Intchains Group Limited Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023

Unaudited Financial Results

SHANGHAI, China – February 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Intchains Group Limited (Nasdaq: ICG) (“we,” or the “Company”), a provider of integrated solutions consisting of high-performance computing ASIC chip products and ancillary software and hardware for blockchain applications, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Operating and Financial Highlights

 

   

Sales volume of ASIC chips was 423,040 units for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 36.5% from 666,420 units for the same period of 2022. Fourth quarter ASIC chip sales consisted of 287,872 units sold directly to customers and 135,168 units embedded in computing equipment for blockchain applications that we began offering to customers in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

   

Revenue was RMB35.5 million (US$5.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 5.3% from RMB33.7 million for the same period of 2022.

 

   

Net income was RMB8.1 million (US$1.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 36.2% from RMB12.7 million for the same period of 2022.

Full Year 2023 Operating and Financial Highlights

 

   

Sales volume of ASIC chips was 1,457,373 units for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing a year-over-year decrease of 55.0% from 3,235,235 units for 2022. Full year 2023 ASIC chip sales consisted of 1,322,205 units sold directly to customers and 135,168 units embedded in computing equipment for blockchain applications that we began offering to customers in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

   

Revenue was RMB82.2 million (US$11.6 million) for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing a year-over-year decrease of 82.6% from RMB473.7 million for 2022.

 

   

Net loss was RMB26.8 million (US$3.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a net income of RMB355.2 million for 2022.

Mr. Qiang Ding, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “2023 was a year filled with accomplishments as well as challenges for Intchains. Our successful first quarter listing on the Nasdaq marked the commencement of an exciting new stage in our development. Throughout the year, we actively addressed evolving market conditions with investments in innovative technology, enhancing our competitiveness, and extending our presence across the industry value chain. Our latest ASIC chip, designed and manufactured using a 12nm process node, completed the relevant IC verification and trial production processes in February 2024 and is set to enter mass production in March 2024. Furthermore, following our successful acquisition of the Goldshell brand and related assets in February 2024, we expect to officially launch our Goldshell-branded computing equipment for blockchain applications in March 2024. In addition to these positive developments, our revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 experienced significant growth of 418.2% compared to the third quarter, due to the fourth quarter rebound of the cryptocurrency market, following a downturn in the preceding quarter. As a result, we achieved quarterly profitability for the fourth quarter of 2023. Despite short-term volatility, we are confident in the industry’s trajectory for 2024 and the long-term prospects of the entire WEB3 landscape. We will continue to optimize capital utilization efficiency as we pursue further development opportunities along the value chain, laying a robust foundation for our sustainable growth.”


Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue

Revenue was RMB35.5 million (US$5.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 5.3% from RMB33.7 million for the same period of 2022. Our revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily comprised revenue derived from the sales of our ASIC chips, computing equipment that incorporated our ASIC chips for blockchain applications, ancillary software and hardware and others. The increase was primarily attributable to a one-off sale of intelligent router products which generated RMB12.6 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023. These intelligent router products were acquired from third parties and integrated with our software solutions for resale purposes. This was a one-off transaction for us and we currently have no intention to continue this business in the future. This increase in revenue was partially offset by the decrease in ASIC chip sales volumes.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was RMB14.1 million (US$2.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 29.3% from RMB20.0 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to the reversal of the write-off of the intelligent router products referenced above. We wrote off the intelligent router products in the second quarter of 2023 due to our belief that they could not be sold considering the adverse market conditions. This write-off was reversed in full in the fourth quarter of 2023 upon the sale of the intelligent router products. This reversal reduced our total cost of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in our ASIC chip sales volumes also contributed to the decrease in our cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were RMB22.8 million (US$3.2 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 79.0% from RMB12.7 million for the same period of 2022. This increase was due to an increase in each category of operating expenses.

 

   

Research and development expenses increased by 40.2% to RMB14.0 million (US$2.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB10.0 million for the same period of 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increased intellectual property expenses, labor costs and depreciation and amortization expenses for the design of ASIC chips.

