Elon Musk reached a settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over a 2022 suit alleging he failed to timely disclose his initial purchase of Twitter (now X) shares.

Musk did not admit wrongdoing and will not be required to return the roughly $150 million he said he saved by delaying disclosure. The settlement resolves a high-profile securities disclosure dispute tied to Musk’s purchase of a major social platform, underscoring regulatory scrutiny of large shareholders and disclosure timing in tech company ownership shifts.
Elon Musk has settled a SEC lawsuit over a 2022 delay in disclosing his initial Twitter stake, agreeing to have a trust pay a $1.5 million civil fine, the settlement filed Monday in federal court in Washington. The SEC had accused Musk of waiting 11 days before reporting a >5% position in Twitter, enabling purchases at lower prices before a 9.2% disclosure and seeking disgorgement of roughly $150 million plus fines. Musk denied wrongdoing, called the delay accidental and criticized the SEC’s actions as infringing on his free speech. The resolution closes a years-long series of disputes between Musk and the regulator tied to earlier 2018 tweets and other enforcement actions.
