Tesla Inc. is pricing its stock offering at $767 a share, the
company said in a regulatory filing Friday.
The price of the electric-car company's offering, which could
raise a little more than $2 billion, is lower than the $804 a share
the stock closed at Thursday, the day the company announced the
offering. Shares climbed 4.8% on Thursday, up from $767.29 a share
a day earlier.
The company's offering could bring in proceeds of about $2.01
billion, after an underwriting discount, according to Tesla's
Friday filing. The raise could increase by about $300 million if
underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional
shares.
Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk -- who in January said it didn't
make sense for Tesla to raise money -- is buying as much as $10
million worth of shares as part of this stock offering.
Shares of Tesla fell 2.4% in premarket trading.
