Summary
Tesla Motors, Inc. (TSLA) filed an 8-K on February 19, 2014, to announce its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The primary purpose of this filing was to furnish the company's Shareholder Letter, which was posted on their website, providing investors with key financial and operational updates for the period.

Investors should refer to the attached Exhibit 99.1 for a comprehensive understanding of Tesla's financial condition and results of operations during this crucial period, as the 8-K itself does not contain the detailed financial figures but directs to the shareholder letter for that information.
