Scarcity premium: the thing the company sells is becoming harder to get, and management is letting the shortage do the s
The model's full reasoning — Q3 2022 call → NO我们根据提供的财报电话会议记录来判断。管理层是否传达出公司自身产品/服务/产能/专业知识变得难以获得,并且管理层利用这种稀缺性来改善自身条件(如定价、选择性等)。 在记录中,管理层提到: - 需求强劲,订单积压,但主要是关于客户供应链问题。 - 关于产能利用率:平均每天2班,每周4天,有些周末工作,但提到“MEC capacity utilization can be improved”,暗示还有提升空间。 - 关于定价:提到“commercial pricing increases”和“value pricing”,但这是公司主动提价,并非因为稀缺。 - 关于新业务:提到许多新项目,但未说产能紧张。 - 关于供应链:提到“customer supply chain issues”影响自身出货,但这是客户的问题,不是公司自身产品稀缺。 - 没有提到公司自身产品/服务难以获得,或客户需要等待,或公司选择性接单。 因此,管理层没有传达出公司自身产品变得难以获得,也没有利用稀缺性来改善条件。相反,他们提到产能利用率可以改善,暗示还有余力。 所以答案应为NO。

LEGH · Q4 2023 → YESThe question is: Does management convey that WHAT THE COMPANY SELLS IS BECOMING HARDER FOR BUYERS TO OBTAIN — availability tightening — AND that management is allowing that tightening to work in the c...YES The transcript shows management explicitly holding production levels steady to build backlog rather than ramping output, while continuing to hold pricing levels. Duncan Bates states: “We have held pricing levels and held production levels as we continue to build a backlog across the manufacturing plants” and later “we decided, hey, let's keep production where it is and keep building the backlog.

They explicitly note pricing upside from the fractured supply situation in Power and treat the tightness as a positive dynamic rather than an urgent problem to fix.
