Demand pull is outrunning the plan for one still-small offering, and the company is visibly re-pointing itself at it
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2016 call → NO我们根据要求分析。需要找到管理层的描述:一个可识别的产品/服务,客户响应超过准备,公司正在增加投入。从转录中看,有提到“whole-grain funnel cake product has been well received in schools and contributed significantly to our sales growth in this quarter.” 以及“Funnel Cakes up an amazing 58%.” 还有“We have a major chain that is going to be rolling out funnel cake, different size, but we can do different sizes. This major chain we’ll be running out, we’ll be rolling out funnel cake and we can be the beneficiary of that six months from now.” 但这是未来计划,不是当前。另外“OREO churros”有增长,但未提及超出准备。还有“Pillsbury”新产品,但未提及需求超过准备。管理层提到“we’ve a backlog of products that we’re making for them out of one of our handheld plants, its going to last in the early spring.” 这可能是手持产品,但未明确说需求超过准备。整体看,没有明确说某个小产品需求超过公司准备且公司正在增加投入。因此答案应为NO。
