolidated statement of operations, and $ 584 of this remains unpaid and is included in the "Accounts payable " line item in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The total of these related party transactions was $ 560 for the six months ended October 31, 2020 . During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we loaned an investment in affiliate $ 5,000 , which is evidenced by a convertible note, which is included in the "Long-term receivables, less current maturities" line item in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

See "Note 5. Segment Reporting" for a disaggregation of revenue by geography.

Contract balances

Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and include unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are reclassified to accounts receivable when they are billed according to the contract terms. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to the customers in excess of revenue recognized to date.

The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and liabilities:

Contract liabilities - noncurrent

10,707 10,720 ( 13 ) ( 0.1 )%

The changes in our contract assets and contract liabilities from May 1, 2021 to October 30, 2021 were due to the timing of billing schedules and revenue recognition, which can vary significantly depending on the contractual payment terms and the construction and sports market seasonality. We had no impairments of contract assets for the six months ended October 30, 2021 .

For service-type warranty contracts, we allocate revenue to this performance obligation, recognize the revenue over time, and recognize costs as incurred. Earned and unearned revenues for these contracts are included in the "Contract assets" and "Contract liabilities" line items in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in unearned service-type warranty contracts, net were as follows:

As of October 30, 2021 and May 1, 2021 , our contracts in progress that were identified as loss contracts were immaterial. For these contracts, the provision for losses is included in the "Accrued expenses" line item in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the six months ended October 30, 2021 , we recognized revenue of $ 42,300 related to our contract liabilities as of May 1, 2021 .

Remaining performance obligations

As of October 30, 2021 , the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was $ 338,935 . We expect approximately $ 303,959 of our remaining performance obligations to be recognized over the next 12 months, with the remainder recognized thereafter. Remaining performance obligations related to product and service agreements at October 30, 2021 are $ 281,568 and $ 57,367 , respectively. Although remaining performance obligations reflect business that is considered to be legally binding, cancellations, deferrals or scope adjustments may occur. Any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations, and project deferrals are reflected or excluded in the remaining performance obligation balance, as appropriate.

We have numerous customers worldwide for sales of our products and services, and no customer accounted for 10 percent or more of net sales; therefore, we are not economically dependent on a limited number of customers for the sale of our products and services.

We have numerous raw material and component suppliers, and no supplier accounts for 10 percent or more of our cost of sales; however, we have a number of single-source suppliers that could limit our supply or cause delays in obtaining raw material and components needed in manufacturing.

We perform an analysis of goodwill on an annual basis, and it is tested for impairment more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. Our annual analysis is performed during our third quarter of each fiscal year based on the goodwill amount as of the first business day of our third fiscal quarter. We performed our annual impairment test on November 2, 2020 and concluded no goodwill impairment existed. We are currently in the process of completing our annual analysis as of the first business day of our third quarter of fiscal 2022, which began on October 31, 2021.

Note 7. Financing Agreements

As of October 30, 2021 , there were no advances under the loan portion of our line of credit, and the balance of letters of credit outstanding was approximately $ 8,255 . As of October 30, 2021 , $ 26,745 of the credit facility remains in place and available.

We are sometimes required to obtain bank guarantees or other financial instruments for display installations. If we are unable to meet the terms of the arrangement, our customer would draw on the banking arrangement, and the bank would subrogate its loss to Daktronics. As of October 30, 2021 , we had $ 715 of such instruments outstanding.

As of October 30, 2021 , we were in compliance with all applicable bank loan covenants.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation: We are a party to legal proceedings and claims which arise during the ordinary course of business. For unresolved legal proceedings or claims, we do not believe there is a reasonable probability that any material loss will be incurred. Accordingly, no material accrual or disclosure of a potential range of loss has been made related to these matters. We do not expect the ultimate liability of these unresolved legal proceedings or claims to have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity or capital resources.

