We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events, or circumstances could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Financial Statements”) and the accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”)**. Th**e following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, those set forth under Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those discussed in the section titled Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report, together with any updates in the section titled Risk Factors in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q*. Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, references to “we,” “ou**r,” “us,” “the Company,” and “Coinbase” refer to Coinbase Global, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. For all narrative provided in this Item 2, except the Executive Overview, two numbers presented consecutively represent figures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same periods in 2025, respectively, unless otherwise noted. In the Executive Overview, consecutive pairs represent the three and six month periods ended June 30 of the applicable year, respectively.*

Executive Overview

This executive overview of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations highlights selected information and does not contain all of the information that is important to readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our top three product priorities for 2026 are to grow the everything exchange, scale stablecoins and payments, and expand onchain adoption. During 2026, we continued to execute against our top product priorities. We saw resilience in crypto derivatives trading volume against the market backdrop, expanded tradable assets on our platform, grew volume in equities and prediction markets, increased average USDC held in Coinbase products to an all-time high, and grew decentralized exchange trading and balances borrowed and lent through Coinbase. With growing regulatory clarity, we believe we are well-positioned to drive crypto’s role in the global economy. We are working to further grow assets on our platform, and in turn revenue, as customers discover and adopt more products where their assets already reside.

Highlights

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our net revenue was $1.2 billion and $2.5 billion, including $599.2 million and $1.4 billion in transaction revenue and $555.1 million and $1.1 billion in subscription and services revenue. For the same periods in 2025, our net revenue was $1.4 billion and $3.3 billion, including $764.3 million and $2.0 billion in transaction revenue and $632.2 million and $1.3 billion in subscription and services revenue.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our net loss was $359.5 million and $753.6 million, and Adjusted EBITDA was $207.8 million and $511.1 million. For the same periods in 2025, our net income was $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion, and Adjusted EBITDA was $512.1 million and $1.4 billion.

Assets on Platform (“AOP”) were $245.9 billion and $425.0 billion at June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in AOP primarily reflects a $196.5 billion decline driven primarily by the decline in prices of certain crypto assets held on our platform, offset in part by growth in units, both largely attributable to Bitcoin.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, Monthly Transacting Users (“MTUs”) were 7.6 million and 7.9 million. For the same periods in 2025, MTUs were 8.7 million and 9.2 million. The

decrease in MTUs was primarily due to a decrease in trading users, influenced by overall market conditions.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, we no longer include Trading Volume as a key metric. As our business has evolved to support multiple asset classes, we believe the prior Trading Volume metric which focused on spot crypto volume no longer reflects the breadth of our business. Additionally, we do not believe that a total trading volume metric would fully represent the business given the differences in economics across our diversified trading products. We believe that net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA best reflect the financial health of our business, and we believe that metrics focused on users and assets are better operational indicators as they measure the trust customers place in Coinbase and our ability to attract and retain users. See the section titled Non-GAAP and Other Measures for definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, AOP, and MTUs, as well as a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

Anticipated Trends

We plan to dynamically adjust our expense base in order to be responsive to market conditions and revenue opportunities, increasing or decreasing it as needed, especially with respect to certain variable expenses. We anticipate the restructuring plan announced in May 2026 (the “Restructuring”) will help us better align our operating expenses with current market conditions and optimize our operations for the AI era. See Note 3. Restructuring of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details on the Restructuring. For the year ending December 31, 2026, we anticipate the aggregate of technology and development, general and administrative, and sales and marketing expenses, excluding amortization of intangible assets, to be slightly higher than for the year ended December 31, 2025, driven by USDC rewards.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

Revenue

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we generated 85% and 84% of total revenue in the U.S. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated 86% and 85% of total revenue in the U.S. No other country accounted for more than 10% of total revenue during the periods presented. International revenue consisted mainly of transaction revenue in all periods presented.

Market risk is the risk to our Financial Statements associated with the effect of changes in market factors, including risks associated with interest rates, foreign currency, derivatives, marketable and strategic investments, and crypto assets. These assets and liabilities are held for purposes other than trading, except for our marketable investments, which are available for trading. There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures from the information presented in Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in the Annual Report except for our market risk exposure on our crypto assets held for investment. Though the nature of this exposure and the overall implied volatility of the crypto assets underlying this exposure have not changed since December 31, 2025, the number of units we hold and the price of the assets have changed, resulting in a material change in the output of our sensitivity analysis.

