Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
MercadoLibre’s strength across the marketplace and non-marketplace businesses is expected to get reflected in third-quarter results. The company’s growing initiatives toward strengthening the fintech business are expected to contribute well to its upcoming results. Our estimate for the Fintech operation’s third-quarter revenues is pegged at $1.52 billion, indicating a 24.2% increase from the year-ago quarter.
The increasing adoption of MercadoPago due to the well-performing merchant services and mobile wallet businesses is expected to have driven the company’s total payment volume in the quarter to be reported.
MercadoLibre’s strong key offerings, especially online-to-offline offerings, are expected to have consistently aided the top line in the to-be-reported quarter. Robust mobile-point-of-sale services are anticipated to have bolstered transactions per unique active device in the soon-to-be-reported quarter.
MercadoLibre’s efforts to bolster the e-commerce business by promoting branding and loyalty are likely to have driven growth in its unique buyer base in the third quarter. Solid shipping services are expected to have helped the company deliver an enhanced shopping experience to customers in the quarter to be reported. It is likely to have contributed to shipment growth via MercadoEnvios in the third quarter.
Rising investments by the company in its logistics services are anticipated to have supported the performance of its delivery system in the quarter to be reported. We forecast that the company’s Commerce business unit’s third-quarter revenues would have grown 30% year over year to $1.90 billion.
However, increasing warehousing costs for managed networks and expenses related to infrastructure transitions on public clouds are likely to have impacted MELI’s profitability in the quarter under review.