Warranties: Changes in our warranty obligation for the six months ended October 30, 2021 consisted of the following:

$ 25,778

Performance guarantees: We have entered into standby letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds with financial institutions relating to the guarantee of our future performance on contracts, primarily construction-type contracts. As of October 30, 2021 , we had outstanding letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds in the amount of $ 8,255 , $ 715 and $ 52,219 , respectively. Performance guarantees are issued to certain customers to guarantee the operation and installation of the equipment and our ability to complete a contract. These performance guarantees have various terms but are generally one year. We enter into written agreements with our customers, and those agreements often contain indemnification provisions that require us to make the customer whole if certain acts or omissions by us cause the customer financial loss. We make efforts to negotiate reasonable caps and limitations on the recovery of such damages. As of October 30, 2021 , we were not aware of any indemnification claim from a customer.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods is calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate to “ordinary” income or loss for the reporting period, adjusted for discrete items. Due to various factors, including our estimate of annual income, our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation.

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended October 30, 2021 was 29.6 and 27.0 percent, respectively, as compared to an effective rate of 41.1 and 26.2 percent for the three and six months ended October 31, 2020 . The difference in tax rates is primarily driven by a decrease in estimated tax credits proportionate to an increase in estimated pre-tax earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

We operate both domestically and internationally and, as of October 30, 2021 , undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries were considered to be reinvested indefinitely. Additionally, as of October 30, 2021 , we had $ 682 of unrecognized tax benefits which would reduce our effective tax rate if recognized.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurement

The following table sets forth by Level within the fair value hierarchy our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at October 30, 2021 and May 1, 2021 according to the valuation techniques we used to determine their fair values.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This section entitled "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. The MD&A provides a narrative analysis explaining the reasons for material changes in the Company’s (i) financial condition during the period from the most recent fiscal year-end, May 1, 2021, to and including October 30, 2021 and (ii) results of operations during the current fiscal period(s) as compared to the corresponding period(s) of the preceding fiscal year.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the MD&A, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should,” "will," "continue" and similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any and all forecasts and projections in this document are “forward looking statements” and are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs. From time to time, we may also provide oral and written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, such as press releases, presentations to securities analysts or investors, or other communications by us. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report and in any public statements we make could be materially different from actual results. Accordingly, we wish to caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements.

We also wish to caution investors that other factors might in the future prove to be important in affecting our results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time; it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 1, 2021 (including the information presented therein under Risk Factors), as well other publicly available information.

OVERVIEW

We are engaged principally in the design, market, and manufacture of a wide range of integrated electronic display systems and related products which are sold in a variety of markets throughout the world and the rendering of related maintenance and professional services. We focus our sales and marketing efforts on markets, geographical regions and products. Our five business segments consist of four domestic business units and the International business unit. The four domestic business units consist of Commercial, Live Events, High School Park and Recreation, and Transportation, all of which include the geographic territories of the United States and Canada.

The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 1, 2021 and the consolidated financial statements, including the notes to consolidated financial statements included therein.

CORONAVIRUS ("COVID-19") PANDEMIC

The pandemic continues to evolve, as evidenced by the recent Omicron variant reports, impacting economic and business conditions. We continue to monitor guidance from international and domestic authorities regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and may take additional actions based on their requirements and recommendations. Since late fiscal 2021, our order and quoting activities have increased, creating a strong backlog and positive outlook; however, there is no assurance that this trend will continue in future quarters. Supply chain disruptions continue as a result of several factors including the pandemic, shipping container shortages, labor shortages, and the changes in global demand. Specifically, we are impacted by the global shortage of semiconductors and related electronic components, labor and other materials needed for production, and freight availability. We have experienced increased input costs including material, freight, and tariff costs and increased personal spend through the first half of the fiscal year. We expect continued disruptions in obtaining material, labor, and freight availability and an increase in inflation as the world economies react to and recover from the pandemic, which may cause volatility in our pricing, order and revenue cycles and production costs. In addition, regulatory requirements like those proposed by the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA"), may increase on-going compliance costs. Although we cannot predict the length or severity of these conditions, it is reasonably possible they will continue to have some impact on our operations throughout the remainder of fiscal 2022 and into fiscal 2023.

Refer to the COVID-19 related risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 1, 2020.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020

Product Order Backlog

Backlog represents the dollar value of orders for integrated electronic display systems and related products and services which are expected to be recognized in net sales in the future. Orders are contractually binding purchase commitments from customers. Orders are included in backlog when we are in receipt of an executed contract and any required deposits or security and have not yet been recognized into net sales. Certain orders for which we have received binding letters of intent or contracts will not be included in backlog until all required contractual documents and deposits are received. Orders and backlog are not measures defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and our methodology for determining orders and backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies in determining their orders and backlog amounts.

