Shares of Cango Inc. (CANG) faced downward pressure following disclosure of significant financial losses throughout its inaugural year operating as a major-scale digital currency mining enterprise. While the organization achieved robust top-line figures, it simultaneously registered considerable annual shortfalls stemming from elevated operational expenditures and balance sheet revaluations. Trading activity positioned the equity around $0.63 as executives detailed strategic initiatives centered on artificial intelligence computing infrastructure.
For fiscal 2025, Cango Inc. disclosed revenues totaling $688.1 million following aggressive international expansion of its mining infrastructure footprint. However, the organization simultaneously registered net losses amounting to $452.8 million across the identical timeframe. Executive leadership cited transformation-related expenditures and fair-value accounting methodology as primary contributors to the financial shortfall.
Cryptocurrency mining activities accounted for $675.5 million of aggregate revenues, constituting over 98% of total company income streams. Throughout the year, operations yielded 6,594.6 Bitcoin, translating to an approximate daily average of 18 digital coins. Mining velocity intensified during the year’s final quarter as the company extended operations throughout multiple global territories.
Total operating expenditures for the period reached $1.1 billion as equipment acquisition costs and asset devaluations mounted. The fourth quarter alone witnessed expenses climbing to $456 million, creating substantial drag on financial performance. Additional setbacks included an $81.4 million impairment charge related to mining hardware alongside significant collateral revaluation losses.
During the final three-month period, the company augmented production levels and generated 1,718.3 Bitcoin. Daily average production marginally improved to 18.68 coins throughout the quarter. Nevertheless, mining-related costs maintained an upward trajectory across the operational network.
Cango disclosed average per-coin mining expenses of $79,707 when excluding equipment depreciation calculations. This metric increased to $84,552 during the fourth quarter as operational overhead expanded. Comprehensive all-in production costs approximated $97,272 per Bitcoin annually.
When incorporating depreciation and additional adjustments, fourth quarter per-coin costs surpassed $106,000. Consequently, profit margins compressed and the company posted quarterly adjusted EBITDA losses of $156.3 million. Annual adjusted EBITDA nevertheless achieved a positive $24.5 million result attributable to stronger performance during earlier quarters.
Executive management has initiated reallocation of computational resources toward artificial intelligence infrastructure and high-performance computing service offerings. The organization recently liquidated approximately $305 million in Bitcoin holdings to bolster financial flexibility. This divestiture reduced digital asset reserves by roughly sixty percent.
Proceeds from the transaction enabled debt obligation settlement and financed infrastructure enhancements for emerging computing facilities. Current roadmap includes deployment of AI inference capabilities through the company’s EcoHash computing platform. Initial facility conversion projects are presently progressing across multiple operational locations.
This strategic direction mirrors an industry-wide movement among mining enterprises toward data center operations and AI-oriented workloads. Similarly, Core Scientific has announced comparable Bitcoin liquidation plans to support parallel expansion objectives. Cango currently maintains its New York Stock Exchange listing following termination of its American Depositary Receipt program and transition to direct equity listing format.
