HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Labs Ltd (Nasdaq: NA) (“we,” the “Company” or “Nano Labs”), a leading fabless integrated circuit design company and product solution provider in China, today announced its unaudited financial results as of June 30, 2023 and for the first half of 2023 then ended.

First Half of 2023 Financial Highlights

  • Net revenue was RMB52.3 million (US$7.2 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a net revenue of RMB380.1 million for the same period of 2022.
  • Gross loss was RMB62.9 million (US$8.7 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a gross profit of RMB176.4 million for the same period of 2022.
  • Loss from operations was RMB136.4 million (US$18.9 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a profit from operations of RMB107.6 million for the same period of 2022.
  • Net loss was RMB134.3 million (US$18.6 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a net income of RMB111.4 million for the same period of 2022.
  • Net loss per ordinary share (both basic and diluted) was RMB1.20 (US$0.17) for the first half of 2023, compared to net income per share (both basic and diluted) of RMB1.07 for the same period of 2022.

Mr. Jianping Kong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “The first half of 2023 was a challenging period for our industry and the entire cryptocurrency market. The prolonged slump in cryptocurrency prices had a certain impact on our product sales. Nevertheless, we continued to deliver high-quality products to our customers. We actively adjusted our development strategy to adapt to the ever-changing market environment. Our management team visited other countries, engaging with industry experts and potential partners, with the aim of exploring opportunities for global market expansion. We have been closely monitoring overseas markets, with a particular focus on North America, Northern Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. The proportion of our overseas market sales noticeably increased in the first half of this year. Through a series of market expansion initiatives, we will continue to tap into growth potential to increase our market share. Moreover, we have been continuously upgrading iPollo's advanced AI capabilities not only to enable real-time 3D metaverse rendering but also to support GPU-intensive calculations through a unified computing pool facilitated by its blockchain mechanism and high-speed data network.

We firmly believe that our iPollo will stand as an iconic product within the industry, consistently delivering a fresh web 3.0 experience to the market.”

Mr. Bing Chen, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “During the first half of 2023, due to the reduction in the cryptocurrency market, our net revenue was RMB52.3 million (US$7.2 million). We have laid out strategic plans with a keen emphasis on product upgrade and iteration and market expansion, so that we expect to seize growth opportunities in the global market. During the first half of 2023, we have achieved the initial revenues of 3D printing business and we would get a rapid growth in the coming half year and later on. In addition to our expansion plan, we will continue to optimize our operating efficiency and aim to achieve sustainable growth in the long-run. In the future, we anticipate harnessing our technological edge to foster enduring business growth and create greater value for our shareholders.”

First Half of 2023 Financial Results

Net Revenues

Net revenue was RMB52.3 million (US$7.2 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a net revenue of RMB380.1 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease in net revenues was primarily due to the decrease in sales volume of V and B Series and a decrease in service revenue for the first half of 2023, but we started to generate revenue in 3D products.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was RMB115.2 million (US$15.9 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to RMB203.8 million for the same period of 2022, the change was mainly due to the decrease in sales volume and partially offset by an increase in inventory write-down.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were RMB73.5 million (US$10.2 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to RMB68.7 million in the same period of 2022.

  • Selling and marketing expenses decreased by 6.5% to RMB9.5 million (US$1.3 million) for the first half of 2023, from RMB10.2 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease in selling and marketing expenses was primarily due to the decrease in advertising and marketing promotion expenses.
  • General and administrative expenses increased by 83.8% to RMB31.0 million (US$4.3 million) for the first half of 2023, from RMB16.9 million for the same period of 2022. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the increase in employee salary expenses, professional fees, and rental fees due to the development and expansion of its business.
  • Research and development expenses decreased by 21.0% to RMB33.0 million (US$4.6 million) for the first half of 2023, from RMB41.7 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to the decrease in design and service fees, material fees and share-based compensation expenses, offset by the increase in equipment rental fees. The Company expects to continue its significant investment in research and development to support its future development, product iteration, and competitive strengths.

Profit (Loss) from Operations

Loss from operations was RMB136.4 million (US$18.9 million) for the first half of 2023, compared with profit from operations of RMB107.6 million for the same period of 2022.

Finance Expenses (Income)

Finance expense was RMB1.6 million (US$0.2 million) for the first half of 2023, compared with finance income of RMB0.6 million for the same period of 2022 due to the increase of foreign currency exchange losses.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss was RMB134.3 million (US$18.6 million) for the first half of 2023, compared to a net income of RMB111.4 million for the same period of 2022.

Basic and diluted loss per share was RMB1.20 (US$0.17) for the first half of 2023, compared with basic and diluted income per share of RMB1.07 for the same period of 2022.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB16.8 million (US$2.3 million), compared with RMB87.8 million as of December 31, 2022.

Exchange Rate

This press release contains translations of certain Renminbi (RMB) amounts into U.S. dollars (US$) solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise specified, all translations of Renminbi amounts into U.S. dollar amounts in this press release are made at RMB 7.2258 to US$1.00, the central parity rate on June 30, 2023 published by the People’s Bank of China.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating our business, we consider and use adjusted net income (loss) as an additional non-GAAP measure to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense.

We present the non-GAAP financial measure because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP financial measures enable our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of non-cash charges and non-operating items. We also believe that the use of the non-GAAP measure facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the non-GAAP financial measure is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income (loss). Further, the non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
