Transaction revenue was $599M, while subscription and services revenue was $555M, representing 48% of net revenue and helping buffer lower trading volumes.
The company recorded a GAAP net loss of $359M, but generated Adjusted EBITDA of $208M, marking the 14th consecutive positive quarter on this basis. Coinbase highlighted an all‑time high 10.3% Coinbase Crypto Trading Volume Market Share, gaining share in both spot and derivatives despite Total Market Crypto Spot Trading Volume declining 25% and overall crypto market capitalization falling 11% quarter over quarter.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $8.6B, and Coinbase cited $10B in available resources plus $1.6B in crypto and marketable investments. The company has returned more than $2.0B to shareholders via repurchases, with roughly half of its buyback authorization remaining and over 85% of stock‑based compensation issuance since Q4 2024 offset. Guidance narrows 2026 Adjusted Expenses to $4.2–$4.45B, implying roughly flat year‑over‑year levels excluding USDC rewards growth.

All outstanding equity awards, other equity-based instruments, and convertible notes due 2026, 2029, 2030, and 2032 now reference Texas-incorporated equity on the same terms, and the Class A common stock continues to trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol COIN.

Coinbase is also providing a legal opinion from its counsel, Fenwick & West LLP, regarding the validity of the Class A common stock covered, filed as Exhibit 5.1 along with a related consent and XBRL cover page exhibit.
Coinbase completed a private offering of $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 and $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2032, including full exercise of the purchasers' options, for $3.0 billion aggregate principal. Net proceeds were approximately $2,957.1 million after discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses, of which $224.3 million was used to pay for capped call transactions. The 2029 Notes mature on October 1, 2029 and the 2032 Notes mature on October 1, 2032 and are senior unsecured obligations.
The 2029 Notes have an initial conversion rate of 2.2005 shares per $1,000 (≈ $454.44 per share, ~52.5% premium to the $297.99 last sale price on August 5, 2025) and the 2032 Notes have an initial conversion rate of 2.5327 shares per $1,000 (≈ $394.84 per share, ~32.5% premium).

Coinbase entered capped call transactions with an initial cap price of ≈ $595.98 (≈100% premium) intended to reduce dilution, but dilution may still occur if market price exceeds the cap.
