Segment Performance

The Global Business Solutions Group revenue grew 18%, or 20% excluding Mailchimp, driven by the company's mid-market growth, particularly with Intuit Enterprise Suite (IES). IES has seen significant growth, with 250 sales sets. The Online Ecosystem revenue grew 21%, with approximately 40% growth for QBO Advanced. Consumer platforms revenue grew 21%, driven by 27% TurboTax revenue growth, 6% Protex revenue growth, and 15% Credit Karma revenue growth.

AI-Driven Innovation

Intuit has made significant advancements in AI, including the introduction of Intuit Intelligence, a revolutionary system of intelligence where customers can ask questions and receive actionable answers. The company has also partnered with OpenAI to accelerate new customer growth and power prosperity for customers. As Sasan K. Goodarzi, Intuit's CEO, mentioned, the goal is to meet customers where they are, with no preference for direct or indirect usage, while maintaining accuracy, safety, and privacy.

Valuation and Outlook

Intuit's revenue growth is expected to continue, with analysts estimating a 12.8% growth next year. The company's current P/E Ratio is 43.19, and P/S Ratio is 9.15, indicating a premium valuation. However, the company's strong ROIC (15.6%) and ROE (21.36%) justify the premium. With a dividend yield of 0.68%, Intuit offers a relatively attractive yield. The company's guidance for Q2 FY2026 indicates continued momentum in GBSG online, mid-market, and Credit Karma offerings.

Intuit's margin leverage and efficiencies are driven by AI deployment and other efficiencies. The company has seen durable outperformance on margins for several quarters, driven by its platform and AI-driven experiences.
