Tesla Is In Dire Need Of A Strong Fourth Quarter

Automotive company, Tesla Motors, required a high ramp production and it is expecting the same in the upcoming quarter.

Analysts say that it is difficult to overestimate fourth quarter for the Tesla Motors progress towards its growth targets for the whole year. It is not just the company’s next venture on full electric vehicles but also has few aggressive target sales regarding its total vehicle sales in 2015, most of which will require high sales during the fourth quarter to be achieved.

Model X SUV would begin deliveries at the end of third quarter. It is important for the Tesla car stakeholders because financial investors already have keen insight regarding the quarter’s progress. The automotive organization acknowledged that in its second quarter earnings release, the company planned to come across with 11,500 vehicles in the third quarter. With this direction shared more than a month into third quarter and considering the fact that the organization’s quarterly suggestion has been very precise in the past, it is probable that it would be up to the mentioned mark.

Many figures were posted during the third quarter but not accurate as Tesla. Nevertheless, given the unbelievable extent of the company’s expectations for the last quarter, institutional investors are expected to be most keen towards the outlook for fourth quarter at the time it revealed its third quarter result.

Regarding the whole year, Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) acknowledged in second quarter letter to the stakeholders that the organization is willing to put forward 50,000 to 55,000 vehicles. Assuming that the company has delivered around 21,600 vehicles from the starting of the year till now and in the third quarter, it plans to deliver 11,500 cars, it leaves around 19,400 deliveries for the last quarter, Q4.

Tesla’s main objective is to target deliveries between the range of 50,000 to 55,000, which includes the Model S and Model X cars in 2015. At the same time, the company’s equipment fitting and final testing of model X is progressing well. Many dependencies could affect the fourth quarter production and deliveries. The management is still analyzing the potential of many dealers to give high quality production parts in quantities, which are acceptable to meet strategy towards production. The company’s main objective is to build its production ramp stronger for the upcoming quarter among all its competitors. 

The electric vehicle manufacturer is striving for betterment and excellence but companies should understand that investors are skeptical and require proper assessment before any sort of investment. Thus, share prices also matter and should reflect the company’s struggle in positive terms to attract them.
