Current report

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, or OBBBA. OBBBA appropriates a total of $75 billion in mandatory funding to ICE for immigration enforcement activities and to increase detention capacity. Specifically, OBBBA appropriates $45 billion for single adult alien detention capacity and family residential center capacity. This funding is a significant increase in funding historically provided to ICE for border security and immigration detention. The funding will remain available through September 30, 2029, and is in addition to base annual appropriations during that time period.

Current report

Average daily compensated population increased 2,485, or 4.8%, to 54,026 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 51,541 during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Average daily compensated population increased 876, or 1.7%, to 52,735 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 51,859 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in average daily compensated population in both periods was primarily a result of an increase in occupancy at facilities other than the Dilley Facility where ICE is our federal partner, as further discussed hereinafter, and as a result of two new management contracts with the state of

Current report

The increase in operating expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 when compared with the same periods in 2024 was also partially offset by $8.3 million and $11.0 million of employee retention credits, or ERCs, recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The ERCs were made available to eligible businesses that had employees and were affected during the COVID-19 pandemic under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, which was signed into law in March 2020 and was extended through June 30, 2021. The CARES Act, among other things, incentivized companies to retain employees through an ERC, which compensates employers for wages of employees that were retained and could not perform their job duties at 100% capacity as a result of coronavirus pandemic restrictions. The increase in operating expenses in the six-month period was also partially offset by the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024.

Current report

On June 10, 2025, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the Farmville Detention Center, a 736-bed facility located in Farmville, Virginia. The transaction, amounting to a gross purchase price of $67.0 million excluding transaction costs, was consummated on July 1, 2025, through the acquisition of 100% of the membership interests in entities that owned and operated the facility. The Farmville Detention Center provides transportation, care, and civil detention services to adult male non-citizens through an IGSA with ICE, which expires in March 2029, and is expected to result in total annual incremental revenue of approximately $40.0 million.

Current report

On May 3, 2024, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of an idle non-core facility in Live Oak, California. The facility was classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2025, and is expected to close in the second half of 2025. We incurred facility net operating losses at this facility of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Current report

On May 14, 2025, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of our idle 60-bed Columbine Facility in Denver, Colorado. The reentry center was classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2025, and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025. The Columbine facility incurred idle operating costs of only $32,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report

As of June 30, 2025, we had cash on hand of $130.5 million, and $216.4 million available under our Revolving Credit Facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated $141.2 million and $138.4 million, respectively, in cash through operating activities. We currently expect to be able to meet our cash expenditure requirements for the next year and beyond utilizing cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2025, we have no debt maturities until October 2027.

Current report

Our cash flow is subject to the receipt of sufficient funding of and timely payment by contracting governmental entities. If the appropriate governmental agency does not receive sufficient appropriations to cover its contractual obligations, it may terminate our contract or delay or reduce payment to us. Delays in payment from our major customers, which could include the deferral of payments to us during government shutdowns, or the termination of contracts from our major customers could have an adverse effect on our cash flow and financial condition. We have not experienced any unusual delays in payments from our major customers.

Previous wording

We are the nation's largest owner of partnership correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities and one of the largest operators of such facilities in the United States. As of March 31, 2025, through our CoreCivic Safety segment, we operated 43 correctional and detention facilities, 39 of which we owned or controlled via a long-term lease, with a total design capacity of approximately 65,000 beds. Through our CoreCivic Community segment, we operated 21 residential reentry centers, which we owned or controlled via a long-term lease, with a total design capacity of approximately 4,000 beds. In addition, through our CoreCivic Properties segment, we owned 6 properties, with a total design capacity of approximately 10,000 beds.

Through our CoreCivic Community segment, we owned and operated 21 residential reentry centers, which we owned or controlled via a long-term lease, with a total design capacity of approximately 4,000 beds. In addition, through our CoreCivic Properties segment, we owned 5 properties, with a total design capacity of approximately 8,000 beds.

Previous wording

Further, on January 29, 2025, President Trump signed into law the Laken Riley Act, which had been passed by Congress with bipartisan support on January 22, 2025. The Laken Riley Act requires ICE to detain certain non-United States nationals who have been charged, arrested, or convicted of crimes including burglary, theft, assault of a law enforcement officer, as well as killing or injuring another person. ICE has estimated that the mandatory detention requirement of the Laken Riley Act could require 60,000 to 110,000 additional detention beds.

ICE has estimated that the mandatory detention requirement of the Laken Riley Act could require more than 60,000 additional detention beds.

