Frequently Asked Questions

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to formally announce Coinbase's financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, and to furnish the accompanying Shareholder Letter (Exhibit 99.1) which contains the detailed financial information and operational highlights for the period.

Investors can expect more details and discussion regarding the Q1 2024 financial results during the conference call scheduled for May 2, 2024. The Shareholder Letter provides the initial results, and the call will offer further insights and management commentary.

This 8-K filing primarily furnishes the Shareholder Letter, which contains financial results. While it may reference GAAP figures and provides reconciliations to non-GAAP measures, the detailed, audited GAAP financial statements are typically found in Coinbase's subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K.

When information is 'furnished' under Item 2.02, it means it is provided to the SEC for public disclosure but does not carry the same legal liabilities under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as information that is formally 'filed'. This is a common practice for earnings releases and shareholder letters, unless the company specifically chooses to incorporate them by reference into a filed document.
