Introduction
American automaker Tesla Motors has been well-known and well-received for
its cutting-edge approach to electric vehicles. Since its founding in 2003 by Marc
Tarpenning and Martin Eberhard, Tesla has grown to become a major force in the
electric vehicle industry.
The Tesla Roadster, an all-electric sports car that has caught the attention of auto
fans all over the world, is the company's flagship product. The 2008 release of the
Roadster is renowned for its exceptional performance and remarkable range on a single
charge.
Tesla's utilization of cutting-edge technology and emphasis on sustainability
make up part of their USP. Elon Musk, the CEO of the company, is a forward-thinking
businessman who is devoted to promoting renewable energy alternatives. The electric
cars made by Tesla are not just renowned for not only for their superior performance
features and stylish looks, but also for their environmental friendliness.
Tesla intends to introduce other electric vehicles to its roster in addition to the
Roadster; the Model S sedan and the Model X SUV are drawing notice for their
remarkable range and cutting-edge features. To make sustainable mobility available to
a larger audience, the business has also revealed intentions to manufacture more
reasonably priced electric automobiles.
One of the main pillars of Tesla's business plan is its network of Superchargers,
which offers fast-charging locations so that owners may easily drive large distances.
Range anxiety is a prevalent problem with electric vehicles that is addressed by this
infrastructure.
3
When it comes to its financial performance, Tesla has faced both obstacles and
victories. The business has attracted investors and a devoted following. Overall, Tesla's
innovative approach to electric vehicles and its commitment to pushing the boundaries
of technology make it a fascinating player in the automotive industry. The company's
success and impact on the automotive landscape will continue to be closely watched in
the years to come, But to be able to do so, this paper will list and present the main risks
of the Tesla’s business, this by dividing it in 5 sections starting with the operational
risks, financial risks, workforce risk, supply chain risks and finally the sustainable risks.
Operational Risks
OPR1: Gigafactories Production Dependence
Tesla's operational risk register highlights a high dependence on crucial
elements such as lithium cells, nickel, aluminum, and cobalt, vital for battery
production in all Tesla products. The risk stems from potential price increases for these
components, which could significantly impact on the company's profit margin. With
an 80% probability and a 4% cost increase, the risk is actively managed by monitoring
commodity volatility. Mitigation strategies include exploring forward contracts and
hedging strategies to safeguard against price rises. Tesla's risk management team also
considers partnerships with mines or even direct ownership to secure a competitive and
stable resource inflow.
OPR2: Political and Regulatory Change
Operational Risk 2 outlines the sensitivity of Tesla to political and regulatory
changes, considering its leadership in the mass production of electric vehicles, a
practically new market in 2014. While favorable regulations on electric vehicle use
could boost consumer demand, adverse changes might pose a threat. The risk has a
70% probability that regulations are going to happen. This risk is monitored for
4
potential impacts on Tesla's market position. The strategy involves staying informed
on political developments and ensuring regulatory compliance, as it is difficult to state
if these risks will be beneficial or not. Tesla actively engages in monitoring and
influencing policies to support electric vehicles and sustainable production.
OPR3: ESG Criteria Expectations
This operational risk addresses the evolving consumer expectations related to
environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. In fact, for the moment, Tesla
and their electric vehicles are seen as leaders in the production of sustainable products,
which makes them more appealing. Changes in consumer preferences could impact
Tesla's constraints and increase future costs, as in fact, consumers could start to think
that Tesla’s products are not so sustainable. With a 55% probability, the risk is actively
accepted, as if it is probable that consumers’ demand change, there is nothing that could
lead us to think that consumers will stop consuming Tesla’s product because of the
sectors and clients they are targeting. The mitigation strategy involves maintaining high
consumer satisfaction levels. Tesla aims to adapt to changing trends and customer
demands, positioning itself as a luxury, innovative, and sustainable manufacturer in the
market.
