This just sounds like PR to me.

If the production costs (labor, parts etc) happened over a lengthy period and then they recognized profit for 109 shipped cars in July... of course they have a profitable month in July. I'd want to examine the end to end costs of the cars.

Also there fixed costs and I really doubt they have even come close to covering the fixed costs associated with automobile production.

I'm really glad they are profitable for July, it means they might be only a few years away from mass producing these babies.
