\"MARA<\/p>\n

Bitcoin miner MARA posted its highest quarterly Bitcoin production in over a year, but was overshadowed by a 28% decline in the average price of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin miner MARA swung to a net loss of $611.3 million from a year-earlier profit in the second quarter of 2026, driven primarily by a change in the value of its Bitcoin holdings, despite reporting its highest quarterly Bitcoin production in more than a year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The net loss, equivalent to $1.60 per diluted share, is down compared to a net income of $808.2 million, or $1.84 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025, according<\/span><\/a> to the company\u2019s 10-Q SEC filing. MARA mined 2,422 Bitcoin in the quarter, 3% more than the prior year period, but higher production was more than offset by a 28% decline in the average Bitcoin price.\u00a0<\/p>\n
