On May 4, 2023, Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN) is gearing up to release its Q1 earnings after the market closes on May 6, 2021. Experts are predicting that Coinbase may report a decline in revenue from $1.17 billion in the first quarter of the previous year to $649.4 million. According to The Street, the company is expected to post revenues of $654.2 million in Q1, which is a 44% decrease from the prior-year quarter. Analysts are anticipating a decrease in earnings per share from $1.98 to $1.36 in the first quarter.
Coinbase has faced some challenges in the past year, including missing earnings per share estimates from analysts for four consecutive quarters and missing revenue estimates in three of the last four quarters. Ahead of the earnings release, Needham analyst John Todaro predicts a 23% decline in USD Coin’s (USDC-USD) market cap due to the failure of Silicon Valley Bank, which negatively impacted interest income. Additionally, the analyst lowered the Q1 trading volume estimate from $147 billion to $151 billion.
Coinbase has also faced significant headwinds in Q1 due to heightened market uncertainty and regulatory issues with the SEC. While the company is not likely to comment on ongoing regulatory issues, investors will be paying close attention to any updates on the company’s legal battles. Technical analysis suggests a bearish trend for Coinbase stock ahead of the Q1 earnings release.