Previous wording

Given the recent legislative and executive actions mentioned above, we believe the short-term growth opportunities of our business are particularly attractive as federal government agencies consider their emergent needs. ICE has begun to utilize additional bed capacity in our portfolio at facilities with existing contracts, and we have been in discussion with ICE to activate certain of our idle facilities. As of March 31, 2025, we had nine idle correctional facilities that are operated with a core staffing complement to remain currently available and, unless noted below as under letter agreement, being actively marketed as solutions to the correctional or detention needs of potential customers. In some cases we have executed short-term letter agreements authorizing us to begin activation efforts while a longer-term contract is negotiated. The number of people we care for under contracts with ICE has increased by over 2,000 from the beginning of the year through March 31, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, we entered into contract modifications at our 2,016-bed Northeast Ohio Correctional Center in Youngstown, Ohio, our 1,072-bed Nevada Southern Detention Center in Pahrump, Nevada, and our 1,600-bed Cimarron Correctional Facility in Cushing, Oklahoma to collectively add capacity for up to 784 ICE detainees. In addition, on March 5, 2025, we announced that we had agreed under an amendment to an intergovernmental service agreement, or IGSA, to resume operations and care for up to 2,400 individuals at the 2,400-bed Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Dilley, Texas, or the Dilley Facility, formerly known as the South Texas Family Residential Center. The amended IGSA expires in March 2030 and may be further extended through bilateral modification. We began receiving residents at this facility during April 2025. Previously, after nearly ten years of operation, we received notification from ICE on June 10, 2024 of its intent to terminate funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. We did not operate the Dilley Facility from August 9, 2024 until the resumption of operations at the facility on March 5, 2025. Also, effective March 7, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement with ICE to begin activation efforts at our 1,033-bed Midwest Regional Reception Center in Leavenworth, Kansas. The letter agreement authorizes initial funding up to $5.0 million with maximum funding up to $22.6 million for a six-month period while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract. The City of Leavenworth has filed a lawsuit alleging that a Special Use Permit, or SUP, is required to activate the facility. See Note 7 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the pending litigation. Subsequent to the period ending March 31, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement with ICE to begin activation efforts at our 2,560-bed California City Immigration Processing Center, or the California City…

Previous wording

While we believe the legislative and executive actions mentioned above will create long-term needs from our federal partners, we also believe the long-term growth opportunities of our business remain attractive as state and county government agencies consider the efficiency and offender programming opportunities we provide as flexible solutions to satisfy their needs. We have been in discussions with several state and county government agencies that have experienced challenges in staffing their public-sector facilities and are seeking solutions from the private sector. Further, several of our existing government partners, as well as prospective government partners, have been experiencing growth in offender populations and overcrowded conditions. Governments are continuing to assess their need for correctional space, and several are continuing to consider alternative correctional capacity for their aged or inefficient infrastructure, or are seeking cost savings by utilizing the private sector, which could result in increased future demand for the solutions we provide. For example, during the second half of 2023, we signed new management contracts with Hinds County (MS), the state of Wyoming, and Harris County (TX) for up to 850 offenders at our 2,672-bed Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility in Tutwiler, Mississippi. In addition to the contracts with Hinds County, the state of Wyoming, and Harris County, we currently care for residents from the USMS, the state of Vermont, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Tallahatchie County at the Tallahatchie facility, which demonstrates the flexible solutions that we provide. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2023, we announced that we signed a management contract with the state of Montana to care for up to 120 inmates at our 1,896-bed Saguaro Correctional Facility in Eloy, Arizona. On August 1, 2024, we entered into a second new management contract with the state of Montana to care for an unspecified number of inmates at facilities we operate. As of March 31, 2025, we cared for 365 inmates from the state of Montana at our Saguaro facility. We also care for residents from the state of Hawaii and the state of Idaho at the Saguaro facility. On January 16, 2025, we announced that we were awarded another new management contract with the state of Montana to care for additional inmates outside the state of Montana and further expanding the geographic area of facilities we can provide to the State, with 240 inmates arriving at our Tallahatchie facility during the first quarter of 2025. We also manage the fully occupied company-owned Crossroads Correctional Center in Shelby, Montana for the state of Montana pursuant to a separate management contract.

Previous wording

A key performance indicator we use to measure the revenue and expenses associated with the operation of the correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities we own or manage is expressed in terms of a compensated man-day, which represents the revenue we generate and expenses we incur for one offender for one calendar day. Revenue and expenses per compensated man-day are computed by dividing facility revenue and expenses by the total number of compensated man-days during the period. A compensated man-day represents a calendar day for which we are paid for the occupancy of an offender. We believe the measurement is useful because we are compensated for operating and managing facilities at an offender per diem rate based upon actual or minimum guaranteed occupancy levels. We also measure our costs on a per compensated man-day basis, which are largely dependent upon the number of offenders we accommodate. Further, per compensated man-day measurements are also used to estimate our potential profitability based on certain occupancy levels relative to design capacity. Revenue and expenses per compensated man-day for all of the correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities placed into service that we owned or managed, exclusive of those held for lease, and for TransCor were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

