DALLAS, Texas, Dec. 24, 2025 — Greenridge Capital has initiated coverage on Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) (“Cango” or the “Company”), assigning a buy rating and a US$4.00 target price. The firm noted that Cango appears to be “undervalued and overlooked by the market, given its leading position in Bitcoin mining and asset-light model for entering the high-performance computing (HPC) market.”

According to the Greenridge Capital report, Cango is trading below the value of its assets, which include liquid cash holdings, over US$600 million in BTC held under a strict HODL strategy, a 50 EH/s globally distributed mining portfolio, and a 50MW data center in the U.S. state of Georgia (acquired in Q3 of 2025). The report also highlights ongoing cost reduction measures, reflecting operational discipline, and Cango’s ability to capitalize on future opportunities through its strong financial position.

Looking ahead, Cango’s strategy to diversify revenue and enhance profitability focuses on securing control over its own power supply—a key strategic step for future AI data center or Bitcoin mining operations. The report emphasizes Cango’s “Energy + HPC” plan, which aims to expand into flexible energy and data infrastructure projects offering higher margin opportunities and cash generation potential. Supporting this expansion are two pilot projects already in progress: a solar generation and storage pilot project in Oman, and a 150MW power generation facility in Indonesia (developed with a partner, which could potentially be expanded to 300MW in the future). Further updates from management are expected in the coming months.

Greenridge Capital’s US$4.00 price target is based on a blended valuation approach using two methodologies: (1) a 7x EV/Adjusted EBITDA multiple applied to a 2026 adjusted EBITDA estimate of US$335.4 million, and (2) a 15x P/E multiple applied to a 2026 diluted EPS estimate of US$0.34. Both multiples are conservative relative to industry peers. Notably, this valuation does not yet assign value to Cango’s developing energy infrastructure projects, which could unlock substantial value in the future as project milestones are achieved.
