INTUIT INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Intuit and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain other previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. As discussed in Note 6 , the Quicken Loans mortgage business, which we sold on July 31, 2002, has been accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 30. Accordingly, we have reclassified our financial statements for all periods presented to reflect Quicken Loans as a discontinued operation. Unless noted otherwise, discussions in these notes pertain to our continuing operations.

We have included all normal recurring adjustments and the non-recurring adjustments described in Note 6 that we consider necessary to give a fair presentation of our operating results for the periods shown. Results for the three months ended October 31, 2002 do not necessarily indicate the results we expect for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2003 or any other future period. These statements and accompanying notes should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002 included in Intuit’s Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 25, 2002.

Use of Estimates

We make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures made in the accompanying notes. For example, we use estimates for reserves for product returns and rebates, and to determine the collectibility of accounts receivable and the value of deferred tax assets. We also use estimates to determine the remaining economic lives and carrying values of purchased intangibles, property and equipment and other long-lived assets. Despite our intention to establish accurate estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from our estimates.

Net Revenue

We derive revenues from the sale of packaged software products and supplies, product support, professional services, outsourced payroll services and multiple element arrangements that may include any combination of these items. We recognize revenue for software products and related services in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as modified by SOP 98-9. For other offerings, we follow Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, we have delivered the product or performed the service, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable.

In some situations, we receive advance payments from our customers. We defer revenue associated with these advance payments until we ship the products or perform the services.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB’s”) Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Product,” we generally account for cash consideration (such as sales incentives) that we give to our customers or resellers as a reduction of revenue rather than as an operating expense.

Table of Contents

Product Revenue

We recognize revenue for the sale of our packaged software products and supplies when we ship the product (which is when title passes) either to retailers and distributors or directly to end-user customers. We sell our QuickBooks and consumer tax products on consignment to a limited number of resellers. We recognize revenue for these consignment transactions when the end-user sale has occurred.

We reduce product revenue from distributors and retailers for estimated returns that are based on historical returns experience and other factors such as the volume and price mix of products in the retail channel, trends in retailer inventory and economic trends that might impact customer demand for our products. We reduce product revenue from end users for the estimated usage of rebates on current product sales. Rebate reserves are based on the terms and conditions of the specific promotional rebate program, actual sales during the promotion, the amount of redemptions received, historical redemption trends by product and by type of promotional program and the economic value of the rebate.

Service Revenue

We recognize revenue from outsourced payroll processing and payroll tax filing services as the services are performed, provided we have no other remaining obligations to these customers. We generally require customers to remit payroll and payroll tax liability funds to us in advance of the applicable payroll due date via electronic funds transfer. We include in total net revenue the interest earned on invested balances resulting from timing differences between the collection of these funds from customers and the remittance of the funds to outside parties because this interest income represents an integral part of the revenue generated from our services. We recognize this interest as it is earned.

We also offer several plans under which customers pay for technical support. We recognize support revenue over the life of the plan, which is generally one year. Costs incurred for these support plans are included in cost of revenue.

Service revenue also includes revenue from training, consulting and implementation services. We recognize revenue as these services are performed, provided we have no other remaining obligations to these customers.

Other Revenue

Other revenue consists primarily of royalties from advertising agreements. We typically recognize revenue pro rata based on the contractual time period. If collectibility is not considered probable, we recognize revenue when the royalty is collected.

Multiple Element Arrangements

We also enter into certain revenue arrangements for which we are obligated to deliver multiple products and/or services (multiple elements). For these arrangements, which generally include software products, we allocate and defer revenue for the undelivered elements based on their vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value. VSOE is generally the price charged when that element is sold separately.

In situations where VSOE exists for all elements (delivered and undelivered), we allocate the total revenue to be earned under the arrangement among the various elements, based on their relative fair value. For transactions where VSOE exists only for the undelivered elements, we allocate and defer revenue based on VSOE of fair value of the undelivered elements, and recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered items as revenue. If VSOE does not exist for undelivered items that are services, then we recognize the entire arrangement fee over the remaining service period. If VSOE does not exist for undelivered elements that are specified products or features, we defer revenue until the earlier of the delivery of all elements or the point at which VSOE is determined for these undelivered elements.

We recognize revenue related to the delivered products or services only if: (1) the above revenue recognition criteria are met; (2) any undelivered products or services are not essential to the functionality of the delivered products and services; (3) payment for the delivered products or services is not contingent upon delivery of the remaining products or services; (4) we have an enforceable claim to receive the amount due in event that we do not deliver the undelivered products or services; and (5) as discussed above, there is evidence of the fair value for each of the undelivered products or services.

Shipping and Handling

We record the amounts we charge our customers for the shipping and handling of our software products as product revenue and we record the related costs as cost of products in our statement of operations.

Customer Deposits and Payroll Service Obligations

Customer deposits represent cash held on behalf of our payroll customers. Payroll service obligations also relate to our payroll business and consist primarily of payroll taxes we owe on behalf of our customers.

Goodwill, Purchased Intangible Assets and Other Long-lived Assets

We record goodwill when the purchase price of net tangible and intangible assets we acquire exceeds their fair value. In previous fiscal years, including fiscal 2002, we generally amortized goodwill on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 5 years. However, in accordance with SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” we did not amortize goodwill for acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001, and effective August 1, 2002 we no longer amortize goodwill for acquisitions completed before July 1, 2001. See “Recent Pronouncements” below for more information. We amortize the cost of identified intangible assets on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 1 to 10 years.

We regularly perform reviews to determine if the carrying values of our long-lived assets are impaired. We look for facts or circumstances, either internal or external, that indicate that we may not recover the carrying value of the asset. We measure impairment loss related to long-lived assets based on the amount by which the carrying amounts of such assets exceed their fair values. Our measurement of fair value is generally based on an analysis of the present value of estimated future discounted cash flows. Our analysis is based on available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections. The discounted cash flow analysis considers the likelihood of possible outcomes and is based on our best estimate of projected future cash flows. If necessary, we perform subsequent calculations to measure the amount of the impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the impaired assets.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” We implemented both SFAS 142 and SFAS 144 on August 1, 2002. See “Recent Pronouncements” below for more information.

