MARA Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday, potentially driven by Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) continued price surge.

What To Know: Bitcoin has gained about 125% so far this year. Several crypto-related stocks are moving higher Wednesday after Bitcoin briefly hit all-time highs. Bitcoin was up about 1.1% over a 24-hour period, trading around $94,100 at last check.
Optimism around President-elect Donald Trump's incoming administration has also boosted sentiment. Trump has said he would establish a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42080839/cynthia-lummis-says-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-could-take-shape-soon-after-trump-raises-his-hand-and-is-sworn-in">strategic&nbsp;Bitcoin reserve</a>&nbsp;upon his return to the White House. 
Speaking at Benzinga's <a href="https://benzinga.swoogo.com/fintech-awards/agenda-2024" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fintech Deal Day</a> on Tuesday, Michael Terpin, CEO of The Transform Group, predicted that Bitcoin could reach $193,000 in late 2025, with potential highs of $200,000 to $300,000 by the end of its current cycle if regulatory conditions improve.

The trading activity in Marathon, one of the largest Bitcoin miners, is closely tied to Bitcoin's performance. Rising Bitcoin prices increase the value of MARA&#8217;s Bitcoin holdings. Interestingly enough, MARA Holdings is outperforming other Bitcoin mining peers on Wednesday. The outperformance may be due to the company&#8217;s strategy to raise capital to accumulate Bitcoin, similar to MicroStrategy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), which continues to see relative outperformance.
MARA Holdings adopted a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39958725/marathon-digital-buys-bitcoin-adopts-full-hodl-strategy-whats-going-on-with-the-mining-sto">"full HODL"</a> strategy for its Bitcoin treasury policy earlier this year, retaining all Bitcoin it mines and periodically making strategic open market purchases. The company held a total of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41923273/mara-holdings-q3-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-miss-2070-bitcoin-mined-energized-hash-rate-up-9-exahash-target-firmly-in-sight">26,747 Bitcoin</a> as of Sept. 30.

Analyst Ratings

Macquarie Maintains Outperform on MARA Holdings, Raises Price Target to $29

MARA Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) shares are trading lower by 5.6% to $19.90 Monday morning after the company announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g42032618/mara-holdings-inc-announces-proposed-private-offering-of-700-million-of-convertible-senior-notes">$700 million convertible note offering</a> to boost its Bitcoin holdings and repurchase debt.
What To Know: MARA Holdings announced a private offering of $700 million in convertible senior notes due 2030, with an option for initial purchasers to buy an additional $105 million. 
The company says the notes will bear semi-annual interest starting March 1, 2025, and mature on March 1, 2030, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. 
Redemption and conversion terms include conditions beginning in 2027 and 2028, respectively. Proceeds will be used to repurchase existing 2026 convertible notes, acquire bitcoin and support corporate purposes, including debt repayment and strategic expansion.
MARA meanwhile says the repurchase of 2026 notes may lead to market activity, as hedged holders could buy MARA stock or adjust derivative positions, potentially impacting MARA's stock price and the conversion price of the new notes. The final terms, including the interest rate and conversion rate, will be set at pricing.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy MARA Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for MARA Holdings &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so. 
In the the case of MARA Holdings, which is trading at $21.07 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 4.75 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, MARA has a 52-week high of $34.09 and a 52-week low of $9.21.

Why Bitcoin-Related Stock MARA Holdings Is Falling

Marathon Digital Holdings shares are trading lower after the company announced a $700 million convertible note offering to boost Bitcoin holdings and repurchase debt.

MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) ("MARA" or the "Company"), a global leader in leveraging digital asset compute to support the energy transformation, today announced that it intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $700 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "notes") in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). MARA also expects to grant to the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an additional $105 million aggregate principal amount of the notes. The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether, when or on what terms the offering may be completed.
The notes will be unsecured, senior obligations of MARA and will bear interest payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on March 1, 2025. The notes will mature on March 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms. Subject to certain conditions, on or after March 5, 2028, MARA may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes. If MARA redeems fewer than all the outstanding notes, at least $75 million aggregate principal amount of notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the relevant redemption notice date. Holders of the notes will have the right to require MARA to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes on December 1, 2027. The notes will be convertible into cash, shares of MARA's common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of MARA's common stock, at MARA's election. Prior to December 1, 2029, the notes will be convertible only upon the occurrence of certain events and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The interest rate, initial conversion rate, and other terms of the notes will be determined at the time of pricing of the offering. MARA expects that the reference price used to calculate the initial conversion price for the notes will be the U.S. composite volume weighted average price of MARA's common stock from 2:00 p.m. through 4:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on the date of pricing.
MARA expects to use up to $200 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to repurchase a portion of its existing convertible notes due 2026 (the "existing 2026 convertible notes") in privately negotiated transactions with the remainder of the net proceeds to be used to acquire additional bitcoin and for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, strategic acquisitions, expansion of existing assets, and repayment of additional debt and other outstanding obligations.

