Tesla’s Q3 2025 Performance in Context Production and Deliveries The Q3 2025 delivery report shows a dramatic turnaround for Tesla. After declining deliveries in Q1 (336,681 vehicles) and Q2 (384,122) nasdaq.com, the company delivered 497,099 vehicles, smashing its prior record of roughly 463,000 from Q3 2024 businesswire.com.

First Brands Group Files for Chapter 11, Discloses $10–$50 Billion in Liabilities

First Brands Group Files for Chapter 11, Discloses $10–$50 Billion in Liabilities

The big questions remain how much debt can be restructured, who will control the reorganized firm, and what this means for competitors. Any final outcome (sale or restructuring) will likely emerge only after lengthy court proceedings in the coming months. Sources: First Brands’ Chapter 11 petition and press