Order and backlog levels provide management and investors additional details surrounding the results of our business activities in the marketplace and highlights fluctuation caused by seasonality and our large project business. Management uses orders to evaluate market share and performance in the competitive environment. Management uses backlog information for capacity and resource planning. We believe order information is useful to investors because it provides an indication of our market share and provides of future revenues.

Our product order backlog as of October 30, 2021 was $282 million as compared to $201 million as of October 31, 2020 and $285 million at July 31, 2021, which was the end of our first quarter of fiscal 2022. We expect to fulfill the backlog as of October 30, 2021 within the next 24 months. The timing of backlog may be impacted by project delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain delays.

For the fiscal 2022 second quarter, net sales were $164.5 million, an increase of $37.1 million from the prior year's second quarter. The year-over-year growth was driven by increased orders. Material supply shortages are creating an increase in lead times and extending the timing of converting some orders to sales in the near-term.

Order volume increased in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, reflecting the continued recovery from the impact of the global pandemic among our customers, despite longer lead times. The Commercial business unit saw the largest increase in order bookings, while the order bookings in Live Events remained similar to those in the prior year second quarter. The High School Park and Recreation business unit performed well throughout the pandemic and continues to perform well driven by the adoption of video displays at the high school level. Transportation order levels increased as project planning and approval activities resumed for displays used in intelligent transportation systems and mass transit venues, while the International business unit saw a decrease in orders this quarter compared to the same quarter in 2021 fiscal year.

The decrease in gross profit percentage is largely related to increased input costs, including material, freight, tariffs, and outsourced installation costs. Gross profit was also impacted by sales mix differences between periods. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we had more large project sales which generally have lower gross profit because of the competitive nature of large projects. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we earned a higher rate of gross profit on our service agreements due to reduced stand ready services conducted during the quarter. This was due to lower on-site demand as events were not being held during the various pandemic shutdowns. Total warranty costs as a percent of sales for the three months ended October 30, 2021 compared to the same period one year ago increased to 1.4 percent from 0.6 percent .

Contribution margin is a non-GAAP measure and consists of gross profit less selling expenses. Selling expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs, travel and entertainment expenses, facility-related costs for sales and service offices, bad debt expenses, third-party commissions and expenditures for marketing efforts, including the costs of collateral materials, conventions and trade shows, product demonstrations, customer relationship management systems, and supplies.

Contribution margin was impacted by the previously discussed sales levels and impacts within gross profit.

Interest (expense) income, net: The change in interest income and expense, net for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the same period one year ago was primarily due to the reduction of interest expense, as we have no outstanding drawings on the line of credit this year as compared to $15.0 million last year and adjustments to long-term receivable interest.

Other (expense) income, net: The change in other income and expense, net for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same period one year ago was primarily due to losses recorded for equity method affiliates and foreign currency volatility.

Income Taxes

We have recorded an effective tax rate of 29.6 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to 41.1 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease in tax rate is primarily driven by a decrease in estimated tax credits proportionate to an increase in estimated pre-tax earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Sales and orders increased, as demand was up across most markets in the six months ended October 30, 2021 compared to the prior year six-month periods. Sales decreased for the Transportation business unit during the first six months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2021, but demand is strong as orders have increased by 45.8%. During the six months ended October 31, 2020, sales and orders in all business units were negatively impacted as a result of the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net sales during the six months ended October 30, 2021 increased by 14.1% overall due to the conversion to sales of the higher order volume during the first half of the year including several large multimillion-dollar orders ("large orders") in both Live Events and International. The timing of large orders conversions create volatility in comparisons between quarters. Material supply and labor shortages are creating an increase in lead times, extending the timing of converting some orders to sales in the near-term.

For orders, during the first six months ended October 30, 2021, economic recovery post-pandemic continued to improve, leading to increased orders year-over-year in all business units. The two segments that showed the largest order growth over last year are Commercial and High School Park and Recreation.

Interest (expense) income, net: The change in interest income and expense, net for the six months ended October 30, 2021 compared to the same period one year ago was primarily due to the reduction of interest expense, as we have no outstanding drawings on the line of credit this year as compared to $15.0 million last year.

Other (expense) income, net: The change in other income and expense, net for the six months ended October 30, 2021 as compared to the same period one year ago was primarily due to losses recorded for equity method affiliates and foreign currency volatility.

