Market cap$521.5bn

Class B is small (0.75%) but converts 1:1, so it belongs in the total. Mastercard carries very large treasury stock from a long-running buyback (shares outstanding are already net of it — do not subtract again). Count is shrinking steadily on repurchases. The Mastercard Foundation holds a large Class A stake that is included in shares outstanding but is subject to transfer restrictions.

Share counts move on a filing cadence, prices move continuously — so this figure is exact only as of the two dates above, and we publish both rather than a single undated number. Provenance.

Fundamentals

From the 10-K for the year ended 2025-12-31USDAs reported
Revenueus-gaap:Revenues $32.8bn

Net margin 45.6% — net income divided by revenue, both from this same filing.
Market cap / net income 34.8× — a market value from 2026-08-28 divided by earnings for a year that ended 2025-12-31. The two dates are far apart on purpose: this is arithmetic on two published numbers, not a valuation.

Every figure above is read from the same 10-K, filed 2026-02-11, and each row names the XBRL tag it came from so it can be checked against the document. Metrics absent from that filing are absent here rather than sourced from a different year — a table mixing periods is individually true and collectively meaningless.

Identifier crosswalk

StandardValueWhat it answers
Ticker MA Venue-local shorthand — ambiguous across markets
MIC XNYS ISO 10383 — the venue
ISIN US57636Q1040 ISO 6166 — the security
LEI AR5L2ODV9HN37376R084 ISO 17442 — the legal entity
FIGI BBG001SKNNS6 OpenFIGI — instrument, share class
CUSIP 57636Q104 Derived from the US/CA ISIN, check digit verified — licensed identifier, not republished as data

6 naming systems for one entity — only codes we actually hold are listed, with no gaps filled by guessing. Sources: LEI from GLEIF (CC0), ISIN read from the issuer's own primary listing document, with its ISO 6166 check digit validated, FIGI from OpenFIGI (open standard), MIC from the ISO 10383 registry. CUSIP appears because it is arithmetically embedded in US and Canadian ISINs — we derive and verify it from a code we already hold, and we do not redistribute CUSIP Global Services data. Each linked code opens its reverse-lookup page; the validator checks any code's check digit. seed-0.7 · marketcap-1 · 2026-08-30.
