Tesla dodela i pravni zastoj
Tesla je dodelila Elonu Musku 96 miliona ograničenih deonica, procijenjenih na skoro 29 milijardi dolara, kao pokušaj da zadrži izvršnog direktora dok se traje pravni spor oko njegovog ranijeg paketa naknada.
Odluka dolazi nakon što je sud u Delawareu poništio prethodni paket vrijedan 56 milijardi, a bord kompanije pokušava da obnodi podršku dodelom privremenih akcija i povećanjem njegovih prava glasa.
"It is imperative to retain and motivate our extraordinary talent, beginning with Elon," the statement reads. "The war for AI talent is intensifying, with recent months including multi-billion-dollar acquisitions of companies and nine-figure cash compensation packages for non-founder, individual AI engineers."
Prodaja Tesle je u opadanju širom svijeta, a brend je narušen kontroverznim izjavama i djelovanjem Muska, dok osveženje Model Y nije povratilo raniji sjaj. Kompanija se preorijentisala ka razvoju robotaksi servisa i humanoidnog robota, što nosi velike rizike i troškove.
"As you know, Elon has not received meaningful compensation for eight years since the 2012 CEO Performance Award was last earned in 2017," the statement reads. "Despite overwhelming support from you in 2018 and again in 2024, our legal efforts continue in the Delaware courts to reinstate the 2018 CEO Performance Award. "
"continues to be in legal limbo despite two separate shareholder votes supporting it by large margins," the board wrote. "Furthermore, we have no clear timeline for resolution, as we are still waiting not only for a ruling."
Bord navodi da je Tesla u "critical inflection point," i da je prioritet "energizing and focusing Elon on Tesla" kroz "interim award" koji je "structured to incrementally increase his voting rights upon grant" kako bi se osigurala stabilnost upravljanja dok kompanija prolazi kroz krizu.
