Shares for Tesla are trading at roughly $902 (£655.59) by noon EDT on Friday, just two days after the electric vehicle maker showed company records in both revenue and profits.

Today’s upgrade marks the first time since January the company made an intraday record.

Tesla’s market cap stood at roughly $850bn by noon Friday.

Third quarter financials

Tesla’s total revenue increased 57% year-over-year, while operating income improved to $2bn compared to the same time in 2020, resulting in a 14.6% operating margin.

Year-over-year, operating income is up due to vehicle volume growth and cost reduction, while some of the quarter’s positives were partially offset by growth in operating expenses, lower regulatory credit revenue, additional supply chain costs and Bitcoin-related impairment of $51m.

Meanwhile, Tesla vehicle deliveries represent only one measure of the company’s financial performance and should not be relied on as an indicator of quarterly financial results.