Income Taxes

We have recorded an effective tax rate of 27.0 percent for the six months ended October 30, 2021 as compared to 26.2 percent for the six months ended October 31, 2020. The difference in tax rates is primarily driven by a decrease in estimated tax credits proportionate to an increase in estimated pre-tax earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Cash decreased by $18.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022 primarily due to investing cash in affiliates and capital assets and due to the use of cash for increases in accounts receivable and inventory required to support the increased order volume. Cash increased by $33.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021 because of cash conservation measures during the pandemic, including: reductions in operating asset levels, decreases in capital expenditures, and suspension of our dividend and share repurchase program.

Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities: Net cash used in operating activities was $8.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $40.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. The $48.5 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of changes in net operating assets and liabilities.

The changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted of the following:

Purchases of property and equipment totaled $4.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022 compared to $5.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021. Purchases of and loans to affiliates accounted for by the equity investment method totaled $6.1 million in the first six months of fiscal 2022 as compared to $0.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 2021.

Net cash used in financing activities: Net cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million for the six months ended October 30, 2021 compared to $0.3 million in the same period one year ago due to principal payments on long-term obligations and tax payments related to issuances of restricted stock units ("RSUs").

Other Liquidity and Capital Resources Discussion: The timing and amounts of working capital changes, dividend payments, stock repurchases, and capital spending impact our liquidity.

Working capital was $125.2 million and $118.4 million at October 30, 2021 and May 1, 2021, respectively. The changes in working capital, particularly changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory, contract assets and liabilities, and the sports market and construction seasonality can have a significant impact on the amount of net cash provided by operating activities largely due to the timing of payments and receipts. On multimillion-dollar orders, the time between order acceptance and project completion may extend up to or exceed 12 months depending on the amount of custom work and a customer’s delivery needs. We often receive down payments or progress payments on these orders. We expect to use cash in operations as our business returns to pre-pandemic levels.

We had $8.9 million of retainage on long-term contracts included in receivables and contract assets as of October 30, 2021, which has an impact on our liquidity. We expect to collect these amounts within one year. We have historically financed our cash needs through a combination of cash flow from operations and borrowings under bank credit agreements.

The Board of Directors suspended dividends and share repurchases during fiscal 2020 as part of our cash conservations measures through the pandemic. The timing of the future reinstatement of dividends and share repurchases is at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Future dividends are also impacted by the limitations imposed in our credit facility, as further described in "Note 7. Financing Agreements" as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 1, 2021.

We are sometimes required to obtain bank guarantees or other financial instruments for display installations and utilize a global bank to provide such instruments. If we are unable to complete the installation work, our customer would draw on the banking arrangement, and the bank would subrogate its loss to Daktronics' restricted cash accounts. As of October 30, 2021, we had $0.7 million of such instruments outstanding.

We are sometimes required to obtain performance bonds for display installations, and we have a bonding line available through a surety company for an aggregate of $150.0 million in bonded work outstanding. If we were unable to complete the installation work, and our customer would call upon the bond for payment, the surety company would subrogate its loss to Daktronics. As of October 30, 2021, we had $52.2 million of bonded work outstanding against this line.

Our business growth and profitability improvement strategies depend on investments in capital expenditures and strategic investments. We are projecting total capital expenditures to be a pproximately $25 million for fiscal 2022. Projected capital expenditures include manufacturing equipment for new or enhanced product production, expanded capacity, investments in quality and reliability equipment, and continued information infrastructure investments. 2022. We also evaluate and may invest in new technologies or acquire companies aligned with our business strategy.

We believe the audiovisual industry fundamentals will drive long-term growth for our business; however, for the near-term outlook, we expect our customers may continue to have disruptions and may continue to reduce or increase their spend on audiovisual systems and related services as they work through the economic and business implications of COVID-19 and related supply chain challenges. Although it is difficult to estimate the longevity and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic impact to the economy and to our financial position, operating results, and cash flows, we believe our working capital available from all sources will be adequate to meet the cash requirements of our operations and strategies in the foreseeable future. If the pandemic impact or long-term growth extends beyond current expectations, or if we make significant strategic investments, we may need to utilize and possibly increase our credit facilities or seek other means of financing.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 1, 2021.