Stock-Based Incentive Program

We provide equity incentives to our employees (including those we hire as a result of acquisitions) and to our independent Board members through a carefully managed stock incentive program. We maintain four stock option plans and an Employee Stock Purchase Plan for different groups of eligible participants, and we also have outstanding stock options that we assumed in connection with certain acquisitions. We apply the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” in accounting for stock-based incentives. Accordingly, we are not required to record compensation expense when stock options are granted to eligible participants as long as the exercise price is not less than the fair market value of the stock when the option is granted. We are also not required to record compensation expense in connection with the Employee Stock Purchase Plan as long as the purchase price of the stock is not less than 85% of the lower of the fair market value at the beginning of each 12-month offering period or at the end of each applicable six-month purchase period. See Note 11 for an illustration of the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based incentives.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers and Suppliers

We operate in markets that are highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological changes, changes in customer requirements, the emergence of competitive products or services with new capabilities and other factors could negatively impact our operating results.

We are also subject to risks related to changes in the values of our significant balance of short-term investments as well as risks related to the collectibility of our trade accounts receivable. Our portfolio of short-term investments

-8-


Table of Contents

consists primarily of investment-grade securities that we diversify by limiting our holdings with any individual issuer in a managed portfolio to a maximum of $5 million.

We sell a significant portion of our products through third-party retailers and distributors. As a result, we face risks related to the collectibility of our trade accounts receivable. To appropriately manage this risk, we perform ongoing evaluations of customer credit and limit the amount of credit extended as we deem appropriate but generally do not require collateral. We maintain reserves for estimated credit losses and these losses have historically been within our expectations. However, since we cannot necessarily predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will continue to be adequate.

Due to changes in our distributor relationships during fiscal 2002, we are selling an increasing proportion of our software products directly to a variety of retailers rather than through a few major distributors. No distributor or individual retailer accounted for 10% or more of total net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 or 2003, nor did any customer account for 10% or more of accounts receivable at July 31, 2002 or October 31, 2002.

In connection with the sale of our Quicken Loans mortgage business in July 2002, we agreed to continue providing to the purchasing company a line of credit of up to $375.0 million to fund mortgage loans for a transition period of up to six months. The line is secured by the related mortgage loans and had an outstanding balance of $245.6 million at July 31, 2002 and $180.1 million at October 31, 2002. The line expires on January 31, 2003. As part of the consideration for the sale of the business, we also held a five-year promissory note in the principal amount of $23.3 million from the purchasing company. The note was repaid in October 2002. See Note 6.

We rely on three third party vendors to perform substantially all outsourced aspects of manufacturing and distribution for our primary retail desktop software products. We also have two key single-source vendors for our financial supplies business. One of these vendors prints and fulfills orders for all of our checks and most other products for our financial supplies business and the other vendor operates our supplies sales website. We have acquired the source code for that website and plan to begin operating it internally in January 2003. While we believe that relying heavily on key vendors improves the efficiency and reliability of our business operations, relying on any one vendor for a significant aspect of our business can have a significant negative impact on our revenue and profitability if that vendor fails to perform at acceptable service levels.

Recent Pronouncements

On June 29, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS 142 supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets,” and provides that goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life will no longer be amortized. However, these assets must be reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. The shift from an amortization approach to an impairment approach applies to all acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001. We adopted the remaining elements of this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and therefore ceased amortizing goodwill for acquisitions made prior to July 1, 2001. However, it is possible that in the future we may incur impairment charges related to the goodwill already recorded and to goodwill arising out of future acquisitions. In addition, we will continue to amortize our purchased intangible assets and to assess those assets for impairment as appropriate.

As of the date of adoption of SFAS 142 on August 1, 2002, we had an unamortized acquired intangible assets balance of $123.6 million and an unamortized goodwill balance of $430.8 million. These balances reflect the transfer of $1.9 million in assembled workforce from intangible assets to goodwill in accordance with SFAS 142. In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation provisions under SFAS 142, we completed a goodwill impairment review as of August 1, 2002 and found no impairment.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which applies to financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 supercedes FASB Statement 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” and portions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations.” SFAS 144 provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets we expect to dispose of and significantly changes the criteria for classifying an asset as held-for-sale. This classification is important because held-for-sale assets are not depreciated and are stated at the lower of fair value or carrying amount. SFAS 144 also requires expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in the period(s) in which the losses are actually incurred, rather than when the amount of the loss is estimated, as was previously required. We adopted SFAS 144 effective August 1, 2002 and there was no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities.” This statement revises the accounting for activities relating to exiting or disposing of businesses or assets under EITF Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity.” A formal commitment to a plan to exit an activity or dispose of long-lived assets will no longer be sufficient to record a one-time charge for most exit and disposal costs. Instead, companies will record exit or disposal costs when they are incurred and can be measured at fair value, and will subsequently adjust the recorded liability for changes in estimated cash flows. The provisions of SFAS 146 are effective prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Companies may not restate previously issued financial statements for the effect of the provisions of SFAS 146, and liabilities that a company previously recorded under EITF Issue No. 94-3 are not affected. We will assess the impact of adoption of SFAS 146 based on the nature of any exit or disposal activities that are ongoing at that time.

4. Comprehensive Net Income (Loss)

SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive net income (loss) and its components in stockholders’ equity. SFAS 130 requires the components of other comprehensive income (loss), such as changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities and foreign translation adjustments, to be added to our net income (loss) to arrive at comprehensive net income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) items have no impact on our net income (loss) as presented in our statement of operations.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes, were as follows:

5. Acquisition

On September 13, 2002, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Blue Ocean Software, Inc. for approximately $177.3 million in cash. We paid $16.5 million of the purchase price into a third party escrow account, to be held for a maximum of 18 months pending the finalization of certain financial calculations that may affect the purchase price.

Blue Ocean offers software solutions that help businesses manage their information technology resources and assets. We acquired this company as part of our Right for My Business strategy to offer business solutions that go beyond accounting software to address a wider range of management challenges that small businesses face. Blue Ocean became part of our Other Small Business Products and Services business segment.

