So that is 3 lenses and a new dslr. The GRiii is coming next year. Probably also a new Theta. So 6 new items in 2019.
That is very optimistic to say at the least.

A good interview is not easy. The people on the other side of the tablet ofcourse also have to be willingly to give a good and smooth story and must be allowed to talk about things. This wasn't that kind of interview.
I did one almost 5 years ago and one of the people on the tablet was there also.

Theta is now a consumer gadget product. So there is money in 360, but in mostly other sectors then the consumer site. Money to make, but then they also have to address those market segments.
Not sure if those numbers are correct, but hey maybe. So 473,6 million USD sales in 2018. Great. And Theta is market leader, also great. Yet Ricoh-Imaging sales where only 40 million USD last quarter (that is for Theta, k-mount camera and lenses, 645 and action camera's ). So how big of the market do they really have?

Three new lenses next year......that will be hard working.
No support for pixelshift from anywhere. So that is a dead end.
Theta is #1 in 360. But 360 is a declining market at the consumer end.
No idea about marketing. No idea about ambassadors. No idea about market contraction over the coming years.
In 4 weeks we will see a new financial report from Ricoh.

Any plans on expanding the GR line? I would love to buy a GR with 40mm/f2.8 (pancake style) (60mm equivalent to fullframe) on it!
