Coinbase Reports $2 Billion Revenue, Stock Drops Nearly 3% in Aftermarket

Coinbase (COIN) shares fell nearly 3% in post-market trading following a revenue drop in Q1, which missed analyst estimates amid economic uncertainty in the U.S.

  • Revenue was $2 billion, down from $2.27 billion in Q4 and below estimates of $2.1 billion.
  • Earnings per share were $0.24, missing the expected $1.93.
  • Trading volume decreased by 10% to $393.1 billion quarter over quarter.
  • Transaction revenue was $1.3 billion, about 19% lower than in Q4.
  • Increased crypto asset volatility was noted, with BTC reaching an all-time high in January before prices fell due to broader market declines.
  • Analysts had previously cut forecasts as crypto trading volumes slowed amidst U.S. economic uncertainties.
  • Coinbase's acquisition of Deribit for $2.9 billion positions it as a leader in global crypto options trading.

This acquisition could influence derivatives markets significantly as investors monitor upcoming changes.
