New business is being written on visibly better terms than the company's own recent norm, and the mix shift has just beg
The model's full reasoning — Q4 2022 call → NOWe need answer YES/NO based on transcript. Need determine if management indicates economic terms of newest business have stepped up meaningfully above company's own recent norm, and improvement only begun to flow into reported results because most business still older terms. We need parse transcript. This is utility company. "newest business" could be rate cases, riders, customer growth, renewable projects, RNG, datacenters/blockchain. Need see if management says new contracts/deals at better terms than recent norm, and results still old terms. Transcript: They discuss 2022 results, 2023 guidance lowered due to headwinds. No indication of improved pricing/terms on new business. They mention rate reviews, settlements, riders. But not that new rates are meaningfully above recent norm. They mention customer growth, but not terms. They mention renewable generation opportunities, but not signed contracts. They mention blockchain customer going into service shortly, but no terms. They mention regulatory cadence may increase. No mention of step-up in economics of new business vs own recent past. Also they discuss cost recovery of deferred gas costs, but that's pass-through. They discuss interest expense, inflation. No. Thus answer NO.

CRL · Q2 2022 → YESThe question is about whether management indicates that the economic terms of the company's newest business have stepped up meaningfully above the company's own recent norm, and that this improvement ...YES Management's comments on Safety Assessment pricing and backlog directly address both required elements: they describe current bookings and backlog at "escalating prices" and "meaningful price increases" that are already achieved on real transactions (not targets or future expectations), while noting that the reported Q2 results are still dominated by older 2022 terms and that the stronger pricing is accelerating into H2 and 2023 bookings.
