How Has Tesla’s Earnings Per Share Changed Over The Last Four Years?
Even though Tesla’s reported revenue has grown ten-fold over the last four years and unit sales have grown nearly seventeen times, the Silicon Valley based auto maker has continued to lose money over the period. The main reasons for this have been: 1) the company’s investments in making its production more efficient; 2) scaling up its distribution; 3) investment in research and development; and, 4) expenditure on the development of the infrastructure required to support the company’s products, such as the network of charging stations. As a result, expenses have grown faster than revenue. This is expected to remain true for a few more years still.
