Fourth Quarter 2025 Operating and Financial Highlights

Total revenues surged to US$196.3 million, exceeding the median of the Company's previous guidance range, representing 121.1% year-over-year and 30.4% quarter-over-quarter growth.

Total computing power sold reached 14.6 exahashes per second (EH/s), setting a new quarterly record and representing 60.9% year-over-year growth and 45.7% quarter-over-quarter growth, boosted by large-scale North American orders.

Mining revenue was US$30.4 million, with 300 bitcoins mined at an average revenue of US$101,304 per bitcoin, despite the pullback in network hashprice.

Gross profit was US$14.6 million, compared to the gross loss of US$6.4 million in the same period of last year, reflecting product mix optimization and supply chain resilience.

Cryptocurrency treasury expanded to 1,749.9 BTC and 3,950.54 ETH by the end of the fourth quarter 2025, reaching new historical highs.

Full Year 2025 Operating and Financial Highlights

Total revenues were US$529.7 million, growing 96.7% from US$269.3 million in 2024, reflecting solid execution across hardware sales and mining operations.

Total computing power sold exceeded 36.5 EH/s, up 40.7% year over year, supported by deepening global client partnerships.

Mining revenue jumped to US$113.2 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 157.2% from US$44.0 million in 2024.

Gross profit was US$41.2 million, compared to a gross loss of US$84.3 million in 2024.

Nangeng Zhang, chairman, and chief executive officer of Canaan, commented, "We closed 2025 with strong performance, achieving our highest quarterly revenue in three years despite continued global macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty. Fourth quarter total revenue reached US$196.3 million, exceeding the midpoint of our guidance. Performance was driven by a record 14.6 EH/s of computing power sold, supported by a milestone order from a U.S.-based institutional miner and our team's dedicated execution in meeting stringent delivery timelines for customers. On the mining front, we expanded our installed hashrate to 9.91 EH/s, with 7.65 EH/s in operation during the quarter, while further enhancing fleet efficiency and maintaining competitive all-in power costs. Our team also entered into several pilot initiatives that integrate bitcoin mining with stranded and renewable energy sources to enhance efficiency and sustainability. We mined 300 bitcoins during the quarter, which complemented our disciplined DAT initiatives, strengthening our cryptocurrency treasury to a record of approximately 1,750 BTC and 3,951 ETH by the end of 2025."

"2025 has been a transformative year for Canaan. We further expanded our market presence, particularly in North America, and strengthened our product offerings, while steadily building out our mining operations worldwide. Looking ahead to 2026, we are taking decisive steps to evolve beyond a traditional hardware provider. We view the convergence of computing and energy infrastructure as a compelling long-term opportunity and are aligning our strategy to capture that growth. In the United States, we have built a robust pipeline to secure direct power capacity and are confident in our ability to lock in substantial load by year-end 2026, with the potential to scale toward gigawatt-level capacity. Compute-intensive workloads like HPC and bitcoin mining can share infrastructure and grid resources, unlocking higher capital efficiency and operational flexibility. At the same time, we are intensifying our focus on our product portfolio targeted toward households and small-to-medium-sized businesses. Following strong initial traction in 2025, we are expanding our Avalon Home product line with a focus on reliability and ease of use, while working to develop our channel. As the macro environment remains volatile, we believe our strengths in product innovation, deep operational experience in bitcoin mining, and flexible global execution will enable us to capture the emerging energy-compute paradigm, creating differentiated and sustainable long-term value."

Jin "James" Cheng, chief financial officer of Canaan, stated, "In the fourth quarter, we achieved strong revenue growth despite a challenging operating environment characterized by intensified crypto market volatility. Product sales reached US$164.9 million, an increase of 124.5% year-over-year and 39.1% quarter-over-quarter, primarily due to the timely execution of a landmark order for over 50,000 A15 Pro mining machines, which was fully delivered by early January 2026. Our mining revenue remained resilient at US$30.4 million, aided by our growing operational hashrate. We realized a gross profit of US$14.6 million, with a gross margin of 7.4%, despite negative pressure from volume-based pricing, increased mining costs, and a non-cash inventory write-down and provision for inventory purchase commitments due to declining crypto prices. While we maintained disciplined expense management, our net result reflected several non-cash items, including US$44.3 million in fair value losses related to cryptocurrency price movements and a final impact of US$15.2 million from the change in fair value of preferred shares."

"Our balance sheet remained healthy and aligned with our operational priorities. We ended the year with US$81 million in cash, offering solid liquidity for future operations. While inventory and prepayment levels were higher due to ongoing production schedules, they represent our preparation for continued deliveries to fulfill customer orders. During the quarter, we also unlocked additional liquidity through our DAT operations, while continuing to grow our cryptocurrency treasury balance to a new high. In addition, our capital structure was further strengthened by the full conversion of our preferred shares during the fourth quarter, removing this item from our liabilities and simplifying our capital base. As we enter 2026, we are committed to managing resources prudently and maintaining operational resilience. Drawing on deep industry experience and strategic flexibility, we are well-positioned to navigate near-term market volatility while preparing to capture future growth opportunities."

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.
