“A noteworthy result in November was Buenos Aires based e-commerce leader Mercadolibre, Inc. (NASDAQ:MELI), which posted another impressive quarterly result despite ongoing macro concerns. The company delivered net revenue growth of 45% year-on-year in U.S. dollar terms along with a steady increase in operating profitability, with operating margins increasing 240 basis points to 11%. Its marketplace business experienced strong growth across all key markets – namely Brazil, Argentina and Mexico – and generated $8.6 billion in gross merchandise value, up 32% year-on-year. It was also pleasing to see unique buyers increase 10% to 42.5 million and items purchased per buyer remain broadly stable, indicating stickiness among recently acquired users and market share gains in some of its largest markets, particularly Brazil.”