 

   

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 65.3% to RMB1.8 million (US$0.3 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB1.1 million for the same period of 2022, mainly driven by increased personnel-related expenses.

 

   

General and administrative expenses increased by 316.6% to RMB7.0 million (US$1.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB1.7 million for the same period of 2022, primarily due to increased lease-related expenses, labor costs, and professional expenses.


Interest Income

Interest income increased by 22.3% to RMB4.2 million (US$0.6 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB3.5 million for the same period of 2022, mainly attributable to our effective cash management.

Other Income, net

Our other income, net, decreased by 29.6% to RMB7.5 million (US$1.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB10.6 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in grants received from the local government. The grants were issued in support of eligible IC industry projects with no repayment obligations.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net income of RMB8.1 million (US$1.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of 36.2% from RMB12.7 million for the same period of 2022.

Basic and Diluted Net Earnings Per Ordinary Share

Basic and diluted net earnings per ordinary share decreased by 36.4% to RMB0.07 (US$0.01) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB0.11 for the same period of 2022. Each ADS represents two of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares.

Full Year 2023 Financial Results

Revenue

Revenue was RMB82.2 million (US$11.6 million) in 2023, representing a decrease of 82.6% from RMB473.7 million in 2022. The decrease was mainly due to the overall challenging cryptocurrency market in 2023, leading to decreases in the sales volume and average selling price of our ASIC chips, partially offset by the revenue of RMB13.8 million derived from the sales of certain intelligent router products referenced above.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was RMB73.1 million (US$10.3 million) for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing a decrease of 15.9% from RMB87.0 million for 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decline in sales volume of our ASIC chips, largely offset by an inventory write-down and a prepayment write-down, totaling approximately RMB24.7 million.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were RMB74.0 million (US$10.4 million) for 2023, representing an increase of 15.7% from RMB64.0 million for 2022. This increase was primarily due to increases in both sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by a decrease in research and development expenses.

 

   

Research and development expenses decreased by 12.6% to RMB42.3 million (US$6.0 million) for 2023 from RMB48.4 million for 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to the different stages of our research and development projects during the reporting period, partially offset by an increase in labor costs and depreciation and amortization expenses.


   

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 60.5% to RMB6.5 million (US$0.9 million) for 2023 from RMB4.1 million for 2022, mainly due to an increase in personnel-related expenses.

 

   

General and administrative expenses increased by 118.1% to RMB25.2 million (US$3.6 million) for 2023 from RMB11.6 million for 2022, primarily due to an increase in rental expenses, labor costs and professional expenses.

Interest Income

Interest income increased by 50.5% to RMB16.8 million (US$2.4 million) for 2023 from RMB11.1 million for 2022, mainly attributable to our effective cash management.

Other Income, net

Our other income, net decreased by 55.6% to RMB13.2 million (US$1.9 million) for 2023 from RMB29.7 million for 2022. The decrease was primarily due to decreased grants received from the local government. The grants were issued in support of eligible IC industry projects with no repayment obligations.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net loss of RMB26.8 million (US$3.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared with a net income of RMB355.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Ordinary Share

Basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share were RMB0.22 (US$0.03) for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared with basic and diluted net earnings per ordinary share of RMB3.02 for the year ended December 31, 2022. Each ADS represents two of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares.

Recent Developments

On February 28, 2024, the Company completed its previously reported acquisition of certain assets from Singapore-based GOLDSHELL PTE. LTD., or the Seller, in accordance with an asset acquisition agreement between the Company and the Seller dated December 8, 2023. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of such asset acquisition agreement, the Company acquired the Goldshell brand and certain related assets for a cash consideration of US$550,000.

On January 22, 2024, Maxim Partners LLC exercised the underwriter’s warrants granted in connection with our initial public offering on the Nasdaq Capital Market in full through a cashless exercise to acquire 7,921 of our ADSs.
