For marketers, Intuit Assist comes with capabilities that can streamline marketing efforts by managing end-to-end campaigns aligned with brand identity and intent. It will also assist in creating customizable emails in Mailchimp, help incorporate QuickBooks data and offer scheduling flexibility for marketing content.
Intuit Benefits From a Strong Portfolio
Intuit shares have rallied 41.6% year to date, outperforming the Zacks Computer and Technology sector’s return of 41.3%.

Moreover, the company’s strategy of shifting its business to a cloud-based subscription model will help generate stable revenues. Intuit expects double-digit revenue growth and margin expansion in fiscal 2024.
For the fiscal first quarter of 2024, INTU expects revenues to grow between 10% and 11% on a year-over-year basis in the band of $2.86-$2.895 billion. Non-GAAP earnings for the quarter are estimated in the range of $1.94-$2 per share.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal first-quarter 2024 revenues is pegged at $2.87 billion, indicating 10.6% year over year. The consensus estimate for earnings is pegged at $1.95 per share, unchanged over the past 30 days.
