Marti Technologies, Inc. (MRT)

Marti is a Turkish ride-hailing and e-mobility platform in the middle of a genuine operating inflection: revenue grew 140.7% YoY in Q2 2026 with a 76.6% gross margin, GAAP EBIT turned positive, Adjusted EBITDA turned positive for the first time, and FY2026 guidance was raised to $85M revenue and +$7M Adjusted EBITDA. But the balance sheet is deeply distressed: negative equity of about -$84M, $116M of liabilities against only $32M of assets, roughly $107M of 11-15% coupon convertible debt, an adverse court ruling that ride-hailing is unfair competition (under appeal), unremediated internal-control weaknesses, and unhedged Turkish macro risk. Weak and high-risk overall — a speculative turnaround to watch, not a fundamental buy.

Dominant catalyst is the announced Q2 2026 earnings print (2026-08-19) — a market-rewarded revenue beat with FY26 guidance raised, tagged bullish on market reception — but it is trailing and only partially priced, with no forward-dated event in the next 30 days. Sentiment delta is indeterminate (no numeric baseline aggregate polarity; the 14-day tape is mildly positive at ≈ +0.14 over a qualitatively mixed-to-bearish baseline), Reddit velocity is indeterminate on a single zero-comment thread, and the Red-Flag Screen is clean with no cap applied.

Score 4 (strong setup, one weak signal): bullish trend/momentum confirmations across the stack — price 2.28 above sma20 1.92 / sma50 1.74 / sma200 2.03 and ema9 2.09 / ema21 1.95, MACD positive and rising (line 0.12, signal 0.08, histogram 0.04), ADX 51.4 rising with price above key MAs — with extremely thin volume as the single weak frame. The score describes chart quality only; tradability is separately blocked by the fundamental override (fundamentalScore 2 < 3) and the liquidity floors.
