The mining equipment manufacturer Canaan secured<\/a> $50 million through the issuance and sale of convertible preferred shares.<\/p>\n

According to a report to the SEC<\/span>, the firm reached an agreement with an unnamed institutional investor in November 2023. The funding was received in two equal tranches in December and January.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe company intends to use the proceeds from the sale of securities for research and development, production scale expansion, and other general corporate purposes,\u201d Canaan stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In September 2023, the company introduced a next-generation bitcoin miner with immersion cooling, the A1466I. This device was Canaan’s first to achieve an energy efficiency of less than 20 J\/TH, bringing the firm closer to market leaders Bitmain and MicroBT in this regard.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Canaan began its own cryptocurrency mining operations by launching a facility in Kazakhstan, following the opening of its first service center outside China in the country.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, the company expanded its mining business to the United States.<\/p>\n

In August 2023, Canaan temporarily halted mining operations in Kazakhstan following the implementation of mandatory licensing requirements. The company clarified that this affected equipment with a hash rate of 2 EH\/s, approximately half of the total capacity.<\/p>\n

In mid-November, Canaan obtained a license to conduct cryptocurrency mining activities in the Central Asian country.<\/p>\n

In its financial report<\/a> for the third quarter, the firm reported a 79.5% decline in mining revenue compared to the previous period, down to $3.3 million. Equipment sales in terms of capacity reached 3.8 EH\/s, increasing by 38.7% over the quarter.<\/p>\n

With total revenue at $33.3 million, Canaan’s net loss for the period amounted to $80.1 million.<\/p>\n

Following the disclosure of the secured funding, the company’s stock price rose by 10% from the opening price to $1.6.<\/p>\n

In November 2019, Canaan became the first mining equipment manufacturer to go public. During its IPO<\/span> on Nasdaq, the company raised $90 million by issuing 10 million depositary receipts at $9 each.<\/p>\n

As reported by CoinShares<\/a> experts, following the upcoming halving, only Bitfarms, Iris, CleanSpark, TeraWulf, and Cormint among public miners are expected to operate profitably.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
