On April 21, the company disclosed that its wholly owned subsidiary, Core Scientific Finance I, would privately offer senior secured notes due 2031, with an aggregate principal amount of $ 3.3 billion. The company is expected to utilize these net proceeds to fund the debt service reserve account, while the excess proceeds will be distributed to Core Scientific.
Core Scientific is also expected to utilize part of the net proceeds for settling its outstanding delayed draw term loans within the 364-day credit facility agreement.
