William Stein, a top 1% analyst from Truist Securities maintains TSLA with a hold rating and lowers their TSLA price target from $176.00 to $162.00, on Apr 24, 2024.
Truist Securities's William Stein lowered their price target on Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) by 8% from $176 to $162 on 2024/04/24. The analyst maintained their Hold rating on the stock.
Stein said, after taking in Tesla's Q1 2024 earnings report and participating in the earnings call, that "the results underperformed expectations, but management's messaging around new auto products and improving AI developments was a distinctly positive surprise intended to smooth the performance between the prior growth wave of Model 3/Y demand and the next growth wave around the next-gen vehicle ramp."
The analyst cautioned, however, "that risks remain elevated and include a big recent price cut, significant recent management dislocations, and the overhang from CEO Musk's compensation package dispute."
For Q1 2024, Tesla reported:
Management did not provide financial guidance, but did offer the following "outlook commentary:" Our company is currently between two major growth waves: the first one began with the global expansion of the Model 3/Y platform, and we believe the next one will be initiated by advances in autonomy and introduction of new products, including those built on our next generation vehicle platform.
"In 2024, our vehicle volume growth rate may be notably lower than the growth rate achieved in 2023, as our teams work on the launch of the next-generation vehicle and other products.
"In 2024, the growth rates of energy storage deployments and revenue in our Energy Generation and Storage business should outpace the Automotive business.
"Cash We have sufficient liquidity to fund our product roadmap, long-term capacity expansion plans and other expenses.
"Furthermore, we will manage the business such that we maintain a strong balance sheet during this uncertain period.
"We have updated our future vehicle line-up to accelerate the launch of new models ahead of our previously communicated start of production in the second half of 2025.
"These new vehicles, including more affordable models, will utilize aspects of the next-generation platform as well as aspects of our current platforms, and will be able to be produced on the same manufacturing lines as our current vehicle line-up.
"This update may result in achieving less cost reduction than previously expected but enables us to prudently grow our vehicle volumes in a more Capex-efficient manner during uncertain times.
"This would help us fully utilize our current expected maximum capacity of close to three million vehicles, enabling more than 50% growth over 2023 production before investing in new manufacturing lines.
"Our purpose-built robotaxi product will continue to pursue a revolutionary “unboxed” manufacturing strategy."
