Jim Nygaard appointed EVP and CFO
Company: Core Scientific
What the later record shows
Delivered; the record does not say when
Later filings and releases list James Nygaard as Executive Vice President and CFO, with Denise Sterling as former CFO. No passage confirms he actually took office on March 17, 2025; P1 only records the Board's approval of that effective date.
“Todd M. DuChene 62 Executive Vice President, Chief Legal and Administrative Officer and Secretary James Nygaard 52 Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer”
