Executive summary

Crypto assets are what customers trade, store and use on the platform that Coinbase runs, and it serves customers in many countries. Retail customers use its apps to hold and trade digital currencies, while institutions use services for trading, custody and prime brokerage. It also offers staking, a subscription membership, a developer toolkit and a network built to support onchain applications. It also earns income linked to the USDC stablecoin.

Fees on trades made by customers are the main source of revenue, with subscription and services income from staking, custody and stablecoin-related activity on top. Revenue was $6.3 billion over the last twelve months and has grown at 31.0% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is 9.9%, and the business earns 5% on the capital invested in it. Net debt is -2.6 times EBITDA. No dividend is paid.

StocksXray gives Coinbase Global, Inc. an X-Ray Score of 34 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 7% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is growth (63) and its weakest is valuation (3).

Our fair value blend is $30.20 (range $30.20 to $30.20). At $173.16 the stock trades 473% above that blend, so the label is "Data under review" with high model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
