CandleFocus Bitcoin didn’t save Tesla — It just delayed the bigger problem

Tesla's Q4 earnings report was expected to disappoint, but a new accounting rule allowed the company to revalue its Bitcoin holdings and add $600 million to its net income. Despite falling demand, price cuts, and squeezed margins, the Bitcoin-driven boost helped Tesla post a net income of $2.3 billion, although investors responded negatively to the announcement. Financial analyst Gordon Johnson pointed out that 23% of Tesla's reported non-GAAP earnings per share came from the Bitcoin revaluation gain. Without the adjustment, Tesla's actual non-GAAP EPS would have been 27% lower than reported and missed expectations by 31%. Tesla's aggressive vehicle price cuts indicate struggles to maintain pricing power, while Bitcoin temporarily pads its earnings. Tesla is the sixth-largest public Bitcoin holder with 9,720 BTC, a fraction of what the company initially owned. Meanwhile, Elon Musk's X platform announced a partnership with Visa to launch a digital wallet and peer-to-peer payment service.
