Circle (CRCL) Shares Jump After Q4 Earnings Beat
Circle reported stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter results and saw its stock rise sharply in premarket trading across multiple outlets.
Circle Internet Group reported fourth-quarter earnings that beat analyst estimates, posting earnings per share of $0.43 versus the $0.35 consensus and topping revenue expectations, according to coverage of the company’s results [2][1].
The stock reacted strongly in premarket trading, with various outlets reporting gains ranging from roughly 13% to 21%—MoneyCheck at about 13%, CoinDesk at 15%, CoinGape at 16%, EthNews and Crypto.News noting larger moves, and CryptoBriefing reporting a roughly 21% rise; Crypto.News also noted the share price reached about $73 in intraday trading [3][2][1][5][4][6].
Circle’s results coincided with record USDC adoption—USDC supply hit about $75 billion—and EthNews reported that audited results showed revenue and adjusted EBITDA materially exceeded expectations even as a technical full‑year net loss was recorded [5]. Some coverage noted that material risks for the company remain despite the upbeat quarter [4].
Investors reacted positively to the quarterly beat and strong USDC growth, driving a notable premarket uptick in CRCL shares across multiple reports [5][1].
