CoreWeave, the AI Hyperscaler™, and Core Scientific, a leading data center infrastructure provider, today announced that they have signed a definitive agreement under which CoreWeave will acquire Core Scientific in an all-stock transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Core Scientific stockholders will receive 0.1235 newly issued shares of CoreWeave Class A common stock for each share of Core Scientific common stock based on a fixed exchange ratio.
Following CoreWeave’s successful IPO in March 2025, this acquisition will help CoreWeave verticalize its data center footprint to future-proof revenue growth and enhance profitability. Through this acquisition, CoreWeave will own approximately 1.3 GW of gross power across Core Scientific's national data center footprint with additional gross power available for incremental expansion.
“This acquisition accelerates our strategy to deploy AI and HPC workloads at scale,” said Michael Intrator, CoreWeave's Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board, and co-founder. “Verticalizing the ownership of Core Scientific’s high-performance data center infrastructure enables CoreWeave to significantly enhance operating efficiency and de-risk our future expansion, solidifying our growth trajectory. Owning this foundational layer of our platform will enhance our performance and expertise as we continue helping customers unleash AI’s full potential.”
