The bottleneck is inside and being paid away: internal limits on serving live demand, with removal already funded
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2022 call → NOWe need answer YES/NO. Need evaluate criteria. Transcript: management conveys loan growth strong, April $45M growth, originations. Demand? They see pipelines, activity. But is main thing standing between company and meaningfully more business company's own capability? They mention supply chain, labor delays on equipment finance transactions, but not company capacity. They are adding hires maybe, marketing. But no explicit capacity constraint with unserved customers. They say they have good pipelines, but they can serve? They grew $45M in April. No indication demand exceeds capacity. Limit is not own capability; rather timing delays due to supply chain/labor. They plan to strengthen departments, but not that ability to deliver is binding. So NO.
