Question

Define the mergers and acquisitions of Tesla and define what has the company gained?

Answer 1

Tesla has made 6 acquisitions and 2 investments. The company has spent over $ 2.82B for the acquisitions. Tesla has invested in multiple sectors such as Energy Storage Tech, Autonomous Vehicles and more.

It confirms that Hibar and Deepscale were relatively small acquisitions for Tesla.

Deepscale appears to be mostly what some people call “acqui-hire,” and the people who join Tesla probably got a bunch of shares.

As for Maxwell, which was a $207 million acquisition, and Hibar, which had to be less than $96 million, I think those two acquisitions combined is a somewhat inexpensive way to supercharge their now obvious move into manufacturing their own battery cells.

Again, we expect to hear more about Tesla’s effort to invest heavily into its own battery cell production in the next few months.

Tesla has acquired 6 companies, including 3 in the last 5 years. A total of 2 acquisitions came from private equity firms.

Tesla’s largest acquisition to date was in 2016, when it acquired SolarCity for $2.6B. Tesla has acquired in 3 different US states, and 2 countries. The Company’s most targeted sectors include machinery (34%) and automotive (17%).