Previous wording

The $3.7 million, or 0.8%, decrease in total management revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024 was primarily a result of a decrease in revenue of $12.0 million driven by a decrease in average daily compensated population from 2024 to 2025, including the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024. The decrease in average daily compensated population was primarily driven by the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the facility on March 5, 2025. The decrease in revenue resulting from the decline in average daily compensated population was partially offset by an increase in revenue of $8.6 million driven by an increase of 1.8% in average revenue per compensated man-day. The increase in average revenue per compensated man-day primarily resulted from the effect of per diem increases at many of our facilities. Revenue generated from our electronic monitoring and case management services during the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased $0.3 million (from $8.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $8.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025).

Current wording

Total management revenue increased $47.8 million, or 9.8%, and $44.1 million, or 4.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared with the same periods in 2024. The increase in total management revenue in both the three- and six-month periods was primarily a result of an increase in revenue of $24.6 million and $33.5 million, respectively, driven primarily by an increase of 4.9% and 3.5%, respectively, in average revenue per compensated man-day. The increase in average revenue per compensated man-day in both periods primarily resulted from the effect of per diem increases at many of our facilities. In addition, the revenue resulting from the letter agreements with ICE at our California City Facility and our Midwest Regional Reception Center, as previously described herein, also contributed to the increase in revenue per compensated man-day. The increase in total management revenue in both the three- and six-month periods was also a result of an increase in revenue of $23.0 million and $10.8 million, respectively, driven by an increase in average daily compensated population from 2024 to 2025, net, in the six-month period, of the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024. The increase in average daily compensated population from 2024 to 2025 was partially offset in both periods by the effect of the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. However, the IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the facility on March 5, 2025. Revenue generated from our electronic monitoring and case management services during the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased $0.2 million (from $8.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $9.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025). Revenue generated from our electronic monitoring and case management services during the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $0.2 million (from $17.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $17.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025).

Previous wording

Average daily compensated population decreased 747, or 1.4%, to 51,429 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 52,176 during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in average daily compensated population was primarily a result of the termination of funding of an IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025. Average compensated populations decreased by 2,112 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 attributable to the termination of funding of the IGSA at the Dilley Facility. The decrease in average daily compensated population was partially offset by increased occupancy at other facilities where ICE is our federal partner, as further discussed hereinafter, and as a result of two new management contracts with the state of Montana. In August 2024, we entered into a contract with the state of Montana which contributed to an increase in populations held at our Saguaro Correctional Facility. In addition, on January 16, 2025, we announced that we were awarded a new management contract with the state of Montana to care for additional inmates outside the state of Montana, with 240 inmates arriving at our Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility during the first quarter of 2025.

Current wording

Montana. In August 2024, we entered into a contract with the state of Montana which contributed to an increase in populations held at our Saguaro Correctional Facility. In addition, on January 16, 2025, we announced that we were awarded a new management contract with the state of Montana to care for additional inmates outside the state of Montana. During the first six months of 2025, we cared for an average daily population of 189 inmates at our Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility in Mississippi under this new contract. The increase in average daily compensated population in both periods was partially offset by the effect of the termination of funding of an IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025. Average compensated populations decreased by 1,129 and 1,618 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024 attributable to the termination of funding of the IGSA at the Dilley Facility. Average compensated occupancy in our Safety and Community segments increased to 76.8% from 74.3% during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and to 76.9% from 74.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These increases in occupancy occurred despite an increase in average available beds due to the activation and transfer of our 2,560-bed California City Facility from the Properties segment to the Safety segment effective April 1, 2025. We did not receive any ICE detainees at our California City Facility during the three- or six-month periods ended June 30, 2025.

Previous wording

The solutions we provide to our federal customers, including primarily ICE and the USMS, continue to be a significant component of our business. The federal customers in our Safety and Community segments generated approximately 49% and 52% of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, decreasing $21.1 million, or 8.0%, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease in federal revenue was primarily a result of the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility in August 2024, and as a result of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024. The decrease in federal revenue was partially offset by the increased occupancy and per diem increases at certain facilities, particularly those where we have contracts with ICE, as well as the resumption of operations at the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025.

Current wording

The solutions we provide to our federal customers, including primarily ICE and the USMS, continue to be a significant component of our business. The federal customers in our Safety and Community segments generated approximately 53% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, increasing $28.8 million, or 11.1%, during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024. The federal customers in our Safety and Community segments generated approximately 52% and 53% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, increasing $7.7 million, or 1.5%, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024. The increase in federal revenue was primarily a result of increased occupancy and per diem increases at certain facilities, particularly those where we have contracts with ICE. The increase in federal revenue in both periods was partially offset by the effect of the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility in August 2024, and, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024.

