Coinbase (COIN) shares fell about 4% in after-hours trading Thursday after the crypto platform reported weaker-than-expected first-quarter results as falling crypto prices weighed on trading activity, one of the company’s main sources of revenue.
The company posted a loss of $1.49 per share, compared with analyst expectations for a 27-cent profit. Revenue came in at $1.41 billion, below estimates of $1.52 billion.
Transaction revenue totaled $755.8 million, missing analyst expectations of $805.2 million. Subscription and services revenue, a segment investors closely watch as Coinbase tries to reduce its reliance on trading fees, totaled $583.5 million, below expectations of $619.3 million.
