What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($92.08). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (53/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $32.53 – $419.78 · fair‑value band $55.25 – $92.08 · the $192.70 price screens above the $73.66 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 29, 2026.
Analysis
Coinbase Global Inc (COIN) currently trades at $192.70, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $73.66, implying the stock looks roughly 161.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $199.98 per share, and 5 of the 12 models we run sit above the $192.70 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $20.23, and 7 of the 12 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Coinbase Global Inc generated revenue of $6.3B at a net margin of 12.7%. Revenue declined 30.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $3.5B. Fundamentals as of Aug 29, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $55.25 (bear case) to $92.08 (bull case); at $192.70, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 57% below its 52-week high and 38% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −55% fair-value upside, at −62%, COIN screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $1.84 per share, which is 2.5 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 12 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($199.98) versus Dividend Discount ($20.23). Highest evidence: Residual Income (74).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 59 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 17
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
