Here's How Much Tesla Shares Are Up Since Elon Musk's Original 2018 Pay Package Was Approved
On Thursday, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) shareholders approved a compensation plan for CEO Elon Musk that was voided by a Delaware judge.
週四，特斯拉股東批准了一項由特拉華州法官撤銷的首席執行官埃隆·馬斯克的薪酬計劃。
The new pay package could total $56 billion for Musk, but comes as many Tesla shareholders have also been rewarded with strong share performance over the last five-plus years. Here's a look at how much Tesla shares have risen since then.
新的薪酬計劃可能會爲馬斯克帶來總計560億美元的報酬，但也正值許多特斯拉股東在過去五多年中表現強勁得到回報。以下是特斯拉股票自那時以來上漲了多少的情況。
What Happened: Tesla shareholders overwhelmingly approved a compensation package for Musk during the 2024 annual shareholders meeting.
特斯拉股東在2024年年度股東大會上壓倒性地批准了馬斯克的薪酬計劃。
While some criticize the compensation as being high and leading to future dilution of shares, the original 2018 plan was approved by 81% of votes, and Musk helped the company pass many milestones.
雖然有人批評這種補償過高，並導致未來股份被稀釋，但2018年原始計劃得到了81%的贊成票，馬斯克幫助公司實現了許多里程碑。
The 2018 plan was announced by the company on Jan. 23, 2018 and approved by shareholders on March 21, 2018.
這項計劃於2018年1月23日由該公司宣佈，於2018年3月21日獲股東批准。
Since that time, Tesla shares are up 727.7%.
自那時以來，特斯拉股票上漲了727.7%。
Based on a split-adjusted price of $21.50 for Tesla shares at the time, a $1,000 investment could have purchased 46.51 Tesla shares. That $1,000 investment would be worth $8,277.38 today.
基於當時特斯拉股票的分股調整價格爲21.50美元，1000美元的投資可以購買46.51股特斯拉股票。那1000美元的投資今天將價值8,277.38美元。
For comparison, the same $1,000 invested in the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY), which tracks the S&P 500, would have returned less. The $1,000 could have bought 3.66 SPY shares and would be worth $1,982.48. This represents a return of 98.2% over the same time period.
相比之下，同樣投資於SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust（紐交所：SPY），該基金跟蹤標普500指數，回報率較低。1000美元可以購買3.66份SPY股票，今天將價值1,982.48美元。這代表了同一時期的回報率爲98.2%。

Why It's Important: The 2018 compensation plan was put in place as a "long-term performance award" for Musk at the time.
爲了實現當時的“長期績效獎勵”，2018年制定了薪酬計劃。
"Compensation is tied to market capitalization and operational milestones that are based on Tesla becoming one of the most valuable companies in the world," the company said at the time.
公司當時表示：“薪酬與建立特斯拉成爲全球最有價值的公司的市值和運營里程碑掛鉤。”
In order for Musk to be paid out the billions in compensation, it required hitting milestones based on market capitalization, revenue and profits. When Tesla hit $650 billion in market capitalization, Musk had unlocked all the tranches of the plan.
爲了支付馬斯克數十億美元的報酬，需要實現基於市值、營業收入和利潤的里程碑。當特斯拉市值達到6500億美元時，馬斯克已解鎖了該計劃的所有股票。
It's important to remember that if Tesla had not reached these milestones, Musk may have made zero. Analysts and financial experts said many of the milestones were next to impossible to hit, but the company prevailed.
必須記住的是，如果特斯拉沒有達到這些里程碑，馬斯克可能一分錢也沒有賺到。許多分析師和財務專家稱許多里程碑幾乎不可能實現，但公司最終實現了這些里程碑。
"Elon will receive no guaranteed compensation of any kind – no salary, no cash bonuses, and no equity that vests simply by the passage of time," the company said at the time.
公司當時表示：“伊隆將不會獲得任何形式的保障性報酬——沒有薪水、沒有現金獎金，也沒有僅僅基於時間的股權。”
The plan was said to ensure that Musk would only be compensated if Tesla and shareholders do well.
這個計劃是爲了確保只有當特斯拉和股東表現良好時，馬斯克才能獲得補償。
Based on the math above, Tesla shareholders have done quite well.
根據上述計算，特斯拉股東取得了相當不錯的回報。
