Insights

Canaan's Q4 2024 financial results demonstrate significant top-line growth with total revenue reaching $88.8 million, exceeding guidance and increasing 80.9% year-over-year. This growth was primarily driven by record-breaking computing power sold of 9.1 million TH/s, up 65.9% YoY, reflecting strong demand for their A15 series.

The company's mining segment has emerged as a substantial secondary revenue stream, generating $15.3 million in Q4 (up 312.5% YoY) by mining 186 Bitcoins. Their bitcoin holdings reached 1,292.5 by year-end, strengthening their balance sheet amid rising cryptocurrency prices.

Despite improved operational metrics, Canaan still reported a net loss of $92.9 million for Q4 and $249.8 million for the full year. However, these represent narrowing losses of 33.2% and 39.7% respectively. Q4's results were significantly impacted by an $85.3 million income tax expense related to valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.

Notably, Canaan achieved positive non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $19.3 million in Q4, a substantial improvement from the $69.4 million loss in Q4 2023, suggesting progress toward sustainable profitability.

Nangeng Zhang, chairman, and chief executive officer of Canaan, commented, "We closed out 2024 on a strong note, delivering robust results in the fourth quarter that exceeded our guidance, with total revenue reaching US$88.8 million. This outstanding top-line performance was primarily driven by the large-scale delivery of our latest A15 series, which contributed to a record-breaking 9.1 million TH/s in total computing power sold. Simultaneously, our mining operations capitalized on the favorable bitcoin price environment in Q4, achieving a remarkable 186 bitcoins mined and generating US$15.3 million in mining revenue, marking a sequential increase of 70.7%. Recently, we further expanded 4.7EH/s for our mining operations in North America through two new projects in Pennsylvania and Texas.

"Looking back on the past year, we remained steadfast in our commitment to delivering high-quality, customized mining solutions, such as our high-performance A15 series and the dual-function Avalon Home Series, catering to a diverse global customer base. In key markets like North America, we strengthened our local presence and established strategic partnerships with leading publicly listed mining companies, enhancing our brand recognition and market share. Despite navigating complex regulatory landscapes and shifting market conditions, we made significant progress in expanding our mining hash rate toward our goal of 10EH/s in North America and 15EH/s globally by mid-2025. Meanwhile, we continued to advance our global strategy across research and development, supply chains, production, and logistics to adapt to the evolving compliance environment. With unwavering confidence in Bitcoin's long-term potential, we remain dedicated to innovation, operational excellence, and cementing our role as a key player in the Bitcoin ecosystem."

Jin "James" Cheng, chief financial officer of Canaan, stated, "We achieved excellent results in Q4, with total revenue significantly surpassing our guidance. This exceptional performance was driven by the ramp-up in A15 series bulk deliveries, leading to products revenue of US$73.5 million, a 63.6% year-over-year increase. Our mining business, which serves as our second growth engine, generated US$15.3 million in revenue, up 312.5% year-over-year and 70.7% quarter-over-quarter, while maintaining a highly competitive all-in power cost. This enabled us to accelerate our bitcoin accumulation through mining by leveraging bitcoin price tailwinds in the fourth quarter. As a result, our owned cryptocurrency reached 1,292.5 bitcoins by year-end, reinforcing our financial position. Additionally, due to strong top-line growth and cost optimization, we significantly narrowed our gross loss to US$6.4 million. Although certain non-cash items hit our bottom line, our net loss of US$92.9 million narrowed 33.2% year-over-year, and we achieved EBITDA breakeven and a gain of US$19.3 million in adjusted EBITDA for the quarter.

"The large-scale production and delivery of the A15 series contributed to our cash inflows and optimized our inventory structure as the model became our primary inventory component. As bitcoin prices climbed in Q4, generating fair value gains, our balance sheet was further strengthened, underscoring the advantages of our mining business and our HODL strategy. Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing advanced product deliveries, expanding our mining hash rate, and capitalizing on the anticipated market momentum to enhance our market presence."

Recent Developments

Expanded Mining Footprint in North America

On March 26, 2025, the Company announced that its wholly-owned subsidiaries have signed agreements with two new partners for mining operations at the partners' facilities in Pennsylvania and Texas.

The Company entered into a three-year master colocation agreement with Mawson Hosting LLC, an affiliate of Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MIGI), for joint mining operations at its facility in Midland, Pennsylvania. This expansion in Pennsylvania, together with another recently executed 24-month equipment hosting agreement for bitcoin mining at a facility in Edna, Texas, is expected to add around 4.7 EH/s of computing power to the Company's mining operations in North America. The majority of the projects' hashrate is expected to be gradually installed by the second quarter of 2025.

