RiverPark Advisors made the following comment about Intuit Inc. (NASDAQ:INTU) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:

“Intuit Inc. (NASDAQ:INTU): INTU was a top contributor in the third quarter following its fiscal 4Q23 earnings report where revenue, operating margins, and EPS all beat investor expectations. The company reported $2.7 billion of revenue and $1.65 of EPS, up 12% and 50%, respectively.

Given INTU’s less than 5% penetration of its $300 billion market, we believe the company can grow its top-line mid-teens, while improving on its high-margin business model of greater than 80% gross margins, and greater than 35% EBITDA margin, leading to high-teens EPS growth for the foreseeable future. At about 2% of revenue, the company also requires limited capital expenditures, producing significant and growing free cash flow, which INTU has used for acquisitions, a small dividend, debt repayment and stock buybacks.”
