Insiders still discovering the upside: management reports the opportunity keeps revealing itself bigger in live operatio
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2023 call → NOWe need to determine if management conveys discovering new upside from live operations and responding with resources. The transcript shows strong results, but does it show fresh discoveries? Management mentions growth, but no specific surprise about opportunity scope. They discuss fundraising, but no "we found more than expected" language. They mention CAIS investment as strategic, but not a discovery from operations. They note softness in retail, not upside. No explicit "we discovered" statements. So answer NO.