New Series A-1 Preferred Shares Financing

On March 6, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor (the "Buyer"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Buyer up to 200,000 Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Shares (the "Series A-1 Preferred Shares") at the price of US$1,000.00 for each Series A-1 Preferred Share.

On March 10, 2025, the Company closed the first tranche of the Series A-1 Preferred Shares financing (the "First Tranche Preferred Shares Closing"), raising total net proceeds of US$99.7 million. Pursuant to the First Tranche Preferred Shares Closing, the Company issued 100,000 Series A-1 Preferred Shares in total at the price of US$1,000.00 per Series A-1 Preferred Share and caused The Bank of New York Mellon to deliver 7,000,000 ADSs as pre-delivery shares (the "Pre-delivery Shares"), each representing fifteen Class A ordinary shares of the Company, at the price of US$0.00000075 for each ADS.

The net proceeds from the financing will be used to fund activities necessary to support the Company's growth, including research and development, expansion of production scale, manufacturing or investing in digital mining sites and equipment for deployment in North America and sales globally, including any acquisition or disposition of assets from or between the Company's subsidiaries, and other general corporate purposes.

As of the date of the Company's earnings release for the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company has 5,526,522,198 Class A ordinary shares, 314,624,444 Class B ordinary shares, 50,000 Series A Preferred Shares and 92,250 Series A-1 Preferred Shares issued and outstanding. The increase in the outstanding Class A ordinary shares compared to the end of 2024 was due to the conversion from part of convertible preferred shares to Class A ordinary shares by the Buyer and the issuance of the Pre-delivery Shares.

Secured A15XP Order from New United States Customer

On January 6, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a new, strategic United States customer for its Avalon A15XP miners.

According to the purchase agreement, Canaan U.S. Inc. will provide the customer with 2,800 air-cooled Avalon A15XP miners that will be added to its large mining fleet.  The miners, with a benchmark Hash performance of 207 TH/s, are scheduled to be delivered in the first quarter of 2025.

The At-the-Market ("ATM") Offering

On December 23, 2024, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the "ATM Agreement") with Macquarie Capital Limited ("Macquarie Capital"), Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. ("KBW"), China Renaissance Securities (Hong Kong) Limited, Compass Point Research & Trading, LLC, Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, Northland Securities, Inc., Rosenblatt Securities Inc., The Benchmark Company, LLC, and B. Riley Securities Inc. ("B. Riley") as sales agents (the "sales agents").

From December 23, 2024, to March 26, 2025, the date of the Company's earnings release for the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company utilized the ATM for fundraising and sold 21,088,579 ADSs with net proceeds of approximately US$42.5 million at an average price of US$2.08 per ADS. With the successful settlement of the First Tranche Preferred Shares Closing, the Company did not utilize the ATM after February 19, 2025.

The Company expects the ATM program to be a flexible mechanism for the Company to access public capital markets. The timing and extent of the use of the ATM program will be at the discretion of the Company, provided that the Company has satisfied certain obligations set forth in the ATM agreements and the ATM facility is duly established.

Secured Term Loans

In January 2025, the Company pledged 300 Bitcoins for secured term loans with an aggregate carrying value of US$20.7 million for 18 months. The secured term loans enable additional liquidity for the production expansion and operations of the Company.

Business Outlook

For fiscal year 2025, the Company maintains its guidance, expecting total revenues to be in the range of US$900 million to US$1.1 billion. For the first quarter of 2025, the Company expects total revenues to be approximately US$75 million. For the second quarter of 2025, the Company expects total revenues to be in the range of US$120 million and US$150 million. This forecast reflects the Company's current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "future," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates" and similar statements. Among other things, the business outlook and quotations from management in this announcement, as well as Canaan Inc.'s strategic and operational plans, contain forward-looking statements. Canaan Inc. may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its periodic reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Forms 20-F and 6-K, in its annual report to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers, directors or employees to third parties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Canaan Inc.'s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: the Company's goals and strategies; the Company's future business development, financial condition and results of operations; the expected growth of the bitcoin industry and the price of bitcoin; the Company's expectations regarding demand for and market acceptance of its products, especially its bitcoin mining machines; the Company's expectations regarding maintaining and strengthening its relationships with production partners and customers; the Company's investment plans and strategies, fluctuations in the Company's quarterly operating results; competition in its industry; and relevant government policies and regulations relating to the Company and cryptocurrency.

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 expenses (benefit), interest income, depreciation and amortization expenses, share-based compensation expenses, impairment on property, equipment and software, change in fair value of financial instruments 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.
