Our net income and cash flow results will be announced along with the rest of our financial performance when we announce Q3 earnings. Tesla vehicle deliveries and storage deployments represent only two measures of the Company’s financial performance and should not be relied on as an indicator of quarterly financial results, which depend on a variety of factors, including average selling price, cost of sales, foreign exchange movements and others as to be disclosed in the 10-Q for the quarter ended on September 30, 2026. Vehicle production and delivery numbers represent passenger vehicles sold to customers.

Profitability $0.4B GAAP operating income $1.1B GAAP net income $1.2B non-GAAP net income1 Q2 was a strong quarter for our core vehicle, energy and services businesses as well as our manufacturing, infrastructure and AI initiatives. Our focus remains on strengthening these core businesses and making the necessary investments that will deliver Amazing Abundance. Tesla generated over $100B in revenue on a trailing twelve-month basis for the first time. We achieved record second-quarter vehicle deliveries, with continued growth in new markets and strength in established markets. Our Energy Storage business returned to growth, achieving its second-best quarterly deployment number and record deployments on a trailing twelve-month basis. The Services and Other business achieved record profitability and margin in the quarter. Cybercab began production at Gigafactory Texas, and Tesla Semi remains on track for production this year at our new factory in Nevada. Progress also continued on battery pack capacity expansion – the main limiting factor to near-term vehicle production volume increase. Megafactory Texas is nearing completion, with start of production planned for this year. Additionally, site selection, preparation, construction and equipment procurement progressed in the quarter for solar and semiconductor manufacturing. FSD (Supervised)4 penetration continued to grow in the quarter with more customers opting for subscription at the time of vehicle purchase. Robotaxi rollout continued in the U.S. and is now live in seven major metros5. Construction at our Fremont Factory for Optimus began after we decommissioned the Model S & X lines, with anticipated production later this year. Tesla is in its largest and most exciting period of investment. From here, there remains much hard work as we aim to revolutionize transportation, energy and productivity through our leading real-world AI. Scaling will be non-linear, and we are focused on long-term value creation. We’ve never been more optimistic about the future.