With the assistance of a professional valuation services firm, we made a preliminary allocation of the purchase price during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. We do not expect that any adjustments to the purchase price or the purchase price allocation will be material. We allocated approximately $13.2 million of the purchase price to purchased technology and $150.5 million to goodwill. In addition, $7.8 million was allocated to in-process research and development and charged to expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The purchased technology is being amortized over six years. None of the goodwill acquired in this transaction will be deductible for income tax purposes. Blue Ocean’s results of operations from September 14, 2002 forward were included in our results of operations and were not material.

The preliminary purchase price allocation for the Blue Ocean acquisition was as follows:

6. Discontinued Operations

On July 31, 2002, we sold our Quicken Loans mortgage business and accounted for the sale as discontinued operations. In accordance with APB Opinion No. 30, the operating results of Quicken Loans have been segregated from continuing operations in our statement of operations for all periods prior to the sale, including the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Quicken Loans revenue was $40.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and income taxes offset against income from discontinued operations amounted to $5.5 million for that period.

Table of Contents

As part of the sale transaction, we received a five-year secured promissory note in the principal amount of $23.3 million from a newly-created company, Rock Acquisition Corporation. We also retained a 12.5% non-voting equity interest in that company. We accounted for this investment on a cost basis since we did not have the ability to exercise significant influence over Rock. We also agreed to continue providing to Quicken Loans a secured line of credit of up to $375.0 million to fund mortgage loans for a transition period of up to six months. The line expires on January 31, 2003. Rock also licensed the right to use our Quicken Loans trademark for its residential home loan and home equity loan products and we entered into a distribution agreement with Rock through which it will provide mortgage services on Quicken.com.

In October 2002, we sold our residual minority equity interest in Rock to the majority shareholders of Rock. We also received payment in full of the $23.3 million promissory note and related accrued interest due from Rock. The $5.6 million gain on disposal of Quicken Loans discontinued operations recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 included a gain of $6.4 million for the sale of our residual equity interest, a charge of $0.3 million that was the result of the final audit of the tangible shareholders’ equity balance of Quicken Loans, and $0.5 million in legal and other expenses. We did not record a tax benefit related to the transaction because we cannot be assured that we will realize the tax benefit. The trademark license and distribution agreements that we entered into when we sold Quicken Loans remain in effect. Fees under these agreements will be recorded as other income on a cash basis. There was no income recorded under these agreements in the first quarter of fiscal 2003.

7. Industry Segment and Geographic Information

SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for the way in which public companies disclose certain information about reportable segments in the company’s financial reports. Consistent with SFAS 131, we have defined ten reportable segments, described below, based on factors such as how we manage our operations and how our chief operating decision maker views results. In fiscal 2003 we created three new reportable segments from our fiscal 2002 Small Business segment: QuickBooks, Financial Supplies and Other Small Business Products and Services. We also began reporting our Vertical Business Management Solutions segment separately from our Other segment. These changes reflect our continuing focus on and evolution of our Right for My Business strategy for small businesses. All reportable segments except Global Business are based in the United States and sell primarily to customers located there. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2003 presentation.

QuickBooks product revenue is derived primarily from QuickBooks desktop software products. QuickBooks services revenue is derived from QuickBooks Online Edition.

Employer Services product revenue is derived primarily from our QuickBooks Do-It-Yourself Payroll offering, which consists of current payroll tax tables that we provide on a subscription basis to small businesses that prepare their own payrolls. Services revenue for this segment is derived primarily from our outsourced payroll services. Our outsourced payroll services consist of QuickBooks Assisted Payroll Service, a payroll service that is integrated with QuickBooks and handles the back-end aspects of payroll processing, including tax payments and filings; and Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll, which provides traditional, full service payroll processing, tax payment and check delivery services. Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll encompasses the business of CBS Employer Services, Inc., which we acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. Our outsourced payroll business also includes our Premier Payroll Service, which provides traditional full service payroll outsourcing, tax payment and check delivery services distributed through certain financial institutions.

Financial Supplies product revenue is derived primarily from financial supplies, such as paper checks, envelopes, invoices and stationery, for small businesses and individuals and from tax forms, tax return presentation folders and other supplies for professional tax preparers.

Other Small Business Products and Services product revenue for fiscal 2003 is derived primarily from Intuit Information Technology Solutions (formerly Blue Ocean Software, Inc.), a provider of software solutions that help businesses manage their information technology resources and assets. We acquired Blue Ocean in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Services revenue for this segment is derived primarily from QuickBooks support plans. Other revenue consists of royalties from small business online transactions such as QuickBooks Merchant Account Service and QuickBooks Online Billing.

-15-


Table of Contents

Consumer Tax product revenue is derived primarily from TurboTax federal and state consumer desktop tax preparation products. Consumer Tax services revenue is derived primarily from TurboTax for the Web online tax preparation services and consumer electronic filing services.

Professional Accounting Solutions product revenue is derived primarily from ProSeries and Lacerte professional tax preparation products. Professional Accounting Solutions services revenue is derived primarily from electronic filing and training services.

Personal Finance product revenue is derived primarily from Quicken desktop software products. Personal Finance services revenue is minimal. Other revenue consists of royalties from consumer online transactions and Quicken.com advertising revenue.

Vertical Business Management Solutions (“VBMS”) revenue is derived from four businesses that we acquired in fiscal 2002 that provide small business management solutions for vertical industries. Those businesses are Intuit Eclipse Distribution Management Solutions, Intuit MRI Real Estate Solutions, Intuit Construction Business Solutions and Intuit Public Sector Solutions. VBMS product revenue is derived from business management software that is specific to the industries these businesses serve. VBMS service revenue consists primarily of installation, consulting and training services.

Global Business product revenue is derived primarily from localized versions of QuickBooks and Quicken as well as QuickTax desktop software products in Canada; localized versions of QuickBooks and Quicken as well as TaxCalc desktop software products in the United Kingdom; and Yayoi small business desktop accounting products in Japan. Global Business services revenue primarily consists of revenue from software maintenance contracts sold with Yayoi software in Japan.

Other includes revenue and segment operating income (loss) from businesses that have been discontinued due to divestitures or are insignificant. Other also includes reconciling items such as acquisition-related costs (which include acquisition-related charges, amortization of purchased software and charges for purchased research and development) and other common costs not allocated to specific segments.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1. Except for goodwill and purchased intangible assets, Intuit does not generally track assets by reportable segments and, consequently, does not disclose assets by reportable segments. The following results for the first quarters of fiscal 2002 and 2003 are broken out by our reportable segments.

