Summary
Intuit Inc. filed an 8-K report on August 19, 2003, to announce its financial results for the fiscal quarter and year ended July 31, 2003. The primary purpose of the filing is to furnish a press release (Exhibit 99.01) containing these results. Investors should note that the press release utilizes "pro forma" financial measures which exclude certain items like acquisition-related charges, amortization of goodwill and intangibles, and discontinued operations. While Intuit's management believes these pro forma measures offer a meaningful view of core operating results and aid in performance assessment and forecasting, it's crucial for investors to understand they are non-GAAP measures and may differ from those used by other companies. The filing explicitly directs investors to the press release for reconciliations between these pro forma figures and their most directly comparable GAAP measures, which are essential for a complete financial picture.
