Intuit is a high-quality compounding software business worth owning while sentiment is weak, thanks to ecosystem advantages across TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks and Mailchimp and AI layered into products with deep customer relationships. It reported strong Q2 FY2026 results and reiterated full-year revenue guidance of $20.997B-$21.186B, about 12-13% growth, with 14-15% non-GAAP EPS growth. x.com 

Intuit's growing business platform makes pricing the whole firm like slowing TurboTax too pessimistic. It is 54% of revenue, grew 18% in FY26 and is guided to 13-14% in FY27; 15% growth in revenue per customer shows switching costs, though new-customer targets are missed. At ~14x FY27 earnings including stock comp (16x GAAP), shares imply low-single-digit long-term cash flow growth. If the platform grows ~10% and consumer stays flat, EPS should grow ~8-10% a year, beating the index even at 12x. … Show more

Intuit risks becoming the example of AI commoditizing software, as AI and agents increasingly answer tax and bookkeeping questions instantly, cheaply or for free, removing the need for a costly middle layer. Its large paying base means AI probably won't crush it immediately, but pricing power and users could get squeezed. Its lofty multiples are likely over; it won't go to zero and could still be decent, but it is down 54% this year in a nasty stage-4 downtrend below its 200-day average. x.com  … Show more

Intuit's dominant market positions, recurring revenue, high switching costs and exceptional cash generation make it a world-class compounder, and the market's AI fears may be offering it at a discount. x.com 

Intuit trades at only 11x forward earnings, a valuation back down to earth and then some versus the roughly 2% free cash flow yield it averaged from 2013 until the SaaS crash. Its tax and SMB accounting markets are known and not shrinking, growing at least with GDP and population; the only question is how much Intuit captures. Free filers were never the valuable customers. Non-GAAP earnings exclude stock compensation, but Intuit's adjustments are typical of peers and less sketchy. x.com  x.com  … Show more

Intuit will survive AI, but its products are among the most vulnerable to it, and AI should take a massive chunk of its business. It relied heavily on customers staying for convenience, and it has already admitted customer spending is tightening. Revenue growth has slowed to 10%, and the 17% staff layoff looks like an effort to offset lost future business. It may not be a terrible buy here, but it won't return near historic valuations, and better SaaS options exist. x.com 

Intuit could be an interesting value play with its price-to-free-cash-flow approaching 10, even as AI intensifies competition. x.com 

Intuit looks unusually cheap at 15x forward earnings for a high-quality software compounder. It offers about 15% expected EPS growth, 0.46x net debt to EBITDA and 22% net margins, a combination that rarely trades this low. The open question is whether the market is right to fear AI disruption. x.com 

Intuit is likely to be slightly disrupted by Claude and other AI tools that prepare and file taxes, and is not a great contrarian buy-the-dip opportunity. Cheaper or even free open-source QuickBooks rivals that startups can spin up by vibe coding with Claude add possible disruption from multiple fronts. An accountant replying argues QuickBooks with AI features has pricing power. Disruption is real but has a few winners, such as Reddit and Snap, likely more profitable from AI opex cuts. x.com  … Show more

Intuit's AI risk is overstated, and at roughly 17x FY27 GAAP EPS the stock doesn't match its results. FY26 revenue rose 14% and GAAP EPS 20%; TurboTax units fell 2%, yet revenue grew 7% as AI-plus-expert TurboTax Live grew 37% to 53% of it. QuickBooks' moat is the accountant channel trained on it, plus payroll and payments compliance. The FY27 guide has EPS up 22–24% without unit growth. Risks: banks bundling AI bookkeepers, or tax-code simplification. x.com  x.com
