Mid-period crossings: the quarter's story is things that started during it and are still completing
The model's full reasoning — Q2 2016 call → NO我们根据要求分析。管理层是否描述了在报告期内或附近开始的实际业务活动,并明确表示爬坡未完成,报告数字低于当前运行水平。关键点:多种项目激活,如大平原、北湖、Adelanto扩建等,但这些是去年发生的。本季度新激活?Kingman监狱在去年12月接管,本季度完成激活和爬坡。Ravenhall仍在建设中,预计2017年第四季度。没有明确叙述本季度内新开始的活动。因此答案应为NO。

They describe the activity as real and transacting, with Dan Amos noting the significant contribution from the new product. Yoshizumi confirms gradual increase going forward, and Fred highlights runway for more agents and sales calming down after initial jump, indicating the Q2 numbers reflect partial ramp-up rather than full run-rate.

It also explicitly addresses the incomplete climb, noting that the reported Q 2 numbers lag due to partial contribution and that Q3/Q4 will see fuller periods plus seasonality, with the business already running at a higher level as the ramp continues.
