Gemini’s first earnings since its IPO showed doubled revenue and ambitious expansion plans, but a steeper-than-expected loss sent shares tumbling over 8% pre-market.
Gemini Space Station, the crypto exchange founded by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, reported Q3 revenue of $50.6 million, doubling from the prior year, but posted a net loss of $159.5 million, or $6.67 per share, exceeding analysts’ $3.24 loss forecast. The shortfall was driven by high marketing and IPO-related costs. Shares fell 8.67% pre-market to $15.38, down from its September IPO price of $28. Despite the loss, increased trading activity and non-exchange products like a crypto rewards credit card and staking services fueled revenue growth, which outpaced Coinbase’s 55% growth. CFO Dan Chen stated the company maintains ample liquidity. Gemini is developing a multi-product “super app” beyond crypto trading, including regulated prediction markets for sports and political events, pending approval.
