Coinbase Shares Slump After Big Q3 Earnings Miss on ‘Softer’ Market Condition

Coinbase (COIN) third-quarter earnings and revenue missed Wall Street analysts’ estimates on Wednesday, sending shares slumping in after hours trading.

The crypto exchange said its third-quarter total revenue was $1.2 billion versus the average estimate of $1.26 billion, according to FactSet veri. Meanwhile, earnings per share of $0.28 missed analyst expectations of $0.45. Coinbase’s third-quarter adjusted Ebitda of $449 million also missed estimate of $469.2 million.

The crypto exchange primarily suffered from weaker market conditions, the firm said in a shareholder letter, noting that it saw growth in some areas. “Despite softer market conditions, we saw average native unit growth across staking, on-platform USDC, and custody, which helps diversify revenue over the long-run,” Coinbase said.

Coinbase’s main source of income is transaction fees, which fell 27% from the second quarter as trading volume across U.S.-based exchanges slipped further. “Crypto asset volatility — a key driver of trading volume — declined approximately 5% when comparing the Q3 average with the Q2 average,” the company said in the letter.

Shares of the exchange slumped nearly 7% in the minutes following the report. Year-to-date, the stock rose about 22% amid broader bullish sentiment in digital assets.

Despite continued regulatory uncertainty in the U.S., the company has launched several new projects this year, including most recently a feature that lets Visa debit card holders transfer funds to their Coinbase accounts nearly instantly.

In an effort to diversify its revenue and avoid solely relying on high trading volume, the exchange has also made it a point to build out its other ventures, including its custody offerings and participation in the tokenization of real-world assets.
