Breaking Down Coherent: 9 Analysts Share Their Views

Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) finance chief, Vaibhav Taneja, has received a record-breaking compensation of $139 million in 2024, outpacing most CEOs and setting a new benchmark for CFOs.
What Happened: Taneja&#8217;s compensation package is the highest ever awarded to a CFO since modern disclosure standards began in 2006, exceeding the $86 million granted to Nikola&#8217;s CFO in 2020. Notably, Nikola has since filed for bankruptcy, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/tesla-sets-record-with-139-million-pay-package-for-finance-chief-0eb2e8e7?mod=hp_lead_pos6">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday. According to Equilar, that's also more than what most CEOs earn.
Taneja's compensation was primarily linked to stock options and equity grants awarded in October 2024, after his promotion to CFO in August 2023. The 47-year-old has been part of Tesla since 2017, holding several financial leadership positions.
The CFO received the award amid mixed Tesla&#8217;s performance: its stock surged after President Trump&#8217;s election, but global vehicle deliveries dropped for the first time in over a decade. In Q1, deliveries declined 13% and net profit plummeted 71%.

Why It Matters: Taneja&#8217;s record-breaking compensation comes at a time when Tesla&#8217;s financial performance has been under scrutiny. The company&#8217;s co-founder and CEO, <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44269713/elon-musk-challenges-judges-decision-seeks-reinstatement-of-record-56-billion-tesla-payout">Elon Musk</a>, is currently appealing a court decision that overturned his $56 billion payout, arguing that it significantly contributed to Tesla&#8217;s growth.
Notably, Tesla Inc. has amended its corporate bylaws to deter future shareholder lawsuits like the one that blocked Musk's record pay package. As of May 15, investors must own at least 3% of Tesla's shares to initiate or maintain a derivative lawsuit, according to a regulatory filing disclosed late Friday.
Furthermore, Taneja&#8217;s compensation surpasses that of the highest-paid CEO in America in 2024,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45192402/highest-paid-ceo-in-america-bagged-a-nine-figure-package-beating-tim-cook-satya-nadella-and-bob-iger">Jim Anderson</a>&nbsp;of Coherent Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>), who received a $101.5 million package. This prompts discussion about the sustainability of high compensation packages, particularly given Tesla&#8217;s recent financial performance.
Tesla stock lost 2.25% to close at $342.09 on Monday. Over the past month, it gained 50.37%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro. </a>

Tesla CFO Vaibhav Taneja Receives Record $139 Million Pay, Surpassing Most CEOs, Even As Elon Musk Faces Compensation Lawsuit

Coherent's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.8% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.90 million shares sold short, which is 5.45% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Coherent's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Coherent's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.49%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
