Mixed Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

MercadoLibre released fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results on February 24, 2026, reporting net revenues and financial income of $8,759 million, up 45% year over year. Net income was $559 million, down 13% year over year, which the company attributed to a normalized tax rate compared with unusually low levels in Q4 2024. Income from operations included $99 million of one-off tax credits; excluding them, operating income declined 4% year over year, so shareholders face higher revenue alongside lower profit.
