From Nov 2022 to Nov 2024
SHANGHAI, April 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Intchains Group Limited (Nasdaq: ICG) ("we," or the "Company"), a provider of integrated solutions consisting of high-performance computing ASIC chips and ancillary software and hardware for blockchain applications, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Operating and Financial Highlights
Full Year 2022 Operating and Financial Highlights
Mr. Qiang Ding, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In the fourth quarter of 2022, our performance was adversely affected by the significant price decline of cryptocurrencies, which led to a decreased market demand for our products, in particular, ASIC chips, as we expected. As a result, we lowered the price of our products to address business-critical headwinds in the fourth quarter of 2022 in response to tough market conditions, which resulted in a decrease in product gross margin from 85% for the first three quarters of 2022 to 41% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Although our overall performance in the fourth quarter of 2022 was not as good as the same period of 2021, we still achieved profitability, which was in line with the management's expectations for the fourth quarter of 2022. From our operating perspective, our workforce increased from 94 to 101 in the fourth quarter of 2022, including ten new dedicated research and development (R&D) employees. The expansion of our R&D team further enhanced our R&D capabilities, especially for the development of 'Xihe' Platform and 'Wangshu' Platform, and will help us better prepare for when the market recovers from its current decline. Despite the challenging environment in 2022, we achieved sales revenue of RMB473.7 million in 2022, with a gross margin of 82%, which is comparable to that in 2021. Our net income was RMB355.2 million for 2022."
Mr. Ding continued, "The management anticipates a stable financial condition and continued profitability for the first quarter of 2023. We started to expand our business in Singapore. In March 2023, we completed our initial public offering ("IPO") of 1,114,516 American depositary shares ("ADSs"), after underwriters partially exercised over-allotment option to purchase additional ADSs. The proceeds from the IPO will be used for the continued development of new products on 'Xihe' Platform and 'Wangshu' Platform, as well as the expansion of our business in Singapore. Looking ahead, we are confident that while we may still encounter certain near-term macroeconomic uncertainties, the long-term opportunities in global markets remain abundant. We will continue to invest in research and development of new products and business expansion, seizing market opportunities and striving to create long-term value for our shareholders."

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreased by 9.3% to RMB 64.0 million (US$ 9.3 million) in 2022, from RMB70.6 million in 2021, primarily due to the decrease in research and development expenses for the design of ASIC chips.
Interest Income

Foreign Exchange (Loss)/ Gains, Net
Foreign exchange gains, net was RMB3.5 million (US$0.5 million) in 2022, compared with foreign exchange loss, net of RMB0.2 million in 2021, as a result of the exchange rate fluctuation between RMB and U.S. dollars as we make prepayment to our foundry partner in U.S. dollars.
Other Income
Other income increased to RMB29.8 million (US$4.3 million) in 2022, from RMB0.7 million in 2021, primarily due to the increase in government grants we received from local government.
