Oh, darling, grab your monocle and fan yourself-Circle (CRCL) has just dropped a financial statement that’s hotter than a Bridget Jones diary entry. 🌡️✨ In their Q3 performance report, the stablecoin über-giant has not only smashed Wall Street’s expectations but also casually teased a native token launch. Because, why not? 💅
Circle’s Financial Disclosures: More Drama Than a Rom-Com 🎭
According to their Wednesday reveal (yes, hump day just got spicier), Circle’s Reserve Income skyrocketed to $711 million-a 60% year-over-year jump. 🤑 And what’s behind this financial fireworks display? A 97% surge in the average USDC in circulation, of course. Because who needs a side hustle when your stablecoin is doing the heavy lifting? 💪
But wait, there’s more! “Other revenue” (aka the “miscellaneous magic money pot”) climbed to $29 million, up $28 million from last year. Subscription fees, transaction revenue-it’s all raining dollars over at Circle HQ. ☔💸
Now, let’s talk expenses. Total costs hit $448 million, a 74% increase. Apparently, distributing USDC is the new avocado toast-expensive but necessary. 🥑 And operating expenses? They soared to $211 million, thanks to $59 million in stock-based compensation. Someone’s been shopping at the executive bonus boutique. 🛍️
Net income? A cool $214 million, up 202% year-over-year. And let’s not forget the $61 million income tax benefit-because who doesn’t love a good tax loophole? 🕳️ Adjusted EBITDA hit $166 million, a 78% increase. Circle’s business model is basically a financial flex. 💪✨
Arc Network: The New Kid on the Blockchain 🌉
Remember when Circle announced Arc earlier this year? It’s their shiny new Layer-1 blockchain, tailor-made for stablecoin transactions. Cross-border settlements, merchant payments, DeFi integrations-Arc is the Swiss Army knife of blockchains. 🇨🇭
And now, the plot thickens: Circle’s considering launching a native token on Arc. Because what’s a blockchain without its own token? It’s like a party without canapés-just not done. 🎉🍸
Jeremy Allaire, Circle’s CEO (and presumably the life of every fintech party), gushed:
“We’re building the Economic OS for the internet… With growing circulation and partnerships, we’re basically the Beyoncé of fintech.” 🎤✨
Meanwhile, CRCL stock is trading at $91.57, down 7% from Monday. But hey, even Bridget Jones had bad Mondays. It’s all part of the rollercoaster, darling. 🎢
