Coinbase將在人工智慧驅動的重組中裁員14%

By

-- Coinbase Global (COIN) 宣布將裁減全球員工 14%,理由是市場波動導致營運成本上升,以及人工智慧優化了營運。 這家加密貨幣交易所週二向美國證券交易委員會提交的文件顯示,重組計畫將影響約 700 名員工,預計將在第二季基本完成。 Coinbase 執行長 Brian Armstrong 在一份發給員工的備忘錄中表示,公司“資本充足”,收入來源多元化。該備忘錄已在社群媒體平台 X 上分享。 “加密貨幣也即將迎來下一波普及浪潮,穩定幣、預測市場、代幣化等技術正在蓬勃發展。” 然而,Armstrong 也指出,公司業務的季度波動性依然較大。 「雖然我們之前多次成功應對過這種週期性波動,並且最終都變得更加強大,但目前我們正處於市場低迷期,需要調整成本結構,以便我們能夠以更精簡、更快速、更高效的方式走出這段時期,為下一階段的增長做好準備,」他說。 這位執行長還談到了人工智慧在近幾個月如何幫助Coinbase加快營運速度。 「過去一年,我親眼目睹工程師利用人工智慧在幾天內完成過去一個團隊需要幾週才能完成的工作,」他說。 「小型、專注的團隊所能達到的速度已經發生了翻天覆地的變化,而且這種變化還在與日俱增。” Coinbase提交的文件顯示,該公司預計將產生約5,000萬至6,000萬美元的重組費用,主要與員工遣散費和其他離職福利有關,這些費用將在本季度計入大部分。 在週二下午的交易中,該公司股價下跌3.8%,使其今年迄今的跌幅達到約14%。 「人工智慧正在為公司的運作方式帶來深刻的變革,我們正在重塑 Coinbase,以引領這個新時代,」阿姆斯壯表示。 “這是一種全新的工作方式,我們需要在工作的方方面面都充分利用人工智慧。” Coinbase 計劃於週四公佈第一季財務業績。

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Buy Opinion On Shares Of First Quantum Minerals

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We decrease our 12-month target price by CAD5 to CAD40, on an EV/EBITDA of 8.0x our 2027 EBITDA estimate, a discount to FM's three-year average forward EV/EBITDA of 10.6x but close to peers, with an average of 8.3x. We lower our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.33 to $0.53 and 2027 by $0.22 to $1.95. FM faces near-term cost pressures from Middle East tensions, with fuel representing 15% of total costs and potential upward pressure of $0.25/lb on C1 guidance (fuel +$0.20, Kwacha +$0.10, partially offset by gold -$0.05). However, the company's fundamentals remain strong with authorization to process Cobre Panama stockpiles (30-40kt copper expected in 2026), Kansanshi S3 operating 25% above design, and record nickel production at Enterprise. FM strengthened its balance sheet with a $1.5B 10-year bond at 6.375% and extended maturities to 2036. The Taca Taca project (291kt/year copper over first 10 years, 19.3% IRR) provides significant long-term growth optionality once the balance sheet is positioned to support development.
