Marti Technologies On Track to Exceed 2025 Guidance, Introduces 2026 Outlook with More than Double Revenue Growth and Positive EBITDA

Key Terms

adjusted EBITDA financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

non-GAAP financial measures financial

Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.

GAAP financial

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

ISTANBUL--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Marti Technologies, Inc. (“Marti” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: MRT), Türkiye’s leading mobility super app, today announced that it expects to exceed guidance for 2025. In addition, the Company has initiated strong guidance for 2026. For 2026, Marti expects $70 million of revenue, representing over 2x year-over-year revenue growth, and to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA.

The anticipated revenue growth and positive adjusted EBITDA are expected to be driven by several key factors, including the:

1) continued rapid growth in the number of ride-hailing trips,
2) increasing take rates in monetized cities,
3) introduction of monetization in new cities first launched in 2025, and
4) growing volume and revenue contribution from Marti’s delivery services.

The Company expects that operating leverage from higher ride-hailing trip volumes, improved unit economics in monetized markets, and the scaling of deliveries will support profitability while continuing to invest in growth.

“Our performance in 2025 reflects the strength of our execution and the significant opportunity ahead for Marti,” said Oğuz Alper Öktem, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Marti, “We are on track to exceed our 2025 guidance, driven by continued momentum in ride-hailing as we expand across the country and serve a large, under-developed transportation and last-mile market in Türkiye. Looking ahead to 2026, we see a clear path to more than doubling revenue and achieving positive EBITDA as we scale monetization and introduce new services, including deliveries, that further leverage our platform.”

Outlook for 2026

The Company provides its full year 2026 outlook as follows:

	2025 Guidance	2026 Guidance	Change
Revenue	$34.0 million	$70.0 million	+ $36.0 million