8. Commitments

Mortgage Line of Credit

In connection with the sale of our Quicken Loans mortgage business in July 2002, we agreed to continue providing to the purchasing company a line of credit of up to $375.0 million to fund mortgage loans for a transition period of up to six months. The line of credit is secured by the related mortgage loans and the principal balance outstanding of $180.1 million at October 31, 2002 was included on our balance sheet under amounts due from discontinued operations entities. The line expires on January 31, 2003. See Note 6.

Reserve for Vacant Facilities

During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, we concluded that we would not occupy two vacant leased buildings in Mountain View, California and that we would be unable to recover a substantial portion of our lease obligations by subleasing the vacant space. The resulting $13.2 million charge was equal to the remaining future lease commitments for these facilities, net of estimated future sublease income. The estimated costs of abandoning these leased facilities reflected management’s best estimates based on market information and trend analyses compiled by our facilities management team with the help of a commercial real estate brokerage firm retained by Intuit. We continue to evaluate our assumptions quarterly for any potentially significant change to the reserve. No material change has been necessary to date.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we made cash lease payments for these two buildings of $0.6 million and there was a remaining balance of $11.9 million in the reserve at October 31, 2002. The short-term portion of the reserve ($2.1 million) is in other current liabilities and the remaining long-term portion is in long-term obligations on our balance sheet. We expect to use the total reserve by the end of fiscal 2010. Our actual future cash payments may exceed the total reserve balance by a maximum of $3.7 million if we are unable to sublease either of the properties.

10. Income Taxes

We compute our provision for or benefit from income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to income or loss from recurring operations and other taxable items. We recorded income tax benefits on pre-tax losses in the first quarters of fiscal 2002 and 2003. Our effective tax rate for those quarters differed from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the effect of the items in the table below.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Repurchase Program

In May 2001, Intuit’s Board of Directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $500.0 million of common stock from time to time over a three-year period. In July 2002, our Board of Directors increased the authorized purchase amount by $250.0 million to a total of $750.0 million. The stock repurchase program is intended to help offset some of the dilution resulting from the issuance of shares under Intuit’s equity incentive stock plans. Shares of stock repurchased under the program become treasury shares. During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we repurchased 6,629,844 shares of our common stock under this program for an aggregate cost of approximately $300.3 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we also reissued 1,805,291 shares of treasury stock in connection with stock incentive plans. From inception of the program through October 31, 2002, we had repurchased a total of 14,230,183 shares of our common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $627.3 million.

When we reissue treasury shares, if the proceeds from the sale are more than the average price we paid to acquire the shares, we record an increase in additional paid-in capital. Conversely, if the proceeds from the sale are less than the average price we paid to acquire the shares, we record a decrease in additional paid-in capital to the extent of increases previously recorded for similar transactions, and a decrease in retained earnings for any remaining amount.

Repurchases through October 31, 2002 have had no significant impact on our net income or loss per share. We intend to continue using our cash and cash equivalents to fund these repurchases in amounts and at such times as we deem appropriate.

Distribution and Dilutive Effect of Options

We provide equity incentives to our employees (including those we hire as a result of acquisitions) and to our independent Board members through a carefully managed, broad-based stock incentive program. The following table shows option grants to Named Executives and to all employees for the periods indicated. Under Securities and Exchange Commission rules for proxy statements, Named Executives are defined as the company’s chief executive officer and each of the four other most highly compensated executive officers.

Grants to Named Executives during the period as a percentage of outstanding shares
    0.2 %     0.2 %     0.4 %
Options held by Named Executives as a percentage of total options outstanding
    11.5 %     10.5 %     9.0 %

We define net option grants as options granted less options canceled or expired and returned to the pool of options available for grant. Options granted to our Named Executives as a percentage of the total options granted to all employees will vary significantly from quarter to quarter, due in part to the timing of annual performance-based grants to Named Executives. For example, first quarter fiscal 2003 Named Executive grants as a percentage of total grants were higher than we expect for fiscal 2003 as a whole because of performance grants to Named Executives during the first quarter.

Stock-Based Incentive Program

We follow APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” in accounting for these stock-based incentives. See Note 1. In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation.” Although SFAS 123 allows us to continue to follow the APB 25 guidelines, we are required to disclose annually our pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as if we had adopted SFAS 123. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we are voluntarily disclosing pro forma SFAS 123 results on a quarterly basis. The pro forma impact of applying SFAS 123 in the first quarters of fiscal 2002 and 2003 does not necessarily represent the pro forma impact in future quarters or years.

To determine the pro forma impact, we have employed the widely used Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted. This valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. This model also requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our outstanding stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect this estimate, we believe the Black-Scholes model does not provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our stock options. Inputs used for the valuation model are set forth in the table below.

Table of Contents

The following table illustrates the effect on our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based incentives using the Black Scholes model. For purposes of this reconciliation, we add back to previously reported net income (loss) all stock-based incentive expense that relates to acquisitions then deduct the pro forma stock-based incentive expense determined under the fair value method for all awards. The pro forma stock-based incentive expense has no impact on our cash flow. In the future, we may elect, or be required, to use a different valuation model, which could result in a significantly different impact on our pro forma net income (loss).

12. Litigation

On March 3, 2000, a class action lawsuit, Bruce v. Intuit Inc., was filed in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. Two virtually identical lawsuits were later filed: Rubin v. Intuit Inc., was filed on March 8, 2000 in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York and Newby v. Intuit Inc. was filed on April 27, 2000, in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. The Bruce and Newby lawsuits were consolidated into one lawsuit, In re Intuit Privacy Litigation, filed on July 28, 2000 in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. Following Intuit’s successful motion to dismiss several of the claims, an amended complaint was filed on May 2, 2001. A similar lawsuit, Almanza v. Intuit Inc. was filed on March 22, 2000 in the Superior Court of the State of California, San Bernardino County, Rancho Cucamonga Division. An amended complaint in the Almanza suit was filed on October 26, 2000. These purported class actions alleged violations of various federal and California statutes and common law claims for invasion of privacy based upon the alleged intentional disclosure to third parties of personal and private customer information entered at Intuit’s Quicken.com Web site. The complaints sought injunctive relief, orders to disgorge profits related to the alleged acts, and statutory and other damages. In August 2001, Intuit and the plaintiffs’ counsel in all of the cases except Rubin reached an agreement in principle to resolve the cases, subject to court approval, based on terms that are not material to Intuit. The Rubin case was dismissed on November 19, 2001.

