Intuit to Acquire Digital Insight
Stage set for New Generation of Online Banking Solutions
MOUNTAIN VIEW and CALABASAS, Calif. — Nov. 30, 2006 — Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU) and Digital Insight Corp. (Nasdaq: DGIN) have signed a definitive agreement for Intuit to acquire Digital Insight. Under the terms of the agreement, Intuit will pay $39 per share in cash for each Digital Insight common share. The total purchase price is approximately $1.35 billion on a fully diluted basis.
     The acquisition will bring together Digital Insight, a leading provider of online banking services, and Intuit, the leading provider of financial management software, to millions of small businesses and consumers. Together, the companies will serve more than 5,000 financial institutions, nearly 25 million consumers and nearly 7 million small businesses. The acquisition will combine Intuit’s culture of customer-driven innovation and leading brands with Digital Insight’s best-in-class distribution and application service provider model.
     “The combination of two industry leaders will put Intuit in an excellent position to bring a new generation of online banking solutions to market in a way that will redefine the way small businesses and consumers manage their financial lives,” said Steve Bennett, Intuit president and chief executive officer.
     With the acquisition, Intuit will be able to combine work flows in its financial management tools with online banking capability offered by Digital Insight to create new, easier, and better-value offerings for consumers and small businesses.

     “Online banking is growing rapidly, but today’s solutions don’t meet the needs of most small businesses and many consumers,” said Jeff Stiefler, Digital Insight chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Digital Insight’s and Intuit’s combined assets and competencies will change the game for small businesses, consumers and the financial institutions that serve them. In addition to the clear business benefit of this proposed acquisition, both companies have already had the opportunity to work closely together to develop the mutual trust and respect that is a critical prerequisite for any business combination to be successful.”
     Following the closing of the acquisition, Digital Insight’s business operations will continue to operate from its existing facilities in California and Georgia. The Digital Insight business operations will establish the foundation for a newly formed financial institutions business division within Intuit, with Stiefler serving as that unit’s president.
     The transaction is subject to regulatory review, Digital Insight shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions. After closing, expected in the first calendar quarter of 2007, Digital Insight will become part of Intuit, and Digital Insight stock will cease trading. Intuit plans to finance the transaction with a combination of existing cash balances and up to $1 billion of debt financing, although there are no financing contingencies in the merger agreement. The transaction is expected to be dilutive to Intuit by two to three cents per share on a non GAAP basis in its current fiscal year and slightly accretive on a non GAAP basis in fiscal 2008.
     A live audio webcast conference call is available at http://web.intuit.com/about_intuit/investors/webcast_events.html. The call begins today at 5:30 a.m. Pacific. A replay of the audio webcast will remain on the Intuit and Digital Insight Web sites for one week after the conference call. Intuit has also posted this press release on its Web site and will post the conference call script shortly after that call ends.

A replay of the call will be available for two weeks by calling 888-266-2081 or 703-925-2533 for international callers. The replay access code is 1004956.
