New business is being written on visibly better terms than the company's own recent norm, and the mix shift has just beg
The model's full reasoning — Q2 2022 call → NOWe need answer only YES or NO. Need evaluate based on transcript. Question asks: does management indicate that economic terms of newest business have stepped up meaningfully above company's own recent norm, and improvement only begun to flow into reported results because most business still written at older less favorable terms? We need parse transcript. Company is SelectQuote, Medicare Advantage distribution, SelectRx pharmacy. They had disappointing quarter, negative EBITDA, cohort tail adjustment, lower LTV, close rates down. They discuss resetting growth, pulling back. No indication of improved terms on new business. Actually they discuss lower LTVs, lower persistency, increased constraints, lower close rates. SelectRx progress: 40k enrollments, 10k active members, growing. But no mention of better economics/terms vs recent norm. They talk about population health initiatives as future, but not that new business terms improved and results still reflect old. So answer NO.

CRL · Q2 2022 → YESThe question is about whether management indicates that the economic terms of the company's newest business have stepped up meaningfully above the company's own recent norm, and that this improvement ...YES Management's comments on Safety Assessment pricing and backlog directly address both required elements: they describe current bookings and backlog at "escalating prices" and "meaningful price increases" that are already achieved on real transactions (not targets or future expectations), while noting that the reported Q2 results are still dominated by older 2022 terms and that the stronger pricing is accelerating into H2 and 2023 bookings.
