Cointelegraph
Bitcoin miner Canaan reported an $88.7 million Q1 2026 net loss due to declining Bitcoin prices and significant inventory write-downs.Summary
Canaan reported a net loss of $88.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, driven by a decline in Bitcoin prices and a $25 million inventory write-down. Total revenue dropped to $62.7 million from $196.3 million in the previous quarter. Despite these challenges, the company increased its self-mining hashrate by 66% to 11 EH/s and acquired a 49% stake in Cipher Mining's West Texas projects. Canaan expects Q2 revenue to remain soft, between $35 million and $45 million, as the broader mining industry faces margin compression.
