Already inside the gate: the company is specified into someone else's next wave, and the wave has not yet shipped
The model's full reasoning — Q3 2016 call → NOWe need to determine if the transcript describes a situation where the company is already chosen/designed into another organization's future product/program, the wave hasn't arrived yet, and the position is large relative to the company. Let's analyze. The transcript discusses several programs. Key points: - Margetuximab: Phase 3 SOPHIA trial, enrolling patients. This is their own drug, not inside another's product. - Enoblituzumab: their own trials. - MGD009, MGD006, MGD007: their own DART molecules. - MGD011 (duvortuxizumab) with Janssen: Janssen is developing it. But is it already chosen? Yes, it's a collaboration. But is the wave not yet arrived? It's in Phase 1. The company is not necessarily "inside" Janssen's next thing in the sense of being a supplier. It's a co-development. The transcript says "MGD011, also known as JNJ-64052781 or duvortuxizumab, a CD19 x CD3 DART molecule which is being developed by our collaboration partner Janssen." That's a partnership, not a supplier relationship. The company is not a component supplier. It's a biotech licensing its molecule. The question is about being "chosen, specified, qualified, designed in" as a component or part of another's product. Here, MacroGenics is the originator, not a supplier. The relationship is a collaboration where Janssen develops it. But the company is not "inside" Janssen's next product in the sense of being a supplier. It's more like a licensing deal. The question asks about "position inside another organization's future product, program, platform, build-out, or standard operating plan." A collaboration where the company's drug is being developed by a partner could be considered that. But the key is whether the wave has not yet arrived and the position is large relative to the company. However, the transcript does not emphasize that this is a secured position with future volume. It's just a collaboration. - MGD010 with Takeda: Takeda concluded the agreement, so MacroGenics regained rights. That's not a secured position. - MGD014: funded by NIAID, but that's a contract, not a future product. - MGA012: IND cleared, their own. - MGD013: IND to be submitted.

CUBI · Q3 2018 → YESThe question is about whether management describes that the company has already been chosen or locked into another organization's future product/program, such that volume will come automatically when ...NO The transcript describes a white-label partnership with T-Mobile where BankMobile provides services under T-Mobile's brand, with deposits expected to start in the next year after the launch. However, this does not meet the criteria for a secured position inside T-Mobile's next product or program. The language focuses on a partnership relationship that is still being launched, rather than a design win or qualification already embedded in T-Mobile's future offering. Management refers to it as an "expected white label partnership" and "working on" the launch, indicating it is not yet locked in as part of T-Mobile's committed plan.

However, this is framed as an announcement of a new agreement rather than a secured, locked-in position already designed 100% into the platform with volume guaranteed.
