<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tesla today reported stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter results, but the company’s stock fell slightly in post-closing trading after the automaker warned that supply chain problems could persist throughout 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adjusted earnings per share were $2.52 per share, versus an expected $2.36.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company generated revenue of $17.72 billion, compared to an expected $16.57 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revenue rose 65% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, while total auto revenue was $15.97 billion, up 71%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Power generation and storage revenue was $688 million, down 8% and below StreetAccount’s forecast of $815.1 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur own factories have been running below capacity for several quarters as supply chain became the main limiting factor, which is likely to continue through 2022,\u201d the company said.
CEO Elon Musk alluded to the supply chain issues in a tweet Last November, writing, \u201cOh man, this year has been such a supply chain nightmare & it\u2019s not over! I will provide an updated product roadmap on next earnings call.\u201d