Core Scientific, Inc. - Class A Common Stock

CORZ

CRWD

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC/USD) miner MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) shares are trading lower on Wednesday. Analysts expressed views on third-quarter <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MARA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">earnings reported yesterday</a>.
On Tuesday, MARA reported third-quarter revenue of $131.6 million, missing the&nbsp;consensus estimate of $151.67 million and an adjusted loss of 34 cents per share, missing analyst estimates <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41923273/mara-holdings-q3-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-miss-2070-bitcoin-mined-energized-hash-rate-up-9-exahash-target-firmly-in-sight" rel="noreferrer noopener">for a loss of 26 cents per share</a>.
H.C. Wainwright analyst Kevin Dede reiterated the Buy rating and raised the price target to $28 from $27. The analyst notes the current multiple is justified given Bitcoin&#8217;s recent surge and increased access through ETFs.
Meanwhile, the analyst lowered the FY24 sales estimate to $597.6 million from $621.1 million due to the results and a more conservative 4.5-cent hash price outlook.
Dede revised FY25 sales to $774.4 million, down slightly from $777.4 million, pending new business impact. The forecast assumes a slower ramp-up to 50 EH/s by early 2025, relying on Bitmain and Auradine for miners, adds the analyst.
JP Morgan analyst Reginald L. Smith has rated the company as Underweight. The analyst writes that MARA was one of the few miners in their coverage to surpass network hashrate growth in the third quarter, but total revenue fell due to lower BTC prices and hosting revenue.
While MARA has no plans to manage AI/HPC compute, it is positioning itself as an infrastructure supplier to data center operators and a leader in energy transformation with proprietary technologies, adds the analyst.
Although it remains the largest publicly traded miner by hashrate and is diversifying away from pure-play mining, the analyst notes its premium valuation is not fully justified, given the deteriorating economics.
Needham analyst John Todaro has given the miner a Hold rating. The analyst says that as Bitcoin rallies into 2025, peaking around $100k per BTC, they anticipate margin relief for miners like MARA.
However, rising hash rates could offset some of these gains, adds the analyst. The analyst assumes more conservative hash growth for MARA going forward and that the company does not pursue HPC/AI initiatives.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry and Digital Economy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRPT#NYSE">CRPT</a>) and iShares Trust iShares Blockchain and Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBLC#NYSE">IBLC</a>).
Price Action: MARA shares are down 5.23% at $23.91 at the last check Wednesday.

MARA Holdings Faces Mixed Analyst Sentiment: Revenue Miss And Conservative Forecasts Amid Bitcoin Rally

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining stocks MARA Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>), Riot Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) and CleanSpark Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLSK#NASDAQ">CLSK</a>) are trading lower Wednesday morning despite a surge in the price of bitcoin. Here&#8217;s a look at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41923273/mara-holdings-q3-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-miss-2070-bitcoin-mined-energized-hash-rate-up-9-exahash-target-firmly-in-sight">what&#8217;s going on</a>.

Bitcoin mining stocks outpaced bitcoin&#8217;s gains at the start of the week, which may help explain some of the muted action on Wednesday. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BTC-USD">Bitcoin</a> miners may also be moving lower after MARA Holdings reported third-quarter financial results that fell short of analyst expectations. 
MARA Holdings reported third-quarter revenue of $131.6 million, missing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate</a> of $151.67 million, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/gxjhpowx7zks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.

MARA Holdings said it mined 2,070 bitcoin during the quarter as its energized hash rate increased 9% quarter-over-quarter to 40.2 EH/s. The company held a total of 26,747 Bitcoin at quarter's end.
"We believe we are on a strong growth trajectory, with no plans to slow down. We anticipate continued expansion across U.S. and international markets and have set ambitious goals to expand our portfolio of owned and operated sites,&#8221; the company said in a letter to shareholders.
MARA Holdings shares were down about 4.25% at last check, while Riot shares were down more than 5% and CleanSpark shares were down more than 6%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
CleanSpark is the only one of the group that has not yet reported financial results this quarter. The company is due to report sometime near the end of the month. Analysts are anticipating a loss of 18 cents per share and revenue of $88.65 million, according to estimates from <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
