Robinhood Stock Falls Over 4% After Hours as Crypto Revenue Drops 55% Despite
Robinhood Markets (HOOD) shares fell more than 4% in after-hours trading despite the company reporting record third-quarter revenue of $1.42 billion, as earnings per share came in below analyst expectations and cryptocurrency revenue declined sharply.
According to Coin Bureau, Robinhood's revenue increased 12% from a year earlier, reaching a record $1.42 billion. However, the company reported earnings of $0.51 per share, missing the $0.56 analysts had expected.
The results presented a mixed picture for the trading platform. While overall revenue reached a new high, the earnings shortfall and steep decline in crypto-related income accompanied a drop in the company's share price after the market closed.
Robinhood Crypto Revenue Falls 55%
Cryptocurrency revenue was one of the most significant areas of weakness in the reported figures. Robinhood generated $120 million in crypto revenue, a 55% decline.
The decrease contrasted with the company's record overall revenue and highlighted the different directions of its reported business segments. Although the source did not provide a specific explanation for the crypto revenue decline, the reported figure showed a substantial contraction in income from cryptocurrency-related activity.
The available figures do not establish whether the decline resulted from lower trading activity, changes in cryptocurrency prices, or other factors. Coin Bureau's post highlighted the revenue drop without identifying a specific cause.
Prediction Markets Generate $173 Million
Prediction markets delivered a contrasting result, generating $173 million in revenue, according to Coin Bureau. The figure was more than six times higher than the comparable level cited in the source.
At $173 million, prediction-market revenue exceeded the $120 million reported for cryptocurrency revenue. The comparison places prediction markets ahead of crypto revenue in the figures highlighted by Coin Bureau, even as Robinhood's overall quarterly revenue reached a record.
The source did not provide further details about the composition of prediction-market revenue or the precise period used for the more-than-sixfold comparison. Those figures therefore do not, on their own, establish how much prediction markets contributed to the year-over-year increase in total company revenue.
Record Revenue Fails to Prevent After-Hours Decline
Robinhood's reported results combined a 12% year-over-year increase in revenue with an earnings-per-share miss and a 55% decline in crypto revenue. The company's shares fell more than 4% after hours, according to Coin Bureau.
The figures show that record sales did not coincide with a positive after-hours share-price move. However, the source did not identify the specific reason for the decline, and the reported results alone do not establish what drove the market reaction.
The key figures highlighted in the report were Robinhood's record $1.42 billion in third-quarter revenue, earnings of $0.51 per share against analysts' expectations of $0.56, crypto revenue of $120 million, and prediction-market revenue of $173 million.
