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 — Q1 2016 call → NOWe need to answer YES or NO based on the transcript. The question asks 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 has only begun to flow into reported results because most of the reported numbers still reflect older terms. We need to look for management's own words conveying both halves. The transcript discusses various programs, cost reductions, cumulative catch-ups, etc. There is no explicit discussion about new contracts, renewals, or deals being signed at better terms. The company talks about cost reductions, productivity improvements, and forward loss reversals, but not about new business terms improving. The B-21 win is mentioned, but it's a new program, not necessarily about better terms on existing business. The A350 and 787 are discussed in terms of cost improvements and progress, but not about new contracts with better pricing. The company's guidance is maintained, and they talk about cost initiatives. There is no mention of new orders or contracts with better economics. The question specifically asks about "economic terms of the company's newest business" such as prices, rates, fees, spreads, contract sizes, durations, or profitability. The transcript does not contain such statements. Management does not say that new business is being written at better terms than recent past. They talk about cost reductions and productivity, but that's not about pricing terms. They also mention cumulative catch-up adjustments, which are about recognizing prior cost improvements, not new business terms. So the answer is NO. Thus, the answer is 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.
