MARA Holdings posts Q2 revenue beat with 64% year-on-year jump

Bitcoin miner MARA Holdings beat analyst expectations in its second-quarter earnings, which saw its share price slightly gain after-hours.

MARA Holdings’ revenues increased 64% year-on-year to $238 million, up from $145 million in Q2 2024 and also gaining from its $214 million revenues in the first quarter of 2025, the company said on Tuesday

The firm’s revenue beat analyst expectations of $223.7 million while its net income surged 505% compared to a year ago to $808 million, up from a loss of just under $200 million in Q2 2024.

The income gain was largely driven by a $1.2 billion unrealized gain from Bitcoin (BTC) appreciation over the period. The asset gained 31% over the three-month period ending June 30
