金融界网站25日讯 8月25日，马斯克正式在特斯拉官网发表公开信，针对特斯拉私有化的消息进行表态称，特斯拉将放弃私有化。公开信透露，基于过去数周的讨论以及清楚的考虑，特斯拉的大多数股东们相信特斯拉维持上市地位会更好。
马斯克称，知道私有化的过程会很有挑战性，但很明显它会比最初预期的更耗费时间和分散注意力。这是一个问题，因为特斯拉目前必须专注于提升model3产量。
上周，公司CEO埃隆·马斯克在Twitter上透露公司将私有化的重磅消息，使股价当日大幅飙升。然而，事后特斯拉不仅被多方质疑私有化的落实程度，更引来美国证监会调查。虽然马斯克试图在媒体采访中解释此次事件，但不仅未能挽回公司形象，还引起股东们对其依赖药物的担忧，并引发投行大幅下调其目标价逾40％。
此外，供应商因遭拖延付款和要求高额返款而对其财务状况恶化表示担忧，model3的首次合格率仅为14％，高管集中离职，这些都让特斯拉深陷困境。
以下是马斯克的公开信（根据百度翻译整理）：
本月早些时候，我宣布我正在考虑把特斯拉私有化。作为这一进程的一部分，重要的是要了解我们目前的投资者是否相信这将是一个良好的战略举措，以及他们是否愿意参与私人特斯拉。
我们的投资者对我来说非常重要。自从2010年我们上市以来，几乎没有汽车投入生产，只有自己想成为什么样的样子，几乎所有人都一直跟着我们。他们坚信我们推进可持续能源的使命，并深切关心我们的成功。
我曾与银湖、高盛和摩根士丹利合作，他们在这些问题上拥有世界级的专业知识，以考虑在私有化泰斯拉方面将发挥作用的许多因素，并处理我们从投资者那里得到的所有利息，以便为私有化交易提供资金。我还花了相当多的时间倾听大股东和小股东的意见，了解他们认为对特斯拉最有利的长期利益。
根据过去几周里进行的所有讨论以及对公司最佳情况的全面考虑，我明白了一些事情：
根据我收到的反馈，很显然，特斯拉的大多数现有股东认为我们作为一家上市公司会更好。此外，一些机构股东解释说，他们存在内部合规问题，限制了他们对私人公司的投资。对于大多数散户投资者来说，如果我们是私有股，也没有确凿的路径。尽管和我交谈的大多数股东表示，如果我们私下进行，他们将继续支持特斯拉，但总的来说，他们的情绪是“请不要这样做”。
我知道私有化的过程很具有挑战性，但是很显然，这将比最初预期的更加耗时和分心。这是一个问题，因为我们绝对必须专注于斜坡模型3并变得有利可图。除非我们在经济上持续下去，否则我们将无法实现推进可持续能源的使命。
这就是说，我相信有足够的资金来接管特斯拉私人在这一过程中得到加强。
在考虑了所有这些因素之后，我昨天会见了特斯拉的董事会，让他们知道我认为更好的办法是特斯拉保持公开。董事会表示他们同意。
继续向前，我们将继续关注最重要的事情：建造人们喜爱的产品，并改变地球上生活的共同未来。我们已经表明，我们可以制造出巨大的可持续能源产品，现在我们需要证明我们可以持续盈利。随着我们在模型3上取得的所有进展，我们处于这样的位置，这就是我们团队和我将要付出的一切努力。
感谢我们所有的投资者、客户和员工，感谢你们给我们公司的支持。我非常激动地继续把特斯拉作为一家上市公司来领导。这是一种特权。

Staying Public
Elon MuskAugust 24, 2018
Earlier this month， I announced that I was considering taking Tesla private. As part of the process， it was important to understand whether our current investors believed this would be a good strategic move and whether they would want to participate in a private Tesla.
Our investors are extremely important to me. Almost all have stuck with us from the time we went public in 2010 when we had no cars in production and only a vision of what we wanted to be. They believe strongly in our mission to advance sustainable energy and care deeply about our success.
I worked with Silver Lake， Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley， who have world-class expertise in these matters， to consider the many factors that would come into play in taking Tesla private， and to process all the incoming interest that we received from investors to fund a go-private transaction. I also spent considerable time listening to current shareholders， large and small， to understand what they think would be in the best long-term interests of Tesla.
Based on all the discussions that have taken place over the last couple of weeks and a thorough consideration of what is best for the company， a few things are clear to me:
- Given the feedback I’ve received， it’s apparent that most of Tesla’s existing shareholders believe we are better off as a public company. Additionally， a number of institutional shareholders have explained that they have internal compliance issues that limit how much they can invest in a private company. There is also no proven path for most retail investors to own shares if we were private. Although the majority of shareholders I spoke to said they would remain with Tesla if we went private， the sentiment， in a nutshell， was “please don’t do this.”
- I knew the process of going private would be challenging， but it’s clear that it would be even more time-consuming and distracting than initially anticipated. This is a problem because we absolutely must stay focused on ramping Model 3 and becoming profitable. We will not achieve our mission of advancing sustainable energy unless we are also financially sustainable.
- That said， my belief that there is more than enough funding to take Tesla private was reinforced during this process.
After considering all of these factors， I met with Tesla’s Board of Directors yesterday and let them know that I believe the better path is for Tesla to remain public. The Board indicated that they agree.
Moving forward， we will continue to focus on what matters most: building products that people love and that make a difference to the shared future of life on Earth. We’ve shown that we can make great sustainable energy products， and we now need to show that we can be sustainably profitable. With all the progress we’ve made on Model 3, we’re positioned to do this， and that’s what the team and I are going to be putting all of our efforts toward.
Thank you to all of our investors， customers and employees for the support you’ve given our company. I’m incredibly excited to continue leading Tesla as a public company. It is a privilege.
