The electric car and solar panel maker's board certified that Musk earned the big payout, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing says Musk can buy 1.69 million shares of Tesla stock for $350.02 each, but it wasn't clear whether he had exercised the stock options. His payout is based on the difference between the option price and Thursday's closing share price of $805.81.
All told, the incentives approved by Tesla's board in 2018 consist of 20.3 million stock options that will be doled out in 12 different bundles if the company is able to reach progressively more difficult financial goals. It's one of the biggest corporate pay packages in U.S. history. In order for Musk to receive all 20.3 million stock options, Tesla will have to generate adjusted annual earnings of $14 billion on annual revenue of $175 billion coupled with a market value of $650 billion. In the past four quarters, Tesla, which is based in Palo Alto, California, has reported adjusted earnings totalling $3.6 billion on revenue totalling $26 billion.
Stupidity
Good job! Now get the price of those cars down
And people in his factories are so happy for him
Backrupt by the end of 2021
If any shareholders of Tesla complains about that, then shame on them for not reading the publicly-available prospectus that would’ve disclosed that specific bonus distribution for meeting targets.
