The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “plan,” “target,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations, assumptions, and projections based on information available at the time the statements were made. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including, among others: our ability to successfully execute our business and growth strategy and generate future profitability; market acceptance of our products and services; our ability to further penetrate our existing customer base and expand our customer base; our ability to develop new products and services; our ability to expand internationally; failure to obtain applicable regulatory approvals and satisfy other closing conditions in a timely manner or otherwise for any acquisition we make; the success of any acquisitions or investments that we make; the effects of increased competition in our markets; our ability to stay in compliance with applicable laws and regulations; stock price fluctuations; market conditions across the onchain economy, including crypto asset price volatility; the growth and regulatory treatment of our derivatives trading and prediction markets offerings; and general market, political, and economic conditions, including interest rate fluctuations, inflation, changes in tariffs and trade restrictions, instability in the global banking system, economic downturns, and other global events, including regional wars and conflicts and government shutdowns. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Further information on risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from forecasted results is, or will be, included in our filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from time to time, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 filed with the SEC on October 29, 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial performance measure, is useful information to help investors evaluate our operating performance because it: enables investors to compare this measure and component adjustments to similar information provided by peer companies and our past financial performance; provides additional company-specific adjustments for certain items that may be included in income from operations but that we do not consider to be normal, recurring, operating expenses (or income) necessary to operate our business given our operations, revenue generating activities, business strategy, industry, and regulatory environment; and provides investors with visibility to a measure management uses to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. For example: • We believe it is useful to exclude certain non-cash expenses, such as depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, from Adjusted EBITDA because the amounts of such expenses can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. • We believe it is useful to exclude certain items that we do not consider to be normal, recurring, cash operating expenses and therefore, not reflective of our ongoing business operations. For example, we exclude: (i) other (income) expense, net, as the income and expenses recognized in this line item are not part of our core operating activities and are considered non-operating activities under GAAP, (ii) gains and losses on crypto assets held for investment because such investments are considered primarily long-term holdings, (iii) losses, net of recoveries, directly related to the data theft incident announced on the Current Report on Form 8-K we filed with the SEC on May 15, 2025 (the “Data Theft Incident”), including voluntary customer reimbursements, direct legal costs, and reward payments, if any, in connection with the threat actor’s arrest and conviction, (iv) costs of restructuring, as these costs are associated with discrete organizational changes and are not reflective of our core, ongoing business operations, (v) non-recurring accrued legal contingencies, settlements, and related costs, which reduces cash available to us, and (vi) impairment on crypto assets still held, net, which represents impairment on crypto assets still held and is a non-cash expense, prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-08. We do not plan on engaging in regular trading of crypto assets, and, as an operating company, our investing activities in crypto are not part of our revenue generating activities, which are primarily based on transactions on our platform and the sales of subscriptions and services. • We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, and provision for (benefit from) income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the method by which assets were acquired. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that Adjusted Net Income (Loss), a non-GAAP financial performance measure, provides useful information to help investors evaluate our operating performance. We believe it is useful to exclude tax- effected gains and losses on crypto assets held for investment from Adjusted Net Income (Loss) because (i) such investments are considered primarily long-term holdings, (ii) we do not plan on engaging in regular trading of crypto assets, and, (iii) as an operating company, our investing activities in crypto are not part of our revenue generating activities, which are based on transactions on our platform and the sales of subscriptions and services. Additionally, we believe it is useful to exclude tax-effected gains and losses on our marketable and strategic investments from Adjusted Net Income (Loss) because such investments are not part of our core operating activities and are considered non-operating activities under GAAP. Adjusted Expenses Adjusted Expenses is defined as the sum of technology and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, less amortization of acquired intangible assets. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to help investors evaluate our results of operations excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets, which we do not consider to be normal, recurring, cash operating expenses and which may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. Limitations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures We believe that non-GAAP financial measures may be helpful to investors for the reasons noted above. However, non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our disclosure of non-GAAP financial measures as a tool for comparison. Adjusted EBITDA There are a number of limitations related to Adjusted EBITDA rather than net (loss) income, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent of Adjusted EBITDA. