What management said
So we certainly are working on larger sized ones. I'd say the majority of the larger sized ones are more on the BLE side. And some of the ones on the BLE side also do need us to get to the commercialization of the ID Blue, which is the portfolio of BLE smart labels that we're working on that we'll be commercializing on later this year. So we definitely are working them. We're in conversation. We're in sampling mode....
We're not seeing cancellations. I'd say what we're seeing is, as you just mentioned, softening forecasts or interest in perhaps pushing some volume -- some orders out. So that's more what we are seeing as opposed to just outright cancellations.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts expressed concerns about the softening demand in consumer-facing applications, particularly in higher-end products, which could impact future revenue. There were also questions regarding the company's ability to manage operational resources while ramping up production for the IFCO program.
