Tesla released its third-quarter results on October 21. According to CNBC, adjusted earnings per share came in at USD 0.48 against an estimate of USD 0.43, while revenue reached USD 28.05 billion versus USD 27.9 billion expected. GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders fell to USD 787 million from USD 1.11 billion a year earlier.

Mixed operating picture

Revenue was broadly flat year over year. Automotive revenue fell to USD 20.56 billion, while services and other revenue rose to USD 4.605 billion, according to the company's results information and the CNBC report. Tesla's operating margin declined to 2.6 percent from 5.8 percent a year earlier.

Vehicle deliveries reached 486,532 in the quarter, while production totaled 464,391 units. Tesla also reported 13.7 gigawatt-hours of energy-storage deployments. The company's Investor Relations release had previously disclosed the production, delivery and storage figures.

Cash flow and valuation

Free cash flow was USD 1.531 billion, while cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled USD 45.447 billion at September 30. Management's continued spending on artificial intelligence, software and robotics creates a central investor question: whether those projects can offset near-term pressure on the automotive and energy businesses.
