Forget margin or options. Here's how the pros trade CORZ

An announcement from Core Scientific Inc ( (CORZ) ) is now available.

Core Scientific reported fourth-quarter 2025 revenue of $79.8 million, down from $94.9 million a year earlier, as a sharp drop in bitcoin production weighed on digital asset self-mining revenue despite higher bitcoin prices. Colocation revenue, however, jumped to $31.3 million from $8.5 million, gross profit rose to $20.8 million, and net income swung to $216.0 million from a $291.1 million loss, driven largely by a non-cash fair value gain tied to warrant and contingent value right liabilities.

The company continued to pivot its business toward high-density colocation, energizing about 350 MW under its CoreWeave contract, planning to reach roughly 590 MW by early 2027, and securing a new Hunt County, Texas site expected to support about 430 MW while adding 300 MW of power capacity at existing locations. During the preparation of its 2025 financials following an auditor change, Core Scientific identified material errors in the capitalization of assets slated for demolition and will restate several 2024 and 2025 periods, a correction that does not affect revenue, adjusted EBITDA or net cash flows but may impact investor confidence in its historical reporting.

The most recent analyst rating on (CORZ) stock is a Buy with a $40.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Core Scientific Inc stock, see the CORZ Stock Forecast page.
