After lackluster Model 3 deliveries, Tesla is expected to post a loss of 69 cents per share on revenue of $5.2 billion for Q1 2019, according to a consensus of analysts surveyed by Refinitiv.
Tesla is expected to report first-quarter earnings after the markets close Wednesday in the company's first report after losing a valuable tax credit for its buyers on Jan. 1.
The company previously warned that first-quarter income will"be negatively impacted" because of"lower than expected delivery volumes and several pricing adjustments." Tesla said earlier this month it delivered 63,000 cars during the quarter, well below analysts' consensus estimates of 76,000. A $7,500 federal tax credit paid to buyers of its electric cars was cut in half Jan. 1, depressing demand in the first quarter.
They are looking to understand whether Tesla can profitably make the Model 3 after several price changes. Tesla briefly lowered the price of the Model 3 to $35,000 as originally promised, but quickly raised prices again.
