Core Scientific (NASDAQ: CORZ) has filed for voluntary reorganization under Chapter 11 due to declining operational performance and liquidity challenges. The restructuring support agreement with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group aims to reduce funded debt and annual interest expenses significantly. The company anticipates a debtor-in-possession facility of up to $56 million to facilitate operations during this period. Despite these challenges, Core Scientific will continue its self-mining and hosting operations, maintaining a cash flow-positive status on a debt-free basis.
B. Riley Financial, one of the largest creditors of Core Scientific, is proposing a debt restructuring plan to avoid bankruptcy, which they believe would destruct value for all stakeholders. Following Core's significant share price drop (86% to $0.15), B. Riley suggests providing $72 million in new financing. This plan aims to stabilize the company and enhance liquidity. It includes restructuring terms that would allow Core to service its debts, particularly in light of fluctuating Bitcoin prices, which directly impact Core Scientific's financial health.
