Techub News: Core Scientific announces the initial closing of a $500 million, 364-day loan financing provided by Morgan Stanley. The financing includes an incremental term, allowing the total commitment to be increased up to $500 million under customary terms and conditions, with the total commitment potentially reaching $1 billion.

Core Scientific expects that the proceeds from the borrowing under this financing arrangement will be used for general corporate purposes related to data center asset development, including but not limited to equipment purchase costs, pre-development costs, real estate acquisitions, and costs associated with obtaining and signing additional energy procurement agreements for data centers.
