Mr. Jianping Kong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented: "In the first half of fiscal 2026, as the Web3.0 industry continued to mature and the global digital asset market evolved, Nano Labs identified significant opportunities arising from the convergence of artificial intelligence ("AI") and Web3.0. The Company believes these technologies have the potential to enhance blockchain infrastructure and unlock new applications, reinforcing its long-term strategic positioning.

"During the period, the Company launched its next-generation product, the iPollo ClawPC A1 Mini, designed to support the OpenClaw AI Agent system while also serving a broad range of applications, including gaming and entertainment, professional content creation, and intelligent office scenarios. The product is intended to provide users with an efficient, seamless, and localized AI experience.

"Building on this launch, the Company plans to further expand the OpenClaw ecosystem through its proprietary iPollo Claw OS and Skill Hub platform, with the objective of creating an integrated ecosystem spanning intelligent terminals, operating systems, hardware, software, and applications.

"The Company also continued advancing its digital asset reserve strategy. Based on its long-term assessment of the digital asset market and the broader blockchain ecosystem, management has incorporated digital assets as a strategic component of the Company’s capital allocation framework. As of the date of this interim report, the Company held a long-term reserve of 70,000 BNB.

"The Company believes that a disciplined approach to digital asset allocation will further strengthen its balance sheet, support ecosystem partnerships, and provide greater flexibility for future strategic initiatives.

"In order to enhance the shareholder’s beneficial, as of August 26, 2026, pursuant to the Repurchase Program, the Company had completed repurchases of Class A ordinary shares for a total consideration of US$3.2 million."

Mr. Bing Chen, Chief Financial Officer, added: "For the first half of 2026, we recorded net revenue of RMB2.8 million (US$0.4 million) and net loss of RMB316.7 million (US$46.5 million), compared to a net loss of RMB11.8 million in the same period last year. The volatility of market prices resulted in changes in the fair value of cryptocurrencies, which in turn contributed to an increase in the net loss.

"Looking ahead, we intend to continue exploring opportunities created by advances in AI, Web3.0, and next-generation computing infrastructure. Through technology innovation, strategic partnerships, and ecosystem development, the Company seeks to strengthen its competitive position and enhance long-term shareholder value."

Unless otherwise specified, all translations of Renminbi amounts into U.S. dollar amounts in this press release are made at RMB6.8109 to US$1.00, the central parity rate on June 30, 2026 published by the People’s Bank of China.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating our business, we consider and use adjusted net income/(loss) as an additional non-GAAP measure to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expense.

We present the non-GAAP financial measure because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP financial measures enable our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of non-cash charges and non-operating items. We also believe that the use of the non-GAAP measure facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the non-GAAP financial measure is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income/(loss). Further, the non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
