DALLAS, Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) (“Cango” or the “Company”), a leading Bitcoin miner leveraging its global operations to develop an integrated energy and AI compute platform, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Second Quarter of 2026 Financial and Operational Highlights
Financial Performance: Even as the broader mining industry weighed on revenue, the Company continued to advance its diversification strategy through EcoHash’s commercial progress and disciplined cost management. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company generated total revenue of US$50.8 million, primarily driven by US$47.4 million from its Bitcoin mining business. The Company reported a net loss of US$81.6 million, primarily driven by non-cash impairment and disposal losses on the mining machines. As of the end of the period, the Company held 1,056 Bitcoins as digital asset reserves, with long-term debt of US$31.2 million, reflecting an improved balance sheet structure.Mining Operations and Costs: To reinforce its disciplined cost management, the Company continued to actively right-size its mining operations, disposing of machines with lower marginal efficiency and partially executing a leasing model. Total operating hashrate reached 27.58 EH/s, comprising 19.84 EH/s of self-mining capacity and 7.74 EH/s of leased hashrate capacity as of June 30, 2026. During the quarter, the Company mined 656 Bitcoins. The improved fleet mix and disciplined execution drove an approximately 5% sequential reduction in average cash cost per Bitcoin, which declined to US$73,313. The Company also started to selectively execute a hedging strategy to mitigate the impact of price volatility on operations.
Mr. Paul Yu, Chief Executive Officer of Cango, said, “In our Bitcoin mining business, we continue to focus on unit economics rather than scale. At the same time, we continued to deliver on our AI modular build at our LN mining site. The Georgia site completed conversion in early July and the infrastructure is now capable of supporting up to 3 megawatts, with scope for future expansion. Container units have been delivered and installed on site, and GPU hardware has been procured and is arriving in staged batches to support a phased ramp-up. In the future, we intend to pursue two business models. The first is bare-metal GPU hosting, using our infrastructure to offer a standardized deployment environment. The second is colocation, intended to enhance overall infrastructure utilization. Our Georgia site is in the process of onboarding customers, with revenue expected to be recognized in the third quarter. To support customers who require proximity-based deployment, we have begun to operate test nodes in Texas and on the West Coast as part of our phased ramp-up. Looking ahead, we continue to evaluate potential new sites and the possibility of self-build facilities.”
Mr. Simon Tang, Chief Financial Officer of Cango, stated, “During the quarter, we recorded a net loss of US$81.6 million, mainly driven by non-cash impairment and disposal losses on our mining machines. During the quarter, we also launched a Bitcoin hedging program designed to manage our exposure to Bitcoin price volatility and enhance the predictability of operating cash flows. We intend to use hedging strictly as a risk management tool, not for speculative purposes. Related short-term positions are reflected on our balance sheet and will be adjusted as we continue to execute this program in a disciplined manner.”
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results from Continuing Operations
REVENUES
During the quarter, total revenues were US$50.8 million, including US$47.4 million from Bitcoin mining and US$3.4 million from other revenues. Compared with the first quarter of 2026, total revenue decreased approximately 50%, primarily reflecting the Company’s proactive reduction of operating hashrate as it phased out older, less efficient S19 series mining machines and transitioned some capacity to a hosted leasing model. While this strategic adjustment temporarily impacted top-line revenue, it resulted in lower operating costs and an improved overall cash flow profile.
OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES
During the quarter, total operating costs and expenses were US$131.4 million. These costs were primarily associated with the Company’s Bitcoin mining business and the recognition of impairment loss on mining machines, and included the loss from changes in fair value of crypto assets.
Cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation shown below) was US$50.7 million, down from US$99.6 million in the first quarter of 2026. This was driven by lower electricity and hosting expenses following the hashrate reduction.Depreciation was US$16.9 million, down from US$29.4 million in the first quarter of 2026.General and administrative expenses, including related-party fees, totaled US$8.4 million.Impairment loss from mining machines was US$42.9 million.Loss on disposal of mining machines was US$8.5 million.Loss from changes in fair value of crypto assets was US$4.1 million, compared to a US$151.8 million loss from changes in fair value of crypto assets in the first quarter of 2026. This change is primarily driven by the stabilization and modest recovery in Bitcoin market prices during the quarter and the initial impact of our newly launched Bitcoin hedging program.
LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
Loss from operations in the second quarter of 2026 was US$80.6 million, compared with an operating loss of US$254.4 million in the first quarter of 2026.
NET LOSS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS
Net loss from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2026 was US$81.6 million, compared with a net loss of US$261.1 million in the first quarter of 2026. The net loss was mainly driven by non-cash impairment and disposal losses.
ADJUSTED EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2026 was a loss of US$10.7 million, which included a US$4.1 million loss from changes in fair value of crypto assets, compared with a loss of US$154.1 million in the first quarter of 2026.
BALANCE SHEET
As of June 30, 2026, the Company held:
Cash and cash equivalents of US$10.1 million, compared with US$7.2 million as of March 31, 2026.1,056 BTC in treasury holdings.Mining machines with a net value of US$58.7 million.Long-term debts (related party) of US$31.2 million, compared with US$30.6 million as of March 31, 2026.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure
As part of our review of business performance, we present adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measure to help assess our core operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, impairment, results from discontinued operations and further excludes share-based compensation expenses and other non-operating income and expenses. We believe adjusted EBITDA can be an important financial measure because it allows management, investors, and our board of directors to evaluate and compare our operating results, including our return on capital and operating efficiency from period-to-period by making such adjustments.
While adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined under U.S. GAAP, management uses it to evaluate performance, make strategic decisions, and set operating plans. Management believes it also helps investors gain a clearer understanding of our underlying performance by excluding certain costs and expenses that management believes are not indicative of our core operating results. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results or guidance prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
Reconciliations of Cango’s non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
