How we checked this
Checked on October 10, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The deck states Core Scientific must fund $104M of capex for an additional 70 MW expansion, but this appears in a footnote to the CoreWeave contract summary, not in connection with AMD.
Confirmed in the source:
- Core Scientific is responsible for funding $104 million of capex for an additional 70 MW expansion
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The additional 70 MW expansion is an AMD expansion
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
What we did: Read our cached copy of IR page (investors.corescientific.com) (https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_eb9c314ac28438fbd39d12d91c4e5bdc/corescientific/db/1066/11282/pdf/Q2+FY26+earnings+deck+7.28+AM.pdf) in full (12,585 characters, retrieved September 1, 2026) and checked each assertion in the claim against it.
