Tesla reported declining revenues and operating margins in Q3, with both its automobile and energy segments showing year-over-year revenue drops despite favorable market conditions like high fossil fuel prices. The operating margin was cut in half to 2.6%, while stock-based compensation doubled, further pressuring profitability and diluting shareholders.
