Coinbase Q3 net income $719M as revenue falls 35% to $1.22B

Coinbase said third-quarter net income was $719 million while Techmeme, citing Bloomberg, said revenue fell 35% year over year to $1.22 billion, in line with estimates, with most of the profit from unrealized crypto gains.

Coinbase Global Inc. on Thursday reported third-quarter net income of $719 million, while Techmeme, summarizing Bloomberg, said revenue fell 35% from a year earlier to $1.22 billion, matching estimates1,2.

Techmeme said the profit was Coinbase's first in a year and rose 66% from a year earlier, driven by unrealized gains on crypto assets1. Coinbase's release reported adjusted net income of $78 million and adjusted EBITDA of $333 million, up 60% from the second quarter and the 15th consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA2.

The company's earnings statement did not highlight the year-over-year revenue percentage change that Bloomberg led with1,2. Coinbase said subscription and services revenue was 49% of net revenue in the quarter ended Sept. 302.

Coinbase said average USDC held in its products reached a record $22 billion, about 30% of average USDC market capitalization, and that paid Coinbase One subscribers hit an all-time high, up 24% year over year2.

The company said its crypto trading volume market share reached 10.7%, a fourth straight quarterly gain, and that assets on platform returned to a peak 12.5% of total crypto market capitalization2. Prediction markets surpassed $200 million in annualized revenue, Coinbase said, with daily traders up more than 60% from the prior quarter2.

Chief Executive Brian Armstrong said the company had returned to peak assets-on-platform market share and called prediction markets among its fastest-growing products2. Chief Financial Officer Alesia Haas said subscription and services revenue grew from the prior quarter and that prediction markets are less correlated with crypto volatility2.
