  • Tesla eyes Q4 2025 results as robotaxi bets shape outlook
    January 18, 2026, 8:20 AM EST. Tesla will report Q4 2025 earnings after the market closes on Jan. 28. The company delivered over 418,000 vehicles in Q4, down 16% year over year; full-year deliveries reached 1.64 million, down about 9%. Analysts expect EPS of $0.45 and revenue of $24.76 billion, declines from a year ago. The focus remains on the company's robotaxi (an autonomous taxi service) ambitions and humanoid robots, with a rollout in more cities anticipated this year. A Musk comment could move the stock, but caution is warranted against chasing a short-term move ahead of the report. The setup argues for a long-term horizon amid a still-rich valuation. The stock trades around $437.86 with a market cap near $1.5 trillion, underscoring its battleground status on Wall Street.
