• Oct 2026, buyer program

  $5 Billion

  The $5 billion appears only in the headline of a paid Business Wire release. The body does not say what it counts, who funds it, or whether it is a purchase budget. Terms in the release: 14-day non-binding letter of intent, collection and de-identification over 15 to 30 days, payment expected within about 60 days; eligible organisations have 20 or more full-time US office employees (10 for accounting firms, 6 for law firms). Neither the release nor Mode's half-year filing explains the figure: the filing shows $15.5 million of cash at 30 Jun 2026, a going-concern doubt that management says is alleviated, and no mention of data licensing.
