Tesla confirms Q3 earnings call for October 21
Tesla confirmed via an SEC 8-K that its Q3 2026 earnings release and conference call will come after market close on October 21, with the Q&A webcast starting at 5:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. CT) — the next checkpoint for investors after deliveries of 486,532 vehicles beat consensus.
Tesla officially confirmed the timing of its Q3 earnings report in an 8-K filed with the SEC on October 2 (Results of Operations and Financial Condition). The report will come after U.S. markets close on Wednesday, October 21, with management's live Q&A webcast starting at 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time (4:30 p.m. Central). The webcast will stream live on Tesla's investor relations site (ir.tesla.com), with a replay available roughly two hours after it ends.
The confirmation follows the Q3 production and delivery results announced on October 2 (486,532 vehicles delivered, more than 20,000 above consensus), which were already covered in a separate card. What's new here is the official date and time for the full earnings report and call, which had previously only been a placeholder.
As a result, the Q3 earnings-call entry on Tesla's investor calendar moves from a tentative October 22 date to a confirmed October 21. The next watch points are revenue and margin figures, along with management commentary on robotaxi and Optimus commercialization progress.
