Tesla reports surprise profit, stock surges

Tesla reported its third-ever profit in its eight years as a public company.

The electric car-maker blew past expectations for revenue and earnings, reporting adjusted EPS of $2.90 per share on revenue of $6.82 billion. This exceeded average analyst expectations of losses of 15 cents per share on revenue of $6.32 billion. The company brought in an adjusted $516 million for the quarter.

The period ending September 30 “was a truly historic quarter for Tesla,” the company said in a statement. “Model 3 was the best-selling car in the US in terms of revenue and the 5th best-selling car in terms of volume.”

The Tesla 2018 Q3 earnings report is in, and as CEO Elon Musk had predicted, the company recorded a profit. And, at $2.90 a share, not a tiny one either.

Like last time, we will listen live and fill you in on the most notable bits, crossing our fingers for information about what to expect from the company with regards to progress and products.