OPR4: Software Malfunction Risk
The risk of software malfunctions leading to potential recalls is identified in
OPR4. With a 30% probability and a potential 3% impact on production costs, it would
decrease brand recognition and trust, thus impacting the selling price. Even if the cost
does not explicitly increase, the margin will decrease. The risk is actively avoided
through the IT department's awareness and the recurrent and systematic internal audit
of the products or uploads before they come out. The strategy involves ensuring the
5
quality of the software used in Tesla products and regularly updating it with stable code
that has already been back-tested on private products before uploading it to the public.
This proactive approach aims to maintain a high level of security and prevent major
issues arising from software glitches.
OPR5: Cybersecurity Threat to Data Center
The final operational risk pertains to a potential cyberattack on Tesla's data
center, where large amounts of critical information are stored. With a low 3%
probability but severe consequences, including brand damage and legal actions, the
risk is actively transferred through insurance coverage. Tesla also has robust
cybersecurity measures and regular audits. In the event of a breach, Tesla has a recovery
plan in place, emphasizing transparency and a dedicated team for information recovery
and deletion.
Financial Risks
FIN1: Liquidity Risk
We are using three ratios to assess Tesla’s liquidity, and more precisely to
measure the company’s ability to pay off its current debt obligations without raising
excess money or entering in a distress situation.
The ratios (to simplify computations marketable securities have not been considered*):
𝐶𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑡𝑠 26,717
- Current ratio = 𝐶𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑙𝑖𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑠 = 14,248 = 1.88
𝐶𝑎𝑠ℎ+𝑅𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒𝑠∗ 19,384+1,886
- Quick ratio = = = 1.5
𝐶.𝐿. 14,248
𝐶𝑎𝑠ℎ∗ 19,384
- Cash ratio = 𝐶.𝐿.
=14,248 = 1.36
6
From these results we can obviously affirm the current financial stability of Tesla. The
high-tech car company has the capability to repay its whole current liabilities by using
only 74% of its cash account capacity. It demonstrates a net financial strength of the
company. Thus, liquidity risk is at this time avoided.
FIN2: Activity Risk
We are using three ratios to gauge the financial position of Tesla. This analysis
aims to understand how the car company’s managers efficiently allocate inventories
relative to sales and receivables.
The ratios:
𝐶𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝐺𝑜𝑜𝑑 𝑆𝑜𝑙𝑑𝑠 (𝐶𝑂𝐺𝑆) 24,906
- Inventory turnover = = = 6.51
𝐼𝑛𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 3,825
This metric reveals that during this period Tesla turned its inventory every 56 days on
average during the period. This is translating a good rotation of the commodities and
the final products.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑆𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑠 31,536
- Receivable turnover ratio = 𝑅𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒𝑠 = = 19.65
1,605
The ratio shows that Tesla has in average 19 days to wait before receiving payments for
receivables. It is a very good result for Tesla compared to its peers. For instance, Fords
as a receivable turnover ratio equal to 3.21 in 2023.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑆𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑠 31,536
- Asset turnover = 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐴𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑡𝑠 = 52,148 = 0.6
The asset turnover is close to 1 therefore it is acceptable for the company. It is common
in company with important fixed assets as Tesla. For instance, Ford’s asset turnover is
equal to 0.68 in 2023.
7
FIN3: Debt Risk
We assess Tesla’s leverage position. We are using to metrics debt ratio and
interest earned ratio to examine the financial leverage of the company.
The ratios:
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐷𝑒𝑏𝑡 11,688
- Debt ratio = 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐴𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑡𝑠 =52,148= 0.22
The result reveals that the high-tech car company has a non-negligible debt, however it
is not in a debt overhang position.
𝐸𝐵𝐼𝑇 1,998
- Times interest ratio =𝐼𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝐸𝑥𝑝𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑒 = = 2.97
748
The result demonstrates that Tesla can meet its debt obligation based on its current
income. The TIE of Tesla reveals a certain amount of freedom from the constraints of
debt.
FIN4: Profitability
Again, we assess the profitability position of mister Musk’s company. We are
going to see the company’s ability to generate earnings compared to its revenue.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒 690
- Return on Equity (ROE) = 𝐴𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑠′ 𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑖𝑡𝑦 =23,075=2.99%
As we can see the efficiency of generating income and growth from Tesla equity
financing is poor. However, it is its first year where the Net Income is positive. So, this
is significant for both parts managers and investors.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝐼𝑛𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒 690
- Return on assets (ROA) =𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐴𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑡𝑠 = 52,148 =1.32%
8
Same conclusion as the ROE, previously the company was in cash burn position and
was not generating profit due to high expenditure made possible by high fundraising
effect.