Previous wording

State revenues from contracts at correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities that we operate increased $9.8 million, or 5.2%, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024. State revenues increased as a result of per diem increases under a number of our state contracts, as certain states have recognized the need to provide additional funding to address increases in the wages of our employees. State revenues also increased due to higher utilization from the state of Montana resulting from two new management contracts executed during 2024 and 2025, as previously described herein, as well as higher utilization from other states under existing management contracts. The increase in state revenues was partially offset by the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024.

Current wording

State revenues from contracts at correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities that we operate increased $9.9 million, or 5.2%, from the second quarter of 2024 to the second quarter of 2025. State revenues increased $19.7 million, or 5.2%, from the six months ended June 30, 2024 to the comparable period in 2025. State revenues in both periods increased as a result of per diem increases under a number of our state contracts, as certain states have recognized the need to provide additional funding to address increases in the wages of our employees. State revenues also increased due to higher utilization from the state of Montana resulting from two new management contracts executed during 2024 and 2025, as previously described herein, as well as higher utilization from other states under existing management contracts. The increase in state revenues in the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, was partially offset by the effect of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024.

Previous wording

The $8.4 million, or 64.6%, decrease in lease revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared with the same period in 2024 primarily resulted from the termination of the lease agreement at our California City Facility effective March 31, 2024.

Current wording

The $8.1 million, or 46.6%, decrease in lease revenue from the six months ended June 30, 2024 to the comparable period in 2025 primarily resulted from the termination of the lease agreement at our California City Facility effective March 31, 2024.

Previous wording

Operating expenses totaled $374.7 million and $378.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Operating expenses consist of those expenses incurred in the operation and management of correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities, as well as those expenses incurred in the operations of TransCor and our electronic monitoring and case management services. Operating expenses also consist of those expenses incurred in the operation of facilities we lease to third-party operators.

Current wording

Operating expenses totaled $398.3 million and $375.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, while operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 totaled $773.1 million and $753.8 million, respectively. Operating expenses consist of those expenses incurred in the operation and management of correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities, as well as those expenses incurred in the operations of TransCor and our electronic monitoring and case management services. Operating expenses also consist of those expenses incurred in the operation of facilities we lease to third-party operators.

Previous wording

The decrease in operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when compared with the same period in 2024 was also the result of one less day of operations due to a leap year in 2024. The decrease in operating expenses was partially offset by wage increases across our portfolio. We achieved higher staffing levels during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when compared to the same period in 2024 as we continued to see improvement in our attraction and retention of facility staff in this challenging labor market. In addition, wages have increased as a result of an increase in our overall staffing levels in response to the increasing demand from the federal government for capacity at our correctional and detention facilities, particularly from ICE, due to recent changes in immigration policies under the new presidential administration.

Current wording

2025, when compared to the same period in 2024. Operating expenses in both the three- and six-month periods increased primarily as a result of wage increases across our portfolio. We achieved higher staffing levels during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the same periods in 2024 as we continued to see improvement in our attraction and retention of facility staff in the current labor market. In addition, wages have increased as a result of an increase in our overall staffing levels in response to the increasing demand from the federal government for capacity at our correctional and detention facilities, particularly from ICE, due to recent changes in immigration policies under the current presidential administration. Further, operating expenses increased from the prior year periods as a result of the letter agreements with ICE enabling us to begin activation efforts at our California City Facility and our Midwest Regional Reception Center, as previously described herein, and due to an increase in transportation services expense, which corresponds with the increased populations at certain of our facilities, as well as an overall increase in transportation needs from ICE.

Previous wording

Operating expenses incurred by CoreCivic Safety and CoreCivic Community in connection with the operation and management of our correctional, detention, and residential reentry facilities, as well as those incurred in the operations of TransCor and our electronic monitoring and case management services, decreased $2.6 million, or 0.7%, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when compared with the same period in 2024. Operating expenses decreased primarily as a result of the termination of funding of an IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. We leased the Dilley Facility and the site upon which it was constructed from a third-party lessor. The original lease agreement provided us with the ability to terminate the lease with a notification period of at least 60 days if ICE terminated the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility. Upon being notified on June 10, 2024 by ICE of its intent to terminate the funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility, we provided notice to the third-party lessor of our intent to terminate the lease agreement effective August 9, 2024, at which time we had no further lease or material other operating expense commitments associated with the Dilley Facility. However, the IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the facility on March 5, 2025. Simultaneous with the March 5, 2025 amendment of the IGSA and resumption of operations at the Dilley Facility, we entered into a new lease agreement with the same third-party lessor over a period co-terminus with the term of the amended IGSA. The new lease agreement contains a graduated lease rate over the first six months consistent with the amended IGSA to correlate with the activation of the five neighborhoods within the facility, as further described hereinafter.

