In addition, during the financial report conference call, Elon Musk stated that both SpaceX and Tesla have established special committees composed of independent directors to study the potential possibility of a merger between the two companies.
If the transaction ultimately goes through, it is expected to become the largest corporate merger in history. Musk stated that there are "many benefits" to the merger, especially in terms of jointly developing "super intelligent" software and advancing businesses such as artificial intelligence and autonomous driving, where there is tremendous potential for collaboration. However, he emphasized that the committees of both companies have not yet reached an agreement on the terms of the deal, so the merger is not certain at this time.
