Management is buying the same thing twice: proven demand from one place is being replicated into identified new places r
The model's full reasoning — Q4 2016 call → NOWe need answer YES or NO based on transcript. Need identify if management describes currently in middle of copying a part of business already working into additional places with demand already visible. Let's parse. Transcript: Nathan mentions service business continues to grow as concentrate on national multi-location users like retailers and mobile phone service provider. This business line creates growing base of recurring revenue. Later in Q&A: "we’re way more rewarded on the service side... Our world’s sort of growing -- internally we’re growing our service shop business imitating the success that we’ve had in Miami, in Omaha, in [indiscernible] with sort of two to three person service shop one doing the technical work, one doing the sales doing all these administration out of headquarters and Minneapolis. We expect to open a service shop in the next month in South Dakota and then one more towards the second half of the year in the Tampa, Florida area. And those add incremental profitable growth for us, since it’s all service related." This seems exactly: proven instances in Miami, Omaha, etc. (service shops) working. Copies being stood up now: opening service shop in next month in South Dakota, and one more in Tampa later. Demand already identified? He says "imitating the success" and "add incremental profitable growth" but does he point to demand already visible at destination? He mentions service business growing with national multi-location users like retailers and mobile phone service provider. The new shops are aimed at service related demand. But does he convey demand already identified at destination? He says "We expect to open a service shop in the next month in South Dakota and then one more towards the second half of the year in the Tampa, Florida area." He doesn't explicitly say there are customers waiting or committed. But context: service business growing, national multi-location users. However question requires demand already identified at destination. Management says "imitating the success" and "add incremental profitable growth" but not specifically that demand is already visible. Need assess. Also need "large relative to company" and reported results reflect mostly original instance. He says "those add incremental profitable growth" but not large relative. The service shops are small (two to three person).