Current wording

The increase in operating expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 when compared with the same periods in 2024 was partially offset by the effect of the termination of funding of an IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024.

Previous wording

Total expenses per compensated man-day increased to $78.47 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $76.94 during the three months ended March 31, 2024. We continue to experience labor shortages and wage pressures in several markets across the country and have provided customary inflationary wage increases to remain competitive. Although the hiring environment has progressively improved since the COVID-19 pandemic, recruiting remains particularly challenging due to the front-line nature of the services we provide and the challenging labor market. Further, we have incurred incremental expenses to help ensure sufficient staffing levels under unique and challenging working conditions. While we have been able to reduce the use of these temporary incentives due to the improving hiring environment, we expect to continue to incur a certain level of incremental expenses in the future, particularly as demand from the federal government for capacity at our correctional and detention facilities is increasing, particularly from ICE. Incremental expenses include, but may not be limited to, incentive payments to our front-line and field staff, temporary employee housing expenses and other travel related reimbursements, additional paid time off, off-cycle wage increases in certain markets to remain competitive, and registry nursing expenses. These incremental investments have enabled us to increase overall staffing levels, which has contributed to the increase in total expenses per compensated man-day. The increase in total expenses per compensated man-day includes the effect of the termination of the funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility in March 2025.

Current wording

Total expenses per compensated man-day increased to $78.78 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $77.53 during the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased to $78.63 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $77.23 during the same period in the prior year. We continue to experience labor shortages and wage pressures in several markets across the country and have provided customary inflationary wage increases to remain competitive. Although the hiring environment has progressively improved since the COVID-19 pandemic, recruiting remains particularly challenging at certain facilities in particular geographic locations, resulting in incremental expenses to help ensure sufficient staffing levels. While we have been able to reduce the use of these temporary incentives at most facilities due to the improving hiring environment, we expect to continue to incur a certain level of incremental expenses in the future, particularly as demand from the federal government for capacity at our correctional and detention facilities is increasing, particularly from ICE. Incremental expenses include, but may not be limited to, incentive payments to our front-line and field staff, temporary employee housing expenses and other travel related reimbursements, additional paid time off, off-cycle wage increases in certain markets to remain competitive, and registry nursing expenses. These incremental investments have enabled us to increase overall staffing levels, which has contributed to the increase in total expenses per compensated man-day. Further, expenses per compensated man-day increased from the prior year periods as a result of the letter agreements with ICE at our California City Facility and our Midwest Regional Reception Center. The increase in total expenses per compensated man-day in both periods includes the effect of the termination of the funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility in March 2025. These incremental operating expenses were partially offset by the ERCs, as previously mentioned.

Previous wording

We continually monitor compensation levels very closely along with overall economic conditions and will adjust wage levels necessary to help ensure the long-term success of our business. Further, we continually evaluate the structure of our employee benefits package and training programs to ensure we are better able to attract and retain our employees. Salaries and benefits represent the most significant component of our operating expenses, representing approximately 63% and 62% of our total operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As previously mentioned, recruiting and retaining staff has been particularly challenging for us and for the corrections and detention industry as a whole. An inability to attract and retain sufficient personnel could prevent us from caring for additional residential populations for government agencies in need of additional capacity due to an increase in populations or an inability to adequately staff their facilities. An inability to attract and retain sufficient personnel in our existing facilities could also cause our government partners to assess liquidated damages, reduce our residential populations, or in certain circumstances, cancel our contracts. We have also been subjected to revenue deductions for staff vacancies as a result of the labor shortages, which are reflected as reductions to other management revenue. Estimating revenue deduction amounts due to staff vacancies can be complex and subject to management judgment and estimations. Some of our government partners have granted waivers for revenue deductions for staff vacancies in recognition of the unique and challenging labor market, while others have discretionarily adjusted such deductions based on our extraordinary costs, efforts and incentive programs implemented to attract and retain staff.

Previous wording

Variable expenses per compensated man-day increased to $20.84 during the three months ended March 31, 2025, from $20.21 during the same period in the prior year, an increase of 3.1%. The increase in variable expenses per compensated man-day was primarily due to the effect of an elevated inflation rate applicable to all of our variable expenses, partially offset by the effect of the termination of the funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025. In addition, variable expenses per compensated man-day increased from the prior year quarter due to an increase in transportation services expense, which corresponds with the increased populations at certain of our facilities, as well as an overall increase in transportation needs from ICE.

