Kinda late to the game with this, but Tesla has officially filed an S-1 which means it will probably IPO sometime in Fall 2010.
Just wanted to share, cause you know, I’m right.
- Tesla expects to raise $100M
- Law firm WSGR is running the show
- Some heavy (and hungry no doubt) ibanks participating include: JPM, GS, MS, Deutsche
- In 2008, net loss of $83M
- PwC is auditor (not surprising, the only other alt. would be EY considering Silicon Valley presence)
Question is: would you want to be an investor? and why?

I just made a purchase for a set of new Bose Triport replacement cushions using Bill Me Later. This was my first time using it and it was surprisingly easy: just fill in your address, birth date and last four digits of your social. In a matter of seconds, you find out whether or not you can make the purchase on credit. I’m not really sure how I get an invoice and pay for it, so I’ll post an update on that shortly. The apparent technology with BML is interesting because it doesn’t require you to enter your full SSN, unlike say a credit card application, and instead uses a variety of known factors like your address and birth date to figure out who you are and consequently, your credit allowance.
