Intuit Beats Fiscal Q4 Targets But Misses With Outlook

Intuit shares fell more than 11% in pre-market trading on August 26 after the company released fiscal 2027 guidance that missed analyst estimates. While the company exceeded market expectations for its fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 results, the annual forecast suggests slower revenue growth. Intuit is currently prioritizing customer growth for TurboTax and fighting competition from AI. Investors are weighing these growth concerns against the company's AI monetization strategy and recent performance issues with Mailchimp.