Current wording

Variable expenses per compensated man-day increased to $21.38 during the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $20.64 during the same period in the prior year, or 3.6%, and increased to $21.12 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $20.42 during the same period in the prior year, or 3.4%. The increase in variable expenses per compensated man-day in both periods was primarily due to the effect of an elevated inflation rate applicable to all of our variable expenses, partially offset by the effect of the termination of the funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility effective August 9, 2024. The IGSA was subsequently amended and operations resumed at the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025.

Previous wording

Operating expenses incurred by CoreCivic Properties in connection with facilities we lease to third-party operators decreased $0.7 million, or 18.6%, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily a result of the termination of the lease agreement at our California City Facility effective March 31, 2024. We currently expect that the California City Facility will transition from our Properties segment to our Safety segment during the second quarter of 2025, as we have entered into a letter agreement with ICE for a six-month period to begin activation efforts while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract to operate the facility.

Current wording

Operating expenses incurred by CoreCivic Properties in connection with facilities we lease to third-party operators decreased $2.0 million, or 27.8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 when compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily a result of the termination of the lease agreement at our California City Facility effective March 31, 2024. The California City Facility transitioned from our Properties segment to our Safety segment during the second quarter of 2025, as we have entered into a letter agreement with ICE for a six-month period to begin activation efforts while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract to operate the facility.

Previous wording

Our management contract at the 300-bed Elizabeth Detention Center in New Jersey is currently scheduled to expire on May 31, 2025. ICE has issued a request for proposal, or RFP, for up to 600 beds in New Jersey. We have offered the Elizabeth Detention Center under this RFP but can provide no assurance that we will be awarded a new contract under this RFP. We generated total revenue of $5.6 million and $19.6 million at this facility during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, respectively.

Current wording

Our management contract at the 300-bed Elizabeth Detention Center in New Jersey has been extended numerous times including most recently through June 30, 2025. We continue to operate the facility under the terms of this extended contract. ICE has issued a request for proposal, or RFP, for up to 600 beds in New Jersey. We have offered the Elizabeth Detention Center under this RFP. We continue to discuss the terms of a long-term contract with ICE, but can provide no assurance that we will be awarded a new contract, or that ICE will continue to sign extensions. We generated total revenue of $5.7 million and $11.3 million at this facility during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. At June 30, 2025, we cared for approximately 345 detainees at this facility under terms of the most recently extended contract.

CoreCivic Safety includes the operating results of the correctional and detention facilities that we operated during each period. Total revenue generated by CoreCivic Safety decreased $3.6 million, or 0.8%, from $457.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $454.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. CoreCivic Safety's facility net operating income decreased $1.4 million, or 1.3%, from $107.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 to $106.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, CoreCivic Safety generated 91.7% of our total segment net operating income, compared with 86.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Current wording

CoreCivic Safety includes the operating results of the correctional and detention facilities that we operated during each period. Total revenue generated by CoreCivic Safety increased $48.0 million, or 10.5%, from $455.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $503.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, and increased $44.4 million, or 4.9%, from $913.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $957.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. CoreCivic Safety's facility net operating income increased $23.4 million, or 21.8%, from $107.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $130.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, and increased $22.0 million or 10.2% from $214.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $236.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, CoreCivic Safety generated 92.1% and 91.9%, respectively, of our total segment net operating income, compared with 92.1% and 89.1%, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Previous wording

The negative impact on operating margins resulting from the termination of funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility was offset to some extent during the three months ended March 31, 2025 by the effect of per diem increases at many of our facilities. We have received per diem increases as a result of additional government appropriations funding to address increases in the wages of our employees. Revenue per compensated man-day also increased during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when compared to the same period in 2024, as a result of a change in our mix of business. Operating margin was negatively impacted by increased operating expenses per compensated man-day primarily associated with incremental staffing levels, higher wage rates, other staffing related expenses, and inflationary increases in variable expenses. As previously described herein, we have experienced labor shortages and wage pressures in many markets across the country and have provided inflationary wage increases above historical averages to remain competitive. In addition, wages have increased as a result of an increase in our overall staffing levels as the demand from the federal government for capacity at our correctional and detention facilities, particularly from ICE, has increased under recent changes in immigration policies under the new presidential administration. Further, we have incurred incremental expenses to help ensure sufficient staffing levels under unique and challenging working conditions, including but not limited to, shift incentive bonuses, recruiting and retention bonuses, temporary employee housing expenses and travel reimbursements, off-cycle wage increases, as well as relocation incentives. While we were able to reduce the use of these temporary incentives during 2024, we expect to continue to incur a certain level of additional incremental expenses in future quarters and may be required to increase certain incentives again as the demand for labor in our industry is increasing. We expect to continue to invest in staffing resources to meet this increasing demand.