Crypto assets held for investment are primarily held long term, and historically, we have not attempted to reduce our market risk exposure associated with these crypto assets. Crypto asset prices have been volatile, as demonstrated by the one-year historical volatility of Bitcoin and Ethereum of approximately 50% implied from the annualized standard deviation of daily price returns observed in the past 24 months. A hypothetical 50% increase or decrease in crypto asset prices as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 would result in an $734.2 million and $1.0 billion impact, respectively, to the value of our Crypto assets held for investment and would have been recognized as a gain or loss in Losses on crypto assets held for investment, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The decrease in the hypothetical gains or losses since December 31, 2025 primarily reflects a decrease in the prices of crypto assets held for investment.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2026. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were, in design and operation, effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, in designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For a description of material legal proceedings in which we are involved, see Note 20. Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

We are not presently a party to any other legal or regulatory proceedings that in the opinion of our management, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. However, we are subject to regulatory oversight by numerous state, federal, and foreign regulators and we are and we may become subject to various legal proceedings, inquiries, investigations, and demand letters that arise in the course of our business. For example, we have received investigative subpoenas and other inquiries from various state agencies and attorneys general for documents and information pertaining to our business practices and policies, customer complaints, asset launches, certain ongoing litigation, and certain transfers of crypto assets. In addition, we have received investigative subpoenas and demand letters from various regulators for documents and information, including about certain customer programs, operations, and existing and intended future products, including our processes for listing assets, the classification of certain listed assets, our staking programs, and our stablecoin and yield-generating products. We intend to cooperate fully with such investigations. These examples are not exhaustive.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the Annual Report, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the Financial Statements and related notes. The risks and uncertainties described in the Annual Report are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of or that we deem immaterial may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any such risks occur, our business, operating results, financial condition, and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In October 2024, our board of directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program, which provided for the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding Class A common stock without expiration. In October 2025, our board of directors (i) increased the aggregate repurchase authorization under the program from $1.0 billion to $2.0 billion and (ii) expanded the scope of the repurchases to include a portion of the aggregate principal amount of our then outstanding 2026 Convertible Notes, 2029 Convertible Notes, 2030 Convertible Notes, 2032 Convertible Notes, and both series of Senior Notes (collectively, the “Notes”). In January 2026, our board of directors approved a $2.0 billion increase in the authorization of our previously announced repurchase program from $2.0 billion to $4.0 billion (as modified, the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market (including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act), in privately negotiated transactions, in a tender offer, or by other methods in accordance with the applicable federal and state laws and regulations. The timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other considerations, and will be made at management’s discretion. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of our Class A

common stock or Notes and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

The following table contains information relating to the repurchases of shares of our Class A common stock made by us in the three months ended June 30, 2026.

(1)Average price paid per share includes commissions related to repurchases.

(2)Share counts reported in this table are recognized on a settlement date basis.

The above table excludes shares repurchased to settle employee tax withholding related to the vesting of stock awards. See the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for quantification of all shares repurchased by us during the periods presented.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

The Company’s directors and officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) are only permitted to trade in the Company’s securities pursuant to a prearranged trading plan intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (a “Rule 10b5-1 Plan”). During the three months ended June 30, 2026, a trust affiliated with one of the Company’s non-employee directors adopted a Rule 10b5-1 Plan, which was entered into during an open trading window in accordance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and Trading Plan Policy.

On June 5, 2026, the LAMA Community Trust (the “LAMA Trust”), of which Marc Andreessen, a member of the Company’s board of directors, and his spouse are trustees, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan (the “LAMA Trust Plan”) providing for the sale of up to 574,416 shares of Class A common stock owned by the LAMA Trust, so long as the market price of the Class A common stock is higher than certain minimum threshold prices specified in the LAMA Trust Plan during the period beginning on September 5, 2026 and ending on September 4, 2027, or such earlier date as sale of all shares specified in the LAMA Trust Plan is completed or the occurrence of certain events set forth therein.

The certifications furnished in Exhibits 32.1 and 32.2 hereto are deemed to accompany this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are not deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
