Why it matters

  1. What Intuit Inc does

    Intuit makes money by selling financial and tax software like TurboTax and QuickBooks to consumers and small businesses. It charges subscription and transaction fees for automated accounting and filing.

  2. What it does best

    Intuit dominates consumer tax filing through TurboTax, anchoring a gross margin of 80% that sits in the top quartile of its sector. This high margin is protected by deep brand trust and complex tax compliance integration that casual rivals struggle to match.

  3. The main risk

    Fierce competition and AI encroachment threaten core software pricing power as tech giants target automated financial workflows. If these threats gain traction, user acquisition costs could rise and squeeze its 28% operating margin.

Quality, check by check

Scored against its own industry, from company filings.

ProfitabilityStrong

Operating margins sit at 28.8% with an FCF margin of 40%. Profitability is expanding steadily as software revenue scales with minimal added cost.

MoatStrong

A top-decile free cash flow margin of 92nd percentile reflects immense ecosystem lock-in for consumers and businesses. Switching costs are high because historical financial data sits deeply embedded.

GrowthFast

Revenue grew to $21.4B, accelerating past historical rates from prior years. QuickBooks and TurboTax adoption drives this top-line expansion.

Financial healthStrong

Debt-to-equity of 0.4 sits alongside $7.2 billion in cash, leaving liabilities manageable. Free cash flow surged to $8.6B, showing strong cash conversion.
