For Tesla, effects of Elon Musk’s take-private tweet continue

By Securities Docket on February 25, 2019, 10:13 am

Tesla and CEO Elon Musk settled with the SEC last year over Musk’s tweets about taking the company private, but the fallout isn’t over.

The electric-car company said in a filing Tuesday that it “substantially paid by the end of 2018” $30.1 million in settlement and legal expenses related to Musk’s public statements about a plan to take Tesla private, which did not materialize.

However, Tesla also said that by March 7 it plans to file a motion to dismiss a consolidated class-action lawsuit filed in January by shareholders who accused Musk of violating federal securities laws when he tweeted last August that he had secured financing to take the company private.
