Announced on Friday, Nygaard will be joining Core Scientific after nearly 30 years of experience in investment banking, focusing on mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, and capital raising. Since 2008, he has been a managing director at XMS Capital Partners. Prior to that, he spent over a decade at Morgan Stanley, advising companies on major deals and growth strategies.

經過將近30年的投資銀行業務經驗，Nygaard將於週五宣布，重點是合併和收購，公司融資和資本籌集的經驗。自2008年以來，他一直是XMS Capital Partners的董事總經理。在此之前，他在摩根士丹利（Morgan Stanley）度過了十多年，為公司提供有關主要交易和增長策略的建議。

Bankruptcy and rebound

破產和反彈

Core Scientific filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2022 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas after facing a liquidity crisis.

核心科學在面臨流動性危機後，於2022年12月在2022年12月在美國南部地區的破產法院申請了第11章破產。

The company’s financial health deteriorated rapidly in 2022 due to a decline in Bitcoin price, rising energy costs, and increased competition in the mining industry.

由於比特幣價格下跌，能源成本上漲以及採礦業的競爭增加，該公司的財務狀況在2022年迅速惡化。

To survive, Core Scientific sold a portion of its Bitcoin holdings and secured a $70 million debtor-in-possession loan from B. Riley. However, the company also faced the bankruptcy of Celsius Mining, its largest hosting customer, which posed a significant setback.

為了生存，Core Scientific出售了其比特幣持有的一部分，並從B. Riley獲得了7000萬美元的債務人貸款。但是，該公司還面臨著最大的託管客戶Celsius Mining的破產，這造成了巨大的挫折。

Despite entering bankruptcy, Core Scientific continued its Bitcoin mining operations throughout the restructuring process and later secured an additional $600 million in financing from existing lenders to support its emergence from bankruptcy in May 2023.

儘管發生了破產，但核心科學在整個重組過程中繼續其比特幣採礦業務，後來從現有貸方獲得了6億美元的融資，以支持其2023年5月破產的出現。

The company also secured an oversubscribed $1 billion revolving credit facility from a syndicate of banks.

該公司還從銀行集團獲得了超額認購的10億美元循環信貸額度。
