Running hot in customers' hands: existing deployments are being used harder than they were sized for
The model's full reasoning — Q4 2023 call → NOWe need to determine if management describes that the company's product/service/capacity/offering is being used more intensively by existing customers than originally planned, with observable current usage behavior. The transcript mentions: "we were expecting a new configuration weapon site order in late December, which would significantly increase our demand for the year. And if received, we would need to take actions within the quarter to prepare the plant for such an increase in demand." That's about a new order, not existing customers using more. Also "we do anticipate additional follow-on orders for both of these products and other products as well in 2024." That's future. "Based just on this current demand, Kopin will potentially ship triple the volume of weapon sites within the calendar year of 2024." That's about volume increase due to new orders, not necessarily existing customers using more. The transcript does not describe existing customers consuming more per account. It's about new orders and backlog. No mention of usage intensity climbing. So answer NO.
