The stock price remained flat after the initial report, but began dropping during the earnings call as CEO Elon Musk and other executives failed to deliver precise specs and start of delivery dates for the Cybertruck, and for a robotaxi-ready vehicle.

The stock was down as much as 5% after hours. $TSLA Tesla Q2 FY23: • Revenue +47% Y/Y to $24.9B ($200M beat). • Gross margin 18% (-7pp Y/Y). • Operating margin 10% (-5pp Y/Y). • Capex +19% Y/Y to $2.1B. • Free cash flow +62% Y/Y to $1.0B. • Non-GAAP EPS $0.91 ($0.09 beat). • Deliveries +83% Y/Y to 466,140.
