The main question: the share price moved −1.8% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −157.3%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the Marqeta share price today? Marqeta, Inc.'s share price was $17.80 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been stalling near its high for 5 weeks. That is 7.2% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 5 weeks in a row. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $15 and $20, and at that close it sat 51% of the way up from that low. Over the last 5.4 years the share price moved −86% while the S&P 500 moved +78%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Marqeta pay? Marqeta, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Marqeta on?

## Is Marqeta profitable? Marqeta, Inc. earned $7.6 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $13.9 M. That is 4.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $647 K. 9 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was −$13.9 M (−151.0% on the year before). ## How much revenue does Marqeta make, and is it growing? Marqeta, Inc. reported $176 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +17.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 4.8% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $625 M. The last four reported quarters add to $677 M. FY25 revenue was $625 M, +23.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +22.6% on average, against 4.8% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +22.4%, against +19.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Marqeta keep? Marqeta, Inc.'s operating margin was 2.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 7.3 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −41.4% and −4.8%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +7.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.0 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Marqeta's profit turning into cash? Marqeta, Inc.'s cash-flow history is too short to judge how much of its profit turns into cash. In FY25 it brought in $163 M of operating cash against −$13.9 M of profit. After $1.8 M of spending on assets, $161 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Marqeta's cash go? Marqeta, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $5.0 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 0.3% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $5.0 M over the last 3 years. In short: most of the cash goes on covering the loss, not on new assets; spending on assets is small next to it. ## What is Marqeta's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Marqeta, Inc.'s P/E is 13.7×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −157.3% while the price moved −1.8%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Marqeta business getting better or worse? Marqeta, Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Marqeta earn on its capital? Marqeta, Inc. earned a ROE of −2% in FY25. That is up from a low of −18% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is left out: on sales this small it reads −1,595%, a number that says nothing useful about the business. It comes from a −2.2% net margin and 0.41× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −2.2% net margin × 0.41× asset turnover × 2.00× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −1.8% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. ## Does Marqeta have too much debt? Marqeta, Inc. has total debt of $6.7 M against shareholder equity of $716 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.01× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.01 in FY21 to 0.01 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Marqeta shareholding pattern? 5.0% of Marqeta, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 4.6 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Marqeta from balance-sheet trouble? For Marqeta, Inc., the Z-score is 1.90. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 1.90 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Marqeta rank in its industry?
