SUMMARY
  • Tesla's Q1 operating income beat consensus estimates by 38% (ours by 26%), while GAAP net income came in 42% above consensus (36% above ours).
  • The highly focused automotive gross margin (Ex-ZEV credits) came to 30% versus consensus estimates of 27.8% and ours of 27.5%. Costs were booked in R&D rather than COGS.
  • The results were solid, but the CFO cautioned on Q2 headwinds. Tesla was up by 5.6% in the after hours on these results, ignoring Tesla's cautious Q2 outlook.
