Published on 08/28/2026 at 10:39 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Intuit Inc. (US4612021039) fell after fiscal 2027 guidance came in below estimates, even as fiscal 2026 revenue reached $21.45 billion and fourth-quarter adjusted EPS hit $4.03 on August 25, 2026.
The company also posted fiscal Q4 2026 revenue of $4.35 billion, up 13.7% from a year earlier, while adjusted EPS rose from $2.75 in the prior-year quarter. Shares opened at $345.88 and the market value stood at $94.61 billion as the new guidance reset took hold.
Guidance reset
Investors were weighing fiscal 2027 revenue of $23.28 billion to $23.51 billion against expectations closer to $24.7 billion, a gap that helped drive the reaction. The same update pointed to diluted EPS of $20.12 to $20.36 for fiscal 2027, below the $20.60 estimate cited by the market.
For the full year, revenue climbed 14% to $21.45 billion and both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted EPS rose 20%. Net margin was 21.29% in the quarter, showing that profitability stayed strong even as the outlook reset.
Analysts stay active
Analyst commentary stayed busy after the print, with consensus targets clustered in the high $300s and several firms adjusting their calls. A dated market view put the average price target at $383.50, while one firm kept a $400 target on the shares.
The comparison matters because Intuit's quarter still beat expectations by $0.45 a share and $80 million in revenue, but the forward guide now sets the tone for the next leg of trading.
Product engine
QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma and Mailchimp remain the core franchises behind the numbers, and the latest quarter showed how that mix still supports high margins. The message from the report was simple: the business is still growing, but the pace now matters more than the base.
