First tranche delivered, larger tranches en route: the same engine that just produced has visibly more already scheduled
The model's full reasoning — Q3 2017 call → NOWe need answer YES/NO based on transcript. Need identify engine with first tranche landed and larger tranches in motion. Let's parse. Management highlights: SBA lending strategy. "This quarter we producer and sold over $4 million with loan sales gains over 200,000. As a result of our third quarter production, we’re on track to deliver over $1.2 million in loan sale gains for the year, representing total SBA production of over $17 million." That is SBA engine. First tranche? Q3 production $4 million sold. Larger tranches? "on track to deliver over $1.2 million in loan sale gains for the year, representing total SBA production of over $17 million." But that's annual total, not necessarily larger than Q3? Q3 $4.1 million, year-to-date? Actually "SBA loan volume for the quarter robust at $4.1 million." "we’re on track to deliver over $1.2 million in loan sale gains for the year, representing total SBA production of over $17 million." That implies full year $17 million, Q3 $4.1 million, so Q1+Q2 ~? $17 - $4.1 = $12.9 million, so Q3 is smaller share. But is continuation "already in motion"? It's "on track" for year, but that's expected, not committed? Also they mention expanding BDO presence, "In the fourth quarter, we intend to have additional expertise..." That's future. The SBA production is ongoing, but is there a specific engine with first tranche landed and larger tranches already secured? The transcript says "we’re on track to deliver over $1.2 million in loan sale gains for the year" - that's a projection, not committed. Also "Our success in this arena adds strength..." Not clear. Another engine: Findlay office. "our newest office in Findlay, Ohio continues to make significant contributions... Through this quarter, loan balances have expanded to over $37 million with prospects of continued growth, through pipeline of over $15 million." First tranche landed: $37 million loans. Larger tranches? Pipeline $15 million, but pipeline is not committed, and "prospects" not secured. Also "plans to solidify presence" future. So no. Columbus expansion: "loan balances expanded to over $177 million. This reason is just now $2 million short of becoming our largest region... recently purchased and remodeled a new loan production office... intend to launch..." First tranche landed? $177 million loans. Larger tranches? Not concrete, just "intend" and "capture potential".
