**CORECIVIC REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS** 

***RAISES 2025 FULL YEAR GUIDANCE***

***INCREASING DEMAND DRIVES STRONG FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE***

**BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – August 6, 2025 – CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW)** (CoreCivic or the Company) announced today its second quarter 2025 financial results.

**Financial Highlights – Second Quarter 2025** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Total revenue of $538.2 million, up 9.8% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net income of $38.5 million, up 103.4% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Diluted earnings per share of $0.35, up 105.9% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.36, up 80.0% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Normalized FFO per diluted share of $0.59, up 40.5% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA of $103.3 million, up 23.2% from the prior year quarter

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Repurchased 2.0 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $43.2 million

Damon T. Hininger, CoreCivic's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Increasing demand for the solutions we provide, particularly from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), contributed to a strong second quarter, as nationwide detention populations under ICE custody reached an all-time high. We expect the substantial increase in government funding approved during July to result in further increases in the utilization of our existing capacity. Based on the strength of our second quarter financial results and outlook for our business during the second half of 2025, we are increasing our 2025 financial guidance."

Hininger continued, "We continued to deploy capital in ways that we believe add shareholder value. During the second quarter, we repurchased 2.0 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $43.2 million. At the beginning of the third quarter, we completed the acquisition of the Farmville Detention Center in Virginia for $67 million at an attractive return."

Patrick Swindle, CoreCivic's President and Chief Operating Officer, remarked, "We made substantial progress in re-activating three previously idled facilities during the second quarter, and our activation teams are preparing for additional contracting activity. ICE has been deliberate in increasing detention utilization under existing contracts while also executing new contracts at previously idled facilities. We expect to begin receiving detainees at our California City Immigration Processing Center in the near term, we are in advanced negotiations to activate a fourth idle facility, and we continue discussions to activate additional idle facilities. During the third quarter we also began integrating operations at the Farmville Detention Center, where we provide transportation, care, and civil detention services to adult male noncitizens under ICE custody. Along with the acquisition of the facility, we welcomed approximately 200 employees to our team."

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

**Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Compared With Second Quarter 2024** 

Net income in the second quarter of 2025 was $38.5 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared with net income in the second quarter of 2024 of $19.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share (Diluted EPS). Adjusted for special items, Adjusted Net Income for the second quarter of 2025 was $39.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share (Adjusted Diluted EPS), compared with Adjusted Net Income of $21.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Special items in the second quarter of 2025 included charges of $1.5 million associated with the acquisition of the Farmville Detention Center, included in general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of operations. Special items in the prior year quarter included $4.1 million of expenses associated with debt repayments and refinancing transactions. Special items are presented in detail in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS in the Supplemental Financial Information following the financial statements presented herein.

The increase in Diluted EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS compared with the prior year quarter resulted from higher federal and state populations as well as higher average per diem rates across much of our portfolio, combined with the recognition of employee retention credits (ERCs) available under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act amounting to $0.08 per share. These increases were net of the financial impact of the termination of our contract with ICE at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center effective August 9, 2024. However, we began re-activating the Dilley facility during March 2025. The agreement governing the reactivation provides for a fixed monthly payment from ICE in accordance with a graduated schedule to correlate with the activation of each neighborhood within the facility. The Dilley facility accounted for a $0.07 per share reduction compared with the second quarter of 2024.

We cared for an average daily residential population of 54,026 during the second quarter of 2025 in our Safety and Community segments compared with 51,541 during the second quarter of 2024. Average occupancy during the second quarter of 2025 was 76.8% in our Safety and Community segments, compared with 74.3% during the second quarter of 2024, even after reflecting the activation and transfer of our 2,560-bed California City Immigration Processing Center from the Properties segment to the Safety segment effective April 1, 2025, when we entered into a Letter Contract with ICE to reactive operations at the facility. The California City facility was previously in our Properties segment because it was leased to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation until the lease expired March 31, 2024. We expect to begin receiving detainees from ICE at the California City facility in the near term under terms of the Letter Contract.