Current wording

Operating margins in the CoreCivic Safety segment have been positively impacted by per diem increases at many of our facilities. We have received per diem increases as a result of additional government appropriations funding to address increases in the wages of our employees. Revenue per compensated man-day also increased during both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the same periods in 2024 as a result of a change in our mix of business. Operating margins were also positively impacted by ERCs in the Safety segment amounting to $7.9 million and $10.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The positive impact on operating margins in both periods was offset to some extent by increased operating expenses per compensated man-day primarily associated with incremental staffing levels, higher wage rates, other staffing related expenses, and inflationary increases in variable expenses. As previously described herein, we have experienced labor shortages and wage pressures in many markets across the country and have provided inflationary wage increases above historical averages to remain competitive.

We expect to continue to invest in staffing resources to meet this increasing demand.

Previous wording

Operating margins in the CoreCivic Safety segment have been negatively impacted by the termination of funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility, effective August 9, 2024. On June 10, 2024, we received notice from ICE of its intent to terminate funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility, effective August 9, 2024. As a result, we provided notice to the third-party lessor of the facility of our intent to terminate the lease effective as of the same date, with no financial penalties as permitted by the lease agreement. The operating margin at the Dilley Facility exceeded the average operating margin of our portfolio due to the size and scalability of expenses, and due to the unique design and specialized services provided at the facility. Accordingly, the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility had a negative impact on operating margins following the termination date. On March 5, 2025, we announced that we had agreed under an amendment to the IGSA to resume operations and care for up to 2,400 individuals at the Dilley Facility. The amended IGSA expires in March 2030 and may be further extended through bilateral modification. ICE may terminate the amended IGSA for convenience or non-appropriation of funds without penalty by providing us with at least a 60-day prior notice. The amended IGSA provides for a fixed monthly payment in accordance with a graduated schedule during the first six months of the agreement, subject to acceleration, to correlate with the activation of the five neighborhoods within the facility, each designed to accommodate up to 480 individuals. Total annual revenue generated by the Dilley Facility, once fully activated, is expected to be approximately $180 million. Simultaneously, we entered into a new lease agreement with the same third-party lessor over a period co-terminus with the term of the IGSA. The new lease also contains a graduated lease rate over the first six months consistent with the IGSA to correlate with the activation of the five neighborhoods within the facility. Remaining terms of the amended IGSA and lease agreement with the third-party lessor are substantially similar to the previous agreements, except that we will also provide onsite medical care at the facility. The new lease agreement provides us with the ability to terminate the lease if ICE terminates the amended IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility upon at least a 60-day prior notice.

Current wording

The positive impact on operating margins resulting from per diem increases and the ERCs was also partially offset by the effect of the termination of funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility, effective August 9, 2024. On June 10, 2024, we received notice from ICE of its intent to terminate funding of the IGSA for services at the Dilley Facility, effective August 9, 2024. As a result, we provided notice to the third-party lessor of the facility of our intent to terminate the lease effective as of the same date, with no financial penalties as permitted by the lease agreement. The operating margin at the Dilley Facility exceeded the average operating margin of our portfolio due to the size and scalability of expenses, and due to the unique design and specialized services provided at the facility. Accordingly, the termination of funding of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility had a negative impact on operating margins following the termination date. On March 5, 2025, we announced that we had agreed under an amendment to the IGSA to resume operations and care for up to 2,400 individuals at the Dilley Facility. The amended IGSA expires in March 2030 and may be further extended through bilateral modification. ICE may terminate the amended IGSA for convenience or non-appropriation of funds without penalty by providing us with at least a 60-day prior notice. The amended IGSA provides for a fixed monthly payment in accordance with a graduated schedule during the first six months of the agreement, subject to acceleration, to correlate with the activation of the five neighborhoods within the facility, each designed to accommodate up to 480 individuals. Total annual revenue generated by the Dilley Facility, once fully activated, is expected to be approximately $180 million. Simultaneously, we entered into a new lease agreement with the same third-party lessor over a period co-terminus with the term of the IGSA. The new lease also contains a graduated lease rate over the first six months consistent with the IGSA to correlate with the activation of the five neighborhoods within the facility. Remaining terms of the amended IGSA and lease agreement with the third-party lessor are substantially similar to the previous agreements, except that we will also provide onsite medical care at the facility. The new lease agreement provides us with the ability to terminate the lease if ICE terminates the amended IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility upon at least a 60-day prior notice.

