I’m not a financial expert, but let me give my take:

Its value as a company is largely an imaginary idea. It was never worth what Musk paid for it, but it still had a remarkably high valuation based on its actual expenses and revenue.

I don’t know what the real numbers are, the revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities.

I would be shocked if a $75m loss of revenue was something they could easily shrug off.
