The appointment of Linda Yaccarino, former Chairman of Global Advertising and Partnerships at NBC Universal, as Twitter CEO will free Elon Musk to dedicate extra to Tesla and convey it again heading in the right direction.
Musk’s position will now transition to being government chair and CTO, “overseeing product, software program and system operations.”
“Bringing on Linda allows me to devote more time to Tesla, which is exactly what I will be doing,” Musk stated on Saturday.
Tesla’s working earnings decreased 24 per cent to $2.7 billion in Q1 2023 because the Musk-run EV maker continues to chop costs of its autos.
In an earnings name with analysts, Musk stated that Tesla will begin delivering its long-delayed Cybertruck within the third quarter of 2023.
“It takes time to get the manufacturing line going, and that is actually a really radical product. It’s not made in the best way that different vehicles are made,” Musk stated late final month.
In the first quarter, Tesla’s automotive revenue reached about $19.9 billion, an 18 per cent increase YoY.
Tesla ended the March quarter with free cash flow of $441 million, down 80 per cent from the same period last year.
The company has drastically lowered the prices of EVs across its lineup in the US and Europe, in an effort to boost sales as its stock plummeted more than 60 per cent earlier this year.
Musk had hinted that more price increases may be on the way as Tesla adjusts to the demand created by the massive price cuts.
