In this analysis, we're going to be looking at two things.

11
Welcome back, everybody.
12
Mercado Libre is Latin America's largest company by market value.
13
The e-commerce giant reported earnings that missed estimates.
14
Revenue growth of 34% did beat expectations,
15
but the earnings of $10.31 came in below the $11.93 the street was expecting.
16
Joining us right now to talk more about it is the company's CFO,
17
Martin De Los Santos.
18
And sir, thank you for being with us this morning.
19
Let's talk a little bit about the stock's reaction.
20
It's down 6% after the earnings were a little disappointing.
21
I know margins were cut into a bit.
22
What happened?
23
We see here that the revenue was good,
24
but the earnings wasn't what they were expecting.
25
Did you notice they never use the word bad when they're describing financial performance?
26
They use words like missed, the earnings missed estimates.
27
In this case, we're saying that the earnings were lower than what the analysts were expecting.
28
She also uses the word came in below.
29
For example, the earnings of 1031 came in below the 1193 we were expecting.
30
She also said are down.
31
The stocks are down 6%.
32
And lastly, disappointing.
33
The earnings were a little disappointing
34
so according to the interviewer a mix of results good being revenue growth
35
and perhaps bad the earnings were below what the analysts were
36
expecting okay let's see how the cfo handles this situation
37
so generally a good cfo will always try
38
and focus on the good results
39
and where there is some problematic areas they generally try
40
and turn it into something positive so let's see what he says here
41
good morning thank you for having me we are very excited about the results that we've seen in q2
42
you know as you mentioned revenue is growing 34 year on
43
year we continue to expand both our e-commerce platform as well
44
as our fintech ecosystem where we see a tremendous opportunity in
45
latin america a number of users continue to grow 25 in
46
commerce 30 growth in fintech our credit book doubling year on year gmb
47
which is a volume transacted in our platform growing
48
30 in mexico and brazil our largest markets so so very excited about the results so he says here
49
he's excited about the results let's look at the things he
50
focuses on revenue up 34% year on year okay year on
51
year means compared to previous period we have continued to expand
52
both our ecommerce platform as well as our fintech the number of users has grown
53
so for the ecommerce platform it was 25% and for The fintech,
54
the number of users has grown by 30%.
55
And lastly, he says that their credit book doubled.
56
Okay.
57
So we can see here the focus is on the good results.
58
Let's see what he says about why his earnings were below expectations.
59
And if he puts a little positive spin on his messaging.
60
This was a quarter of investment.
61
In order to capture this large opportunity that we have ahead of us,
62
We need to continue investing for the long term.
63
We opened two new fulfillment centers this quarter,
64
adding to the more than 30 fulfillment centers that we have in the region.
65
We have the largest and more sophisticated fulfillment infrastructure in Latin America.
66
We also invested in offering free shipping to our users in Brazil.
67
We lowered the threshold by which we offer free shipping to $4.
68
I mean, came from 79 reais to 19 reais,
69
which is roughly four dollars.
70
So that's a bold step in terms of our eliminating friction for people buying online.
71
And we also continue to invest in the credit card.
72
So I think probably in the short term that put a little pressure on margins,
73
but we are sure I'm improving over the past several years
74
that those investments in the long term pay off in order for us to make sure
75
that we do not miss the large opportunities that we have ahead of us.
76
so the first thing he said it was a quarter of investment to capture opportunities okay
77
so that's why their earnings were lower than expected their costs have increased
78
so those costs have come from two areas firstly opening up more fulfillment centers
79
and secondly because they lowered the threshold to qualify for free shipping okay
80
so the minimum order amount now is much lower than what it used to be
81
and they're doing that to capture more clients okay
82
so you notice how he spun the message from bad news
83
being cost increase into something positive capturing more market for the long term
84
i also like some of the phrases he used in this section he said it was a bold step
85
to eliminate friction for people buying online so in this case bold means courageous or brave
86
and friction is referring to resistance making something harder okay
87
so in other words it was a brave decision to make
88
online shopping easier for people the second phrase I liked was
89
when he said in the short term that will put pressure on our margins
90
but we're confident that in the long term those investments will pay off
91
so here the phrasal verb is payoff payoff can mean a few things
92
but in this sense it means to have good results
93
so in other words investing in the short term will provide
94
good results in the long term you notice here everything he
95
says is clear it's concise he doesn't over complicate the messaging
96
if you're a non-native English speaker
97
and you want to present results the same way as
98
that CFO did check out my step-by-step guide in my course
99
describing financial performance in English I'll leave the link for you in the description of this video
100
so what's one thing you should take away from today's class it's this
101
when you're presenting financial results don't focus on numbers in the table okay
102
if your audience wanted
103
that information they don't need you to present it to them
104
they have it already in a report instead your focus should
105
be on creating a clear digestible message of the events
106
that drove the result in your business okay the same way
107
we saw the CFO from Mercado Libre do okay the revenue was up why it's
108
because they invested more in free shipping which meant
109
that they were able to bring in more customers okay their costs are up why
110
because they invested more in free shipping offering
111
that to their clients they paid that and they opened up more fulfillment centers
112
which meant their cost increase but they were able to serve better than you market okay
113
so the next time you have to present financial results focus more on the messaging rather than reading numbers

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
