## Exhibit 99.1

![imagea.jpg](imagea.jpg)<br>

**Core Scientific Announces Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Results**

**AUSTIN, Texas, October 24, 2025** - **Core Scientific, Inc**. (**NASDAQ: CORZ**), a leader in digital infrastructure for high-density colocation services and digital asset mining, today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter of 2025.

**Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Total revenue** was $81.1 million compared to $95.4 million in the third quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Digital asset self-mining revenue was $57.4 million, down from $68.1 million in the prior-year period. The decline was primarily driven by a 55% decrease in bitcoin mined, partially offset by a 88% increase in the average bitcoin price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Digital asset hosted mining revenue was $8.7 million, down from $16.9 million in the same period a year ago. The decrease was driven by the continued strategic shift to our high-density colocation business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ High-Density Colocation ("HDC", formerly "HPC hosting") revenue was $15.0 million, up from $10.3 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increase was due to the expansion of colocation operations since the prior-year period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Gross profit** was $3.9 million compared to a gross loss of $0.2 million in the same period last year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Net loss** was $146.7 million, compared to $455.3 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to a smaller GAAP non-cash fair value adjustment of $74.9 million for the third quarter of 2025 versus $408.5 million for the third quarter of 2024, reflecting lower remeasurement charges related to outstanding warrants and contingent value rights as a result of less significant stock price appreciation during the current period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adjusted EBITDA** was $(2.4) million, compared to $10.1 million for the prior year period, driven by a $14.4 million increase in cash operating expenses, a $14.3 million decrease in total revenue, partially offset by a $11.2 million increase in the change in fair value of digital assets, and a $4.9 million decrease in cash cost of revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Capital expenditures** were $244.5 million, $196.4 million of which were funded by CoreWeave, Inc. pursuant to its existing colocation service agreements with the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Liquidity is** $694.8 million, consisting of $453.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $241.4 million of bitcoin as of the end of the third quarter of 2025.

**PENDING COREWEAVE TRANSACTION**

On July 7, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with CoreWeave. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, if consummated, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, including the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock entitled to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, CoreWeave

would acquire the Company in an all-stock transaction. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of the Company's common stock at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement) would be cancelled and converted into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of CoreWeave Class A common stock, equal to the exchange ratio of 0.1235. The transaction is subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders at the Company's Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held virtually at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 30, 2025 and other customary closing conditions. Additional details regarding the transaction can be found in the Company's definitive proxy statement that has been filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction, which can be found on the Company's investor relations page.

**CONFERENCE CALL AND EARNINGS PRESENTATION**

Due to the pending transaction, Core Scientific will not be hosting a conference call or providing an accompanying earnings presentation in conjunction with its third quarter 2025 earnings release.

**ABOUT CORE SCIENTIFIC**

Core Scientific, Inc. ("Core Scientific" or the "Company") is a leader in digital infrastructure for high-density colocation services and digital asset mining. We operate dedicated, purpose-built facilities for high-density colocation services and are a premier provider of digital infrastructure, software solutions and services to our third-party customers.

We currently derive the majority of our revenue from earning digital assets for our own account but expect to rapidly increase revenue derived from high-density colocation ("HDC"). We currently intend to repurpose our remaining facilities currently used in our digital asset mining businesses to support our high-density colocation computing services business as circumstances allow and in a manner designed to retain access to electrical power under our control, maximize the value of our digital asset mining equipment to third parties, and fulfill our existing obligations to suppliers and customers. Our facilities are located in Alabama (1), Georgia (2), Kentucky (1), North Carolina (1), North Dakota (1), Oklahoma (1) and Texas (3). To learn more, visit www.corescientific.com.

 Core Scientific, Inc. Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Release - 11

**Core Scientific, Inc.**

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

**(Unaudited)**

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as our net loss, adjusted to eliminate the effect of (i) interest income, interest expense, and other income (expense), net; (ii) provision for income taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) stock-based compensation expense; (v) Reorganization items, net; (vi) unrealized fair value adjustment on energy derivatives; (vii) change in the fair value of warrant and contingent value rights, (viii) Colocation organizational startup costs which are not reflective of the ongoing costs incurred after startup, (ix) post-emergence bankruptcy advisory costs incurred related to reorganization which are not reflective of the ongoing costs incurred in post-emergence operations, (x) transaction costs incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement, including advisory, legal, and other professional or consulting fees, (xi) loss on legal settlements that are not indicative of ongoing business operations, and (xii) certain additional non-cash items that do not reflect the performance of our ongoing business operations. For additional information, including the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, please refer to the table below. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure because it allows management, investors, and our Board of Directors to evaluate and compare our operating results, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period-to-period by making the adjustments described above. In addition, it provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effect of net interest expense, taxes, certain non-cash items, variable charges and timing differences. Moreover, we have included Adjusted EBITDA in this earnings release because it is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic and financial planning.

The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature or because the amount and timing of these items are not related to the current results of our core business operations which renders evaluation of our current performance, comparisons of performance between periods and comparisons of our current performance with our competitors less meaningful. However, you should be aware that when evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating this measure. Our presentation of this measure should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies because not all companies calculate this measure in the same fashion. You should review the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
