Intuit Annual Revenue Grows 11 Percent;
GAAP Operating Income Grows 26 Percent

Annual Non-GAAP Operating Income Exceeds $1 Billion for First Time;
Strong Fourth-Quarter Results Led by Double-digit Growth in Small Business

     MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Aug. 19, 2010 – Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2010, which ended July 31. The company also provided initial guidance for fiscal year 2011.

Fiscal Year 2010 Highlights:

	•		Revenue increased 11 percent. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) diluted earnings per share grew 31 percent, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share grew 16 percent.
	•		GAAP operating income was $863 million, an increase of 26 percent, and non-GAAP operating income was $1.1 billion, an increase of 18 percent. Fiscal year non-GAAP operating income totaled more than $1 billion for the first time in Intuit’s history.
	•		Customer growth remained strong led by Consumer Tax and Financial Services.
	•		Nearly 60 percent of fiscal year revenue came from connected services, up from 56 percent last year.

     Intuit provided guidance for fiscal year 2011, which ends July 31, and expects revenue of $3.74 billion to $3.84 billion or growth of 8 to 11 percent.

Dollars in millions, except EPS.

     Growth in GAAP earnings is higher than non-GAAP because amortization of acquired intangible assets and non-cash stock compensation expense, which are classified as GAAP only, are growing slower than revenue. GAAP net income and EPS also benefited from the $35 million net gain on the sale of the Real Estate Solutions business in January 2010.

Fourth-Quarter 2010 Highlights:

	•		Revenue of $537 million, up 18 percent year over year, was above the high end of the guidance range for the quarter.
	•		Small Business delivered strong revenue growth of 16 percent for the quarter.
	•		Customer growth in Small Business continued, led by QuickBooks and Intuit Websites.
	•		Mint finished the quarter strong, growing its user base to more than 3 million users.

Company Perspective

     “We completed another strong quarter, capping off a great fiscal year,” said Brad Smith, Intuit’s president and chief executive officer. “For the year, we delivered double-digit revenue growth in what continues to be a challenging economic environment. Our results continue to demonstrate that our strategy is working, and our execution is on track. We are pleased with our financial performance, and have built positive momentum as we head into fiscal year 2011.

     “Intuit is a leader in categories that are growing. We’re increasing our share in small business and consumer tax. We are accelerating customer growth and improving revenue per customer. Our next phase of growth is being driven by the clear market shift to digital or connected services. Intuit is perfectly positioned for this shift, and making strong progress in building the next phase of our growth on our leading software-as-a-service offerings.”

Cautions About Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including forecasts of Intuit’s future expected financial results; its prospects for the business in fiscal 2011; its expectations for stock repurchases; and all of the statements under the heading “Forward-looking Guidance.”

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the following: product introductions and price competition from our competitors can have unpredictable negative effects on our revenue, profitability and market position; governmental encroachment in our tax businesses or other governmental activities or public policy affecting the preparation and filing of tax returns could negatively affect our operating results and market position; with continuing uncertainty with the economic and market conditions in the U.S. and

Intuit Fourth Quarter 2010 Earnings

worldwide, our customers may delay or reduce technology purchases which may harm our business, results of operations and financial condition; we may not be able to successfully introduce new products and services to meet our growth and profitability objectives, and current and future products and services may not adequately address customer needs and may not achieve broad market acceptance, which could harm our operating results and financial condition; any failure to maintain reliable and responsive service levels for our offerings could cause us to lose customers and negatively impact our revenues and profitability; any significant product quality problems or delays in our products could harm our revenue, earnings and reputation; our participation in the Free File Alliance may result in lost revenue opportunities and cannibalization of our traditional paid franchise; any failure to properly use and protect personal customer information could harm our revenue, earnings and reputation; our acquisition activities may be disruptive to Intuit and may not result in expected benefits; our use of significant amounts of debt to finance acquisitions or other activities could harm our financial condition and results of operations; our revenue and earnings are highly seasonal and the timing of our revenue between quarters is difficult to predict, which may cause significant quarterly fluctuations in our financial results; predicting tax-related revenues is challenging due to the heavy concentration of activity in a short time period; as we upgrade and consolidate our technology, systems and platforms, any problems with these implementations could interfere with our ability to deliver products and services; our financial position may not make repurchasing shares advisable or we may issue additional shares in an acquisition causing our number of outstanding shares to grow; and litigation involving intellectual property, antitrust, shareholder and other matters may increase our costs. More details about these and other risks that may impact our business are included in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2009 and in our other SEC filings. You can locate these reports through our website at http://investors.intuit.com.

