Expansion Optimists
The 80,000 bookings for Tesseract indicate strong market demand, justifying the expansion.
Expansion Skeptics
High bookings may not translate to actual sales, making the expansion a risk.
Global Expansion
Expansion Optimists
Expanding production supports global ambitions and diversifies market risk.
