Nano Labs Ltd reported a net income of RMB137.7 million (US$19.6 million) for the July‑December 2025 period, a turnaround from a net loss of RMB60.4 million (US$13.6 million) in the same period of 2024. Revenue rose 18.1 % year‑over‑year to RMB18.7 million (US$2.7 million), up from RMB15.9 million in the second half of 2024. Operating income, or profit from operations, reached RMB60.8 million (US$8.7 million), compared with a loss of RMB55.6 million in the prior year. Net income per share was RMB6.2 (US$0.9) diluted, versus a diluted loss per share of RMB6.0 (US$0.9) in the second half of 2024.
The company posted a gross loss of RMB29.1 million (US$4.1 million) for the period, a reversal from a gross profit of RMB11.6 million in the second half of 2024. The loss was driven by a sharp increase in cost of revenue to RMB47.8 million, largely due to inventory write‑downs and a value‑added tax recoverable. A favorable fair‑value gain on Bitcoin‑denominated borrowings partially offset the impact of the write‑downs, but the overall effect was a net loss at the gross level.
Nano Labs’ crypto‑treasury strategy remains a central pillar of its new business model. As of December 31, 2025, the company held 126,662 BNB tokens and a receivable for 3,338 BNB. The company also announced a share repurchase program of up to US$25 million, beginning in late 2025. The BNB holdings are intended to provide a stable, high‑yield asset base that can be leveraged for future growth in the Web 3.0 ecosystem.
On March 6, 2026, Nano Labs launched the iPollo ClawPC A1 Mini, a compact AI‑powered workstation. Chairman and CEO Jianping Kong said, "The launch of iPollo ClawPC A1 Mini represents not only an evolution in AI software and hardware integration but also a meaningful step forward in our vision for the emerging Web 4.0 Era. We aim to elevate AI from a supportive tool to an independent and collaborative digital entity. This innovation underscores our commitment to driving technological transformation across the broader industry." CFO Bing Chen added that the new product "demonstrates our continued focus on high‑margin AI solutions and positions us for long‑term growth."
The earnings turnaround reflects Nano Labs’ strategic pivot from a legacy chip business to a Web 3.0 infrastructure and crypto‑treasury model. While the company achieved profitability, the gross loss and the sharp decline in cash and cash equivalents—from RMB32.4 million at the end of 2024 to RMB8.5 million at the end of 2025—highlight ongoing liquidity challenges. The company’s focus on BNB reserves and AI hardware signals a long‑term bet on digital asset stability and AI adoption, but the current cash position and gross‑loss margin suggest that the transition remains in its early stages and will require continued capital discipline.
Investor sentiment around the earnings release was positive, reflecting confidence in the company’s turnaround and its new strategic direction, though analysts and investors remain attentive to the company’s cash runway and the sustainability of its gross‑loss margin.
