    MARA (MARA) Valuation Under the Microscope After VanEck Debt and Bitcoin Holdings Analysis

    Recent comments from VanEck’s Matthew Sigel have put MARA Holdings (MARA) under the microscope, arguing the stock trades at a premium to its underlying bitcoin once sizeable convertible debt is properly accounted for.

    See our latest analysis for MARA Holdings.

    That debate lands at a time when MARA’s 1 month share price return of minus 26.02 percent and year to date share price return of minus 31.78 percent point to fading momentum, even though its 3 year total shareholder return of 134.80 percent still reflects substantial longer term upside for those who rode earlier cycles.

    If this kind of volatility has you thinking more broadly about opportunities around digital infrastructure and computing, it may be worth exploring high growth tech and AI stocks as a next step.

    With MARA now trading near half of consensus price targets, modest revenue growth, and intense scrutiny of its leverage, the question for investors is simple: Is this a genuine buying opportunity, or is future growth already fully priced in?

    Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 51% Undervalued

    With MARA Holdings last closing at $11.74 against a narrative fair value of $23.96, the most followed storyline sees substantial upside still on the table.

    Continued transition to an asset-heavy, vertically integrated business model with a focus on owned low-cost renewable energy assets enables MARA to achieve sector-leading energy efficiency and cost structure, supporting superior net margin expansion over time as legacy, expensive contracts roll off.

    Read the complete narrative.

    Curious how a business facing shrinking headline earnings can still warrant a sharply higher value, driven by revenue growth assumptions and a strikingly rich future profit multiple? The answer lies in a tight set of forecasts for margins, capital intensity, and share count that challenge how you think about this miner turned infrastructure operator. Want to see the exact levers behind that fair value gap, and why the narrative believes they can pull them off?

    Result: Fair Value of $23.96 (UNDERVALUED)

    Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.

    However, if bitcoin prices sag or MARA stumbles in executing its capital intensive, vertically integrated build out, those bullish valuation assumptions could quickly unravel.
