    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in Finance from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics. Tesla: A Sequence of Belief Ted Lucas Andersson, 34028 A Project carried out on the Master in Finance Program, under the supervision of: Professor Paulo Soares de Pinho 03-01-2020 Abstract: Title: Tesla: A Sequence of Belief This case analyses the many challenges and achievements of a start-up company on its pursuit to take on the traditional players in an industry that is difficult to enter and succeed in. Additionally, this case details the road Tesla embarked on which tested investor confidence as Tesla strived to deliver on its increasingly ambitious goals. Furthermore, the case explores the strategic fit of merging two companies that are operating in two different industries but face similar financial problems arising from increasing debt levels and lack of profits. Keywords: Capital Raising, Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions, Conflict of Interest This work used infrastructure and resources funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (UID/ECO/00124/2013, UID/ECO/00124/2019 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209), POR Lisboa (LISBOA-01-0145-FEDER-007722 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209) and POR Norte (Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209). 1 Introduction On November 17, 2016, Jason Wheeler, Tesla’s CFO, had just received confirmation that the deal had closed for his company’s much-debated acquisition of SolarCity – a solar energy company that designs, finances and installs solar power systems. With leadership celebrations on the evening’s agenda Jason could not help but to ponder on the future of the growing company.

  • Tesla Motors
    For the exclusive use of J. Hao, 2016. 9-714-413 R E V : DECEMBER 17, 2015 E R I C VAN DEN STEEN Tesla Motors “Tesla is in California, so it is not April Fool’s yet!” tweeted Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors, around 10 PM PT on March 31, 2013. “First profitable Q for Tesla thanks to awesome customers & hard work by a super dedicated team”1 he had tweeted a few minutes earlier. And indeed, on May 8, Tesla announced a net income of more than $10mln on $560 mln in sales.2 Tesla had outsold both Nissan and GM in electric cars in the U.S.3 Its Model S had sold more than the BMW 7 and Audi A8 combined.4 Tesla raised its Model S sales target for its first full year from 20,000 to 21,000 cars.5 Over the next three months, its stock price almost tripled.6 In its 10 years since founding, Tesla had launched both a high-end limited edition “Tesla Roadster” and its “Model S” production car, and was now taking reservations on its upcoming “Model X” electric crossover SUV. Despite a public controversy about its range, the Model S had received the coveted Car of the Year award and earned the highest rating that Consumer Reports ever gave to a car, an astonishing feat for a company that was only at its second car. While some of its most visible EV competitors went bankrupt or halted production,7 Tesla became profitable. Elon Musk wanted Tesla to be a mass manufacturer of electric cars.8 Becoming profitable meant that that goal was within reach.

    Tesla, Inc (TSLA) Detecting “Potential” Fraud in Real-Time Q3-2018 March 19, 2019 What’s Our Goal Today? Timing is everything in fraud detection. The longer frauds continue, the more victims they create. Today’s Goal 1) Identify a business (spoiler alert – Tesla) exhibiting contextual risk factors suggesting an elevated risk of fraud. 2) Analyze a recent financial statement of that business for red flags suggesting aggressive (or fraudulent) accounting practices. PFH Capital | www.pfhcap.com 2 What Isn’t Our Goal Today (& a Disclosure)? Disclosure: My fund is “short” Tesla via long put options and bear put spreads. It is reasonable to consider me biased against Tesla (though I do my best to manage this bias)… http://www.theoptionsguide.com http://www.theoptionsguide.com … However, our goal today is not to thoroughly cover the entire short thesis. Focus will be on the fraud / earnings management case, not valuation. PFH Capital | www.pfhcap.com 3 The “Potential” Fraudster – Tesla Inc (TSLA) Electric car manufacturer founded in 2003.
