HIGHLIGHTS SUMMARY
Profitability $0.4B GAAP operating income In Q1, we accomplished an industry first: simultaneously changing over production lines across
all factories for the world’s best-selling vehicle4 – the Model Y. The Tesla team successfully
$0.4B GAAP net income ramped our production lines across four factories while managing supply chains across three
continents without any major disruptions, demonstrating the advancement of our operational
$0.9B non-GAAP net income1 and supply chain management capabilities.
AI is a major pillar of growth for Tesla and the broader economy and key to our pursuit of
sustainable abundance. Furthermore, AI infrastructure is driving rapid load growth, which,
along with traditional utility customer applications, is creating an outsized opportunity for our
Energy storage products to stabilize the grid, shift energy when it is needed most and provide
Cash Operating cash flow of $2.2B additional power capacity. While the current tariff landscape will have a relatively larger impact
on our Energy business compared to automotive, we are taking actions to stabilize the business
Free cash flow2 of $0.7B in the medium to long-term and focus on maintaining its health.
$0.4B increase in our cash and investments3 to $37.0B Uncertainty in the automotive and energy markets continues to increase as rapidly evolving
trade policy adversely impacts the global supply chain and cost structure of Tesla and our peers.
This dynamic, along with changing political sentiment, could have a meaningful impact on
demand for our products in the near-term. We remain committed to expanding our business
model to include delivering autonomous robots across multiple form factors and use cases –
powered by our real-world AI expertise – to our customers and for use in our factories, as we
Operations New Model Y ramp outpacing all past ramps navigate these headwinds.

we have built provides advantages in delivering the best products at the right price to our

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Revenue Total revenue decreased 9% YoY to $19.3B. YoY, revenue was impacted by the following items:
- decline in vehicle deliveries, in part due to the Model Y update across all four vehicle factories
- reduced vehicle average selling price (ASP) (excl. FX impact1), due to mix and sales incentives
- negative FX impact of $0.3B1
+ growth in Energy Generation and Storage and Services and Other
+ higher regulatory credit revenue
Profitability Our operating income decreased 66% YoY to $0.4B, resulting in a 2.1% operating margin. YoY, operating income was primarily impacted
by the following items:
Cash Quarter-end cash, cash equivalents and investments was $37.0B. The sequential increase of $0.4B was primarily the result of positive free cash
flow of $0.7B.
5 (1) Impact is calculated on a constant currency basis. Actuals are compared against current results converted into USD using average exchange rates from Q1’24.

We achieved a fourth sequential record for Powerwall deployments, crossing 1 GWh for the first

sequentially. Megafactory Shanghai volumes did not contribute to quarterly deployments;
however, the factory produced over 100 Megapacks, with the Megapacks en-route to a Energy and Services and Other gross profit (TTM; $M)
customer. With a highly localized supply chain, 20 GWh of current annual capacity and the

OUTLOOK
Volume It is difficult to measure the impacts of shifting global trade policy on the automotive and energy supply chains, our cost structure and
demand for durable goods and related services. While we are making prudent investments that will set up both our vehicle and energy
businesses for growth, the rate of growth this year will depend on a variety of factors, including the rate of acceleration of our autonomy
efforts, production ramp at our factories and the broader macroeconomic environment. We will revisit our 2025 guidance in our Q2
update.
Cash We have sufficient liquidity to fund our product roadmap, long-term capacity expansion plans and other expenses. Furthermore, we will
manage the business such that we maintain a strong balance sheet during this uncertain period.
Profit While we continue to execute on innovations to reduce the cost of manufacturing and operations, over time, we expect our hardware-
related profits to be accompanied by an acceleration of AI, software and fleet-based profits.
Product Plans for new vehicles, including more affordable models, remain on track for start of production in the first half of 2025. These vehicles
will utilize aspects of the next generation platform as well as aspects of our current platforms and will be produced on the same
manufacturing lines as our current vehicle lineup.
This approach will result in achieving less cost reduction than previously expected but enables us to prudently grow our vehicle volumes in
a more capex efficient manner during uncertain times. This should help us fully utilize our current expected maximum capacity of close to
three million vehicles, enabling more than 60% growth over 2024 production before investing in new manufacturing lines.
Our purpose-built Robotaxi product – Cybercab – will continue to pursue a revolutionary “unboxed” manufacturing strategy and is
scheduled for volume production starting in 2026.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
WEBCAST INFORMATION
Tesla will provide a live webcast of its first quarter 2025 financial results conference call beginning at 4:30 p.m. CT on April 22, 2025 at ir.tesla.com. This webcast will also be available for replay for approximately one year thereafter.
CERTAIN TERMS
When used in this update, certain terms have the following meanings. Our vehicle deliveries include only vehicles that have been transferred to end customers with all paperwork correctly completed. Our energy product deployment volume includes
both customer units when installed and equipment sales at time of delivery. “Net income attributable to common stockholders (non-GAAP)" is equal to (i) net income attributable to common stockholders before (ii)(a) stock-based compensation expense,
net of tax and (b) digital assets loss (gain), net of tax. "Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)" is equal to (i) net income attributable to common stockholders before (ii)(a) interest expense, (b) provision for income taxes, (c) depreciation, amortization and
impairment, (d) stock-based compensation expense and (e) digital assets loss (gain), net. "Free cash flow" is operating cash flow less capital expenditures. Average cost per vehicle is cost of automotive sales divided by new vehicle deliveries (excluding
operating leases). “Days sales outstanding” is equal to (i) average accounts receivable, net for the period divided by (ii) total revenues and multiplied by (iii) the number of days in the period. “Days payable outstanding” is equal to (i) average accounts
payable for the period divided by (ii) total cost of revenues and multiplied by (iii) the number of days in the period. “Days of supply” is calculated by dividing new car ending inventory by the relevant period's deliveries and using trading days. Constant
currency impacts are calculated by comparing actuals against current results converted into USD using average exchange rates from the prior period.
Consolidated financial information has been presented in accordance with GAAP as well as on a non-GAAP basis to supplement our consolidated financial results. Our non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to
common stockholders, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders on a diluted per share basis (calculated using weighted average shares for GAAP diluted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders), Adjusted EBITDA,
Adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Tesla’s historical performance as well as comparisons to the operating results of other companies. Management
believes that it is useful to supplement its GAAP financial statements with this non-GAAP information because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. Management also believes that
presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations, so that investors can see through the eyes of Tesla management regarding important financial
metrics that Tesla uses to run the business and allowing investors to better understand Tesla’s performance. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and therefore, should only be read in conjunction with
financial information reported under U.S. GAAP when understanding Tesla’s operating performance. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided above.
