His pay package requires Tesla's market capitalisation and financial growth to hit a series of rising targets.Adjusted profit of 93 cents per share topped Wall Street's consensus of 79 cents.Despite production that is a fraction of that of Toyota Motor, Volkswagen or General Motors, Tesla has become by far the world's most valuable car maker, with a market capitalization of US$700 billion, compared with Toyota's US$250 billion.Tesla's shares have receded from record highs in 2021 after jumping more than eight-fold last year.Each tranche gives Mr Musk the option to buy 8.4 million Tesla shares at US$70 each, a discount of more than 90 per cent from their current price. At Monday's price of US$722, the shares from four previous tranches, plus the fifth and sixth tranches, could generate a profit of nearly US$34 billion, or almost US$6 billion per tranche.In its quarterly report after the bell, Tesla said it incurred an expense of US$299 million related to Mr Musk's pay package, \"driven by an increase in market capitalisation and a new operational milestone becoming probable.\"Sales of regulatory permits were higher than quarterly profit, in line with the trend of several quarters. Tesla earned US$518 million from sales of regulatory credits in the first quarter, up 46 per cent from a year earlier. Tesla earns credits for exceeding emissions and fuel economy standards and sells them to other automakers that fall short of the goals.\"Higher regulatory credits, lower taxes, and bitcoin sales buoyed financial results. Back these out, and it was a large miss,\" Roth Capital Partners analyst Craig Irwin said.Tesla trimmed its bitcoin position by 10 per cent during the quarter, which contributed to a small gain in first-quarter financials.\"We do believe long term in the value of bitcoin,\" said chief financial officer Zachary Kirkhorn. \"It is our intent to hold what we have long term and continue to accumulate bitcoin from transactions from our customers as they purchase vehicles.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":15,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[{"id":4143883,"commentId":"4143883","gmtCreate":1619483527855,"gmtModify":1680785753768,"authorId":3577774343761638,"author":{"id":3577774343761638,"idStr":"3577774343761638","authorId":3577774343761638,"name":"samfernando","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0364524ada7527bd96fee8e8676450a","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":377003880,"objectIdStr":"377003880","type":1,"supId":0,"supIdStr":"0","prevId":0,"prevIdStr":"0","content":"Do you think Elon deserves it?","text":"Do you think Elon deserves it?","html":"Do you think Elon deserves it?","likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"subComments":[{"id":4144151,"commentId":"4144151","gmtCreate":1619484305879,"gmtModify":1680785762005,"authorId":3581582691031963,"author":{"id":3581582691031963,"idStr":"3581582691031963","authorId":3581582691031963,"name":"mantaru","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d383ec25018126b5add320ac3acf90aa","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":377003880,"objectIdStr":"377003880","type":1,"supId":4143883,"supIdStr":"4143883","prevId":0,"prevIdStr":"0","content":"He is a genius of this time.
