Core Scientific, a Nasdaq-listed Bitcoin mining company, reported a net income of $580.7 million in Q1 2025, more than doubling its profit from $210.7 million in Q1 2024. This profit surge was mainly due to a $621.5 million non-cash mark-to-market adjustment on warrants, despite a revenue decline from $179.3 million to $79.5 million. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, and amortization showed a loss of $6.1 million compared to an $88 million gain the previous year. The company’s revenue primarily comes from digital asset activities, including $67.2 million from self-mining and $3.8 million from digital asset hosting, while high-performance compute hosting revenue dropped by $25.6 million. Core Scientific signed a deal with blockchain firm CoreWeave to provide 250MW capacity by the end of next year, expected to generate $360 million in revenue. The company emerged from bankruptcy last year, with shareholders receiving 60% of new equity and agreeing to debt repayment and warrant arrangements. CEO Adam Sullivan highlighted the company’s transformation and strategic positioning in modern computing.
