<p>Cryptocurrency exchange Huobi, under the guidance of its advisor and Tron Founder Justin Sun, has reported losses over consecutive recent quarters and is now eyeing a break-even point in the current quarter.</p><h2 id="header-0">Three quarters of losses</h2><p>In a<a href="https://twitter.com/justinsuntron/status/1686371685321347073?s&#61;20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> tweet</a> posted by Sun on Tuesday, the Tron Founder revealed that Huobi hadn’t registered a profit from the third quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of this year. While exact loss figures were not disclosed, Sun attributed these financial challenges to excessive spending on marketing, advertising, and employee salaries. Notably, Huobi has since reined in these expenses, positioning itself for a potential return to profitability by the fourth quarter.</p><p>Looking at the overall financial performance of Sun’s crypto entities, Huobi and Tron, the group appears to be on an upward trajectory. Sun’s tweet indicated a combined profit of $85 million, derived from $193 million in revenues and $108 million in expenses.</p><p>Notably, the Q2 profit saw a substantial increase of 183% compared to the $30 million profit in Q1. Sun’s projections suggest that Q3 could see revenue reach $200 million, expenses remain at $100 million, resulting in a projected profit of $100 million for the quarter.</p><h2 id="header-1">Improved financial outlook</h2><p>Sun highlighted on Twitter Huobi’s improved financial outlook, projecting a break-even status for Q3 and a modest profit for Q4 based on conservative estimates. Earlier in the year, Huobi implemented a 20% reduction in its workforce as a response to the cryptocurrency market’s bearish trends.</p><p>Established in 2013, Huobi had maintained consistent profitability until the last few quarters, according to Sun. He clarified that despite reports linking him as the core investor through the M&amp;A fund that acquired a stake in Huobi, he is merely an advisor to the exchange.</p><h2 id="header-2">Exchange business challenges</h2><p>Huobi’s struggles and subsequent efforts to regain financial stability mirror the broader landscape of cryptocurrency exchanges navigating a volatile market. No major exchange has been unaffected by a challenging business and regulatory environment over the past year.</p><p>US exchange Coinbase is in a legal battle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the United States. A<a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/08/02/2023/us-prosecutors-worry-binance-charges-could-cause-run-on-exchange" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> report</a> by Semafor on Wednesday suggests that the US Department of Justice is planning on bringing fraud charges against Binance, who is already fighting an action taken by the SEC. Binance has also been<a href="https://twitter.com/Travis_Kling/status/1684210297546981378" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> forced out</a> of key four important European markets over the course of the past three months.</p><p>Meanwhile, it has been claimed that KuCoin has been executing a<a href="https://medium.com/&#64;coinness.gl/kucoin-dismisses-notion-of-a-layoff-plan-de37dae3bd27" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> layoff plan</a>, something the company itself denies. In March, the company faced an<a href="https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2023/attorney-general-james-continues-crackdown-unregistered-cryptocurrency-platforms" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> action</a> brought by the New York Attorney General on the basis of a failure to register as a securities and commodities broker-dealer.</p><p>Huobi’s difficulties serve as a testament to the challenges and opportunities presented to all of the major international cryptocurrency exchange businesses.</p><p>The company’s recent financial trajectory, marked by consecutive losses, has caught the attention of the industry. Justin Sun remains one of crypto’s most controversial figures, but with his guidance, the exchange will be working towards rebounding and returning to profitability in the coming quarters.</p>
