Key Takeaways

  • Tesla will report first-quarter earnings after the market closes on Tuesday as analysts remain divided on the electric vehicle maker.
  • Revenue and adjusted profits are expected to fall year-over-year as deliveries and production have disappointed.
  • The EV maker's stock has suffered as the company has been the center of protests and controversy over CEO Elon Musk's political efforts.

Tesla (TSLA) is scheduled to post its first-quarter earnings report after Tuesday's closing bell. Analysts are divided on the electric vehicle maker leading up to the results.

Analysts tracked by Visible Alpha are split between 10 "buy" ratings, four "hold," and four "sell" ratings. Ahead of last quarter's report, the distribution was nine "buy," six "hold," and three "sell" ratings.

The mean price target, $310 per Visible Alpha data, represents a roughly 36% premium to its close on Monday—but that average target is down about $52 from the average prior to last quarter's earnings.

Tesla is expected to report a less than 1% decline in revenue to $21.1 billion, with adjusted 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:earnings per share (EPS) forecast to fall by nearly 8% year-over-year to $0.41. The revenue estimate has been cut 17%, while the adjusted EPS consensus has fallen by over 40% since last quarter's report was released.

Deliveriesꦯ, Production Fell Short Amid Political Concꩲerns

Last week, Reuters reported that the company has paused shipments of parts from China for its semi trucks and Cybercab autonomous taxi because of the Trump administration's tariffs, potentially delaying production and release of the vehicles.

The company's deliveries and production numbers 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:fell short of estimates for the second 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:straight quarter when they were released earlier this month. The EV maker has also been the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:center of protests and controversy regarding CEO Elon Musk's involvement in the Trump administration. Sales 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:have declined in several key markets so far this year.

Tesla stock was 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:one of the worst performers in the S&P 500 in the first quarter. Analysts, including 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:those most bullish on the EV maker, 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:have cut estimates for deliveries and profits this year, along with price targets. Some have called for 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Musk to step back from his political efforts to 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:focus on Tesla as the stock has slid.

Tesla shares have roughly returned to their 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:pre-election levels around $240, falling from a Dec. 17 record close of $479.86.
