How this is worked out

Cityfort calculation from the FY2025 10-K. Of every $100 that came in during FY2025 (total revenue plus $701 million of other income): each line = line ÷ $7,882 million × 100, rounded so the lines add to 100. Coinbase kept $16.0 as net income. Operating income was $20.0 per $100 of revenue. Stock-based pay of $839 million sits inside the cost lines.

02The business in one line

What does Coinbase do?

Crypto traders pay Coinbase fees and Circle shares USDC income with it; staff, technology and marketing are its biggest costs, and $16.0 of every $100 that came in was left as net income in FY2025.

  • In FY2025, transaction revenue was 56.5% of total revenue, subscription and services 39.4%, and other revenue 4.1%.
  • Revenue follows crypto trading: total revenue fell 35% to $1.22 billion in Q3 FY2026, from $1.87 billion a year earlier.

03Who pays it

Who pays Coinbase?

  • Consumers (trading fees)

    46%

    of revenue

    People trading crypto in the Coinbase app, and since 2025 also stocks, futures and prediction markets.

  • Circle (stablecoin revenue)

    19%

    of revenue

    Circle shares the income from the reserves behind USDC under the Circle Agreement.

  • Blockchain networks (staking rewards)

    9%

    of revenue

    Networks such as Ethereum pay rewards on staked crypto. Coinbase passes most of them to customers, an expense, and keeps a commission.

  • Institutions (trading fees)

    7%

    of revenue

    Market makers, hedge funds, asset managers and others trading through Coinbase Prime and its exchanges.

  • Other sources

    19%

    of revenue

    Other transaction revenue (3.5%), interest and finance fees (3.4%), custody, Coinbase One and other services (7.7%), and interest on Coinbase's own cash (4.1%); the parts are rounded separately. Shares are a Cityfort calculation from the FY2025 10-K.

  • Circle (stablecoin revenue)19%
  • Blockchain networks (staking rewards)9%
  • Institutions (trading fees)7%
  • Other sources19%

Customer concentration

The FY2025 10-K says one counterparty was 19% of FY2025 revenue (14% in FY2024 and 22% in FY2023). Coinbase's Q3 FY2025 10-Q ties that counterparty to stablecoin revenue. One counterparty was 27% of Q3 FY2026 revenue.

04Why it makes money

Why does Coinbase make money?

Coinbase's costs move slowly while its revenue follows crypto trading, so profit swings more than revenue.

Total revenue fell 59% in FY2022, and operating income went from $39.2 per $100 of revenue in FY2021 to −$84.8. By FY2025 revenue was $7.18 billion and operating income $20.0 per $100. Subscription and services, 39.4% of FY2025 revenue, moves less with trading; Coinbase says stablecoin revenue depends on interest rates and USDC in circulation.

Operating income per $100 of revenue

$39.2$20.0

FY2021 to FY2025

  1. Crypto prices rise and people trade more
  2. Trading fees and assets on the platform grow
  3. Staff, technology and marketing costs change more slowly
  4. More of each dollar reaches operating income
  5. When prices and trading fall, most costs remain
  6. Stablecoin and staking income soften the swing

↺ Step 6 feeds back into step 1.

EBITDA here = operating income plus depreciation and amortization (from the cash flow statement). Fiscal years are the company's own (Dec 31; Coinbase's fiscal year is the calendar year, so Q3 FY2026 is July to September 2026). Net profit is the share belonging to the company's owners. Total net income differs from net profit to the company's owners: Net income to common stockholders ($3,097 million) is below total net income ($3,624 million) because preferred shares from before the April 2021 listing shared in the year's earnings.

  • Licenses

    Coinbase says it holds more than 80 licenses. Its two main custody units are examined by the New York State Department of Financial Services and state money-transmission regulators.

Coinbase had $8.60 billion of cash and cash equivalents at Sep 30, 2026, against $6.70 billion of debt and short-term borrowings, so cash exceeded debt by $1.91 billion (Cityfort calculation from the Q3 FY2026 10-Q).

$ of debt for every $1 of shareholders' money
  • Debt is $5.95 billion of convertible and senior notes (carrying value) plus $749 million of short-term borrowings, mostly in crypto and stablecoins, that fund lending to institutions. Coinbase states debt principal of $6.0 billion, maturing from 2028 to 2032, after it repaid $1.27 billion of notes on Jun 1, 2026.

  • Customer custodial funds of $4.46 billion sit in assets with an equal liability, so they are left out. Customers' crypto ($376.6 billion) is not on the balance sheet at all.
  • Coinbase's own crypto held for investment, $2.22 billion at fair value, is not counted as cash here.
  • Interest cover is left blank because operating income was negative in Q1 and Q2 FY2026.