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA excludes: • provision for (benefit from) income taxes; • interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, which reduces cash available to us; • depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future; • stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; • losses directly related to the Data Theft Incident, net of recoveries; • net gains or losses on our crypto assets held for investment; • the impact of the restructuring, which is not related to normal operations but impacted our results in 2023 and 2026; • non-recurring accrued legal contingencies, settlements, and related costs, which reduces cash available to us; • impairment on crypto assets still held, net, which represents impairment on crypto assets still held and is a non-cash expense, prior to the adoption of ASU 2023-08; and • other (income) expense, net, which represents net gains or losses on investments and other financial instruments, and other non-operating income and expense activity. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) There are limitations related to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) rather than net income, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent, including that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) excludes the tax-effected impact of our crypto investment gains/losses and of our marketable and strategic investments gains or losses. Adjusted Expenses There are limitations related to Adjusted Expenses rather than the sum of technology and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, including that it excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets, which although non-cash, is an expense related to acquisitions of businesses, which have been and may be significant in the future. Additional Information For more information, including reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents, please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results tables in this presentation. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measure and the reconciliations, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. Q3’26 EARNINGS 40
Definitions 41 Q3’26 EARNINGS Key Metrics Key metrics are used to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, and make strategic decisions, which include net revenue, net income, and Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, the company uses MTUs and AOP as key metrics, that are defined below. Monthly Transacting Users: We define a Monthly Transacting User (“MTU”) as a consumer who actively or passively transacts in one or more products on our platform at least once during the rolling 28- day period ending on the date of measurement. MTUs engage in transactions that generate transaction revenue or subscription and services revenue. Revenue-generating transactions include active transactions, such as buying or selling crypto assets or passive transactions such as earning staking rewards and USDC rewards. MTUs also engage in transactions that are non-revenue generating, such as consumers sending and receiving crypto assets between wallets and off-platform accounts on a non-expedited basis. MTUs may overstate the number of unique consumers due to differences in product architecture or user behavior. Assets on Platform: We define Assets on Platform (“AOP”) as the total United States (“U.S.”) dollar equivalent value of crypto assets and payment stablecoins held or managed on behalf of customers in digital wallets on our platform, including our custody services but excluding assets for which the customer holds full or partial keys, calculated based on the market price on the date of measurement. AOP demonstrates the scale of balances held across our suite of products and services, the trust customers place in us to securely store their assets, and the underlying growth of the onchain economy. AOP also represents a monetization opportunity through our products and services, including from trading and the adoption and use of payment stablecoins, staking, custody, and institutional financing, when customers use these assets to engage with these products and services. Other Metrics Coinbase Total Trading Volume: Sum of Crypto Spot Trading Volume, Derivatives Trading Volume, and Stablecoin Volume. Crypto Spot Trading Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of crypto spot matched trades (excluding Stablecoin Trading Volume) transacted between a buyer and seller through our platform, plus half of the value of trades that we routed off our platform for fulfillment, during the period of measurement. Previously disclosed Trading Volume metric is equivalent to our Crypto Spot Trading Volume plus Stablecoin Trading Volume. Stablecoin Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of Stablecoin Trading Volume, plus Stablecoin Conversions. Stablecoin Trading Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of Fiat-Stablecoin and Stablecoin-Stablecoin matched trades transacted between a buyer and seller through our platform, plus half of the value of trades that we routed off our platform for fulfillment, during the period of measurement. Stablecoin Conversions: Primary mint/burn activity from stablecoin transactions routed outside of an exchange order book through our platform during the period of measurement. These represent primary mints/ burns Coinbase facilitates directly with the end customer, not the primary mints/burns with the stablecoin issuer. Derivatives Trading Volume: Sum of Crypto Derivatives Trading Volume and Other Derivatives Trading Volume. Crypto Derivatives Trading Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of the notional amount of crypto derivatives matched trades transacted between a buyer and seller through our platform during the period of measurement. Note this was previously referred to as “Derivatives Trading Volume” in Q1'26. Other Derivatives Trading Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of the notional amount of non-crypto derivatives matched trades transacted between a buyer and seller through our platform during the period of measurement. Other Derivatives Trading Volume is not included in Coinbase Crypto Trading Volume Market Share. Crypto Asset Volatility: Our internal measure of crypto asset volatility in the market relative to prior periods. The volatility is based on intraday returns of a volume-weighted basket of all assets listed on our platform. These returns are used to compute the basket’s intraday volatility which is then scaled to a daily window. These daily volatility values are then averaged over the applicable time period as needed. Coinbase Total Crypto Trading Volume: Crypto Spot Trading Volume, Crypto Derivatives Trading Volume, and Stablecoin Volume. Equivalent to Total Trading Volume excluding Other Derivatives Trading Volume. Total Market Crypto Trading Volume: Total U.S. dollar equivalent value of all matched crypto spot, stablecoin, and crypto derivative trading volumes across exchanges defined in our proprietary competitor set, plus Stablecoin Conversions during the period of measurement, based on data obtained from CoinDesk Data, CoinMetrics, Dune, and Tardis. Total Market Crypto Trading Volume may exclude stablecoin conversions not captured in publicly reported exchange volumes, which may affect comparability across venues.
