| 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 |
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, 2023 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, 2023.
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, 2024, the results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, 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 variable consideration for revenue recognition, valuation of series A convertible preferred shares, preferred shares forward contract liability, pre-delivery shares, deferred tax assets, write-down for inventories and prepayments, provision for reserve for inventory purchase commitments, valuation and recognition of share-based compensation, impairment on cryptocurrency, fair value of cryptocurrency, fair value of derivative assets and liabilities 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.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all amounts in thousands, except share and per share data, or as otherwise noted)
As a result of adopting ASU 2023-08, the Company measures cryptocurrency at fair value as of each reporting period in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), based on quoted prices on the active trading platform that the Company normally transacts and has determined is its principal market for bitcoin (Level 1 inputs), based on all information that is reasonably available. Since bitcoin is traded on a 24-hour period, the Company utilizes the price at the start of day Coordinated Universal Time (00:00:00 UTC), which aligns with the Company's revenue recognition policy. Gains and losses from the remeasurement of cryptocurrencyare included within change in fair value of cryptocurrency, net in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The Company sells cryptocurrency and gains and losses from such transactions, measured as the difference between the cash proceeds and the carrying basis of cryptocurrency as determined on a first-in-first-out basis, are also included within change in fair value of cryptocurrencyin the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The Company recorded change in fair value of cryptocurrencyof $28.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
| (e) | Pledged cryptocurrency receivable |
The Company enters into borrowing arrangements that require the Company to pledge collateral in the form of cryptocurrency. If the lender obtains control or has the right to sell, pledge, or rehypothecate the Company’s collateral, the Company derecognizes the pledged bitcoins, and recognizes a receivable from the lender when pledge was made. Pledged cryptocurrency receivable which will be released within one year is included in the current assets and which will be released over one year is included in the non-current assets. Pledged cryptocurrency receivable are initially and subsequently measured at the fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded in other income (expenses), net. If the lender does not obtain control or have the right to sell, pledge, or rehypothecate the collateral, the pledged bitcoins does not meet the derecognition criteria and is recorded in cryptocurrency, restricted.
Long-term loans are carried at amortized cost. Transaction costs are recorded as direct deductions from the related loan liabilities and amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the terms of the loan term loan. Interest expense on debt includes long-term loan interest expense, as well as amortization of debt issuance costs.
Cryptocurrency borrowings are accounted for as hybrid instruments, with a dollar-denominated debt host contract that contains an embedded derivative. The initial fair value of the embedded derivative is zero and subsequently measured at the fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net .
The Company may enter into arrangements that result in obtaining the right to receive or obligation to deliver a fixed amount of cryptocurrency in the future. Such arrangements are accounted as hybrid instruments, consisting of a receivable or debt host contract that is initially measured at the fair value of the underlying cryptocurrency and is subsequently carried at amortized cost, and an embedded forward feature based on the changes in the fair value of the underlying cryptocurrency. The embedded forward is bifurcated from the host contract, and is subsequently measured at fair value. The Company presents the embedded derivative instrument together with the host contract.

A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which would affect operating results adversely.

Note a: The Company entered into several contracts to purchase foundry service. These contracts represent firm purchase commitments which are evaluated for potential losses. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Company’s purchase obligation to third-party suppliers for foundry service was US$42,904 and nil, respectively.
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company assessed the loss contingency under the foundry service contracts taking into account the estimated selling price of mining equipment. The provision was determined by applying a methodology similar to that used in the lower of cost or net realizable value with respect to inventory, using estimates of the costs to convert raw materials into final products in order to determine net realizable value. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, a provision of US$25,477 and nil has been recognized in cost of revenues for the Company’s inventory purchase commitments under foundry service contracts as a result of the decline in the estimated selling price of mining equipment based on the most recent subsequent selling price.
Note b: For mining equipment, the Company provides its customers for 360 days warranty, subject to certain conditions, such as normal use. The Company provides for the estimated costs of warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty obligation include product defect rates and costs of repair or replacement.

On June 12, 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into Master Loan and Pledge Agreements (the “Agreements”) with a third party (the “Lender”). Pursuant to the Agreements, the Lender 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 also require the Company to transfer certain amounts of its Bitcoins to the Lender 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.
