AMODAMODWMNTN
  • Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMOD) received a ruling from the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas denying MNTN, Inc.'s motion to dismiss its patent infringement lawsuit.
  • The court rejected MNTN's argument that Alpha Modus's patents were directed to patent-ineligible subject matter under 35 U.S.C. § 101, determining that resolving eligibility at this stage would be premature.
  • The litigation involves U.S. Patent Nos. 10,360,571, 11,042,890, and 12,026,731, which cover real-time consumer data analysis for Connected TV technologies including MNTN Matched™, Verified Visits™, Next Gen TV, and Performance TV.
  • The court concluded that claim construction and factual discovery are necessary to properly analyze the patent eligibility disputes before dismissing the case.
  • MNTN, a publicly traded company on the NYSE (ticker: MNTN), reported $82.5 million in revenue for the second quarter of 2026, with $21.5 million in adjusted EBITDA, $6.7 million in net income, and $237.3 million in cash.
  • MNTN's board recently authorized a $100 million stock repurchase program, and the company completed its IPO in May 2025 at $16.00 per share, raising approximately $114.8 million.
  • Ryan Reynolds serves as MNTN's Chief Creative Officer, and the company focuses on measurable, performance-driven advertising for Connected TV.
  • Alpha Modus CEO William Alessi stated the ruling reinforces the company's resolve to enforce its intellectual property portfolio regardless of the defendant's size or resources.
  • This decision represents a significant milestone in Alpha Modus's broader enforcement campaign, which includes over 20 infringement actions across retail technology, digital advertising, and AI-enabled customer engagement.
  • Alpha Modus asserts that the patents cover specific technological improvements in delivering personalized marketing, rather than the abstract concept of data collection that MNTN claimed.
