Guidance is by far the most important part of the entire Earnings Report event. Vehicle deliveries are the most important factor for the company right now because this is a growth investment and investors know Tesla will not turn a profit this quarter. Since everybody already knows what Tesla delivered in Q2 (11.5K Model S), everybody should be keeping their eyes on whether Model X is still on schedule and if 55K is still the goal for this year. I will also be interested in seeing how fast margins and R&D spending grow but don't think earnings, or losses in this case, are very important.