During the second quarter of 2025, revenue from ICE, our largest government partner, was $176.9 million compared to $151.0 million during the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 17.2%, including the termination of our ICE contract at the Dilley facility effective August 9, 2024, partially offset by its reactivation effective April 1, 2025. The termination and reactivation accounted for a net reduction in revenue of $12.8 million. Revenue from state customers increased 5.2% compared with the prior year quarter, with increases across many of our government customers. New contracts with the state of Montana executed in August 2024 and January 2025 accounted for the largest increase in revenue from state customers. Further, revenue from the U.S. Marshals Service, our second largest government customer, increased 2.7% from the prior year quarter.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the second quarter of 2025 was $101.8 million, compared with $79.8 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes special items, was $103.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared with $83.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increases in EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from the prior year quarter were primarily attributable to higher residential populations in our portfolio, net of reductions for the contract termination at the Dilley facility and the expiration of the lease with the CDCR at the California City facility. The increases in EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA also included $8.3 million of ERCs recognized during the second quarter of 2025, and $3.2 million of interest collected on the ERCs.

Funds From Operations (FFO) for the second quarter of 2025 was $63.5 million, or $0.58 per share, compared with $43.8 million, or $0.39 per share, in the second quarter of 2024. Normalized FFO, which excludes special items, was $64.6 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025, compared with $46.6 million, or $0.42 per share, in the second quarter of 2024. Normalized FFO was impacted by the same factors that affected Adjusted EBITDA, further improved by a reduction in gross interest expense that is not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA. The reduction in gross interest expense resulted from a decrease in our average outstanding debt balance combined with a decrease in the interest rates associated with our variable rate debt. Per share amounts were also favorably impacted by a 2.1% reduction in weighted average shares outstanding compared with the prior year quarter resulting from repurchases we made under our share repurchase program.

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share amounts, are measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Please refer to the Supplemental Financial Information and the note following the financial statements herein for further discussion and reconciliations of these measures to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

**Capital Strategy** 

***Share Repurchases.*** Our Board of Directors (BOD) previously approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $350.0 million of our common stock. On May 15, 2025, the BOD authorized an increase to the share repurchase program by which we may purchase up to an additional $150.0 million in shares of our outstanding common stock, increasing the total aggregate authorization to up to $500.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 3.9 million shares of common stock under the share repurchase program at an aggregate cost of $81.0 million, or $20.52 per share, excluding costs associated with the share repurchase program, including 2.0 million shares at an aggregate cost of $43.2 million during the second quarter of 2025. Since the share repurchase program was authorized in May 2022, through June 30, 2025, we have repurchased a total of 18.5 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $262.1 million, or $14.19 per share, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases.

As of June 30, 2025, we had $237.9 million of repurchase authorization available under the share repurchase program. Additional repurchases of common stock will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made at management's discretion within parameters set by the BOD from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase program has no time limit and does not obligate us to purchase any particular amount of our common stock. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, suspended, increased or decreased by our BOD in its discretion at any time.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

***Acquisition of Farmville Detention Center***. ****On July 1, 2025, we completed the acquisition of the Farmville Detention Center, a 736-bed facility constructed in 2010 and located in Farmville, Virginia. The transaction was consummated through the acquisition of 100% of the membership interests in entities that own and operate the facility, as well as the acquisition of certain assets utilized in the operation of the business. Farmville Detention Center provides transportation, care, and civil detention services to adult male noncitizens through an Intergovernmental Service Agreement (IGSA) between Prince Edward County, Virginia and ICE, which expires in March 2029. The total purchase price, amounting to $67.0 million, was funded with cash on hand and borrowing capacity under our revolving bank credit facility. We expect annual incremental revenue of approximately $40.0 million resulting from this acquisition.

**Business Development Updates** 

***Activation of the Dilley Immigration Processing Center***. On March 5, 2025, we announced that we had agreed under an amendment to an IGSA to resume operations and care for up to 2,400 individuals at the 2,400-bed Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Dilley, Texas. We began receiving residents at this facility during the second quarter of 2025. By the end of the second quarter of 2025, three of the five neighborhoods at the facility were operational. We currently expect all five neighborhoods at the facility to be fully operational on schedule by the end of the third quarter of 2025, when we expect to generate the full fixed monthly payment for the facility.

***Intake Process Expected to Begin at the California City Immigration Processing Center***. Effective April 1, 2025, we entered into a Letter Contract with ICE to begin activation efforts at our 2,560-bed California City Immigration Processing Center. The Letter Contract authorizes initial funding up to $10.0 million with maximum funding up to $31.2 million for a six-month period to help cover our start-up expenses while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract. We expect to begin receiving detainees from ICE at the California City facility in the near term under terms of the Letter Contract.

