What’s on the Ballot

Proposal 1: Re-Elect Three Class I Directors

Elon Musk, Board Chair Robyn Denholm, and JB Straubel are each up for separate votes to serve new three-year terms. In its letter to shareholders, the Board called this the most important item on the ballot and asked investors to vote with its recommendations on all proposals, “most importantly, the re-election of our Class I Directors.”

Proposal 2: Approve 2025 Executive Compensation

This advisory “say-on-pay” vote covers how Tesla compensated executives in 2025, including $158.4 billion in stock awards for Musk. While non-binding, it signals shareholder sentiment on pay.

Proposal 3: Ratify PwC as Auditor

Shareholders will decide whether to keep PricewaterhouseCoopers as Tesla’s independent accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

How to Vote

Votes can be cast online through ProxyVote, by phone at 800-454-8683, or in person at the meeting. A 16-digit control number is required—found on proxy materials for shares held directly with Computershare, or on the voting form from your broker for shares held in street name.

For in-person attendance, Tesla will select participants by random drawing due to limited seating at Giga Texas. The entry deadline is Friday, November 6, at 11:59 p.m. CT, and notifications to selected shareholders are planned to begin the week of November 16. Others can attend virtually or watch a public livestream.

What Else to Expect

The meeting’s theme is “Building a World of Amazing Abundance,” and the Q&A with Musk and other executives typically brings the biggest product updates. Expect news on Cybercab, FSD, Optimus, Semi, and possibly the new Roadster.

Shareholder meetings already stream with live video, unlike Tesla’s earnings calls, though Musk recently said the next earnings call will have video too.
