Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Marti Technologies reported strong growth for the first quarter of 2026 while still operating at a loss. Revenue rose to $15.4 million, up 156.1% from the prior-year period, as trips nearly doubled and its multi-service mobility platform scaled.

Gross profit increased to $11.1 million with a 72% gross margin, and net loss narrowed to $7.4 million from $10.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA improved sharply to a loss of $0.5 million, an Adjusted EBITDA margin of -3%, helped by operating leverage and subscription packages.

However, Marti continues to carry substantial long-term financial liabilities of $85.9 million, negative stockholders’ equity of $(72.3) million, and cash of $4.8 million as of March 31, 2026.

Insights

Marti shows rapid growth and margin improvement, but balance sheet risk remains high.

Marti Technologies delivered very strong Q1 2026 operating performance. Revenue grew 156.1% year-over-year to $15.4 million, trips rose to 16.22 million, and gross profit reached $11.1 million with a 72% margin, indicating better pricing and unit economics.

Profitability metrics improved meaningfully. Net loss narrowed to $7.4 million from $10.1 million, while Adjusted EBITDA improved to a loss of only $0.5 million, an Adjusted EBITDA margin of -3%. Management reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance for $70.0 million revenue and positive Adjusted EBITDA of $1.0 million, suggesting confidence in continued scaling.

The capital structure, however, is stretched. As of March 31, 2026, cash stood at $4.8 million, total assets were $25.0 million, while long-term financial liabilities were $85.9 million and total stockholders’ equity was $(72.3) million. Future filings will be important to see how Marti manages liquidity and leverage while pursuing its 2026 growth and profitability targets.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"we moved to near breakeven Adjusted EBITDA."
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.
Gross Profit Margin financial
"gross profit margin reached 72%, and we moved to near breakeven"
Gross profit margin shows how much money a company keeps from sales after paying for the goods or services it sold. It’s like checking how much profit is left over from each dollar earned before covering other costs. A higher margin indicates the company makes more money from its sales, which helps assess its profitability and efficiency.
Non-GAAP financial measures financial
"Certain financial information and data contained herein are not presented in accordance with GAAP including, but not limited to, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin"
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.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains statements that are not based on historical fact and are “forward-looking statements’’"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Marti Delivers 156% Revenue Growth, 72% Gross Profit Margin in First Quarter 2026, with Significant Improvement in Profitability; Reaffirms Guidance

 

Ride-hailing momentum and platform subscription package revenue drive operating leverage, significantly improving profitability and supporting to full-year positive Adjusted EBITDA

 

Istanbul, Türkiye – May 21, 2026 - Türkiye’s leading mobility super app Marti Technologies, Inc. (“Marti” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: MRT) today announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, delivering strong revenue growth and continued operating leverage across its multi-service mobility platform.

 

Financial and Operational Highlights for First Quarter 2026

 

Marketplace demand accelerated across the platform: Total trips increased 93% YoY to 16.2 million and unique platform consumers grew 89% YoY to 2.1 million, driven by strong ride-hailing momentum. All-time unique ride-hailing riders increased 101% YoY and registered drivers grew 70% YoY, exceeding quarterly operational targets.

 

Revenue growth and operating leverage improved profitability: Revenue increased 156% to $15.4 million, net loss narrowed 26% to $7.4 million, and Adjusted EBITDA improved $3.1 million to $(0.5) million YoY, reflecting the continued success of platform subscription package monetization and improved operating leverage across our multi-service platform.

 

Gross profit margin expanded significantly on stronger unit economics: Gross profit increased $8.9 million YoY to $11.1 million, while gross profit margin expanded 3,510 basis points to 72%, driven by improved platform subscription package monetization and operating leverage despite a 14% increase in cost of revenues from higher platform activity.

 

Disciplined footprint expansion and platform optimization: Ride-hailing performance remained strong across Marti’s 20-city footprint, while two-wheeled electric vehicle services were selectively expanded into two additional cities to improve platform utilization, network density, and long-term platform efficiency.

 

“We delivered an exceptional start to 2026, exceeding our internal targets across revenue, gross profit margin, and Adjusted EBITDA,” said Oguz Alper Öktem, Founder and CEO. “Revenue grew more than 2.5x year-over-year, gross profit margin reached 72%, and we moved to near breakeven Adjusted EBITDA. This reflects the scaling of our platform subscription package monetization model and continued improvement in unit economics and operating leverage.”

 

“Our ride-hailing marketplace continues to perform strongly across our 20-city footprint in Türkiye, with significant growth in both unique ride-hailing riders and registered ride-hailing drivers,” continued Mr. Öktem. “We are also driving increased adoption of our delivery services, with 51% of motorcycle-hailing drivers and 23% of car-hailing drivers in Istanbul providing delivery services in the first quarter. In parallel, we expanded our two-wheeled electric vehicle services into two additional cities, supporting greater platform efficiency and utilization as we continue to scale our multi-service offering.”

 

“With this strong start to the year,” Mr. Öktem noted, “we are on track to achieve our 2026 goals, including our first full year of positive Adjusted EBITDA. We are laser focused on increasing efficiency across our platform and capturing additional scale opportunities as usage across the platform deepens, supporting our path toward long-term profitability.”

 

 

 

 

Financial Highlights for First Quarter 2026

 

Revenue

 

Revenue of $15.4 million in Q1’26, up 156.1% from $6.0 million in Q1’25, driven by continued success of platform monetization through subscription packages.

 

Marti is on track to achieve FY’26 revenue guidance of $70.0 million, reflecting a 78.4% YoY increase.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit increased by 400.2% in Q1’26 to $11.1 million, compared to $2.2 million in Q1’25, driven by revenue growth from platform monetization.

