Tesla's Q1 revenue sees year-over-year increase, while profits dropped

Tesla's first-quarter revenue saw a year-over-year increase while its profits dropped, prompting its shares to fall about 3.5% after market-close Wednesday.

Tesla’s first-quarter revenue saw a year-over-year increase while its profits dropped, prompting its shares to fall about 3.5% after market-close Wednesday.

The company reported generating $23.33 billion in overall first-quarter revenue, increasing 24% compared to the same period in the prior year. Of that total revenue figure, it included $19.96 billion of automotive, $1.53 billion of energy generation and storage and $1.84 billion of services and other revenues. Refinitiv estimates had put Tesla’s first-quarter revenue lower, at $23.21 billion.

For net income, Tesla said it fell 24% from $3.32 billion in 2022’s Q1, coming in at $2.51 billion.

Diluted earnings-per-share (EPS), meanwhile, met Refinitiv expectations. Tesla, run by Elon Musk, saw diluted EPS of $0.85, marking a 21% plunge year-over-year.

The company’s operating margin was 11.4%. It has experienced a 779 basis-point drop year-over-year from the first quarter of 2021, when it was 19.2%.

"Although we implemented price reductions on many vehicle models across regions in the first quarter, our operating margins reduced at a manageable rate," Tesla said. "We expect ongoing cost reduction of our vehicles, including improved production efficiency at our newest factories and lower logistics costs, and remain focused on operating leverage as we scale."

Most recently, Tesla lowered some prices Tuesday, with those cuts affecting certain Model Y and Model 3 vehicles.
