Infuse Asset Management stated the following regarding Nu Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:NU) in its Q4 2024 investor letter:
"Nu Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:NU) is executing on its own audacious vision of becoming one of the largest companies in the world. It surpassed 100 million customers at the beginning of Q2 and is marching towards the next 100 million. As it doubles down on gaining market share in Mexico, it continues to build out its super app in Brazil. High income clients can now book flights, shop, get a payroll loan, buy ETFs, exchange currency, get a business loan based on their personal loan limit, get a cellphone plan, and much more. Nu’s mission is to fight complexity – nothing in that mission statement revolves around banking. I don’t want to fully get caught up in the vision, but the management team has the skills to back up the story. Meanwhile, the top-line is still growing in excess of 30% and margins are encroaching on 30%, while the forward multiple is less than 20x. If we could find 10 companies of this caliber, I would be thrilled."