The following table summarizes the total share-based compensation expense from continuing operations that we recorded for the periods shown.

[B]		Our effective tax benefit rates for the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately 39% and 41%. The income tax benefit for those periods included the impact of finalizing the annual effective tax rate in connection with the preparation of the annual tax provision for those periods. Excluding this impact, our effective tax benefit rates for the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 did not differ significantly from the federal statutory rate of 35%.
		Our effective tax rate for the twelve months ended July 31, 2010 was approximately 34%. In that year we recorded discrete tax benefits that were primarily related to foreign tax credits associated with the distribution of profits from our non-U.S. subsidiaries and our plans to indefinitely reinvest substantially all remaining non-U.S. earnings in support of our international expansion plans. Excluding those discrete tax benefits, our effective tax rate for that period was approximately 36% and did not differ significantly from the federal statutory rate of 35%.
		Our effective tax rate for the twelve months ended July 31, 2009 was approximately 31%. Excluding discrete tax benefits primarily related to a favorable agreement we entered into with a tax authority and the retroactive reinstatement of the federal research and experimentation credit, our effective tax rate for that period was approximately 35% and did not differ significantly from the federal statutory rate of 35%.

[C]

On January 15, 2010 we sold our Intuit Real Estate Solutions (IRES) business for approximately $128 million in cash and recorded a net gain on disposal of $35 million. IRES was part of our Other Businesses segment. We determined that IRES became a discontinued operation in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. We have therefore segregated the net assets and operating results of IRES from continuing operations on our balance sheets and in our statements of operations for all periods prior to the sale. Assets held for sale at July 31, 2009 consisted primarily of goodwill. Revenue from IRES was $33 million for the twelve months ended July 31, 2010 and $74 million for the twelve months ended July 31, 2009. Because IRES operating cash flows were not material for any period presented, we have not segregated them from continuing operations on our statements of cash flows. We have presented the effect of the net gain on disposal of IRES in net income from discontinued operations on our statements of cash flows for the twelve months ended July 31, 2010.

INTUIT INC.
ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The accompanying press release dated August 19, 2010 contains non-GAAP financial measures. Table B and Table E 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
	•		Charges for historical use of technology licensing rights
	•		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 marketable equity securities and other investments
	•		Income tax effects of excluded items
	•		Discontinued operations

We believe that 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 that 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 purchases of common stock under 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 an entity, we are required by GAAP to record the fair values of the intangible assets of the entity 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 entities. Amortization of other acquired intangible assets in operating expenses includes amortization of assets such as customer lists, covenants not to compete and trade names.

Charges for historical use of technology licensing rights. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures the portion of technology licensing fees that relates to historical use of that technology.

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 marketable equity securities and other investments. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures gains and losses that we record when we sell or impair marketable equity securities and other investments.

Income tax effects of excluded items. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures the income tax effects of the adjustments described above that relate to the current period as well as adjustments for similar items that relate to prior periods. This is consistent with how we plan, forecast and evaluate our operating results.

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.

The reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in Table E include all information reasonably available to Intuit at the date of this press release. These tables include adjustments that we can reasonably predict. Events that could cause the reconciliation to change include acquisitions and divestitures of businesses, goodwill and other asset impairments, and sales of marketable equity securities and other investments.
