Although Coinbase reported a $667 million net loss due to investment write-downs, the stock rallied as analysts highlighted its diversified growth and Ark Invest increased its position.
Coinbase shares rose 12% after the company reported Q4 net revenue of $1.71 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $566 million, both missing analyst expectations. The results included a $667 million GAAP net loss attributed to unrealized crypto and strategic investment losses. While analysts from Barclays, Benchmark, and Clear Street lowered price targets citing near-term pressures, they acknowledged the strengths of Coinbase's diversified business model, and Ark Invest continued to accumulate shares.
