What the Analysts think about CoreCivic
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for CoreCivic stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
CoreCivic beat Q2 2025 expectations, reporting revenue of $538.2 million (up 9.8% year-over-year), adjusted EPS of $0.36 (up 80%), and adjusted EBITDA of $103.3 million (up 23.2%) (Reuters via TradingView).
The Republican tax-cut and spending package commits an unprecedented $170 billion to immigration enforcement, including $45 billion earmarked for detention capacity, greatly boosting demand for CoreCivic’s existing and idle bed inventories without requiring new constructions (Reuters).
CoreCivic continues to grow its portfolio via acquisitions and facility reactivations, finalizing the $67 million purchase of the 736-bed Farmville Detention Center (expected to generate $40 million in new annual revenues) and bringing additional idle facilities back online to serve rising ICE needs (CoreCivic Q2 2025 Release).
Regulatory and legal obstacles remain a challenge for CoreCivic’s growth, as the City of Leavenworth has filed a lawsuit to prevent the reopening of its Midwest Regional Reception Center without obtaining a special-use permit, delaying the realization of $4.2 million in expected monthly revenue under its ICE contract (AP News).
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) concerns create funding headwinds, underscored by Norway’s $70 billion pension fund divesting its position in CoreCivic over 'unacceptable' human-rights practices at its detention centers (Bloomberg).
Around 20% of CoreCivic’s earnings depend on ICE contracts, exposing the company to significant risk from changes in government detention policies or federal budget reallocations, which could sharply cut into its primary revenue base (Wall Street Journal).
