Voyager Digital (TSX: VOYG) appears to be having a rough start to 2022. After announcing last week that the company is the subject of several court orders across multiple US states last week, the firm today announced its preliminary revenue estimates for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 – which show a significant sequential decline.
For the third quarter, which has a period end of March 31, the company is expecting to recognize revenues between US$100 million and US$105 million.
