 Inc. (Nasdaq:INTU INTU Intuit, Inc. (stock abbreviation, AMEX) ) today announced the financial results for its second quarter of fiscal 2002 ended Jan. 31, 2002.

"Intuit delivered an outstanding quarter," said Steve Bennett The name Steve Bennett refers to more than one person:

  • Steve Bennett, manga artist and head of ill-fated manga publisher Studio Ironcat.

This was up 351 percent from net income of $26.6 million, or $0.12 per share, in the year-ago quarter, reflecting a 29 percent increase in operating income. This year's quarter also reflected a $19 million increase in acquisition-related charges compared to last year's quarter. Included in this quarter's acquisition-related charges was an impairment Impairment

On the same pro forma basis Intuit has consistently followed for a number of years (explained below), the company reported second-quarter net income of $134.8 million, or $0.61 per share, $0.04 per share better than consensus estimates. Intuit reported pro forma net income of $104.2 million, or $0.48 per share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2001. (See Table B1.)

Solid Start to Tax Season

Intuit is off to a solid start in its tax season. Revenue from Intuit's professional tax business increased 28 percent over last year's second quarter. About half of the quarter's growth in pro tax resulted from the company's acquisition of TAASC TAASC Training Aids Support Center  in April 2001.

"As expected, consumer tax revenue is only slightly above last year's level," said Bennett. "This is because we continue to see an increasing portion of our tax growth coming in our third quarter. More customers are using our Web-based tax solutions, which historically have revenue peaks later in the season." Positive early indicators include:
-- TurboTax for the Web revenue was up 158 percent in the second quarter over
the prior-year quarter. TurboTax for the Web revenue is expected to represent
about 10-15 percent of total consumer tax revenue for the full fiscal year
2002.

-- Electronic filing units for federal tax returns were up more than 35 percent
over last year through Feb. 8.


Although Intuit is encouraged by these early indicators, it is too early to predict results for the full tax season.

Executing "Right for my Business" Strategy

Intuit is executing on its strategy to provide small business owners with "Right for My Business" solutions. As the company expected, small business revenue was slightly above year-ago levels, with total QuickBooks A small business accounting system for Windows and the Macintosh from Intuit, Inc., Mountain View, CA (www.intuit.com).

-- Lower channel inventory -- In a tougher economic environment,

quarter, resulting in approximately ap·prox·i·mate

However, the company has seen several early positive indicators related to its new QuickBooks 2002 products:

-- End-user (job) end-user - The person who uses a computer application, as opposed to those who developed or support it. The end-user may or may not know anything about computers, how they work, or what to do if something goes wrong.  purchases of QuickBooks 2002 products were up more

than 20 percent in units and more than 45 percent in dollars

when compared to QuickBooks 2001 products for the equivalent

launch-to-date period ended Jan. 31.

-- End-user purchases of the higher-end QuickBooks Premier and

QuickBooks Accountants editions represented nearly 7 percent

of the unit mix and nearly 15 percent of the dollar mix for

QuickBooks 2002.

Service Businesses Continue to Grow in the Second Quarter

-- Quicken Loans revenue of $57 million was up 181 percent.

Intuit expects year-over-year revenue growth for Quicken Loans

to be lower in the third and fourth quarters, though it

continues to expect 45 percent to 55 percent revenue growth

for the full fiscal year.

Pro Forma Operating Income Guidance Increasing for Fiscal 2002

Intuit is raising its guidance for pro forma operating income for fiscal 2002, which ends July July: see month.  31, 2002, by $20 million to the $300 million to $310 million range. The strong second-quarter revenue performance also raises the low end of Intuit's revenue growth guidance from 15 percent to 17 percent, resulting in a range of 17 percent to 20 percent growth for the fiscal year, or $1.476 billion to $1.510 billion. The company's policy is to not confirm, update or otherwise comment on its financial projections except in compliance with Regulation FD.

Information About Intuit's Seasonality and Financial Reporting

Intuit's financial results reflect the highly seasonal nature of its businesses, particularly its tax preparation and small business products and services. Intuit typically produces more than 100 percent of its annual profits in its second and third quarters combined. Intuit typically reports a loss in its first and fourth quarters when revenue from seasonal businesses is relatively lower, but operating expenses Operating expenses

The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted.
 to develop new products and services continue at relatively consistent levels.

Because of this seasonality, annual results may provide a more meaningful way to compare Intuit's operating performance than quarter-over-quarter comparisons. In addition, the timing of product launches and customer buying patterns can vary from one year to the next, shifting revenue to different quarters within a year.

(i) The difference in the effective tax rate for each of these periods
    was primarily due to the tax benefit related to divestitures that
    became available in the second quarter of fiscal 2002. The company
    also reported pre-tax income for the six months ended January 31,
    2002 as opposed to a pre-tax loss for the six months ended January
    31, 2001, which also contributed to the difference in the
    effective tax rate for these periods.

(iii) Table B2 lists the differences between the GAAP statement of
      operations in Table A and the pro forma statement of operations
      in Table B1. Pro forma results exclude certain costs and
      expenses, as well as certain non-operating gains and losses, in
      order to give investors an alternative method of assessing the
      results of the company's core operating businesses. Pro forma
      operating income excludes certain cost and expense line items
      that are in the GAAP statement of operations. Therefore, for
      example, the amount of the GAAP line item "acquisition-related
      charges," which is an expense, was added back to GAAP operating
      income in calculating pro forma operating income. Eliminating
      cost or expense items increases pro forma results compared to
      GAAP results. Pro forma net income excludes the cost and expense
      line items that are excluded from pro forma operating income,
      plus certain non-operating gains and losses in the GAAP
      statement of operations. Again, for example, the non-operating
      loss on marketable securities and other investments in the three
      months ended January 31, 2001 was added back in, and the
      non-operating gain on marketable securities and other
      investments in the three months ended January 31, 2002 was
      subtracted, in calculating pro forma net income. Eliminating
      loss line items increases pro forma net income compared to GAAP
      net income. Eliminating gain line items decreases pro forma net
      income compared to GAAP net income.

(iv) Acquisition-related charges include amortization of goodwill and
     intangibles as well as impairment charges. For the three and six
     months ended January 31, 2002, goodwill and intangibles
     amortization were $40.1 million and $81.2 million. The company
     also recorded impairment charges of $17.4 million for its
     Internet-based advertising revenue business and $4.6 million for
     its acquisition of Boston Light for the three and six months
     ended January 31, 2002. For the three and six months ended
     January 31, 2001, amortization was $43.1 million and $82.8
     million. Amortization relating to the Lacerte Software
     Corporation and Computing Resources, Inc. acquisitions
     constituted approximately 40% and 20% of amortization costs for
     all periods presented.

(v)  Loss on impairment of long-lived asset reflects the write off of
     an asset the company received when it sold the Quicken Bill
     Manager business.

(vi) Gains and losses on marketable securities and other investments
     include realized and unrealized gains and losses, as well as
     losses recognized for other-than-temporary declines in the value
     of these assets. For the six months ended January 31, 2002, the
     company recorded losses of $3.3 million for other-than-temporary
     declines in the value of other investments. For the three and six
     months ended January 31, 2001 the company recorded losses for
     other-than-temporary declines of $15.0 million for other
     investments and $40.0 million for its S-1 securities.
