Source Tradingkey
Key Takeaways
- Cango Inc. reported Q2 2026 revenue of $50.8 million, down approximately 50% from Q1, as the company reduced operational hashrate and shifted some mining capacity to a leasing model.
- Bitcoin mining generated $47.4 million of revenue. Cango mined 656 Bitcoins at an average cash cost of $73,313 per coin, down about 5% sequentially, and an all-in cost of $98,405 per coin.
- Net loss from continuing operations was $81.6 million. The result included $42.9 million of mining-machine impairment charges and an $8.5 million disposal loss, both tied to the restructuring of the mining asset base.
- Operating hashrate stood at 27.58 EH/s as of June 30, comprising 19.84 EH/s of self-mining capacity and 7.74 EH/s of leased capacity.
- After quarter-end, Cango completed infrastructure at its Georgia LN site capable of supporting up to 3 megawatts for AI operations and signed its first AI customer contract. Management expects modest AI-related revenue to begin in Q3 2026.
- Cango began implementing a Bitcoin hedging program during Q2. Management characterized it as a risk-management tool intended to reduce cash-flow sensitivity to Bitcoin price movements, not as speculative positioning.