***Midwest Regional Reception Center***. Effective March 7, 2025, we entered into a Letter Contract with ICE to begin activation efforts at our 1,033-bed Midwest Regional Reception Center. The Letter Contract authorizes initial funding up to $5.0 million with maximum funding up to $22.6 million for a six-month period to help cover our start-up expenses while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract. The intake process has been delayed by a lawsuit filed by the City of Leavenworth alleging that a Special Use Permit (SUP) is required to operate the facility. A state court granted a temporary restraining order barring us from housing detainees at the facility without first obtaining an SUP. We have filed an appeal in the state court on the basis that the SUP is not applicable under existing statute. We believe ICE remains intent on using this facility.

**2025 Financial Guidance** 

Based on current business conditions, we are providing the following updated financial guidance for the full year 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Revised Guidance<br>Full Year 2025** | **Prior Guidance<br>Full Year 2025** |
|  ➣ Net income | $116.4 million to $124.4 million | $91.3 million to $101.3 million |
|  ➣ Adjusted Net Income | $115.5 million to $123.5 million | $91.3 million to $101.3 million |

|  ➣ Normalized FFO per diluted share | $1.99 to $2.07 | $1.72 to $1.82 |
|  ➣ EBITDA | $366.3 million to $372.3 million | $331.0 million to $339.0 million |
|  ➣ Adjusted EBITDA | $365.0 million to $371.0 million | $331.0 million to $339.0 million |

---

Compared with our prior 2025 annual guidance provided on May 7, 2025, our revised 2025 guidance reflects the favorable results for the second quarter, updated occupancy projections consistent with current trends, the acquisition of the Farmville Detention Center, as well as our assumptions for the reactivation of the California City Immigration Processing Center based on the expectation of receiving detainee populations during the third quarter of 2025.

Consistent with our past practice, our guidance does not include the impact of any new contract awards not previously announced. However, we may continue to execute new contracts during the balance of 2025, and may revise guidance throughout the year if and when new contracts are signed. Although we can provide no assurance, based on significant funding levels for detention capacity that will be available under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, modified immigration policies of the current administration, as well as newly enacted legislation pertaining to illegal immigrants requiring the utilization of detention for certain criminal violations, we expect new contracts to require the activation of more of our idle facilities. The activation of an idle facility generally requires four to six months to hire, train, and prepare the facility to accept residential populations, which, depending on contract structure, could result in additional expenses before we are able to realize additional revenue. To the extent any new contract requires the activation of an idle facility before we begin to recognize revenue, our guidance could be negatively impacted by start-up expenses until the revenue we generate offsets these expenses. Due to activation timing, full year benefits from idle facility activations are likely to be more impactful to 2026 results.

During 2025, we expect to invest $29.0 million to $31.0 million in maintenance capital expenditures on real estate assets, $31.0 million to $34.0 million for maintenance capital expenditures on other assets and information technology, and $9.0 million to $10.0 million for other capital investments. Although our guidance does not include any new contract awards beyond those previously announced, we also expect to incur approximately $70.0 million to $75.0 million of capital expenditures associated with previously idled facilities we are activating and for additional potential facility activations, in order to prepare these facilities to quickly accept residential populations if opportunities arise, as well as to provide transportation services.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

**NOTE TO SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION** 

Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share metrics are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of the Company's results of operations and are used to review and assess operating performance of the Company and its properties and their management teams. The Company believes that it is useful to provide investors, security analysts, and other interested parties disclosures of its results of operations on the same basis that is used by management.

FFO, in particular, is a widely accepted non-GAAP supplemental measure of performance of real estate companies, grounded in the standards for FFO established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate and impairment of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. As a company with extensive real estate holdings, we believe FFO and FFO per share are important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs and other real estate operating companies, many of which present FFO and FFO per share when reporting results. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and FFO are useful as supplemental measures of performance of the Company's properties because such measures do not take into account depreciation and amortization, or with respect to EBITDA, the impact of the Company's tax provisions and financing strategies. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), this accounting presentation assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes at a level rate over time. Because of the unique structure, design and use of the Company's properties, management believes that assessing performance of the Company's properties without the impact of depreciation or amortization is useful. The Company may make adjustments to FFO from time to time for certain other income and expenses that it considers non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, even though such items may require cash settlement, because such items do not reflect a necessary or ordinary component of the ongoing operations of the Company. Normalized FFO excludes the effects of such items. The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income by adding to GAAP Net Income expenses associated with the Company's debt repayments and refinancing transactions, and certain impairments and other charges that the Company believes are unusual or non-recurring to provide an alternative measure of comparing operating performance for the periods presented.

Other companies may calculate Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO differently than the Company does, or adjust for other items, and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share measures are not measures of performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of the Company's operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. This data should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