 

Gross profit margin improved to 72.0% in Q1’26 from 36.8% in Q1’25, reflecting strong platform monetization.

 

$4.3 million cost of revenues in Q1’26, 13.8% higher compared to $3.8 million in Q1’25, primarily driven by higher business volume across our platform, partially offset by a decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses.

 

Operating Expenses

 

$7.5 million general and administrative expenses in Q1’26, 11.9% higher compared to $6.7 million in Q1’25, primarily attributable to higher personnel expenses excluding share-based compensation expense, as well as increases in consulting and legal expenses due to ongoing public company requirements. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense. In the absence of share-based compensation expense, Q1’26 general & administrative expenses were $5.3 million.

 

Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA

 

Net loss improved to $(7.4) million in Q1’26, compared to $(10.1) million in Q1’25, representing a $2.6 million YoY improvement, driven by strong revenue growth and improved operating leverage across the platform.

 

Adjusted EBITDA improved to $(0.5) million in Q1’26, compared to $(3.6) million in Q1’25, representing a $3.1 million YoY improvement, driven by strong revenue growth, successful platform monetization, and improved operating leverage across the platform.

 

Marti is on track to achieve the FY’26 Adjusted EBITDA target of $1.0 million, which would mark the first full year of positive Adjusted EBITDA and represent a $13.1 million YoY improvement.

Ride-hailing services delivered strong performance in 20 cities across Türkiye covering approximately 80% of national GDP, while we selectively expanded two-wheeled electric vehicle service into two additional cities to enhance platform efficiency and utilization in Q1’26.

 

Average daily two-wheeled electric vehicles decreased from 25.5 thousand in Q1’25 to 20.4 thousand in Q1’26, or 19.9%, as we gradually retired older fleet units introduced in 2021.

   June 30,

Targets(1)
All-time Unique Ride-hailing Riders  4.3 million
All-time Registered Ride-hailing Drivers  530 thousand

 

(1)The target numbers of unique riders and registered drivers by June 30, 2026 are based on Marti’s current estimates and assumptions and are not a guarantee of future performance. The targets are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the risk factors discussed in the Company's reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), that could cause actual results to differ materially. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the results expressed by these targets.

 

Full Year 2026 Guidance

 

Marti is reaffirming its full year 2026 guidance, as summarized below:

 

   2026
Guidance(1)
 
Revenue$ 70.0 million  
Adjusted EBITDA$ 1.0 million  

 

(1)The Company’s 2026 guidance assumes continued growth of our platform services and the absence of any fleet size expansion or replacement investments as vehicles are retired from our two-wheeled electric vehicle fleet.

 

The full year 2026 guidance provided herein is based on Marti’s current estimates and assumptions and is not a guarantee of future performance.

There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the results expressed by this guidance.

 

This press release does not include a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to forward-looking GAAP Net Income (loss) because Marti is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to provide a meaningful or reasonably accurate calculation or estimation of certain reconciling items which could be significant to Marti’s results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Certain financial information and data contained herein are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“GAAP”) including, but not limited to, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. We define these metrics as follows:

 

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding depreciation, amortization, taxes, financial expenses (net of financial income) and one-time charges and non-cash adjustments, to net income (loss). The one-time charges and non-cash adjustments are mainly comprised of customs tax provision expenses resulting from the one-time amendment of customs duties and lawsuit provision expense which Marti did not consider the provision to be reflective of its normal cash operations.

 

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

 

These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenue, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information for management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results to those calculated in accordance with GAAP.

 

This financial information and data contained herein also includes certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these projected measures, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

 

This press release contains statements that are not based on historical fact and are “forward-looking statements’’ within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For example, statements about the anticipated growth of Marti’s service offerings, including the numbers of all-time unique riders and all-time registered drivers of the ride-hailing service, launch and growth of its package delivery business, the expected geographic expansion of services to additional cities, the full year 2026 guidance, and the expected future performance, operational efficiencies, potential size and market opportunities of Marti and its ride-hailing, delivery, and two-wheeled electric vehicle services, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements by terminology such as, or which contain the words “will,” “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “possible,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and variations of these words or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

 

These forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Marti and its management, are inherently uncertain and are subject to a number of risks and assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond Marti’s control, are difficult to predict, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Known risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: (i) our ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, and identify opportunities, (ii) the risk that we may not be able to effectively manage our growth, including our design, research, development, and maintenance capabilities, (iii) the risk of downturns in the highly competitive tech-enabled mobility services industry, (iv) our ability to build our brand and consumers’ recognition, acceptance, and adoption of our brand, (v) the impact of geopolitical tensions and international conflicts, including the military conflict occurring in the Middle East, on the global economy, inflation, energy and commodity prices and our business, (vi) volatility in the price of our securities due to a variety of factors, including without limitation changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which we operate or plan to operate, variations in competitors’ performance and success and changes in laws and regulations affecting our business, (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be initiated against us or our directors or officers, (viii) technological changes and risks associated with doing business in an emerging market, (ix) risks relating to our dependence on and use of certain intellectual property and technology, (x) our ability to maintain the listing of our securities on the NYSE American Stock Exchange (xi) our ability to grow and make profitable our business, including our ride-hailing, delivery and two-wheeled electric vehicle businesses, and (xii) other factors or risks discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at https://ir.marti.tech. Investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC as most of the factors are outside the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. As a result, the Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, such forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as predictions of future events. The Company cautions not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including its 2026 guidance and ride-hailing targets, which speak only as to management expectations and beliefs as of the date they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than to the extent required by applicable law.
