Elon Musk Settles SEC Fraud Charges; Tesla Charged With and Resolves Securities Law Charge
Settlement Requires Musk to Step Down as Tesla’s Chairman; Tesla to Appoint Additional Independent Directors; Tesla and Musk Agree to Pay $40 million in Penalties
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2018-226

Washington D.C., Sept. 29, 2018 —
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that Elon Musk, CEO and Chairman of Silicon Valley-based Tesla, Inc., has agreed to settle the securities fraud charge brought by the SEC against him last week. The SEC also today charged Tesla with failing to have required disclosure controls and procedures relating to Musk’s tweets, a charge that Tesla has agreed to settle. The settlements, which are subject to court approval, will result in comprehensive corporate governance and other reforms at Tesla—including Musk’s removal as Chairman of the Tesla board—and the payment by Musk and Tesla of financial penalties.

According to the SEC’s complaint against him, Musk tweeted on August 7, 2018 that he could take Tesla private at $420 per share — a substantial premium to its trading price at the time — that funding for the transaction had been secured, and that the only remaining uncertainty was a shareholder vote. The SEC’s complaint alleged that, in truth, Musk knew that the potential transaction was uncertain and subject to numerous contingencies. Musk had not discussed specific deal terms, including price, with any potential financing partners, and his statements about the possible transaction lacked an adequate basis in fact. According to the SEC’s complaint, Musk’s misleading tweets caused Tesla’s stock price to jump by over six percent on August 7, and led to significant market disruption.

According to the SEC’s complaint against Tesla, despite notifying the market in 2013 that it intended to use Musk’s Twitter account as a means of announcing material information about Tesla and encouraging investors to review Musk’s tweets, Tesla had no disclosure controls or procedures in place to determine whether Musk’s tweets contained information required to be disclosed in Tesla’s SEC filings. Nor did it have sufficient processes in place to that Musk’s tweets were accurate or complete.

Musk and Tesla have agreed to settle the charges against them without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations. Among other relief, the settlements require that:

Musk will step down as Tesla’s Chairman and be replaced by an independent Chairman. Musk will be ineligible to be re-elected Chairman for three years;
Tesla will appoint a total of two new independent directors to its board;
Tesla will establish a new committee of independent directors and put in place additional controls and procedures to oversee Musk’s communications;
Musk and Tesla will each pay a separate $20 million penalty. The $40 million in penalties will be distributed to harmed investors under a court-approved process.
“The total package of remedies and relief announced today are specifically designed to address the misconduct at issue by strengthening Tesla’s corporate governance and oversight in order to protect investors,” said Stephanie Avakian, Co-Director of the SEC’s Enforcement Division.

“As a result of the settlement, Elon Musk will no longer be Chairman of Tesla, Tesla’s board will adopt important reforms —including an obligation to oversee Musk’s communications with investors—and both will pay financial penalties,” added Steven Peikin, Co-Director of the SEC’s Enforcement Division. “The resolution is intended to prevent further market disruption and harm to Tesla’s shareholders.”

The SEC’s investigation was conducted by Walker Newell, Brent Smyth, and Barrett Atwood and supervised by Steven Buchholz, Erin Schneider, and Jina Choi in the San Francisco Regional Office and Cheryl Crumpton in the SEC’s Home Office.

О, я как раз пару недель назад сказал, что Маска выгонят с "Теслы"

[Evgen]

в инвестирование блин. То ли шортать, то ли покупать

[M. Ridcully]

Ну уж прям "всё".
Ну чуток, временно, из Теслы потеснили.
Не стоит про SpaceX забывать, которая не publiс.

[Serguei666]

Покупайте. Маск им еще всем покажет

[Sergunka]

А причем здесь "Работа и Карьера в IT" ? Попросите модератора перенести тему в подходящий раздел.

Походу это единственный раздел "Работа и Карьера в IT" где можно поговорить спокойно

[АццкоМото]

Дык это... Он же остаётся СЕО

[worldCitizen]

Шортать сток, покупать пут спред.
Эта новость некоторыми рассматривается как умеренно положительная: мог загреметь за ##. К тому же, насколько я понимаю, он остается CEO. Поэтому логически, завтра ожидается небольшой отскок вверх.

Two words to never tweet, "Funding secured." The price for this - a few millions $

[ystar]

И не удивительно будет, если вместо Маска какой-нибудь индус придет, либо тип Куковской направленности....

В общем, кто будет командовать компанией вопрос серьезный. Очевидно что многие бывшие инженеры и другие работники компании рассматривают Маска как не самого удачного бизнесмена и менеджера.

[valchkou]

А может маск и КО все это преднамеренно провернули?
Чтобы сбить цену стока и все таки выкупить компанию но не по 420 а скажем по 210.
чет я сомневаюсь в его неадекватности, наивности и вообще в случайности всего происходящего

[Nostradamus]

Командовать компанией будет Маск, который остается СЕО. Борд вроде как остался тем же, только из него вывели Маска и хотят ввести независимого председателя и двух директоров. Я думаю что ничего не изменится, потому что Маск сможет контролировать борд как один из главных акционеров.

Какой то расчет на теневую прибыль наверняка был, но игра довольно рискованная. В общем, результаты деятельности компании не особо впечатляют, Производство авто вообще муторный бизнес.

а вы предложите свою кандидатуру. а то Кук какой-то.....

[Think_Different]

Маск - гений. Ну дурканул, по пьяни написал что-то в твитере. Кому интересно, посмотрите подкаст с Джо Роганом, где он беседует с Маском больше двух часов. Маск немного инфантильный и наивный, отсюда все эти недоразумения.
А рынок, в краткосрочной перспективе, такой же эмоциональный и недалекий как большинство его участников. e.g. падение акций сразу после покаста где Mаск, о боже!, покурил марихуану в прямом эфире. Очевидная knee jerk reaction. Через несколько дней акции восстановились в цене.

Нет, к концу недели все таки сполз. Bear trend.

Поскольку волатильность зашкаливает, то любая стратегия, credit spread, debit spread, iron condor, могут принести хороший доход.

Прогноз , как обычно, был точен (100% наоборот ))))
