Trevor Milton, the 38-year-old founder of Nikola became
an instant multibillionaire with the company’s successful IPO.
Nikola, which makes electric and
hydrogen-powered trucks, saw its share price briefly top $37 after going
public, giving Milton a net worth of nearly $5 billion based on his share
ownership. The stock later settled back around $34, putting his net worth at
about $4.6 billion. Before the IPO, his stake in Nikola had been valued at
around $1 billion.
Interest in the company has been rising in recent months, and not just from investors ahead of the Nasdaq listing. In part, that’s due to the addition of Steve Girsky, a former vice-chairman of General Motors to Nikola’s board.

Nikola already has more
than 14,000 pre-orders for its vehicles worth $10 billion in potential revenue
and two-and-a-half years of production, the company said.
Nikola
will add Stephen Girsky, current CEO of VectoIQ and former vice-chairman of
General Motors Corp., to its board of directors.
The
merger will also allow the company to break ground on its state-of-the-art
manufacturing facility in Coolidge, Ariz., and begin its hydrogen station
infrastructure rollout, it said.
The
company expects to generate revenue by 2021 with the rollout of its BEV truck,
followed by FCEV truck sales starting in 2023, it said.
“We are
on a roll. You couldn’t ask for better news for the energy and tech industry,”
said Trevor Milton, founder and CEO of Nikola.
“We
believe we have a differentiated business model built on economics, not
government subsidies. We now need to double down and speed up the timelines and
get to market.”

Girsky said Nikola’s vision of a zero-emission future and ability to execute were key drivers in his company’s decision.
Milton
will serve as executive chairman of the combined company. Mark Russell, who has
more than 20 years of experience building and managing companies in the
manufacturing industry, will serve as the CEO of Nikola.

Hi tata Victor,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great work your are doing for the small man who would otherwise have to pay subscription to many so called gurus to get infor that is not even as sythesized as yours.
I bought your book from Amazon. Ordered it on a Friday night and it was delivered on Sunday afternoon. I finished reading by the end of that week and opened a questrade account.
Bought a few shares of your favorite NIKOLA at $63.7 after it dropped from around $80. Its up to $67 and apparently estimated that it will reach $79.
In your opinion, is $79 a realistic target in the short to medium term (i.e.1-2months)?
Also, I didnt seem to get the $50 credit from opening questrade account.
Hello Prof.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the support in buying my book. Hope you will find good value from the book.
I wouldn't have bought NKLA at the price of $63.7. However it is moving up at the moment over $70.00.
As already discussed, the $50 free trade will be documented on the account summary
Great info regarding Nicola, thanks for sharing
