Canaan Inc. Reports Unaudited Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

 

BEIJING, November 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Canaan Inc. (NASDAQ: CAN) (“Canaan” or the “Company”), a leading high-performance computing solutions provider, today announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

 

Third Quarter 2022 Operating and Financial Highlights

 

Total computing power sold was 3.5 million Thash/s, representing a decrease of 37.1% from 5.5 million Thash/s in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 48.5% from 6.7 million Thash/s in the same period of 2021.

 

Revenues were RMB978.2 million (US$137.5 million), representing a decrease of 40.8% from RMB1,652.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 25.8% from RMB1,317.6 million in the same period of 2021.

 

Gross profit was RMB234.2 million (US$32.9 million), representing a decrease of 74.8% from RMB929.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 68.4% from RMB741.7 million in the same period of 2021.

 

Net income was RMB61.1 million (US$8.6 million), representing a decrease of 90.0% from RMB608.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 88.1% from RMB512.5 million in the same period of 2021.

 

Non-GAAP adjusted net income was RMB166.3 million (US$23.4 million), representing a decrease of 75.8% from RMB688.2 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 71.7% from RMB587.5 million in the same period of 2021.

 

Mr. Nangeng Zhang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canaan, commented, “The bitcoin mining market deteriorated during the third quarter, as the bitcoin price fluctuated and further dipped to around sixteen thousand dollars recently. The negative market dynamics have significantly hindered bitcoin miners’ revenues and cash flows. As miners are forced to cut their demand for computing power, we had to adjust down our selling price in response. As a result of contract sales that we secured from previous quarters and the delivery of these orders, our topline performance in the third quarter was within our expectations, with total computing power sold of 3.5 million Thash/s. In late October, we officially released our new mining machine series, AvalonMade 13. Powered by advanced ASIC technology on the next-generation process node, the new series product achieves prominently accelerated computing power and escalated power efficiency. The launch of the new generation product reaffirms our confidence in the fundamental value of the bitcoin ecosystem and reflects our constant efforts in the research and development of supercomputing technology. In fact, as part of our ongoing effort to strengthen our research and development capabilities, we are expanding our Singapore headquarters with promising local research and development talents to help support our business on a global scale. In addition, we have expanded our mining business by tapping into the U.S. to optimize the allocation of our mining machines. Amidst the bearish market, we continue to grow the scale of our mining operation. With increased computing power online for mining, we generated mining revenue of RMB 62 million for the quarter.”

“Looking forward, we face a very tough industry period as the bitcoin price is sinking to lows the market has not seen in two years. Our priority is to conserve our cash, minimize our expenses, and endure this market downturn. Without any interest-bearing debt, we will also remain prudent as we invest in key strategic areas such as research and development and wafer production capacity on advanced nodes. We believe these efforts will position us to expand our market share and capture the opportunities that are set to emerge when the market recovers,” Mr. Zhang concluded.

 

Mr. James Jin Cheng, Chief Financial Officer of Canaan, stated, “We experienced unprecedented pressure due to the weakened market demand in the third quarter, resulting in a decline in our topline performance. As miners became increasingly conservative with their computing power deployment and purchases, we had to realign the selling price of our mining machines. As a result, we incurred a considerable amount of inventory write-down in the third quarter, which, in conjunction with lowered selling price, further weighted on our gross margin. With bitcoin’s downward trajectory, rising energy prices, and miners under increasing cash pressure, market conditions are expected to keep deteriorating in the following two quarters. In order to persist through the most challenging time of the industry and prepare for capturing more opportunities when the market recovers, we are tightening cash management to streamline our expenses and preserve cash for production capacity. These are difficult decisions to make but sustaining our cash inflows is imperative in the current environment. We have been through multiple market cycles and endured countless challenges in the past. Now, with our focus on securing our cash flow and preserving our cash position, we believe we will emerge from the recent headwinds too.”

 

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

 

Revenues in the third quarter of 2022 were RMB978.2 million (US$137.5 million), representing a decrease of 40.8% from RMB1,652.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 25.8% from RMB1,317.6 million in the same period of 2021.

 

Products revenue in the third quarter of 2022 was RMB916.0 million (US$128.8 million), representing a decrease of 42.8% from RMB1,600.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 30.2% from RMB1,312.0 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2022 was mainly due to the decrease in total computing power sold and the lower selling price. The decrease compared to the third quarter of 2021 was mainly due to the decrease in total computing power sold. In the product revenue segment, AI revenue increased from RMB1.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 to RMB2.4 million (US$0.3 million) in the third quarter of 2022.

 

Mining revenue in the third quarter of 2022 was RMB62.0 million (US$8.7 million), representing an increase of 19.0% from RMB52.1 million in the second quarter of 2022 and an increase of 1,002.7% from RMB5.6 million in the same period of 2021. The increases in mining revenue over the second quarter of 2022 and the third quarter of 2021 were mainly attributable to the increased computing power deployed for mining and improved electricity supply of mining machines.

 

Cost of revenues in the third quarter of 2022 was RMB744.0 million (US$104.6 million), representing an increase of 2.9% from RMB722.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 and an increase of 29.2% from RMB575.9 million in the same period of 2021. The sequential and year-over-year increases in cost of revenues were mainly due to RMB221.1 million of inventories write-down recorded in the third quarter of 2022.

The sequential and year-over-year increases were primarily attributable to increased staff costs in technology-related departments, partially offset by decreased share-based expenses. Research and development expenses in the third quarter of 2022 also included share-based compensation expenses of RMB14.5 million (US$2.0 million).

 

Sales and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2022 were RMB14.2 million (US$2.0 million), representing a decrease of 32.5% from RMB21.1 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 62.1% from RMB37.6 million in the same period of 2021. The sequential and the year-over-year decreases were mainly due to decreased staff costs, partially offset by increased share-based expenses.

General and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2022 were RMB142.7 million (US$20.1 million), representing a decrease of 1.9% from RMB145.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 3.6% from RMB148.1 million in the same period of 2021. The sequential decrease was mainly due to the decrease in professional service fees. The year-over-year decrease was mainly due to decreased share-based compensation expenses.

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.

Use of Non--GAAP Financial Measures

 

In evaluating Canaan’s business, the Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted net income, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses and change in fair value of warrant liability. 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 income, 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 net income is that it does not reflect all of the items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation and change in fair value of warrant liability have been and may continue to be incurred in Canaan’s business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income. 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.
