Repeat customers are now the ones asking for more capacity: management describes buyers it has already served pressing f
The model's full reasoning — Q2 2017 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, and is management working to enlarge the company in response? We need to find evidence in the transcript of: (1) proven, repeat counterparties asking for more; (2) the ask exceeds current supply; (3) company is enlarging itself now. Scan the transcript for relevant statements. Management discusses various products and markets. They mention strong demand, ramps, design wins, etc. But we need specifically that existing customers are asking for more than the company can supply, and the company is expanding capacity. Look for phrases like "demand exceeds supply", "we can't meet demand", "we are increasing capacity", "customers are asking for more than we can provide", etc. In the transcript, there is no explicit statement that existing customers are asking for more than the company can supply. They talk about growth, ramps, but not about a supply constraint. They mention "we have begun deleveraging" and "we are excited" but nothing about capacity constraints. They mention "we have commenced shipments" and "we are sampling" but not that they are turning away orders. There is a mention of "we are uniquely positioned" and "we are excited" but no mention of inability to meet demand. The question is very specific. The transcript does not contain such a description. Management talks about growth, but not about being unable to supply. They talk about "strong growth" and "design wins" but not about existing customers asking for more than they can supply. Thus, the answer is NO. We must answer only YES or NO.
