- The figures reflected in the above charts were compiled from unaudited information reported to 101 Mobility, and/or input into 101 Mobility’s proprietary MOBILINK software, by 101 Mobility franchisees. 101 Mobility has not independently verified any of the sales or cost information on which this financial performance representation is based.
