Ebang International Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: EBON, the “Company,” “we” or “our”), a global blockchain technology and Fintech company, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first six months of fiscal year 2023.

Operational and Financial Highlights for the First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2023

Total net revenues in the first six months of 2023 were US$4.09 million, representing an 83.69% period-over-period decrease from US$25.06 million in the same period of 2022.

Gross profit in the first six months of 2023 was US$0.99 million compared to the gross profit of US$14.24 million in the same period of 2022.

Net loss in the first six months of 2023 was US$8.38 million compared to US$10.92 million in the same period of 2022.

Mr. Dong Hu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “The first half of 2023 was a challenging period. Industry fluctuations and macroeconomic impacts have not yet led to a qualitative improvement in our performance, our cryptocurrency exchange business and cross-border payment and foreign exchange business have been developing steadily. Still, we have seen signs of gradual stability in consumer demand and the prospects for a sustainable economic market. We will continue to focus on providing personalized and diversified technology platforms and services, so that our customers can enjoy safer and more stable, efficient, and sustainable products and services, and we will continue to strive for customer satisfaction. Additionally, we have improved our cost control and capital utilization.”

Mr. Hu continues, “Looking forward to the future, we will continue to expand our business within selected regulated markets, adhere to technological innovation as our core driving force, develop and implement a new business strategy to achieve consistent growth, and actively embrace various opportunities while tackling challenges in the future. We are confident in our long-term prospects.” 

Unaudited Financial Results for the First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2023

Total net revenues in the first six months of 2023 were US$4.09 million, representing an 83.69% period-over-period decrease from US$25.06 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period decrease in total net revenues was due to the combined impact of: 1) a decrease in sale of products in the first six months of 2023; and 2) the receipt of payment from a former customer as a result of a court mediation in the first six months of 2022.

Cost of revenues in the first six months of 2023 was US$3.09 million, representing a 71.40% period-over-period decrease from US$10.82 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period decrease in cost of revenues was mainly due to the combined impact of a decrease in the Company’s sales of products, and decreased inventory write-downs for the potentially obsolete and slow-moving inventories for the first six months of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.

Gross profit in the first six months of 2023 was US$0.99 million, compared to the gross profit of US$14.24 million in the same period of 2022.

Total operating expenses in the first six months of 2023 were US$13.64 million compared to US$24.59 million in the same period of 2022.

  • Selling expenses in the first six months of 2023 were US$0.75 million compared to US$1.69 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period decrease in selling expenses was mainly caused by decreased general advertising and marketing expenses due to the adoption of precise advertising and other marketing methods related to our Fintech business for the first six months of 2023.
  • General and administrative expenses in the first six months of 2023 were US$12.89 million compared to US$22.90 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to the combined impact of 1) the Company’s optimization of its internal cost control; 2) lower bad debt expenses and depreciation expenses; 3) lower amortization expenses due to full impairment of intangible assets during the year of 2022.

Loss from operations in the first six months of 2023 was US$12.64 million compared to US$10.34 million in the same period of 2022.

Interest income in the first six months of 2023 was US$3.22 million compared to US$1.16 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period increase in interest income was mainly caused by an increase in interest rate for US dollar deposits and the Company had more fixed-term deposit with large principals for the first six months of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.

Other income in the first six months of 2023 was US$1.04 million compared to US$0.57 million in the same period of 2022. The period-over-period increase in other income was mainly due to the Company taking possession of customer deposits collected from previous years as a result of defaults by customers under their respective contracts with the Company.

Other expense in the first six months of 2023 was US$0.04 million compared to US$0.39 million in the same period of 2022.

Net loss in the first six months of 2023 was US$8.38 million compared to US$10.92 million in the same period of 2022.

Net loss attributable to Ebang International Holdings Inc. in the first six months of 2023 was US$7.82 million compared to US$10.08 million in the same period of 2022.

Basic and diluted net loss per share in the first six months of 2023 were both US$1.25 compared to US$1.61 in the same period of 2022.
