(fwiw I found out by way of John Gruber: https://daringfireball.net/linked/2020/08/11/mozilla-layoffs)

That doesn’t say it won’t be renewed, just that it’s currently not renewed.

Doesn’t it seem a little late for them to be renewing a deal worth hundreds of millions of dollars?

At minimum, I think it spells trouble. Would love to be wrong.

Edit: Since anything can happen, I personally wouldn’t have written the sentence with as much certainty as the GP, but I don’t think they were far off.

Funny thing ;)
