Marvin Fong has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Mercadolibre’s strong financial performance and growth potential. The company reported impressive results, particularly in its fintech segment, with total payment volume significantly exceeding expectations. Argentina emerged as a key growth driver, showcasing substantial macroeconomic improvements and remarkable revenue growth in both e-commerce and fintech sectors.
Mercadolibre’s strategic focus on improving credit quality in Brazil, along with its robust performance in Argentina, contributed to its strong EBITDA margins. Despite some challenges in Mexico, the company’s overall financial health remains solid, with higher-than-expected EBITDA and promising future estimates for GMV and TPV. These factors, coupled with the potential for significant EPS growth, support the increased price target and Buy rating from Marvin Fong.
