Repeat customers are now the ones asking for more capacity: management describes buyers it has already served pressing f
The model's full reasoning — Q4 2016 call → NOWe need to answer YES or NO based on the transcript. The question asks: does management describe that buyers who have already bought from the company and seen the result are now asking for more than the company can currently supply, and is management working to enlarge the company in response? We need to find evidence in the transcript. The transcript is about General Mills' earnings call. They discuss various businesses, but the key is whether there is a situation where existing customers (or counterparties) are demanding more than the company can supply, and the company is expanding capacity. Scanning the transcript: They talk about growth in various segments, but I don't see any explicit mention of existing customers asking for more than the company can supply. They discuss cost savings, margin expansion, portfolio segmentation, etc. There is no mention of capacity constraints or backlogs. They talk about launching new products, but not about demand exceeding supply. They mention "growth businesses" and "foundation businesses" but not about being unable to meet demand. The question is very specific: "buyers who have already bought from the company and seen the result are now asking for more than the company can currently supply." This is a classic "demand exceeds supply" scenario. The transcript does not contain such a description. Management does not mention any capacity constraints or that they are working to enlarge capacity to meet existing customer demand. They talk about cost savings and margin expansion, but not about being unable to supply. Thus, the answer is NO. I'll answer NO.
