Daktronics Inc. (DAKT) experienced a pre-market plunge of 5.55% on Wednesday following the release of its fiscal third-quarter earnings results.
The stock's decline comes after the company reported earnings that fell short of analyst expectations. Daktronics posted fiscal Q3 earnings per share of $0.06, significantly below the FactSet consensus estimate of $0.13. The company also reported adjusted EPS of $0.09, which also missed the $0.13 estimate.
While Daktronics reported Q3 revenue of $181.871 million, net income of $3.01 million, and operating income of $1.922 million, the earnings miss appears to be the primary driver behind the pre-market selloff as investors react to the disappointing bottom-line performance relative to expectations.
