Marblegate Capital Corp (MGTE) is a specialty finance and fleet operations company focused on the New York City taxi medallion market. It makes money through interest income on medallion loans, fleet revenue from leasing taxicab vehicles and medallions to licensed drivers, and other fees. The company operates two reportable segments: Specialty Finance, which generated $18.6 million in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, and Fleet Operations, which generated fleet revenue of $29.3 million in the same period, its first full year of fleet activity. As of December 31, 2025, Marblegate held approximately 2,147 Owned Medallions, acquired primarily through enforcement actions on defaulted loans, and operated a managed fleet of approximately 917 vehicles through its subsidiary Signal Taxi. Total revenue was $48.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The company closed a $120 million revolving credit facility with DZ Bank AG in December 2025, collateralized by medallion loans held in a bankruptcy-remote SPV.
- Revenue model

Interest income was $13.5 million and fleet revenue was $29.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The company also records gains on loans held for investment, which totaled $8.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

- Customers and end markets
- End markets are NYC taxi medallion borrowers and licensed taxi drivers operating in the New York City street-hail market. Borrowers under the MRP+ program had loans reduced to $170,000 per medallion, with 33% of current medallions participating in MRP+ as of December 31, 2025.

The company positions itself to sell medallions, potentially with seller financing, converting owned assets back into loan receivables without requiring incremental capital.
- Geographic exposure
- Operations are concentrated entirely in New York City, specifically within the regulated street-hail taxi market overseen by the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC).
