Tesla reports earnings Wednesday with $26.4B revenue expected. Bulls cite demand momentum; Agar Capital flags $1T overvaluation. Full calendar ahead.
Tesla reports second-quarter earnings Wednesday after the close. Analysts expect revenue of $26.4 billion and earnings per share of $0.54. The company already disclosed Q2 deliveries of 480,126 vehicles and production of 451,758. Automotive gross margin excluding regulatory credits is expected to come in slightly above 18%, according to consensus.
Investor attention will center on updates around autonomy, software, the robotaxi rollout, and the AI4-AI5 chips. The capital expenditure needed to maintain Tesla's position in physical AI is another focus. The stock has slipped 2.6% on the session to $380.84; AlphaScala's proprietary score rates TSLA a 24 out of 100, labeled Weak.
Seeking Alpha analyst Yiannis Zourmpanos said Tesla enters earnings with momentum on its side. “The improvement in demand, rising analyst expectations, and strong execution show that the market could be undervaluing the stock’s potential earnings performance,” he added.
Agar Capital struck a different tone. The firm argues that a great company does not necessarily mean a great stock. It said Tesla's $1.5 trillion market cap is overvalued by $1 trillion for “businesses that still lack commercial scale, complete authorizations, verifiable unit economics, and significant FCF.”
