Earlier this week, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) announced a huge milestone in its energy-storage deployment. In its statement, the automotive and clean energy company revealed that during the first quarter of this year, 4053 MWh of energy-storage products had been deployed. This represents the highest deployment made by the company in a quarter to date.
During the same period, the company produced more than 433,000 vehicles, with about 387,000 of them being delivered to clients.
Tesla’s production figures include more than 412,000 Model Y and Model 3 vehicles, which are its highest-volume models. Deliveries of this duo made up 369,783 units, with 2% being subjected to operating lease accounting. Other models recorded production of almost 21,000 units and deliveries, with 17,000 of those being delivered to clients. About 1% of the vehicles were under operating lease accounting.
In its statement, Tesla explained that the decline in delivery volumes was partly because of disruptions at its factories caused by shipping diversions that stemmed from an arson attack at Gigafactory Berlin and the Red Sea conflict. The statement also noted that the first phase of the production ramp up of the updated Model 3 also played a role in reduced delivery volumes.
The multinational automotive company plans to release its latest financial results after market close on April 23, 2024. Following the release, Tesla will provide a link to the last quarter’s update on its website.
Additionally, company management plans to host a live Q&A webcast at 4:30 p.m. CT that same day to discuss the business and financial outcomes and the company’s outlook. The webcast will be available for replay on Tesla’s investor relations website, with an archived version being made available a few hours after the live sessions.
The company has, in the past, stressed that its energy-storage deployment and vehicle delivery figures are just two of many metrics of its financial performance and shouldn’t be regarded as definitive indicators of quarterly financial results. It notes that financial results are influenced by different factors, including cost of sales, average price of sale and foreign-exchange movements. Comprehensive details on Tesla’s financial performance shall be provided in the report for the quarter ending March 10, 2024.
In other news, the automotive manufacturer is planning to ward off cheaper competition from China with the unveiling of its $25,000 electric car through the use of an unboxed approach. The approach, Tesla believes, could decrease manufacturing footprints by more than 40% and allow it to build plants faster and for less cost.
