Tesla acaba de presentar cuentas semestrales:
http://ir.tesla.com/secfiling.cfm?filingid=1564590-17-15705&CIK=1318605De la página 40 a la 56 está lo que nadie lee (o publica), la letra pequeña. Para mi es lo más interesante de las empresas Yankees. Algunas perlas:
We may experience delays in realizing our projected timelines and cost and volume targets for the production , launch and ramp of our Model 3 vehicle, which could harm our business , prospects , financial condition and operating results.
Our future growth and success is dependent upon consumers’ willingness to adopt electric vehicles and specifically our vehicles, especially in the mass market demographic which we are targeting with Model 3.
If we fail to scale our business operations and otherwise manage future growth effectively as we rapidly grow our company, especially internationally, we may not be able to produce, market, sell and service our products successfully.
Reducción de costes:
If we are unable to continue to reduce the manufacturing costs of Model S and Model X or control manufacturing costs for Model 3, our financial condition and operating results will suffer.
No pensaba que los incendios pudieran afectarles tanto, sobre todo cuando arden decenas de vehículos de combustión todos los días sólo en España:
Our vehicles and energy storage products make use of lithium-ion battery cells, which have been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flame, and such events have raised concerns, and future events may lead to additional concerns, about the batteries used in automotive applications.
Aquí también veo a España:
Our plan to expand our network of Tesla stores, galleries, service centers and Superchargers will require significant cash investments and management resources and may not meet expectations with respect to additional sales or installations of our products or availability of Superchargers.
Gigafactory 2:
Any failure by us to realize the expected benefits of our substantial investments and commitments with respect to the manufacture of PV cells, including if we are unable to comply with the terms of our agreement with the Research Foundation for the State University of New York relating to our Gigafactory 2, could result in negative consequences for our business.
Mr. Musk, para mi el mayor "problema" de Tesla:
We are highly dependent on the services of Elon Musk, our Chief Executive Officer.
Elon Musk has pledged shares of our common stock to secure certain bank borrowings. If Mr. Musk were forced to sell these shares pursuant to a margin call that he could not avoid or satisfy, such sales could cause our stock price to decline.
Otros:
We are currently expanding and improving our information technology systems and use security measures designed to protect our systems against breaches and cyber-attacks. If these efforts are not successful, our business and operations could be disrupted and our operating results and reputation could be harmed.
We may need or want to raise additional funds and these funds may not be available to us when we need them. If we cannot raise additional funds when we need or want them , our operations and prospects could be negatively affected .
En definitiva, nada que no hagan otras empresas pero curioso e interesante al fin y al cabo EMHO...
