Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $MercadoLibre (MELI.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Post the Q3 report, expectations for MercadoLibre's fiscal 2024 and 2025 have been moderated following the third-quarter shortfall. It is anticipated that consensus estimates will trend downwards during the fourth quarter as the effects of a reduced NIMAL credit card impact become more apparent.
The review of MercadoLibre's recent quarterly 10-Q filing suggests that the company's logistics and first-party economics are more favorable than previously anticipated. The contribution from credit card operations is perceived as managed with controlled losses. However, an increase in expenses has led to a reduction in the forecast for EBIT in 2025 by 9%.