Intuit is subject to other routine legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and threatened litigation, that arise in the normal course of our business. We currently believe that the ultimate amount of liability, if any, for any pending claims of any type (either alone or combined) will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain, and either unfavorable or favorable outcomes could have a material negative impact. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on Intuit because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Caution about Forward-Looking Statements

Throughout this Report, we make forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our business and our industry, and that reflect our beliefs and assumptions based on information available to us at the date of this Report. In some cases, you can identify these statements by words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” and other similar terms. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth, our strategies and trends we anticipate in our businesses and the markets in which we operate and the competitive nature and anticipated growth of those markets.

We caution investors that forward-looking statements are only predictions, based on our current expectations about future events. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Some of the important factors that could cause our results to differ are discussed in this Item 2 under the caption “Risks That Could Affect Future Results.” We encourage you to read that section carefully. You should carefully consider those risks, in addition to the other information in this Report, in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2002 (filed with the SEC on September 25, 2002) and in our other filings with the SEC, before deciding to invest in our stock or to maintain or change your investment. We caution investors not to rely on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date of this Report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any reason, except as required by law.

Overview

Intuit’s Mission. Intuit’s mission is to revolutionize how people manage their financial lives, and how small businesses and accounting professionals manage their businesses. Our goal is to create changes so profound customers wouldn’t dream of going back to their old ways of keeping their books, doing their taxes or managing their personal finances. Intuit is a leading provider of small business, tax preparation and personal finance software products and services that simplify complex financial tasks for small businesses, consumers and accounting professionals. Our principal products and services include: small business accounting and business management solutions, including our QuickBooks line of products and services as well as our Intuit line of industry-specific vertical business management solutions; TurboTax consumer tax products and services; ProSeries and Lacerte professional tax products and services; and Quicken personal finance products and services.

Seasonality. Our tax businesses are highly seasonal. Sales of tax preparation products and services are heavily concentrated in the period from November through April. These seasonal patterns mean that our total net revenue is usually highest during our second and third quarters ending January 31 and April 30. We typically report losses in our first and fourth quarters ending October 31 and July 31 when revenue from our tax businesses are minimal, but operating expenses to develop new products and services continue at relatively consistent levels.

Business Models. The business models for many of our products and services provide us with significant profit leverage, for three primary reasons. First, these businesses have relatively high fixed costs and low variable costs, so as we increase units sold, we generate more profit per incremental unit sold. Second, as customers move to some of our higher-end products and services, the better product and service mix is resulting in more revenue and profit per customer. Third, as we offer products and services with greater functionality, we can increase prices to reflect the greater value that we deliver to customers.

Expanding Customer Segments and Product and Service Offerings. During the last year, we have expanded both the customer segments that we serve, as well as the products and services that we offer our target customers. Historically, we targeted individuals and small businesses with less than 20 employees. We continue to serve those segments with products and services such as QuickBooks, TurboTax and Quicken. In addition, we are now targeting small businesses with up to 250 employees. We are addressing this new customer segment with a number of new products and services under our Right for My Business strategy. We are introducing industry-specific solutions to

meet the specialized requirements of small businesses in selected vertical industries by developing industry-specific versions of QuickBooks, and acquiring companies that offer business management solutions to small businesses in selected vertical businesses. In addition, we introduced new versions of QuickBooks for companies that, due to their larger size or complexity, have more demanding accounting needs. We have also introduced business solutions that go beyond accounting software to address a wider range of business management challenges that small businesses face. We expect to continue to expand in these directions over the next several years.

Evolving Distribution Channels. We have been expanding our distribution channels to accommodate the expansion of the customer segments we serve and the range of products and services we offer. In the retail channel, we are selling an increasing proportion of our software products directly to a variety of retailers rather than through a few major distributors. As we offer more complex, higher priced software products than our traditional retail software products, we expect that direct sales will become an increasingly important source of revenue and new customers. In addition, as we add products and services that are complimentary to our core products, we are focusing on strengthening our cross-selling capabilities. This allows us to generate additional revenue from our existing customers, particularly our small business customers.

Impact of Acquisitions. Our recent acquisitions of businesses and assets have had a significant impact on the comparability of our results. We have completed six acquisitions since the beginning of fiscal 2002 — four “vertical,” or industry-specific business management solutions, and two “horizontal” solutions that go beyond accounting software to address small business management needs. These acquired businesses generated no revenue for Intuit in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and a total of $31.5 million in total net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. To the extent that aggregate revenue from companies we acquire exceeds their aggregate revenue for the equivalent year-ago period before we acquired them, we consider the revenue to be organic growth rather than growth from acquisitions. On that basis, approximately one-third of our revenue growth during the first quarter of fiscal 2003 was organic growth and two-thirds came from acquisitions. For the full fiscal year, we expect about two-thirds of our revenue growth to be organic.

The impairment and/or amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets we have acquired in connection with acquisitions has also had a significant impact on our operating results, and on the comparability of results from period to period and year over year. During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded amortization of goodwill and other intangibles and other acquisition-related charges of $41.1 million. Starting with the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we are not amortizing goodwill recorded in connection with acquisitions, in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards No. 142. As a result, our acquisition-related charges significantly decreased during the first quarter of fiscal 2003, to $9.5 million. However, in the future we may incur impairment charges related to existing goodwill, as well as to goodwill arising out of future acquisitions. Also, future acquisitions may result in significant expenses, including amortization of purchased software, charges for in-process research and development and deferred compensation expenses.

Impact of Dispositions. Dispositions of businesses and assets have also had a significant impact on the comparability of our results. In fiscal 2002, we sold our Quicken Loans mortgage business. We accounted for the sale as discontinued operations, which resulted in net income from discontinued operations of $9.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, and a gain on disposal of discontinued operations of $5.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a loss of $27.0 million on impairment of long-lived asset relating to the impairment of the asset we received from the purchaser of our Quicken Bill Manager business in May 2001.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can have a significant impact on our net revenue, operating income and net income, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our balance sheet. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. See Note 1 of the financial statements for more information about these critical accounting policies, as well as descriptions of other significant accounting policies.

