• Renewed US$30 million share buyback program; US$2 million repurchased

Negative

• Operating hashrate 6.63 EH/s materially below deployed 10.07 EH/s
• Significant regional efficiency gap: North America 19.3 J/TH vs non‑North America 29.0 J/TH
• Average all-in power cost of US$0.043/kWh may pressure margins if energy prices rise
• Winter Storm Fern required curtailment, indicating weather-driven operational risk

Analysis

The stock moved -6.9% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite operational records would fit prior patterns, as past crypto-tagged releases averaged a -4.43% move and often saw selling even on positive updates. The market may have focused on broader concerns such as prior equity issuance or listing compliance risk rather than incremental gains in BTC holdings or hashrate. Such behavior would underline how sentiment can overshadow operational progress.

Key Terms

hashrate, ETH, kWh, MW, +2 more

6 terms

hashrate technical

"We delivered 83 BTC and expanded our deployed hashrate to over 10 EH/s"

Hashrate is a measure of how quickly a computer network can process and verify transactions, often expressed as the number of calculations it can perform in a second. Think of it like the engine power of a car; the higher the hashrate, the more work the network can do in a given time. For investors, a higher hashrate generally indicates a more secure and robust network, which can influence confidence and the value of related digital assets.

ETH technical

"cryptocurrency reserve reached a record high of 1,778 BTC and 3,951 ETH"

ETH is the native digital currency of the Ethereum blockchain, used to pay for transactions and to run programs on that network. For investors it matters because owning ETH is both a way to access and use the platform (like buying fuel to run an app) and a speculative asset whose price reflects demand for the network, changes to its supply rules, and broader crypto market sentiment.

kWh technical

"Average All-in Power Cost During the Month 3 | US$0.043 /kWh"

A kWh (kilowatt-hour) is a measure of energy equal to running a 1,000-watt appliance for one hour; think of it like a gallon of gasoline but for electricity. Investors care because electricity prices and contracts are quoted in kWh, so it directly affects operating costs, utility revenues, project economics for power plants and batteries, and the value of efficiency or renewable energy investments.

MW technical

"Month-End Installed Power Capacity | 95.7 MW | 157.5 MW | 253.3 MW"

A megawatt (MW) is a unit of electrical power equal to one million watts, used to describe how much energy a power plant, solar farm, wind turbine or industrial facility can produce or consume at a given moment. Investors watch MW figures because they signal the size and revenue potential of energy assets or projects—much like knowing the horsepower of a car tells you how powerful it is—so capacity changes, upgrades or sales can affect future earnings and value.

computing power technical

"Energized Computing Power 4 | Installed Computing Power 5 | Expected Computing Power"

Computing power is the ability of computers or data centers to carry out calculations, run software and handle many tasks at once — think of it as a machine’s horsepower for digital work. For investors, higher computing power can mean a company can run faster analytics, support more users, train advanced AI models, or process transactions more cheaply, which affects costs, revenue potential and competitive advantage.

American depositary shares financial

"buyback of up to US$30 million of its outstanding American depositary shares"

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

Achieved record high cryptocurrency treasury of 1,778 BTC and 3,951 ETH

Deployed global hashrate exceeded 10 EH/s

SINGAPORE, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Canaan Inc. (NASDAQ: CAN) ("Canaan" or the "Company"), an innovator in crypto mining, today released its unaudited bitcoin mining update for the month ending January 31, 2026.

Management Commentary

"Our results for January 2026 demonstrate the resilience and adaptability of our global mining operations," said Nangeng Zhang, chairman and CEO of Canaan. "Despite macroeconomic headwinds and record winter storms across North America, our operational discipline allowed us to increase our bitcoin balance. As part of our joint mining arrangement, our joining mining partners worked closely with us on curtailment to balance power loads during high-demand periods, including in areas affected by Winter Storm Fern. These actions were aimed at maximizing long-term economics and highlight both the agility of our operating model and the inherent flexibility of bitcoin mining."

"We delivered 83 BTC and expanded our deployed hashrate to over 10 EH/s, maintaining an operating hashrate of 6.63 EH/s at month-end. Following the conversion of stablecoin proceeds from the sale of miners into bitcoins, our cryptocurrency reserve reached a record high of 1,778 BTC and 3,951 ETH. In addition, our global average miner efficiency improved slightly to 24.2 J/TH, underscoring our operational consistency."

"Looking ahead, we remain long-term Bitcoin believers. In addition to our core business, we are focused on additional ways to advance energy reuse and continue expanding into the home mining segment, which offers attractive margins with limited capital intensity."
