Where is the 30B from?

"Not quitting" is not plan. Where will the cash influx come from to either grow your footprint by adding sales (outside/inside) and/or acquisition. The last thing a public company can do when your stock is not just flat but down is to spend money. Going from 500M to 3B is 600% growth which is ludicrous without significant, radical change.

What's the advantage of chasing revenue growth in lieu of margins? To me that seems like it would only increase overhead, further eroding margins or resulting in price increases. Price increases would only further erode revenue. Kind of a catch-22. Not being facetious, just trying to understand why the revenue is so critical to Avigilon from a financial/business perspective. Is it pure market share?
