Tesla, Inc. on Monday said it delivered 26,150 vehicles in the third quarter and raised its full-year outlook to 100,000 vehicles. That would represent a 31% yearly increase for deliveries and would mitigate lingering uncertainty about the company’s ability to overcome production glitches. “Production should continue to ramp and we believe Model S and X demand remains strong,” wrote Ben Kallo, a senior research analyst at Baird in a Tuesday note. “We would be aggressive buyers on any weakness.” Kallo noted strong demand for Tesla’s products, upcoming new product launches including a Semi Truck, and announcements about new technologies such as Tesla Energy. Shares in the company have gained 60% in the year-to-date, compared to a 13% gain for the S&P 500 .
