Can Tesla ETFs Maintain Rally Going into Q2 Earnings?
Electric carmaker Tesla Motors is scheduled to report results for the second quarter of 2024 on Jul 23, after market close.
Tesla has surged 65.3% over the past three months, outperforming the industry's growth of 47.3%. In particular, Tesla has experienced a dramatic surge this month, with the share price surging 20.9%.
This has helped the EV maker to erase most of the losses suffered in the first half of the year. The strong trend is likely to continue if Tesla comes up with an earnings beat. The electric carmaker saw favorable earnings estimate revision for the to-be-reported quarter, which is generally a precursor to an earnings beat (read: Can Tesla ETFs Maintain New-Found Winning Momentum?).
Earnings Whispers
Tesla has an Earnings ESP of -4.13% and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). According to our methodology, the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 increases the chances of an earnings beat. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they're reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
The electric carmaker saw a positive earnings estimate revision of a couple of cents over the past 30 days for the to-be-reported quarter. Analysts increasing estimates right before earnings — with the most up-to-date information possible — is a good indicator for the stock. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the second quarter indicates a substantial year-over-year earnings decline of 31.9% and revenue growth of 0.8%. The earnings track record of the company is not good as it delivered a four-quarter average negative earnings surprise of 1.55%.
Strong Q2 Deliveries
Earlier this month, Tesla reported stronger-than-expected vehicle delivery numbers, which point to improved demand that may help ease concerns around excess inventory for its flagship Model 3/Y.
This leading electric carmaker delivered 443,956 (422,405 Model 3/Y and 21,551 other models) cars worldwide in the second quarter. Though deliveries declined 4.8% from the year-ago quarter, the number was better than the 436,000 that analysts had expected. The annual drop in sales reflects the increased competition in the electric vehicles market.
The sales of electric vehicles were at a slower pace, which resulted in investors demanding each car sold be more profitable than before. Tesla produced 410,831 (386,576 Model 3/Y, and 24,255 other models) vehicles during the quarter (read: Tap Tesla's Better-Than-Expected Q2 Deliveries With These ETFs).
