MARA Holdings Inc. (MARA), a major player in digital energy and crypto infrastructure, released its unaudited Bitcoin production figures for June 2025 and shared its full-year hashrate forecast.

The firm mined 713 BTC in June, down 25% from May’s 950 BTC, with an average daily output of 23.8 BTC, compared to 30.7 BTC in the previous month.

Despite the news, MARA stock traded over 1% higher on Tuesday afternoon.

The decline was primarily driven by reduced operational uptime resulting from weather-induced power curtailments, as well as the short-term deployment of older mining equipment in Garden City during storm recovery efforts, said Chairman and CEO Fred Thiel.

MARA’s energized hashrate slipped slightly to 57.4 EH/s from 58.3 EH/s in May, while its proportion of network miner rewards decreased from 6.5% to 5.4%. 

Transaction fees accounted for approximately 1.4% of its total Bitcoin income for the month.

The company ended June holding 49,940 BTC. MARA chose not to sell any of its Bitcoin holdings during the month, indicating a strategy focused on accumulation. 

"With 1.7 gigawatts (“GW”) of captive capacity – including 1.1 GW currently operational – and a growth pipeline exceeding 3 GW of low-cost power opportunities, we are targeting 75 exahash by the end of 2025,” said Thiel.

“This target represents over 40% growth from 2024, supported by machine orders already in place.” 

For the first quarter of 2025 (Q1), MARA’s revenue climbed 29.4% YoY to $213.8 million, missing the analyst consensus estimate of $217.5 million, as per Finchat data.

The company held $2.08 million in cash and equivalents as of the end of March.
