The long-term trajectory looks attractive for Coinbase , even as the company grapples with a "crisis of confidence" amid FTX's implosion, according to Oppenheimer.
"While painful near term, Coinbase can be one of the few long-term survivors in this space, which we think makes it attractive," wrote analyst Owen Lau in a note to clients Monday.
Coinbase shares seesawed before the bell, attempting to build on a 15% jump Monday.
"With COIN trading at only 2.3x 2023E revenue versus 8.0x for comparable high-growth fintech stocks, we believe the stock is trading at a depressed multiple," Lau wrote.
"COIN's near-term trading outlook is challenging, but interest income, consolidation, diversification, staking and crypto adoption continue to provide tailwinds longer-term."
