Repeat customers are now the ones asking for more capacity: management describes buyers it has already served pressing f
The model's full reasoning — Q3 2021 call → NOWe need to answer YES or NO based on the transcript. The question asks: Does management describe that buyers who have already bought from the company and seen the result are now asking for more than the company can currently supply them? That is, counterparties the company has already served are requesting volumes, scope, locations, or timelines that exceed what the company can presently produce, deliver, staff, or serve, and management is working to enlarge the company in response. We need to find evidence in the transcript. The transcript is about Akebia's Q3 2021 earnings call. The main product is vadadustat, not yet approved. They talk about launch preparation. They also have Auryxia, a commercial product. The question is about existing buyers asking for more than supply. Let's scan the transcript. John Butler: "We have a tremendous opportunity to bring a potential first-in-class product to market... An approval has the potential to be a pivotal catalyst... We are excited about the momentum we have gained as we prepare for launch." That's about future approval. They talk about market opportunity: "There are approximately 560,000 dialysis patients... approximately 90% are being treated with ESAs... Our Phase 3 data demonstrated... We feel very confident that these data support an approval for this patient population." That's about data. They talk about launch preparation: "Our team has also made significant progress preparing for successful launch, including our medical teams’ efforts to educate physicians, payers and dialysis organizations... We are excited about vadadustat's potential to be the first-in-class HIF-PHIs in the US. This is a much larger market opportunity than we anticipated just a few months ago." That's about market opportunity, not existing buyers. They mention Japan: "The product was launched by our partner MTPC just over a year ago in Japan. We are encouraged that the HIF-PHI share of the anemia market continues to grow in Japan, along with VASFSEO market share. And that more physicians in Japan have stated an intention to prescribe HIF-PHIs over erythropoiesis-stimulating agents or ESAs." That's about Japan market share, not about existing buyers asking for more than supply.

Existing customers who previously bought fixed-tilt racking (proven repeat counterparties) have switched to the new 1P TerraTrak tracker technology, creating rapid uptake that exceeds current supply capability.
