In my opinion, another thing to think about possibly is what is your particular take on their direction, goals, product etc. Sure, we are here to make money with our investments but another aspect is what/who are you willing to support. There are companies I flat out will not support so I will not invest my money in them regardless of how good of an investment it is. Maybe that's naive or flat out dumb but I don't care. Meanwhile, there are others I invest in simply because I believe in what they are doing. Now that Tesla has paid back their loan and to me is showing they are serious about making a car versus get government loans, receive fat paychecks, and then declare bunkruptcy I may start looking into them, too. Could it pay off in the long run? I don't know. I do however believe in supporting real alternatives to energy and transportation. So, I think I'll put my money behind my beliefs to an extent of course. I'm certainly not going to bet the farm on this type of investment. Your opinion may vary.
