NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(all amounts in thousands, except share andper share data, or as otherwise noted)

1. Organization and principal activities

Canaan Inc., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands, through wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”), is principally engaged in integrated circuit (the “IC”) design and sale and lease of final mining equipment by integrating its IC products for Bitcoin mining and related components in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), Singapore and other countries and regions.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Basis of presentation
--- ---

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Canaan Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of June 30, 2025, the results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2025, have been made.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, and the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods.

The Company believes that accounting estimation of warrant liability, valuation of convertible preferred shares, pre-delivery shares, derivative assets and liabilities and deferred tax assets, write-down for inventories and prepayments, valuation and recognition of share-based compensation, and impairment of property, equipment and software reflect significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Management bases the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions as discussed elsewhere to the consolidated financial statements that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

10. Long-term loans

On June 12, 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into Master Loan and Pledge Agreements (the “Agreements 1”) with a third party (the “Lender 1”). Pursuant to the Agreements 1, the Lender 1 will provide loans in tranches in USDT (also known as Tether, a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. Dollar) with a term of 18-month and an interest rate of 2.75% per annum. The Agreements 1 also require the Company to transfer 330 Bitcoins to the Lender 1 as collateral, and the loan amount will be 68% of the then-current fair market value (the “Loan-to-Value Ratio”) of the pledged Bitcoins. If the fair market value of Bitcoins fallen to below 70% of the fair market value at the loan receipt date, the Company is required to add Collateral. The repayment of the loan principal may be made in USD, USDT or if mutually agreed upon in writing prior to repayment, any other digital currency.

According to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company will issue 25,000 Preferred Shares (“First Tranche”) to the Buyer on the closing date of the First Tranche (“First Closing Date”).

As of December 31, 2023, all the First Tranche of the Preferred Shares have been converted to Class A ordinary shares of the Company.

The fair value of the Second Tranche (US$68,496), Forward Contract Liabilities (US$18,496) and Pre-delivery Shares (US$236) upon issuance date in aggregate exceeded the net proceeds from the financing (US$49,860) by US$376, which was recognized as the excess of fair value of Series A Convertible Preferred Shares financing for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, 49,000 out of the 50,000 Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Second Tranche were converted to 48,082,902 outstanding ADSs (721,243,530 Class A ordinary shares) at the conversion prices from $0.73 to $1.31, which are the lower of US$1.81 and 92.5% of the lowest daily average market price over 5 days before the conversion.

The Company acknowledged that 1,345,203 ADSs of 2,800,000 ADSs of the Pre-Delivery Shares being returned to the Company would be returned in the form of 20,178,045 Class A ordinary shares, which were transferred from ordinary shares to treasury stocks in September and cancelled in November 2024. The remaining 1,454,797 ADSs were returned to the Company in December 2024. The fair value of the Third Tranche (US$78,272) upon issuance date in aggregate exceeded the net proceeds from the financing (US$49,975) by US$28,297, which was recognized as the excess of fair value of Convertible Preferred Shares financing for the year ended December 31, 2024.