     Net Revenue — Revenue Recognition. Intuit derives revenues from the sale of packaged software products, product support, professional services, outsourced payroll services and multiple element arrangements that may include any combination of these items. We follow the appropriate revenue recognition rules for each type of revenue. See Note 1 of the financial statements, “Net Revenue.” In general, we recognize revenue when

-25-


Table of Contents

       persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, we have delivered the product or performed the service, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. However, determining whether and when some of these criteria have been satisfied often involves assumptions and judgments that can have a significant impact on the timing and amount of revenue we report. For example, for multiple element arrangements we must make assumptions and judgments in order to allocate the total price among the various elements we must deliver, to determine whether vendor-specific evidence of fair value exists for each element and to determine whether and when each element has been delivered. If we were to change any of these assumptions or judgments, it could cause a material increase or decrease in the amount of revenue that we report in a particular period. Revenue that we cannot recognize in a particular period is reflected on our balance sheet as deferred revenue and recognized over time as the applicable revenue recognition criteria are satisfied.
 
     Net Revenue — Return and Rebate Reserves. As part of our revenue recognition policy, we estimate future product returns and rebate payments and establish reserves against revenue based on these estimates. Product returns by distributors and retailers principally relate to the return of obsolete products. Our return policy allows distributors and retailers, subject to certain contractual limitations, to return purchased products. For product returns reserves, we consider the volume and price mix of products in the retail channel, trends in retailer inventory, economic trends that might impact customer demand for our products (including the competitive environment and the timing of new releases of our products) and other factors. We fully reserve for obsolete products in the distribution channels.
 
       Our rebate reserves include distributor and retailer sales incentive rebates and end-user rebates. Our estimated reserves for distributor and retailer incentive rebates are based on distributors’ and retailers’ actual performance against the terms and conditions of rebate programs, which are typically entered into annually. Our reserves for end-user rebates are estimated based on the terms and conditions of the specific promotional rebate program, actual sales during the promotion, the amount of redemptions received, historical redemption trends by product and by type of promotional program and the economic value of the rebate.
 
       In the past, actual returns and rebates have not generally exceeded our reserves. However, actual returns and rebates in any future period are inherently uncertain. If we were to change our assumptions and estimates, our revenue reserves would change, which would impact the net revenue we report. If actual returns and rebates are significantly greater than the reserves we have established, the actual results would decrease our future reported revenue. Conversely, if actual returns and rebates are significantly less than our reserves, this would increase our future reported revenue. For example, a change of 1% in our return rate assumptions for QuickBooks, TurboTax and Quicken desktop software products would have increased or reduced fiscal 2002 net revenue by approximately $1.6 million, $1.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. If the historical data we use to calculate these estimates do not properly reflect actual returns or rebates, then we would make a change in the reserves in the period in which the determination is made. See Note 1 of the financial statements, “Net Revenue.”
 
     Reserves for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable. We make ongoing assumptions relating to the collectibility of our accounts receivable. The accounts receivable amount on our balance sheet includes a reserve for accounts that might not be paid. In determining the amount of the reserve, we consider our historical level of credit losses. We also make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations, and we assess current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. Our reserves have generally been adequate to cover our actual credit losses. However, since we cannot predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will continue to be adequate. If actual credit losses are significantly greater than the reserve we have established, that would increase our general and administrative expenses and reduce our reported net income. Conversely, if actual credit losses are significantly less than our reserve, this would eventually decrease our general and administrative expenses and increase our reported net income. See Note 1 of the financial statements, “Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers and Suppliers,” for more information about our accounts receivable.
 
     Goodwill, Purchased Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets — Impairment Assessments. We make judgments about the recoverability of goodwill, purchased intangible assets and other long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary impairment in the remaining value of the assets recorded on our balance sheet may exist. We test the impairment of goodwill annually or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise. In order to estimate the fair value of long-lived assets, we make various assumptions about the future prospects for the business that the asset relates to and typically estimate future cash flows to be generated by these businesses. Based on these assumptions and estimates, we determine whether we

-26-


Table of Contents

       need to take an impairment charge to reduce the value of the asset stated on our balance sheet to reflect its estimated fair value. Assumptions and estimates about future values and remaining useful lives are complex and often subjective. They can be affected by a variety of factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends, and internal factors such as changes in our business strategy and our internal forecasts. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made in the past have been reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact our reported financial results. More conservative assumptions of the anticipated future benefits from these businesses would result in greater impairment charges, which would decrease net income and result in lower asset values on our balance sheet. Conversely, less conservative assumptions would result in smaller impairment charges, higher net income and higher asset values. At October 31, 2002, we had $581.4 million in goodwill and $126.0 million in intangible assets on our balance sheet. See Note 1, “Goodwill, Purchased Intangible Assets and Other Long-lived Assets” and “Recent Pronouncements,” and Note 3 of the financial statements for more information about how we make these judgments.
 
     Income Taxes — Estimates of Effective Tax Rates, Deferred Taxes and Valuation Allowance. When we prepare our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income taxes based on the various jurisdictions where we conduct business. This requires us to estimate our actual current tax exposure and to assess temporary differences that result from differing treatment of certain items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which we show on our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized. To the extent we believe that realization is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. When we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in an accounting period, we must record a tax expense in our statement of operations. See Note 10 of the financial statements.
 
       Management must make significant judgments to determine our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against our net deferred tax asset. Our net deferred tax asset as of October 31, 2002 was $238.4 million, net of the valuation allowance of $9.3 million. We recorded the valuation allowance to reflect uncertainties about whether we will be able to utilize some of our deferred tax assets (consisting primarily of certain net operating losses carried forward by our international subsidiaries and certain state capital loss carryforwards) before they expire. The valuation allowance is based on our estimates of taxable income for the jurisdictions in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets will be realizable. While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, we cannot assure that we will not be required to increase the valuation allowance to take into account additional deferred tax assets that we may be unable to realize. An increase in the valuation allowance would have an adverse impact, which could be material, on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which we make the increase.