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝐼𝑛𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒 690
- Profit margin = =31,540 = 2.19%
𝑅𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑒
Same perspective, at this point the profit margin is poor due to a recent cash burn
situation. For the moment Tesla is able to convert only 2.19% of its revenue in profit.
FIN5: Return to Investors
Finally, we measure Tesla’s ability to satisfy shareholders through its operations.
We are using earnings per share and price to earnings ratio to evaluate the potential that
tesla can satisfy its shareholder’s financial desire.
(TESLA does not provide dividends*)
𝑁𝑒𝑡 𝐼𝑛𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒∗ 690
- EPS=𝐶𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑜𝑛 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔=3,249=212.37$
It is the value that the company makes for each share of its stock.
𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑃𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑒 (𝑖𝑛 𝑑𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 2020) 232
- P/E= = =1.09
𝐸𝑃𝑆 212.37
In this scenario the P/E is very low reflecting a certain scepticism from investors point
of view, which normal reflecting previous profitability analysis. Additionally, we can
consider that the market price of TESLA stock is undervalued, which could be a good
position to buy Tesla’s stocks.

Workforce risks
WOF1: Skills and talent availability
Tesla might lack qualified workers as it’s constantly developing and
progressing and may demand difficult tasks according to those changes. New
challenges occur and require among workers a peculiar attention to safety protocols.
However, it is also important to take in account the lack of attractivity that Tesla might
also suffer from, as their competitors could interest talented workers. There is a 30
percent chance that Tesla may lose its key employees, and it may lead to important
losses as they have an important role and influence in the decision-making process and
in diverse areas such as innovation, research & development.
WOF2: Unionization risk
Labor unions have in the past compromised Tesla transparency, as the CEO
tweeted in 2018 that they would lose their stock options, breaching labor laws
according to the National Labor Relations Board (Scheiber, 2021). Labor unions are
threatening Tesla’s brand value and image as this latter is responsible for conducting
diligent actions respecting labors rights. They have a low probability of happening but
still need to be avoided as they can be helped by the media, and discredit thus the whole
company, creating potentially an increase of 4 % in costs. The risk of union strikes must
be anticipated, and a close relationship should be reinforced between tesla’s top
management and labor unions to avoid furthermore disputes.
WOF3: Intellectual property risk
This risk presents many threats for Tesla, as it is mainly based on technological
innovations, ai, private data etc. The company is not totally safe from cyberattacks or
even espionage. Moreover, inside the company, some workers could potentially
divulgate protected secrets to competitors.
10
In the past, a company was sued by Tesla for welcoming ancient Tesla employees and
thus stealing trade secrets thanks to their knowledge (Burdson & Ludlow, 2020). There
is a low percentage of chance, but the impact could be terrible for Tesla, with the leak
of unique potential patent, giving an increase of 5 percent in cost. It must be mitigated
by reinforcing the non-disclosure agreement and cybersecurity systems. Employees
should be educated to be prepared for any leak.
WOF4: Diversity risk
Tesla needs to be attentive to discrimination attitudes in the job market and
improve inclusion among workers who are from different cultural backgrounds. In
2021, Tesla was already charged for being responsible of a discrimination and racist
act against an employee and had to pay 137 millions of dollars to compensate the
victim. (Jin, Kerber & Linsk, 2021). As there are thousands of employees, the chances
of having discrimination or racist issues can be high and cause an increase in cost of 2
%.
Transparency is essential for a mediatized and famous company like Tesla, since their
brand value could deteriorate because of the terrible scandals such as the one
highlighted. Appropriate diversity policies reviews should be conducted, and
employees have to assess by themselves the quality of their work environment to
mitigate the risk.
