Moody’s explained the cut on June 8 by saying it was worried about how the SEC action would affect Coinbase’s day-to-day business.Although Moody’s downgraded Coinbase, the exchange was still seen to have a “strong” liquidity position. The credit rating agency was impressed with the company’s $3.4 billion in long-term debt. And $5 billion in cash and equivalents.<h3 id="investors-may-minimize-exposure">Investors May Minimize Exposure</h3>According to the company, Coinbase will continue to “focus on expense management” to offset any future losses in transaction revenue.

But lowered its price objective for COIN shares from $55 to $39.As per a research analyst, the firm’s decision to lower its price target for Coinbase reflects its belief that the company’s already dismal Q2 trading volumes might “persist and intensify” as a consequence of the SEC’s accusations.Due to the uncertainty surrounding the result of the litigation.
