Tesla Inc made good on Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk's promise that it would turn a profit in the third quarter.
The Silicon Valley electric carmaker said it made a net profit of $311.5 million in the quarter, still tiny when compared to the billions of dollars the company has burned through as it ramps up production of its Model 3 sedan.
Tesla also said it had free cash flow of $881 million.