WOF5: Workforce related regulations and compliance risk
Tesla has multiple times breached labor laws. As it was illustrated before, Tesla
maintained a coercive attitude towards labor union, but it also provoked suits related
to racism and discrimination. Overall, Tesla is obliged to adapt its firm according to
11
modern values and ethical behavior which can be found in diverse ISO guidelines. The
risk is estimated as quite low, but the impact could be very important, with an increase
of 5 % in cost. Tesla must be careful with its workforce management as there are threats
related to it, which could lead Tesla to disastrous results because of poor workforce
management. Audit routines should be reinforced and the quality of work of the audit
team, their integrity and their professionalism should be assessed, verified by the top
management.
Supply Chain Risks
SCR1: Weather Risk
Tesla's global supply chain faces amplified weather risks due to its diverse
supplier locations worldwide. With a 40% probability of extreme weather affecting
warehouses or suppliers, there's a substantial likelihood of a 10% production delay or
cancellations in case of such events. This delay could result in a 2.5% cost impact.
However, Tesla's well-diversified portfolio of suppliers across regions mitigates this
risk to an extent.
The recovery process from weather-related disruptions is relatively swift, typically
taking 1-2 weeks after repairs. To manage such risks, the Supply Chain World Manager
intends to redistribute workload among other factories during disruptions, leveraging
Tesla's diverse factory presence in South and East Asia, Europe, and America.
Additionally, Tesla may explore partnerships with manufacturers in areas where they're
not present, enabling production relocation during post-event repairs. As of 2022, no
active changes or updates have been reported.
12
SCR2: Demand Risk
Tesla's demand fluctuates significantly based on global trends and
governmental regulations promoting electric cars, creating a 15% probability of
demand risk. Any decline in this trend could cause an exponential decrease in sales,
heavily impacting the company due to its association with the trend and CEO Elon
Musk. Notably, a 9% stock plunge followed a controversial video of Musk in
September 2018, taking about two months to restore public perception and trend
momentum. To manage this risk, Tesla continually invests in R&D and emphasizes
rapid communication to adapt production promptly. The Supply Chain Manager
actively monitors communication effectiveness and factory operations to ensure
alignment with adaptation strategies. However, as of 2018, no reported changes or
updates have been implemented in response to this ongoing risk.
SCR3: Supplier Risk
Tesla's global supply chain, reliant on multiple suppliers, faces a 5% probability
of supplier risks. Should a supplier fail to meet obligations, it would trigger price hikes
for Tesla products and reduce production by 20%, impacting the entire production
chain. However, Tesla is adept at swiftly finding alternatives or renegotiating deals
within a week.
To manage such risks, the Supply Chain Manager is proactive, directly investigating
on-site issues and engaging with Supplier Managers to resolve problems swiftly.
Maintaining strong relationships and frequent site visits are part of the ongoing strategy
to ensure good deals and supplier reliability. As of 2022, there have been no reported
changes or updates in the approach to mitigating supplier risks.
13
SCR4:Raw Material Risk
Tesla's raw material risk primarily stems from its heavy reliance on Chinese
suppliers, constituting 40% of its battery supply. This dependency poses a 40%
probability of disruption, resulting in a 40% production loss if events like the Covid-
19 pandemic impact the entire country. While Tesla's factories are globally diversified,
crucial raw material producers, especially for batteries, are predominantly situated in
China.
To manage this risk, the Supply Chain Manager's strategy involves relocating
production as a last resort and creating a stockpile of raw materials for potential resale
without loss. Additionally, proactive monitoring of economic indicators and factors
influencing raw material production in China remains ongoing. As of 2018, there have
been no reported changes or updates in the approach to mitigating raw material risks.
SCR5 :Cyber Attack Risk
Tesla, as a tech-oriented company, faces a substantial 10% probability of cyber-
attack risk, considering its ventures into cryptocurrency and its CEO's significant
involvement in tech. The potential cost impact is high due to direct financial
implications and reputational damage, with the possibility of a market cap loss of up to
20%.
In response to this risk, Tesla focuses on swift communication strategies following an
attack, aiming to restore its reputation. Collaboration between the Supply Chain
Manager and the Cybersecurity Team is crucial to repairing any damage caused by the
14
attack. The company actively prioritizes cybersecurity, continuously enhancing
protective measures and refining systems for detecting suspicious activities. As of
2022, no reported changes or updates have been made regarding Tesla's ongoing efforts
to combat cyber-attack risks.
