The final earnings release of 2024 finalized another difficult year for Tesla’s bottom line, as its full-year net income came in at $8.4 billion, a 23% decrease from 2023 and a 40% decline from 2022’s record $14.1 billion profit, though its full-year revenue rose $97.7 billion, a 1% improvement from 2023’s record.

Tesla ( TSLA 2.22%) shares initially shrugged off a weak earnings report before the stock got caught in the trade-war sell-off. The electric vehicle (EV) maker had a tough year in 2024, although Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk continues to be very upbeat about the future.
