Repeat customers are now the ones asking for more capacity: management describes buyers it has already served pressing f
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2017 call → NOThe question asks whether management describes a situation where proven, repeat counterparties are asking for more than the company can currently supply, and the company is enlarging itself in response. Looking at the transcript, I need to find evidence of: 1. Existing customers/partners asking for more based on prior experience 2. The ask exceeding current supply capability 3. The company building/enlarging to meet this demand Scanning the transcript, I see discussion of: - Europe wholesale order book up 3% for fall/winter - Store openings in Europe (45 stores), Asia (65 stores) - New flagship store in Moscow - Expansion plans But the key question is whether existing, proven counterparties are asking for MORE than the company can currently supply. The transcript discusses growth plans, store openings, and order books, but I don't see a clear statement that existing customers/partners are requesting volumes that exceed the company's current capacity to supply. The order book being up 3% suggests existing wholesale partners are ordering more, but there's no indication this exceeds what the company can supply. The store openings are planned expansions, not responses to demand exceeding supply. The transcript discusses challenges in the U.S., transition periods, and various headwinds. There's no clear articulation of the specific phenomenon described in the question - proven buyers asking for more than the company can currently deliver, with the company building to catch up. The answer is NO.

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.
