Question
Logan Hennen of Northland Capital Markets inquired about current market dynamics, pricing strategy, and demand for A15 miners, and followed up on Canaan's strategy for penetrating the North American market with its new U.S. production facility.
Answer
CEO Nangeng Zhang noted that the average selling price (ASP) rose to $11.1 per terahash in Q2. He acknowledged U.S. customer hesitation due to tariffs but sees demand returning, aided by the new U.S. facility which mitigates some tariff impacts. Zhang emphasized North America's long-term strategic importance. CFO James Cheng added that the U.S. facility improves delivery and customer experience, citing recent orders from Cypher and CleanSpark as proof of concept.