Results of Operations

GAAP and Company Pro Forma Results

The following table shows our results of operations for the periods indicated prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table also shows results on a company pro forma basis, and a reconciliation of GAAP to pro forma results. We provide pro forma results to give investors an alternative method of assessing our ongoing core business results. Pro forma results are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and are not a substitute for GAAP results. Although company pro forma information is prepared using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year, it may differ from the pro forma measures used by other companies.

Company pro forma net loss excludes acquisition-related charges, such as amortization of goodwill and intangible assets and impairment charges, and amortization of purchased software and charges for purchased research and development. It also excludes loss on impairment of long-lived asset, gains and losses from marketable securities and other investments, net gains and losses on divestitures, discontinued operations and the tax effects of these transactions.

QuickBooks revenue increased 55% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The increase reflected 32% higher unit sales, including unit sales of three new products with enhanced functionality that we did not offer during the first quarter of fiscal 2002 — QuickBooks Premier, QuickBooks Point of Sale and QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions. These new products have significantly higher average selling prices than our traditional line of QuickBooks products. Higher-end QuickBooks products launched during fiscal 2002 as part of our Right for My Business strategy accounted for almost half of the QuickBooks revenue growth during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Unit sales of our QuickBooks Basic and Pro products also increased more than 25% due to strong upgrade sales. We believe that upgrade sales for these products were strong in part due to the expansion of applications available through the Intuit Developer Network. For the full fiscal year, we expect QuickBooks revenue to grow 20 to 30%.

Employer Services

Employer Services product revenue is derived primarily from our QuickBooks Do-It-Yourself Payroll offering, which consists of current payroll tax tables that we provide on a subscription basis to small businesses that prepare their own payrolls. Services revenue for this segment is derived primarily from our outsourced payroll services. Our outsourced payroll services consist of QuickBooks Assisted Payroll Service, a payroll service that is integrated with QuickBooks and handles the back-end aspects of payroll processing, including tax payments and filings; and Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll, which provides traditional, full service payroll processing, tax payment and check delivery services. Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll encompasses the business of CBS Employer Services, Inc., which we acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. Our outsourced payroll business also includes our Premier Payroll Service, which provides traditional full service payroll outsourcing, tax payment and check delivery services distributed through certain financial institutions.

Employer Services revenue increased approximately 39% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the same period of the prior year. QuickBooks Do-It-Yourself Payroll revenue increased 28% due to 16% higher unit sales and 12% higher average selling prices driven by price increases. QuickBooks Assisted Payroll Service revenue increased 27% due to price increases in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and 13% higher unit sales. Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll revenue increased 79%, due almost entirely to our acquisition of CBS Employer Services, Inc., which contributed $6.7 million in revenue in its first full quarter of operations as part of Intuit. Premier payroll revenue was flat. We expect the CBS component of Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll to be the main source of growth for our Employer Services segment during the remainder of fiscal 2003.

Financial Supplies

Financial Supplies product revenue is derived primarily from financial supplies, such as paper checks, envelopes, invoices and stationery, for small businesses and individuals and from tax forms, tax return presentation folders and other supplies for professional tax preparers.

Financial Supplies revenue was essentially flat in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, we initiated price increases that resulted in 6% higher average selling prices and higher charges for shipping and handling. These increases were offset by 6% lower unit sales due to a decline in the rate at which new QuickBooks customers are buying financial supplies. Modest but stable growth has been typical for this business, and we expect that historical pattern to continue for fiscal 2003 as a whole.

Other Small Business Products and Services

Other Small Business Products and Services (“OSBPS”) product revenue is derived primarily from Intuit Information Technology Solutions (formerly Blue Ocean Software, Inc.), a provider of software solutions that help businesses manage their information technology resources and assets. We acquired Blue Ocean in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Services revenue for this segment is derived primarily from QuickBooks support plans. Other revenue consists of royalties from small business online transactions such as QuickBooks Merchant Account Service and QuickBooks Online Billing.

Table of Contents

Other Small Business Products and Services revenue increased 64% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Blue Ocean contributed $6.0 million or 68% of OSBPS revenue growth during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. QuickBooks support revenue grew 36%. Although the number of support plans did not increase, revenue increased due to continued strength in the higher-priced support plans for higher-end QuickBooks products such as QuickBooks Premier, QuickBooks Point of Sale and QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions, that we introduced during fiscal 2002.

Consumer Tax

Consumer Tax product revenue is derived primarily from TurboTax federal and state consumer desktop tax preparation products. Consumer Tax services revenue is derived primarily from TurboTax for the Web online tax preparation services and consumer electronic filing services.

Due to the seasonal nature of our consumer tax business, the first fiscal quarter typically generates only nominal revenue from consumer tax products and services compared to the second and third quarters of the fiscal year. Consumer Tax revenue increased $1.9 million or 45% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. We do not believe that results for the first quarter of fiscal 2003 are indicative of revenue trends for the full year, and we will not have complete results for the entire 2002 tax season until late in the fiscal year. Since fiscal 2000, we have seen an increasing portion of our annual revenue growth during the third quarter compared to the second quarter, and we expect that trend to continue during fiscal 2003. This trend results in part from more customers using our Web-based tax offerings, for which revenue peaks later in the tax season. However, retail sales have also shifted to later in the tax season.

The development and launch of our consumer tax products for the 2002 tax year were completed on schedule and products reached retail shelves in November 2002. This year we are offering versions of TurboTax that are specifically designed for investors, taxpayers preparing for retirement and Spanish-speaking taxpayers as part of our Right for Me product strategy. In addition, federal tax versions of TurboTax desktop products for Windows now include product activation technology that prevents a customer from using a single copy of TurboTax to print or electronically file a tax return from more than one personal computer. We believe these initiatives will contribute to revenue growth for the full tax season. However, there are still ongoing risks associated with our consumer tax business, including intense competition that could result in lower average selling prices and/or a decline in our share of desktop software sales in the retail channel.

Professional Accounting Solutions

Professional Accounting Solutions product revenue is derived primarily from ProSeries and Lacerte professional tax preparation products. Professional Accounting Solutions services revenue is derived primarily from electronic filing and training services.

