Intuit Third Quarter Revenue Declined 8 Percent;

Small Business Online Ecosystem Revenue Grew 28 Percent

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. - May 21, 2020 - Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), maker of TurboTax, QuickBooks and Mint, announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2020, which ended April 30.

“During the first half of the fiscal year we grew total company revenue 14 percent, and we saw this momentum continue into the beginning of the third quarter. However, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the IRS extending the tax filing deadline to July 15. This caused the timing of millions of tax filings to shift later in the season, resulting in total revenue declining 8 percent in the quarter," said Sasan Goodarzi, Intuit’s chief executive officer. “Additionally, the shelter-in-place directives negatively impacted small businesses who are facing loss of income and cash flow to pay employees and weather the storm."

Financial Highlights

For the third quarter, Intuit reported:


•	Total revenue of $3.0 billion, down 8 percent.


•	Small Business and Self-Employed Group revenue up 11 percent to $1.0 billion.


•	Small Business Online Ecosystem revenue grew 28 percent.


•	Consumer Group revenue declined 15 percent to $1.8 billion.

Unless otherwise noted, all growth rates refer to the current period versus the comparable prior-year period, and the business metrics and associated growth rates refer to worldwide business metrics.

Business Segment Results

Consumer and Strategic Partner Groups


•	Reported $1.8 billion of Consumer Group revenue for the third quarter, down 15 percent, reflecting a shift of a significant portion of tax filings and related revenue out of the third quarter and into the fourth quarter.


•	Drove DIY category growth of 2.2 percent, outpacing assisted category decline of 18.8 percent while total e-files were down 9.6 percent, based on IRS data through May 8. Because this data includes stimulus filings for individuals not usually required to file a tax return, it is not comparable to prior year data.


•	The company expects more of its customers with complex returns to file later in the extended season. TurboTax Online share and average revenue per customer remain on track for the season.


•	Reported $193 million of professional tax revenue in the Strategic Partner Group for the third quarter, down 18 percent, reflecting the impact of the extended deadline on the timing of consumer tax filings completed by accountants.

Small Business and Self-Employed Group


•	For the third fiscal quarter:


◦	Grew QuickBooks online accounting revenue 36 percent in the quarter, driven primarily by customer growth, higher effective prices and, to a lesser extent, mix-shift.


◦	Increased Online Services revenue 16 percent, driven by QuickBooks Online payroll and QuickBooks Online payments.


•	During the second half of the quarter:


◦	The majority of Intuit's customers, which are service-based businesses, were negatively impacted by shelter-in-place.


◦	QuickBooks Online new customer acquisition decelerated by approximately 15 points versus the first half of the quarter and retention within the existing base decreased by 2 points. Despite these headwinds, the customer base and average revenue per customer are expected to grow in fiscal year 2020.


◦	After growing approximately 30 percent through mid-March, online payments charge volume growth decelerated and was flat.


◦	Within online payroll, after an increase of 20 percent year-over-year in workers paid through mid-March, workers paid decreased 10 percent year-over-year. After the total number of companies running payroll grew approximately 15 percent year-over-year through mid-March, the number of companies running payroll was approximately flat.


•	QuickBooks Capital has funded $680 million in loans since being launched over 2 years ago. At the end of the third quarter, the net loans receivable balance was $89 million. Loans from the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) through QuickBooks Capital as of April 30 were insignificant.


•	Since April 30, 2020, Intuit helped make available just over $875 million of approved small business loans to customers from the PPP through QuickBooks Capital as of May 20.

Capital Allocation Summary

In the third quarter the company:


•	Had a total cash and investments balance of approximately $4 billion as of April 30. Intuit drew down the full amount of its $1 billion revolving credit facility on May 7 to maintain financial flexibility.


•	Repurchased $40 million of shares, with $2.4 billion remaining on the company's authorization.


•	Received Board approval for a quarterly dividend of $0.53 per share, payable July 20, 2020. This represents a 13 percent increase compared to the same period last year.

NOTES TO TABLE A


[A]	The following table summarizes the total share-based compensation expense that we recorded in operating income for the periods shown.



	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(in millions)	April 30, 2020		April 30, 2019		April 30, 2020		April 30, 2019

[B]	We compute our provision for or benefit from income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to income or loss from recurring operations and adding the effects of any discrete income tax items specific to the period.

For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2020, we recognized excess tax benefits on share-based compensation of $7 million and $59 million, respectively, in our provision for income taxes. For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2019, we recognized excess tax benefits on share-based compensation of $20 million and $69 million, respectively, in our provision for income taxes.

Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2020 were approximately 23% and 19%, respectively. Excluding discrete tax items primarily related to share-based compensation tax benefits mentioned above, our effective tax rate for the period was 24%. The difference from the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible share-based compensation, which were partially offset by the tax benefit we received from the federal research and experimentation credit.

Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2019 were approximately 23% and 21%. Excluding discrete tax items primarily related to share-based compensation tax benefits mentioned above, our effective tax rate for both periods was 23%. The difference from the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible share-based compensation, which were partially offset by the tax benefit we received from the federal research and experimentation credit.

[A] As discussed in “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Income Tax Effects and Adjustments” following Table D, our long-term non-GAAP tax rate eliminates the effects of non-recurring and period-specific items. Other income tax adjustments consist primarily of the tax impact of the non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments and the excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

See “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” immediately following Table D for information on these measures, the items excluded from the most directly comparable GAAP measures in arriving at non-GAAP financial measures, and the reasons management uses each measure and excludes the specified amounts in arriving at each non-GAAP financial measure.

INTUIT INC.

ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The accompanying press release dated May 21, 2020 contains non-GAAP financial measures. Table B1 and Table B2 reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures in that press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same names, and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names that are used by other companies.

We compute non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year. We may consider whether other significant items that arise in the future should be excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures.

We exclude the following items from all of our non-GAAP financial measures:


•	Share-based compensation expense


•	Amortization of acquired technology


•	Amortization of other acquired intangible assets


•	Goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges


•	Gains and losses on disposals of businesses and long-lived assets


•	Professional fees for business combinations

We also exclude the following items from non-GAAP net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share:


•	Gains and losses on debt and equity securities and other investments


•	Income tax effects and adjustments


•	Discontinued operations

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Intuit’s operating results primarily because they exclude amounts that we do not consider part of ongoing operating results when planning and forecasting and when assessing the performance of the organization, our individual operating segments, or our senior management. Segment managers are not held accountable for share-based compensation expense, amortization, or the other excluded items and, accordingly, we exclude these amounts from our measures of segment performance. We believe our non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate the comparison by management and investors of results for current periods and guidance for future periods with results for past periods.

The following are descriptions of the items we exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures.

Share-based compensation expenses. These consist of non-cash expenses for stock options, restricted stock units, and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. When considering the impact of equity awards, we place greater emphasis on overall shareholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with those awards.

Amortization of acquired technology and amortization of other acquired intangible assets. When we acquire a business in a business combination, we are required by GAAP to record the fair values of the intangible assets of the business and amortize them over their useful lives. Amortization of acquired technology in cost of revenue includes amortization of software and other technology assets of acquired businesses. Amortization of other acquired intangible assets in operating expenses includes amortization of assets such as customer lists, covenants not to compete, and trade names.

Goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures non-cash charges to adjust the carrying values of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets to their estimated fair values.

Gains and losses on disposals of businesses and long-lived assets. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures gains and losses on disposals of businesses and long-lived assets because they are unrelated to our ongoing business operating results.

Professional fees for business combinations. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures the professional fees we incur to complete business combinations. These include investment banking, legal, and accounting fees.

Gains and losses on debt and equity securities and other investments. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures gains and losses that we record when we impair available-for-sale debt and equity securities and other investments.

Income tax effects and adjustments. We use a long-term non-GAAP tax rate for evaluating operating results and for planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. This long-term non-GAAP tax rate excludes the income tax effects of the non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments described above, and eliminates the effects of non-recurring and period specific items which can vary in size and frequency. Based on our current long-term projections, we are using a long-term non-GAAP tax rate of 23% for fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2020. This long-term non-GAAP tax rate could be subject to change for various reasons including significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or fundamental tax law changes in major jurisdictions in which we operate. We will evaluate this long-term non-GAAP tax rate on an annual basis and whenever any significant events occur which may materially affect this rate.

Operating results and gains and losses on the sale of discontinued operations. From time to time, we sell or otherwise dispose of selected operations as we adjust our portfolio of businesses to meet our strategic goals. In accordance with GAAP, we segregate the operating results of discontinued operations as well as gains and losses on the sale of these discontinued operations from continuing operations on our GAAP statements of operations but continue to include them in GAAP net income or loss and net income or loss per share. We exclude these amounts from our non-GAAP financial measures.
