Tesla Inc. Chief Executive Elon Musk may do another dance if the electric car maker’s stock rises a few more dollars and stays there a while, as he stands to receive stock options that could be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
With 180.24 million shares outstanding, as of Oct. 21, a $100 billion market cap would be reached at a stock price of $554.80, or 3.1% above Tuesday’s record closing price of $537.92. At that price, Musk could net roughly $346 million if he exercised the options and immediately sold the stock.See also: Elon Musk says his ‘NFSW’ dance was just an effort to gain Pornhub followers.
