Tesla as a company is losing money because of its R&D / general spending, but on a unit basis (i.e. revenue from each car sold - cost of building the car), each Tesla sold is profitable.

You can see that by looking at their latest financial statements -- there is positive gross profit but a negative net income.
Good info, thank you.

Here is the interview, Tesla mentioned on minute 29'30"
