Rivian climbs after posting better-than-expected Q4 results; sees R2 SUV hitting the market in Q2

EV maker Rivian reported its fourth-quarter and full-year earnings results after markets closed on Thursday. Its shares climbed 13% in after-hours trading.

In the fourth quarter, which coincided with the end of federal EV tax credits in the US, Rivian booked $1.29 billion in revenue, down 26% year over year but above analysts’ expectations of $1.26 billion. The company posted an adjusted loss of $0.54 per share in Q4, compared to the expected loss of $0.68 per share.

Rivian forecast full-year adjusted losses in the range of $1.8 billion to $2.1 billion, compared to the $1.75 billion loss expected by Wall Street.

2026 is set to be a big year for the company, with its upcoming $45,000 R2 SUV planned to begin deliveries in the second quarter. Rivian issued full-year delivery guidance of between 62,000 and 67,000 vehicles, compared to Wall Street’s expectations of 65,700. Analysts polled by FactSet expect 14,700 of those 2026 deliveries to be R2s. Last year, Rivian delivered 42,247 vehicles.

“It’s incredibly exciting to see the early strong reviews of the R2 pre-production builds, and we can’t wait to get them to our customers next quarter,” CEO RJ Scaringe said.

Coinbase posts record stablecoin revenue but falls short of expectations for Q4 sales

Shares of cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase jumped after-hours on Thursday after the company reported record stablecoin revenue, despite Q4 revenue numbers that missed Wall Street expectations. 

The stock was up 3.1% in recent trading.

  • Revenue came in at $1.78 billion vs. the $1.81 billion consensus analyst expectation, per FactSet.

  • Transaction revenue was $982.7 million vs. a $998 million forecast.

  • The company reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.66, compared with $3.37 a year earlier.

  • Stablecoin revenue hit a record $364.1 million, up 61% from the same quarter the previous year.

Earlier Thursday, Coinbase seemingly suffered an outage, saying it was “aware that customers may be unable to buy, sell, transfer on Coinbase.com at this time,” but noting that “your funds are safe.” The company said the issue was resolved just over an hour later.

Coinbase shares — which were added to the S&P 500 last May — have been crushed by the downturn in crypto this year. Through Wednesday’s close, the stock was down by more than 30% in 2026. And that was before the stock caught a double downgrade on Thursday before the report.
