Summary

Summary of the 8-K filed May 23, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

Intuit (INTU) reported fiscal Q3 2024 results (quarter ended April 30, 2024) that beat expectations on the top and bottom lines and led management to raise full-year FY2024 guidance across revenue, operating income, and EPS.

Total revenue rose 12% to $6.737 billiona, GAAP operating income rose 12% to $3.105 billion, and GAAP diluted EPS rose 14% to $8.42 (non-GAAP EPS of $9.88, up 11%). Growth was led by the Small Business and Self-Employed Group, whose revenue rose 18% to $2.4 billion, with QuickBooks Online Accounting up 19% and Online Services up 20%. Consumer Group revenue grew 9% to $3.7 billion, while Credit Karma grew 8% to $443 million.

Full-year FY2024 guidance was lifted: revenue of $16.164b-16.200 billion (about 13% growth, up from 11-12%), GAAP EPS of $10.78-10.83 (about 28-29% growth), and non-GAAP EPS of $16.79-16.84 (about 17% growth). Fourth-quarter guidance calls for revenue of $3.063-3.099 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $1.80-1.85. The Consumer Group outlook is more mixed: TurboTax total units are expected to decline 1% amid share loss to pay-nothing customers, and TurboTax's share of IRS returns is expected to fall about 80 basis points.

The Board also approved a quarterly dividend of $0.90c per share, up 15% year over year, payable July 18, 2024. Capital allocation remained active: Intuit repurchased $584 million of shares in the quarter and had $2.1 billion left on its authorization, while ending the quarter with about $4.7 billion in cash and investments against $6.0 billion of debt. Investors should weigh the strong SMB and online ecosystem momentum and raised guidance against the expected consumer tax-season unit declines, the reliance on AI-driven execution, and the company's substantial stock-based compensation, which was $451 million in the quarter.