Previous wording

We currently expect demand from the federal government for correctional and detention facilities in our Safety segment to further increase under the new presidential administration, particularly from ICE, as a result of changes in immigration policy and funding levels of our federal government partners charged with correctional and detention responsibilities, as previously described herein. This anticipated increase in demand could result in higher utilization of our available capacity under existing contracts, as well as through new contracts utilizing our idle correctional and detention facilities or our other existing capacity. For example, in addition to the resumption of the IGSA associated with the Dilley Facility on March 5, 2025, during the first quarter of 2025, we entered into contract modifications at our 2,016-bed Northeast Ohio Correctional Center in Youngstown, Ohio, our 1,072-bed Nevada Southern Detention Center in Pahrump, Nevada, and our 1,600-bed Cimarron Correctional Facility in Cushing, Oklahoma to collectively add capacity for up to 784 ICE detainees. However, we can provide no assurance that the federal government will continue to increase the utilization of our available capacity. Further, the activation of our idle correctional and detention facilities generally requires four to six months to hire, train, and prepare our facilities to accept residential populations, which, depending on the contract structure, could result in substantial expenses before we are able to realize additional revenue.

On August 1, 2024, we entered into a management contract with the state of Montana to care for an unspecified number of inmates at facilities we operate. The contract is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2026, and may be extended by mutual agreement for a total term of up to seven years. As of March 31, 2025, we cared for 365 inmates from the state of Montana at our Saguaro facility under this management contract, along with another similar contract with the state of Montana that was entered into during the fourth quarter of 2023. We also care for residents from the state of Hawaii and the state of Idaho at our Saguaro facility. On January 16, 2025, we announced that we were awarded a new management contract with the state of Montana to care for additional inmates outside the state of Montana, with 240 inmates arriving at our Tallahatchie facility during the first quarter of 2025. This latest contract expands the geographic range of our facilities that can serve the state of Montana where we also manage the fully occupied company-owned Crossroads Correctional Center in Shelby, Montana for the state of Montana pursuant to a separate management contract.

On December 6, 2022, we received notice from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, or CDCR, of its intent to terminate the lease agreement for our 2,560-bed California City Facility by March 31, 2024, due to the state's declining inmate population. The California City Facility was idled effective April 1, 2024. Rental revenue generated from the CDCR at the California City Facility was $8.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Facility net operating loss was $0.9 million and facility net operating income was $7.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, including carrying expenses we continue to incur post lease termination. Effective April 1, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement with ICE to begin activation efforts at the California City Facility. The letter agreement authorizes initial funding up to $10.0 million with maximum funding up to $31.2 million for a six-month period while we work to negotiate and execute a long-term contract. Because we are operating the facility rather than leasing it, we currently expect that the California City Facility will transition from our Properties segment to our Safety segment during the second quarter of 2025.

Previous wording

Operating margins in our CoreCivic Community segment were positively impacted during the first quarter of 2025 by an increase in average revenue per compensated man-day, which increased from the first quarter of 2024 primarily as a result of per diem increases at several of our facilities. The effect of the increased average revenue per compensated man-day was partially offset by increased operating expenses per man-day, which were driven primarily by higher wage rates and inflationary increases in variable expenses. Because facilities in our Community segment are typically smaller in size than those in our Safety segment, occupancy fluctuations have a larger impact on operating margin per compensated man-day. Accordingly, modest changes in occupancy can have a notable impact in our Community segment.

We have also been subjected to revenue deductions for staff vacancies as a result of the labor shortages, which are reflected as reductions to other management revenue. Estimating revenue deduction amounts due to staff vacancies can be complex and subject to management judgment and estimations. Some of our government partners have granted waivers for revenue deductions for staff vacancies in recognition of the unique and challenging labor market, while others have discretionarily adjusted such deductions based on our extraordinary costs, efforts and incentive programs implemented to attract and retain staff.

As previously described herein, on December 6, 2022, we received notice from the CDCR of its intent to terminate the lease agreement for our 2,560-bed California City Facility by March 31, 2024, due to the state's declining inmate population. The California City Facility was idled effective April 1, 2024. Effective April 1, 2025, we entered into a letter agreement with ICE to begin activation efforts at the California City Facility. Because we are now operating the facility rather than leasing it, the California City Facility transitioned from our Properties segment to our Safety segment during the second quarter of 2025. Rental revenue generated from the CDCR at the California City Facility was $8.6 million during the period the lease was active in 2024. Facility net operating loss was $1.1 million and facility net operating income was $6.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, including carrying expenses we continued to incur following the lease termination. Facility net operating loss was $0.9 million during the first quarter of 2025 at the California City Facility while the facility was still being reported in our Properties segment.

Further, we have internally approved $70.0 million to $75.0 million of capital expenditures representing an investment above and beyond our annual capital budget associated with previously idled facilities we are activating and for additional potential idle facility activations, in order to prepare these facilities to quickly accept residential populations if opportunities arise, as well as to provide increased transportation services. Through June 30, 2025, we have invested $30.7 million of capital expenditures related to facility activations and transportation vehicles. We could decide to incur additional capital expenditures in anticipation of additional activations if we have better visibility on specific needs and if the lead time to complete the capital expenditures exceeds the period needed to hire, train, and prepare a facility to accept residential populations.
