*This outlier ratio is based on a $2.2 billion stock option award to the CEO in 2018, the IPS report said. According to the Tesla proxy statement, this award will fully vest over 10 years if the company's market capitalization increases to $650 billion (from a current $42 billion) and if the CEO achieves 12 of 16 performance benchmarks.
