with your additional context it could mean
shortfall for una diferencia **en menos de**

Note from asker:
| Hola Billh. Lo pensé pero no encontré hits buscando "of less than USD". |
| ésa era la palabra que no recordaba: shortfall! Ya está. Thanks! |
| Billh, en mi contexto me pareció más apropiada "shortfall". Si me permitís, pongo esa tradux en el glosario. Depende de vos. Saludos |

the difference is not in excess or more dollars. The difference is "minus or negative".
