First tranche delivered, larger tranches en route: the same engine that just produced has visibly more already scheduled
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 ONE identifiable engine of new business for which BOTH (1) a first tranche has actually landed in the just-reported period (Q2 2017), and (2) larger tranches are already in motion behind it, with the remainder larger than what has been recognized so far, and management treats delivering the remainder as a matter of execution/timing rather than winning new demand. We need to find a specific engine. Let's scan the transcript for candidates. - Microwave backhaul RF transceiver: "we commence production shipments of our technology 28-nanometer CMOS Microwave backhaul RF transceiver solution, addressing 5 Gigahertz to 45 Gigahertz frequencies. This is resulting in significantly expand engineering engagements with several Tier 1 customers not only in backhaul but also in the broader 5G wireless infrastructure markets." That is a first tranche (production shipments started). But is there a larger tranche already in motion? The transcript says "resulting in significantly expand engineering engagements" - that's not committed volumes, it's engagements. Not clear. - Millimeter wave backhaul modem: "We also commenced volume production shipments of our 20 twenty gigabit per second millimeter Wave backhaul modem solutions to a Tier 1 Chinese OEM." That's a first tranche. But is there a larger tranche? Not mentioned. - MOCA 2.5 and G.hn: "we have greatly expanded our wireline connectivity presence, having commenced shipments of our technology leading multi-gigabit MOCA 2.5 and near gigabit Wave-2 G.hn solutions." That's a first tranche. But larger tranches? Not specified. - Exar power management into Intel Purley: "we're at the early stages of new platform growth drivers in the form of force-touch solution to the smartphones and power modules into Tier 1 Intel Purley base servers." That's early stages, not a landed tranche. - Force-touch: "we're particularly excited by the meaningful growth opportunity represented by the early ramp of our innovative fostered solutions in smart phones." Early ramp, but is there a larger tranche? Not specified. - G.hn last mile access: "we not only saw the initial ramp of G.Now solutions into a major Asian telco operator, but also have strong and growing international telco and operator engagements in this business.
