(NASDAQ: CAN) ("Canaan" or the "Company"), an innovator in crypto mining, today announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025, reporting robust revenue growth, record-high mining output, and a milestone expansion of its bitcoin treasury. Second Quarter 2025 Operating and Financial Highlights The Company posted record unaudited results for the three months ended June 30, 2025, its strongest performance in the past ten quarters, driven by the increasingly diversified revenue streams, resilient execution, and robust mining deployment. Total revenues reached US$100.2 million, exceeding the Company's previous guidance and representing a 39.5% year-over-year increase, underscoring accelerated growth momentum. Total computing power sold was 6.4 million Terahash per second (TH/s), a 16.5% sequential increase and a 3.0% year-over-year rise, reflecting diversified market penetration despite tariff headwinds. Mining revenue hit an all-time high of US$28.1 million, up 201.6% year-over-year, with 284 bitcoins mined at an average revenue of US$98,866 per bitcoin. Gross profit surged to US$9.3 million, a turnaround from a gross loss of US$19.1 million in the same period last year. Bitcoin treasury expanded to 1,483.5 bitcoins by quarter-end and further to 1,511 bitcoins by July-end 2025, marking a strategic milestone in the Company's long-term accumulation model. Nangeng Zhang, chairman, and chief executive officer of Canaan, commented, "In the second quarter, our team delivered strong results amid evolving macro headwinds and geopolitical pressures. We exceeded expectations with total revenues of US$100.2 million, driven by proactive market expansion and solid execution. Despite increased tariff challenges, we diversified our sales footprint and achieved 6.4 million TH/s in total computing power sold, up 16.5% sequentially. Our mining operations also advanced steadily, reaching 8.15 EH/s in installed capacity across nine global sites while maintaining a competitive power cost of US$0.045/kWh. Enhanced deployment of our A15 series in the U.S. improved fleet efficiency, enabling us to mine 284 bitcoins during the quarter and further driving our bitcoin treasury to a strategic milestone of 1,511 by July-end, marking a new record. "These achievements are underpinned by our unique vertically integrated model, spanning in-house ASIC design and diversified manufacturing, global self-mining operations, and disciplined bitcoin treasury management. This structure lowers our bitcoin acquisition costs, mitigates operational risks, and preserves strategic flexibility throughout market cycles. With localized production now running in the U.S., alongside our facilities in Malaysia and East Asia, we have fortified supply agility and regional resilience, winning recurring orders from top-tier U.S. miners in this quarter, including Cipher Mining Inc. and Cleanspark. Supported by policy tailwinds such as the GENIUS Act, we are well-positioned for sustained growth, committed to advancing the bitcoin ecosystem with innovative computing solutions, expanding our mining footprint, and delivering value to miners and shareholders worldwide." Jin "James" Cheng, chief financial officer of Canaan, stated, "We delivered solid sequential and year-over-year improvement in the second quarter, reflecting our team's focus on execution and disciplined operations. Product sales revenue reached US$71.9 million, supported by higher average selling prices with continued mass delivery of advanced A15 series, and a 16.5% increase in computing power sold. Our mining business posted its best quarterly result on record, generating US$28.1 million in revenue, driven by our expanded hashrate installed and enhanced mining efficiency. These topline gains demonstrate our ability to seize market opportunities despite a complex external environment. "Meanwhile, we made progress toward sustainable growth and enhanced financial health. Our profitability exhibited robust growth both sequentially and year-over-year. Our balance sheet remains flexible and strategically positioned, supported by growing bitcoin assets. Looking ahead, we remain focused on prudent capital allocation, agile capacity deployment, and disciplined treasury management, aiming to drive returns from both mining machine sales and mining operations. We will continue adapting to market changes with rigor while reinforcing long-term financial resilience and strategic readiness." Note 1: Defined as the total number of bitcoins owned by the Company on its Balance Sheet including any bitcoins receivable, excluding bitcoins that the Company has received as customer deposits.

Mining revenue in the second quarter of 2025 was US$28.1 million, compared to US$24.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 and US$9.3 million in the same period of 2024.

Mining costs herein consist of direct production costs of mining operations, including electricity and hosting, as well as depreciation of deployed mining machines. The sequential and year-over-year increases were mainly due to the increase in deployed computing power for the Company's mining operations. The depreciation in this quarter for deployed mining machines was US$10.5 million, compared to US$6.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 and US$4.8 million in the same period of 2024.

Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2025 also included share-based compensation expenses of US$1.4 million. Sales and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were US$4.5 million, compared to US$2.9 million in the first quarter of 2025 and US$1.6 million in the same period of 2024.

Sales and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2025 also included share-based compensation expenses of US$59 thousand. General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were US$16.4 million, compared to US$16.9 million in the first quarter of 2025 and US$14.0 million in the same period of 2024.

Recent Developments Strategic Realignment to Focus on Core Crypto Businesses On June 23, 2025, the Company announced that it had commenced a strategic realignment to sharpen its focus on its core businesses of bitcoin mining machine sales, self-mining operations, and consumer mining products. As part of this initiative, the Company will discontinue its non-core AI semiconductor business unit, which was described in the annual report for the year ended December 31, 2024, as "ASICs for edge computing applications." The process is expected to be completed in the next few months.

In addition, Canaan will effect repurchase transactions in compliance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its insider trading policy. The number of ADSs repurchased and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with Canaan's working capital requirements and general business conditions. The Company's Board and/or its management will review the share repurchase program periodically and may authorize an adjustment of its terms and size as appropriate.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures In evaluating Canaan's business, the Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding income tax (benefit) expenses, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expenses, share-based compensation expenses, impairment on property, equipment and software, change in fair value of financial instruments other than derivatives and excess of fair value of convertible preferred shares. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company's results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. One of the key limitations of using adjusted EBITDA is that it does not reflect all of the items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance.
