1.2 The Key Positives, Negatives, and Investment summary
1.3 Top 10 shareholders:
The top 10 shareholders together form ~ 31.61% of the total shareholding, signifying concentrated shareholding. The Vanguard Group, Inc. and BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A. are the biggest shareholders, holding the maximum stake in the company at 11.21% and 4.90%, respectively.
1.4 Key Metrics:
In Q2 FY25, Coinbase’s financial performance reflected a mixed picture of margin compression in operating efficiency but a sharp uplift in profitability on a net basis. Gross profit margin declined from 86.79% in Q2 FY24 to 83.62% in Q2 FY25, indicating rising cost pressures relative to revenues. Similarly, EBITDA margin contracted significantly from 25.98% to 0.13%, and the operating margin deteriorated from 23.46% to -2.13%, reflecting elevated expenses and one-off costs such as the data theft charge. However, profitability at the bottom line expanded materially, with income before tax margin improving from -4.16% to 121.81% and net margin surging from 2.49% to 95.44%, primarily due to large unrealized gains from strategic investments and crypto portfolio revaluations. On a capital efficiency front, the company delivered higher returns, with ROE rising from 20.99% to 27.96% and ROA improving from 0.70% to 1.84%, though the free cash flow yield slipped modestly from 1.70% to 1.41% TTM, underscoring reduced cash conversion. Overall, while operating performance weakened, extraordinary gains and improved capital returns drove robust bottom-line metrics.
