S U M M A R Y

Last year, our story was about ramping the Model 3. While total volumes are expected to grow by approximately 50% in 2019, this year our focus has been cost control and preparing for our next phase of growth.

Despite reductions in the average selling price (ASP) of Model 3 as global mix stabilizes, our gross margins have strengthened. Additionally, operating expenses are at the lowest level since Model 3 production started. As a result, we returned to GAAP profitability in Q3 while generating positive free cash flow.This was possible by removing substantial cost from our business.

We have also dramatically improved the pace of execution and capital efficiency of new production lines. Gigafactory Shanghai was built in 10 months and is ready for production, while it was ~65% less expensive (capex per unit of capacity) to build than our Model 3 production system in the US. Continued volume growth and cost control are an important combination for achieving sustained, industry-leading profitability.

Revenue

Compared to Q3 of 2018, the percentage of leased vehicles has tripled and alone has impacted revenue by the majority of the YoY

decrease. Model 3 mix has increased while we have taken actions leading to the reduction of the ASP of our products. These ASP reductions

are particularly impacted by the launch of the Standard Range trims of Model 3 and pricing actions earlier in the year.

We are positioned to accelerate our growth further through Gigafactory Shanghai, Model Y and also through increasing build rates on our

existing production lines. These capacity increases will allow for higher total vehicle deliveries and associated revenue. We also expect to

gradually release nearly $500M of accumulated deferred revenue tied to Autopilot and Full Self Driving features.

Profitability

GAAP Automotive gross margin improved by 393bp QoQ to 22.8% (improved by 366bp QoQ excluding regulatory credits). Margin was

impacted in part due to fundamental improvements in our operating efficiency, including higher fixed cost absorption, reductions in

manufacturing and material costs and continued improvements in vehicle quality and in part due to Smart Summon-related deferred

revenue recognition, FX and other non-recurring items. Improved gross profit combined with a decline in operating expenses resulted in

material improvement of GAAP net income.

Cash

Quarter end cash and cash equivalents increased to $5.3B, driven by positive free cash flow of $371M. Note that operating cash flows are

negatively impacted by increased automotive leasing mix. Draws against our working capital facilities, including leases awaiting securitization,

are included in financing cash flows. Capex increased sequentially due to investments in Gigafactory Shanghai and Model Y preparations in

Fremont.

In Q3, we were able to deliver nearly as many Model 3 vehicles as we were able to produce.

Our Service network continued to expand in Q3. Reducing waiting times and improving service experience are our top priorities. We opened 11 new service centers in Q3 and added 68 Mobile Service vehicles to our fleet.

Our finished vehicle inventory levels reached just 17 days of sales(1)at the end of Q3, the lowest level of the past 3.5 years and 4x lower than industry average. Since our stated inventory levels include vehicles in transit and store vehicles, the true number of sellable inventory is materially lower.

1The industry reference for days of sales is calculated by dividing new car inventory by the trailing four quarters of deliveries and using 261 working days (source: Automotive News).

V E H I C L E C A P A C I T Y

Fremont

Model Y equipment installation is underway in advance of the planned launch next year. We are moving faster than initially planned, using learnings and efficiencies gained from our Gigafactory Shanghai factory design.

Capex per unit of capacity is forecasted to be about 50% lower than our current Model 3 production system in the United States.

Shanghai

We are already producing full vehicles on a trial basis, from body, to paint and to general assembly, at Gigafactory Shanghai. We have cleared initial milestones toward our manufacturing license and are working towards finalizing the license and meeting other governmental requirements before we begin ramping production and delivery of vehicles from Shanghai.

China is by far the largest market for mid-sized premium sedans. With Model 3 priced on par with gasoline powered mid-sized sedans (even before gas savings and other benefits), we believe China could become the biggest market for Model 3.

Europe

We are in the final stages of our site selection process. Our European Gigafactory is expected to produce both Model 3 and Model Y.

Autopilot & Full Self Driving

In September, we launched Smart Summon in the US which has been used more than one million times to date. This functionality allows car owners to summon their cars from up to 200 feet in a parking lot or driveway. Our neural network learning approach enables us to continue to iterate and improve functionality over time.

During Q3, we registered one accident for every 4.34 million miles driven in which drivers had Autopilot engaged. This compares to the national average of one accident for every 0.5 million miles based on NHTSA's most recent US data.

Vehicle Software

In September, we released our latest and most significant vehicle software update yet, called V10. This update introduced streaming video (i.e., YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, video tutorials), Spotify, Caraoke (i.e., in-car karaoke), additional games, improved search and other functionalities. This version of our infotainment system continues to lead the industry and lays an important foundation for things to come.

Powertrain

In addition to launching longer-range versions of the Model S and Model X in April, we have been able to increase the EPA range of the Model 3 Standard Range Plus from 240 miles to 250 miles. We accomplished these improvements by more efficient energy use rather than a costly increase to the battery size.

Our current shortest-range vehicle is on parity with the longest-range production EVs offered by other companies. Long-range models of each Model S, X and 3 continue to have 20-40% higher range than any other EV available.

Megapack - 3 MWh battery

Energy

Energy storage deployment reached an all-time high of 477 MWh in Q3. Additionally, we have recently introduced Tesla Megapack a 3 MWh battery pack, pre- assembled at the Gigafactory as a single unit. Such packaging allows for faster deployment and lower overall installation cost. First deliveries are planned to begin in Q4 2019.

We also launched a commercial solar configurator for small and medium enterprises, with standardized and transparent pricing. Solar deployments have started to grow sequentially once again. In Q3, we deployed 43 MW of solar, 48% more than in the prior quarter.

Tesla Insurance

In August, we launched Tesla Insurance for California customers, enabling many customers to reduce insurance costs by up to 20-30%. This total cost of ownership approach is an important step to make our cars more affordable. Since launching this product, we have seen strong interest from our new and existing customers in California and are working to expand insurance into additional markets.

O U T L O O K

Vehicle Deliveries

Deliveries should increase sequentially and annually, with some expected fluctuations from seasonality. We are

highly confident in exceeding 360,000 deliveries this year.

Cash Flow

Positive quarterly free cash flow going forward, with possible temporary exceptions, particularly around the

launch and ramp of new products. We continue to believe our business has grown to the point of being self-

funding.

Profitability

Positive GAAP net income going forward, with possible temporary exceptions, particularly around the launch

and ramp of new products. Continuous volume growth, capacity expansion, and cash generation remain the

main focus.

Product

Trial production of Model 3 in Shanghai has begun, ahead of schedule. We are also ahead of schedule to produce

Model Y and now expect to launch by summer 2020. We are planning to produce limited volumes of Tesla Semi

in 2020 and are hoping to announce soon the location of our European Gigafactory for production in 2021.
