Earnings Summary
Tesla, Inc. is a global enterprise focused on electric vehicles, energy generation, and storage, operating through direct sales and a growing charging network. In Q4 2024 the company generated $25.7 billion in revenue and reported EPS of $0.73, slightly below the $0.76703 estimate, while Q1 2025 revenue reached $19.3 billion and EPS of $0.27 fell short of the $0.41468 forecast; Q2 2025 revenue rose to $22.5 billion with EPS of $0.40 versus the $0.40391 estimate, and Q3 2025 revenue climbed to $28.1 billion with EPS of $0.50 against the $0.55885 forecast, showing a pattern of revenue growth but recurring EPS misses in the most recent quarters. Historically, Tesla’s revenue has trended upward year‑over‑year, with each quarter’s sales beating estimates, yet EPS has frequently lagged behind guidance, reflecting margin pressures and investment spending. Recent developments include the launch of a Megacharger network for heavy‑duty trucks, the renaming of the Full Self‑Driving package to Assisted Driving in Europe, and a partnership with SpaceX and Terafab to accelerate chip design cycles, all of which signal strategic moves toward supply‑chain resilience and autonomous vehicle expansion.

TSLA's technical picture is under pressure, with momentum working against price. At this size, moves are driven by index flows and macro positioning as much as by company news.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into TSLA?

RICH

At today's price, Tesla, Inc. needs to grow free cash flow about 103.6% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 14.46% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 22.2% a year, so the market is asking for 81.3 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis TSLA looks priced above what its own growth record supports.

vs 200-day average

Up days (1y)
51%

Tesla, Inc. is currently running 28.2% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against TSLA's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 4th percentile — unusually subdued by its own history, against a typical reading of 47.4%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

TSLA is trading -25.2% below its running peak. Across 13 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -35.4%, and the deepest was -73.5% in 2022. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits -5.1% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 32nd percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year TSLA closed higher on 51% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 14 years of records, TSLA finished the month higher 5 of 14 times, with a median return of -1.6% and an average of +0.7%. Its strongest month historically has been June at +9.3% on average, its weakest March at -3.7%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: TSLA has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 159 of 3,274 sessions (4.9% of the time), with the largest gaps running +11.3% and -7.3%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

Across the last 3 dated reports on file, TSLA moved an average of 5.2% in the session after earnings, closing higher 0 of those 3 times, with a median move of -3.4% and a largest of -9.6%.

All figures computed from 3,275 daily closes between 2013-10-15 and 2026-10-14, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against TSLA's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.

Tesla postponed its long‑awaited Roadster livestream to October 15 after severe weather delayed the original October 1 date. The company confirmed the new date via X and noted that the event would be streamed live at 7:55 p.m. CST. The announcement helped lift TSLA shares by 0.4% in overnight trading, partially offsetting a nearly 3% decline earlier in the week. The rescheduling signals that Tesla remains committed to delivering the sports car, though no new technical details were disclosed. The move is viewed as a modest positive catalyst for the stock.
What did this article say?
Tesla announced on October 13 that its Cybercab Robotaxi fleet in Austin had grown eightfold within a month, reaching over 300 vehicles. The expansion marked a significant scaling milestone for the company’s autonomous ride‑share service. Elon Musk noted that the growth demonstrates the viability of the Robotaxi model, while acknowledging ongoing challenges such as night‑time visibility. The move positions Tesla to capture a larger share of the emerging autonomous mobility market in the U.S. market.
What did this article say?
Elon Musk announced that Tesla and SpaceX intend to test about ten chip designs annually at Terafab's Giga Texas research fab, aiming to shorten the typical two‑year development cycle to roughly one year. The initiative reflects a strategic shift toward in‑house chip manufacturing, potentially reducing dependence on external suppliers. By pursuing high‑risk, high‑payoff bets, the companies seek to improve supply‑chain resilience and accelerate product development. The announcement was viewed as a positive development for Tesla's technology roadmap.
What did this article say?
Tesla’s Cybertruck has fallen short of its 250,000‑unit annual sales target, with current sales accounting for only about 13% of the goal. Although the company’s overall third‑quarter deliveries exceeded analyst forecasts, the Cybertruck’s performance was weak. Tesla’s practice of aggregating sales into an “Other Models” category obscures the exact number of Cybertrucks sold.
What did this article say?
Tesla reported 486,532 vehicle deliveries in Q3, surpassing estimates, but the company’s automotive gross margin excluding regulatory credits fell sequentially from Q1 to Q2. Analysts highlighted that the margin decline signals a potential structural erosion of profitability, raising doubts about future earnings growth. The focus on gross margin in the upcoming earnings report reflects investor concern that the company’s cost base may be tightening, offsetting delivery gains. This development suggests a moderate negative impact on Tesla’s valuation, as margin pressure could limit upside potential.
What did this article say?
Tesla announced the launch of a Megacharger station in partnership with Pilot, targeting heavy‑duty truck operators along major U.S. freight corridors. The new charging point offers high‑power refueling designed to support the company’s Semi truck fleet. In parallel, Tesla became one of the first U.S. equities to be tokenized for blockchain trading on the Solana network via Securitize. These moves signal Tesla’s effort to broaden its ecosystem beyond consumer vehicles into freight logistics and digital asset infrastructure. While the initiatives add new revenue streams, they are incremental relative to the company’s overall business and do not represent a material shift in strategy.
What did this article say?
Tesla reported a 2.1% decline in Q3 2025 deliveries to 497,099 vehicles, a slight drop from the same period last year. Despite the decline, the volume remained well above analyst expectations, underscoring the company’s strong market position. The drop coincided with the end of the federal EV tax credit, which had previously driven a surge in purchases. Tesla’s performance was still described as stellar, indicating resilience amid a challenging competitive landscape. The company’s guidance for 2026 was not disclosed, leaving investors to gauge future expectations from other indicators.
What did this article say?
Tesla renamed its Full Self-Driving (Supervised) package to Assisted Driving in Europe after German regulators labeled the original name misleading. The change reflects the system’s limited capabilities, which still require driver attention for acceleration, braking, and steering. Tesla continues to market the package as Full Self-Driving in the U.S., where the NHTSA is investigating its performance in adverse conditions and potential traffic violations. The renaming signals regulatory pressure but does not alter the monthly $99 subscription fee. Overall, the move represents a modest headwind for Tesla’s European expansion efforts.
What did this article say?
Tesla delivered 95,366 China‑made electric vehicles in September, marking its 11th consecutive month of year‑over‑year growth despite a 2.1% decline in global deliveries. The Shanghai factory shipped Model 3 and Model Y units to China, Europe, Asia‑Pacific and Canada, with third‑quarter deliveries from Shanghai up 13.7% year‑over‑year. To sustain demand, Tesla is offering a 7,000‑yuan ($1,044) discount on selected Model Y versions and a 5,000‑yuan reduction on all Model 3 variants. The company’s domestic sales momentum supports its broader strategy to counter a global sales slump.