Sustainable Risk
SSRPR1: Environmental impact Risk
In its 2021 impact report, which was published last year, Tesla did provide a
partial depiction of their carbon footprint. However, the emissions originating from the
company's supply chain remain unaccounted for, despite being the most probable
source of emissions. Climate activists have pushed firms to report this category of
pollution even though it is difficult to assess because it typically makes up a significant
portion of the company's overall footprint.
According to Tesla's impact study, over 80% of the climate pollution from its
Model 3 battery pack originates from upstream greenhouse gas emissions from the
production of EV batteries. However, the exact amount of pollution that is still
unknown to us.
This environmental impact then represents a risk for the company, in fact the Tesla
company, which is known for its commitment to sustainable development, can face its
reduction in turnover caused of its customers who withdraw/boycott or potential
customers involved in sustainable development who would become resistant to
purchasing a car from Tesla which would be polluting.
15
Elon Musk revealed the third part of Tesla’s “Master Plan,” in which the company will
lead the global effort to eliminate fossil fuels and convert the world to sustainable
energy.
SSRPR2: Ethical Risk
In 2017, Tesla faced allegations of a racist work environment with a complaint
filed with a plaintiff alleging racial discrimination. In 2021, as a result of the lawsuit,
Tesla lost $137 million. In addition, other complaints were noted the same year,
particularly against women. The workplace at Tesla then faced many problems linked
to racial segregation, where minority employees were victims of racist insults and faced
discrimination in job assignments, salaries, promotions. …which leads to a hostile
work environment.
These problems of discrimination at Tesla then have an impact on the risks
linked to the company's image. Indeed, such accusations have an impact on the
company's turnover, on the costs of the trial but also on customer boycotts.
SSRPR3: Health & Safety Risk
In 2018, According to reports, Tesla was undercounting injuries by neglecting
to enter them on legally required logs, which are used to calculate the injury rate for
the corporation. Overall, it was discovered that Tesla disregarded the advice of its own
safety experts and valued speed over safety.
Musk disliked the color yellow, so members of the safety team were instructed not to
use it to identify certain production hazards. In a statement released before to the story's
publication, Tesla referred to us as a "extremist organization."
16
Moreover, in the same year, Tesla admitted that it had been neglecting to count certain
injuries by adding 13 injuries from 2017 that had been absent from its injury logs.
The California occupational safety department (Cal/OSHA) concluded its
investigation against Tesla and fined the company $400 for not reporting even one
injury within the mandated time frame. Tesla has claimed that this proves it was
exonerated of any wrongdoing. However, the government informed us that it had
discovered other additional instances of undercounting injuries that did not fall under
the six-month statute of limitations.
SSRPR4: Climate Change Risk
The IPCC report from 2021 states that as a result of climate change, the water
cycle is becoming more intense worldwide, leading to more severe droughts. Water
scarcity brought on by climate change presents significant risks to our business,
including the possibility of supply chain interruption, operations disturbance, or
reduced production capacity, as well as political and legal concerns from competing
for scarce water resources. A significant amount of water is needed for Tesla's
production processes. Tesla operates in water-impacted areas of Shanghai and
Germany; in Austin, Texas, where droughts are growing more regular; and in California
and Nevada, where disputes over water rights are prevalent. There is a medium to high
danger of water stress in each of these areas. Moreover, Tesla demonstrates that new
factories will have a lower total water withdrawal intensity than most peers and does
publish water reduction actions at specific locations.
SSRPR5: Brand Image credibility Risk:
Given his recent actions, some individuals don't think Elon Musk's brands are
credible. Some say that Tesla and SpaceX's reputations are being harmed by his erratic
17
tweeting and unusual business methods. Musk has been in the headlines lately, but not
for the good reasons. In addition to making some sexist remarks on Twitter, he has
gotten into arguments with other corporate officials on multiple occasions. For
example, many viewed Elon Musk's criticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin on
Twitter as improper and demeaning to the people of Ukraine. Some began to doubt
Musk's judgment and suitability as a company leader as a result of this.
