Tesla's next earnings report, for Q4 2026 (October–December 2026), is expected in late January 2027, after the US market close. Tesla has not confirmed the date yet; its last two Q4 reports came out on January 29, 2025 and January 28, 2026. The most recent report, Q3 2026, was released on October 21, 2026: adjusted EPS of $0.48 beat estimates, revenue of $28.05 billion was roughly in line, and the stock fell 3.08% the next day.

Last updated: October 23, 2026. Status: next date estimated, not yet confirmed by Tesla.

When is Tesla's next earnings report?

Tesla's next earnings report covers the fourth quarter of 2026 and is expected in the last week of January 2027. Tesla's fiscal year matches the calendar year, so Q4 means October to December. Tesla has confirmed recent report dates in its quarterly deliveries release, which for Q4 comes out in the first days of January.

Company: Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA)
Quarter: Q4 2026 (October–December 2026)
Expected date: late January 2027, after market close
Earnings webcast: usually 5:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. CT, on Tesla Investor Relations
Before that: Q4 2026 deliveries, expected in early January 2027
Status: estimated

What time is Tesla earnings in my time zone?

The January report falls on US standard time (EST, UTC−5), so Beijing is 13 hours ahead of New York, not 12 as in October. Assuming Tesla keeps its usual schedule:

New York (EST): results shortly after the 4:00 p.m. close; webcast at 5:30 p.m.
London (GMT): results after 9:00 p.m.; webcast at 10:30 p.m.
Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore (UTC+8): results after 5:00 a.m. the next day; webcast at 6:30 a.m.
Tokyo, Seoul (UTC+9): results after 6:00 a.m. the next day; webcast at 7:30 a.m.

In recent quarters, Tesla's results filing has reached the SEC between about 4:06 p.m. and 4:36 p.m. ET.

What is Tesla expected to report for Q4 2026?

Tesla does not give quarterly revenue or earnings guidance. The main forward number it has given is capital spending: on the October 21 call, management cut its 2026 capex outlook to about $20 billion, from more than $25 billion previously (Yahoo Finance). Revenue and EPS consensus for Q4 2026 will be added here once Q4 deliveries are out in early January.

Four lines tend to decide how a Tesla report is read. Each comes from Tesla's own quarterly update.

Adjusted EPS vs consensus: Tesla beat in Q3 2026 ($0.48 vs $0.44), but missed in 9 of the 13 quarters since Q3 2023
Regulatory credits: $113 million in Q3 2026, down from $417 million a year earlier
Capex and cash flow: $4.73 billion of capex in Q3 2026, with free cash flow of $1.53 billion
Deliveries: the Q4 2026 figure, due in early January, is the first hard number for the quarter

For the bigger picture behind these numbers, see the Tesla stock guide on deliveries, margins and robotaxi.

What did Tesla report last quarter?

On October 21, 2026, Tesla reported Q3 2026 (July–September 2026) revenue of $28.05 billion, roughly flat from a year earlier and close to the $28.13 billion Bloomberg consensus. Adjusted EPS was $0.48, ahead of the $0.44 expected (Yahoo Finance). Deliveries for the quarter had already been reported on October 2: 486,532 vehicles, about 5% above Tesla's company-compiled consensus.

Automotive gross margin excluding regulatory credits: 18.1%, up from 16.3% in Q2 2026
Regulatory credit revenue: $113 million, down from $417 million a year earlier
Energy generation and storage revenue: $2.88 billion, down 16% year over year
Free cash flow: $1.53 billion, after $4.73 billion of capex
2026 capex outlook: about $20 billion, cut from more than $25 billion

The stock closed 3.41% higher at $386.47 on the day of the report, then fell 3.08% to $374.58 the next day, when a broad tech selloff also pulled the Nasdaq sharply lower. Coverage of the drop pointed to falling profit and to Musk's 2030 target of 5 million vehicles a year (Yahoo Finance).

How did TSLA trade on MEXC after the last report?

MEXC's TESLA_USDT perpetual futures contract (1 contract = 0.01 TSLA) trades 24/7. After the Q3 2026 release, it drifted lower through the Asian session and then swung sharply at the US open.

4:00 p.m. ET, Oct 21 (US close): 386.90 USDT
5:00 p.m. ET, Oct 21 (5:00 a.m. Beijing): 388.75 USDT, up 0.48%
3:00 a.m. ET, Oct 22 (3:00 p.m. Beijing): 370.29 USDT, down 4.29%
9:00 a.m. ET, Oct 22 (30 minutes before the US open): 373.10 USDT, down 3.57%
10:00 a.m. ET, Oct 22 (30 minutes after the open): 386.93 USDT, flat

By Beijing afternoon the contract was pointing the same way as the stock's 3.08% decline, but the first hour of US trading erased that move before the stock fell back. After Q2 2026 the pattern was different: the contract had covered about half of TSLA's 14.52% drop before the open. 24/7 trading lets you place orders outside US market hours, but it does not mean prices are discovered around the clock: liquidity is thinner overnight, and the contract can still gap when the cash market opens.

Tesla earnings history: results vs estimates and stock reaction

Tesla's adjusted EPS beat consensus in only 4 of the 13 quarters from Q3 2023 to Q3 2026, and revenue beat in 4.

The average next-day move was 8.5% in either direction, and 5 of the 13 reports moved the stock 10% or more, from a 14.52% drop after Q2 2026 to a 21.92% gain after Q3 2024.

Sources and method: actual results as first reported in Tesla's quarterly update decks, filed with the SEC as 8-K exhibits; estimates are LSEG consensus as reported by CNBC on each report day, except Q3 2026, which uses Bloomberg consensus; prices are split-adjusted closes from Yahoo Finance. From Q1 2025, Tesla's adjusted earnings exclude gains and losses on its bitcoin holdings, which is why figures such as the $173 million unrealized bitcoin loss in Q1 2026 do not appear in adjusted EPS. Q4 2024 adjusted EPS was later recast to $0.60 on that basis. "Next day" compares the report-day close with the following trading day's close. Past reactions do not predict future ones.
