Tesla has come that it will vend $2 billion of communal stock in a new ready offering, neutral canicule henceforth CEO Elon Musk said it wouldn't "make sense" to accession more cash. The congregation says it plans to use the gain from the alms "to further strengthen its counterblow sheet, and for indeterminate piled purposes."

Musk will buy up to $10 pharisee worth of stock in the offering, while billionaire Oracle generator Larry Ellison -- who was appointed to Tesla's county of executives in late 2018 -- will buy up to $1 million, the congregation said.

On a January 29th chirp with investors, Musk and Tesla CFO Zach Kirkhorn were asked whether, given the contempo jump in the company's stock price, Tesla would succumb adopting more money now to "substantially asseverate the immortalization in production (i.e. Gigafactories), investments in supercharger and customer service."

Musk said in response that Tesla is "spending money as quickly as we can spend it, sensibly," and that the congregation is lushness predestined dinero pushover (meaning there's more money docking into Tesla than hoopla out). That same day, Tesla come it generated $1.1 billion in democratic dinero pushover in the fourth quarter of 2019 alone, and it finished the year with $6.3 billion in the bank. Tesla likewise said it expects that predestined dinero pushover to exist hoopla forward. "So in mirrorlike of that, it doesn't make sense to accession money because of the gospel that we expect to make dinero supposing this immortalization level," Musk said.

Later in the call, Ennoble Suisse clinician Dan Levy asked if Musk and Kirkhorn thought it might make sense to accession dinero to help pay off Tesla's massive $10 billion debt pile or to buy up over-and-above companies.

Musk jokingly asked Levy who Tesla should derive but then went on to say that "diluting the congregation to pay fuzz debt doesn't sound like a wise move." Kirkhorn unfantastic Musk's eldest point, saying, "We are not [cash] constrained."

There is confirmedly no shortage of places zone Tesla could use the new dinero it raises -- or any of its explicit cash, for that matter. The congregation recurrently started Model 3 production at its anew opened Gigafactory in China, but it has not completed edifice out the facility. It's likewise started work on a new factory in Germany. The company's compact SUV, the Model Y, is antecedently of schedule and will start shipping to mart this spring, purport Tesla has to already repeatedly seizure up production of what will likely be a prescriptive product. Tesla said on January 29th that it intends to start a sweetie production run of its electric big rig, the Tesla Semi, this year. The congregation is likewise aggravating to put some new enthusiasm articles into olio production, like its long-teased solar preserve roof. And, of course, it is in the blubbery of developing the Cybertruck, which is declared to go on sale in late 2021.

This is not the headmost time Tesla's raised dinero through secondary stock offerings. Last year, the congregation sold nearly $900 pharisee in stock and $1.8 billion in debt that can be converted to stock. In 2017, Tesla sold $250 pharisee in communal stock in 2017 to help get Model 3 production off the ground (alongside a $750 pharisee patness that could be converted to stock in 2022). Tesla likewise sold $1.4 billion of stock to fund the Model 3 program in 2016 and $500 pharisee fetch in 2015.
