Financial Highlights for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 Total revenues were US$5.54 million, representing a decrease of 18% compared to US$6.78 million in 2023 primarily due to revenue decreases across business segments of sales of products, hosting service and mining pool, which was partially offset by 125% revenue increase from mining revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. Gross loss was US$1.01 million, compared to gross profit of US$0.46 million in 2023. Net loss was US$5.89 million, slightly improved from a net loss of US$6.12 million in 2023. Other income increased 62% to from US$1.25 million in 2023 to US$2.02 million in 2024, mainly due to an increase in the fair value of crypto assets for the year ended December 31, 2024. Management Commentary Mr. Arthur Lee, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SAIHEAT, commented, “While 2024 presented notable challenges following the April Bitcoin halving event, we adapted quickly to shifting market dynamics. Our mining revenue showed strong resilience, doubling revenue year-over-year on the back of higher average Bitcoin prices. Looking ahead, we remain focused on enhancing operational efficiency, progressing our sustainable bitcoin currency-mining strategy, and deepening our innovation in associate petroleum gas and nuclear integration. In 2025, we will place a greater emphasis on our technologically leading area - Bitcoin cloud computing power mining. By focusing on this direction, we plan to provide the following three categories of services for customers to establish a connection between humanity and clean energy. The first is Bitcoincurrency mining. We plan to offer an array of services from Bitcoincurrency joint mining to relative asset custody services by providing improved computing power to small and medium-sized eligible investors. The second is Associate Petroleum Gas (APG). We aim to offer associated gas reutilization to energy asset owners, to help the large enterprises in the oil and gas fields meet the demand of creating value from idle energy through energy digitization and monetarization solutions. These technologies contribute to reducing the carbon footprint and provides innovative solutions for energy enterprises. The third is Small Modular Reactor (SMR). We will provide sovereign countries with integrated solutions based on modular nuclear power to assist them in building new generation of digital energy infrastructures. Through computing power bitcoin currency mining, we solve problems such as the lack of stable customers at the initial stage of infrastructure construction or the relatively long cost recovery in investment cycle, thus, accelerating the investment recovery cycle and achieving higher economic benefits.

Audited Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 Revenues Sales of Products: Decreased by 48% from $4.80 million for 2023 to US$2.50 million for 2024, due to fewer customer orders of high-performance crypto asset mining machines and outdoor computing infrastructure container secured during fiscal year 2024. Hosting Service: Declined 86% from $0.37 million year-over-year to US$0.05 million, which was due to machines shutdowns requested by hosting clients since their high power-consumption miners do not deliver profit when block reward halving occurred in April 2024. Mining Pool: Decreased by 78%, from $0.30 million for 2023 to US$0.07 million for 2024, as some hosting customers using our pool chose to shut down miners due to block reward halving events in year 2024. Mining Revenue: Increased by 125% to US$2.92 million, driven by increased average price of bitcoin mined, which was 130% higher than the average price in the prior year. The average daily bitcoin production was 0.13 bitcoin in 2024, compared with 0.12 in the prior year. Cost of Revenues Cost of revenues increased by 4% year-over-year to US$6.55 million, primarily due to expanded self-mining activity and energy consumption. This offset reductions in hardware-related costs for sales and hosting. Gross (Loss)/Profit Gross profit turned into a gross loss of US$1.01 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a gross profit of US$0.46 million in 2023. Gross Margin The gross margin was negative 18% in 2024, compared to a positive gross margin of 7% in the prior year.The decline was primarily driven by higher costs associated with self-mining operations and a shift in revenue mix. Operating Expenses Selling and Marketing Expenses: Decreased 75% to US$0.28 million, reflecting reduced share-based compensation expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, and travel costs. General and Administrative Expenses: Slightly increased by 5% to US$5.97 million, which was mainly driven by a rise in share-based payment expenses to US$3.15 million. Research and Development Expenses: Decreased by 25% to US$0.64 million, due to lower employee-related and incentive expenses. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: No impairment recorded in 2024, compared to US$0.14 million in 2023, reflecting improved BTC market valuations. Other Income Other income was US$2.02 million in 2024, compared to US$1.25 million in 2023, driven primarily by unrealized gains from changes in the fair value of crypto assets. Net loss As a result of the above, SAIHEAT reported a net loss of US$5.89 million, slightly improved from a US$6.12 million net loss in the prior year. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We are providing supplemental financial measures for non-GAAP net income from operations that excludes the impact of share-based compensation expense, loss from disposal of property and equipment, impairment losses on crypto assets, depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets. This supplemental financial measure is not measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and, as a result, this supplemental financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure internally to help understand, manage, and evaluate our business performance and to help make operating decisions. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to material limitations as they are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, measurements prepared in accordance with GAAP. For example, we expect that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from non-GAAP financial measures, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, and consultants. Similarly, we expect that depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets will continue to be a recurring expense over the term of the useful life of the assets. We also will exclude impairment losses on crypto assets from the non-GAAP financial measure, which may occur in future periods as a result of our continued holdings of significant amounts of bitcoin. Our non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read only in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. We rely primarily on such Consolidated Financial Statements to understand, manage, and evaluate our business performance and use the non-GAAP financial measure only supplementally. The following is a reconciliation of our non-GAAP net (loss) income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 respectively, which excludes the impact of (i) share-based compensation expense, (ii) loss from disposal of property and equipment, (iii) depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets (dollars in thousands):   For the year endedDecember 31,   2023  2024 Reconciliation of non-GAAP net (loss) income:      Net (loss) income $(6,120) $(5,886)Share-based Compensation Expense  2,641   3,458 Loss from disposal of property and equipment  402   2 Depreciation and amortization expenses  1,347   1,655 Non-GAAP net (loss) income $(1,730) $(771) About SAIHEAT SAIHEAT (NASQAQ: SAIH) is a global distributed computing power operator.