Due to the seasonal nature of our Professional Accounting Solutions business, the first fiscal quarter typically generates only nominal revenue from professional tax products and services compared to the second and third quarters of the fiscal year. Professional Accounting Solutions revenue increased $0.6 million or 9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002, but we do not believe that this is indicative of revenue trends for the full year. We will not have complete results for the entire 2002 tax season until late in the fiscal year.

Personal Finance

Personal Finance product revenue is derived primarily from Quicken desktop software products. Personal Finance services revenue is nominal. Other revenue consists of royalties from consumer online transactions and Quicken.com advertising revenue.

Personal Finance total net revenue decreased 4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the same period of the prior year. Quicken revenue was essentially flat, reflecting the continuing overall lack of growth in the personal finance desktop software category. An aggregate 8% higher average selling price in the retail channel due primarily to the second quarter fiscal 2002 introduction of Quicken Premier offset a 6% decline in unit sales. Total online services revenue decreased 14% due to the continuing industry-wide decline in spending by purchasers of Internet advertising and our exit from certain online businesses in fiscal 2002. We expect the market for Personal Finance products and services to continue to be flat or decline in the remainder of fiscal 2003.

Vertical Business Management Solutions

Vertical Business Management Solutions (“VBMS”) revenue is derived from four businesses that we acquired in fiscal 2002 that provide small business management solutions for vertical industries. Those businesses are Intuit Eclipse Distribution Management Solutions, Intuit MRI Real Estate Solutions, Intuit Construction Business Solutions, and Intuit Public Sector Solutions. VBMS product revenue is derived from business management software that is specific to the industries these businesses serve. VBMS service revenue consists primarily of installation, consulting and training services.

These vertical businesses contributed $18.8 million to first quarter 2003 total net revenue. We expect 10 to 30% revenue growth for these businesses in the aggregate during fiscal 2003, over their aggregate revenue for the comparable period before we acquired them. This is somewhat slower growth than we originally anticipated, due in part to some pressure on the higher-priced vertical solutions resulting from the current economic environment.

Global Business

Global Business product revenue is derived primarily from localized versions of QuickBooks and Quicken as well as QuickTax desktop software products in Canada; localized versions of QuickBooks and Quicken as well as TaxCalc desktop software products in the United Kingdom; and Yayoi small business desktop accounting products in Japan. Global Business services revenue primarily consists of revenue from software maintenance contracts sold with Yayoi software in Japan.

Global Business total net revenue decreased $1.3 million or 8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. This decline is due primarily to a decrease of $1.8 million in total revenue from Canada, which represents a 46% reduction from the prior year. This reduction is due primarily to acceleration to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 of shipment of our fall inventory of QuickBooks to retailers in anticipation of a price promotion in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Last season, we shipped our fall QuickBooks inventory in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Total revenue from the United Kingdom nearly doubled to $2.1 million due primarily to sales under a new QuickBooks distribution agreement with a financial institution in that country. In Japan, Yayoi product and software maintenance revenues totaling $10.4 million were flat compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting the continuing difficult economic environment there.

There are four components of our cost of revenue: (1) cost of products, which includes the direct cost of manufacturing and shipping our software products; (2) cost of services, which reflects direct costs associated with providing services, including data center costs relating to delivering Internet-based services; (3) cost of other revenue, which includes costs associated with generating advertising and marketing and online transactions revenue; and (4) amortization of purchased software, which represents the cost of depreciating products we obtained through acquisitions over their useful lives.

Cost of products as a percentage of product revenue decreased to 20% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 from 28% in the same period of the prior year. This was primarily due to strong sales of our new higher-priced QuickBooks products, QuickBooks Premier, QuickBooks Point of Sale and QuickBooks Enterprise. These products have higher prices but essentially the same manufacturing costs as our lower-priced QuickBooks products, resulting in lower cost of revenue per unit. We also continued to improve the packaging design for certain products and streamline some of our manufacturing processes during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. This enabled us to reduce the per-unit materials, manufacturing and shipping costs for our shrink-wrap software products, resulting in cost savings. We expect both of these factors to continue during the remainder of fiscal 2003, resulting in about 2% lower cost of products as a percentage of product revenue for the full fiscal year compared to fiscal 2002.

Cost of services as a percentage of services revenue decreased to 61% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 from 66% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. This decrease was primarily attributable to the growth in our Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll outsourced payroll business during the quarter. This service has lower unit costs than our Assisted Payroll offering, which grew only modestly.

Cost of other revenue as a percentage of other revenue decreased to 30% in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 from 32% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we moved a large number of servers that supported Quicken.com from an external hosting company to our own data center and streamlined the infrastructure. This led to decreased cost of other revenue as a percentage of other revenue for this business.

Amortization of purchased software increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002 as a result of additional amortization for purchased intangible assets relating to the acquisitions we completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002.

Customer Service and Technical Support

Customer service and technical support expenses were 19% of total net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, compared to 22% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. We continued to improve our efficiency in fiscal 2003 by increasing the proportion of customer service and technical support we provide through less expensive methods such as Web sites, online chat, email and other electronic means. We benefited from the fiscal 2002 implementation of a number of successful process excellence initiatives that reduced costs while maintaining or increasing service levels. Since support costs are to some extent driven by unit sales, we also began to experience somewhat lower support costs as a percentage of total net revenue due to the addition to the product mix of our newer versions of QuickBooks that have higher average selling prices. However, these benefits were partially offset by increased demand for customer service due to the increasing complexity of our products. We expect to continue to benefit from lower cost, more scalable electronic customer service and technical support delivery mechanisms and from product mix in the remainder of fiscal 2003.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing expenses were roughly flat as a percentage of revenue between the comparison periods, representing 35% and 36% of total net revenue in the first quarters of fiscal 2003 and 2002. In fiscal 2003, selling and marketing expenses increased as we continued to expand our small business marketing programs to support the Right for My Business strategy announced in September 2001. Marketing expenses for our new QuickBooks products with advanced functionality increased 56% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Our new vertical business management businesses added approximately $6.0 million or 8% to total selling and marketing expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. These increases were offset by a decrease in selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of total net revenue for our payroll business due to significant revenue growth in that segment. We expect selling and marketing expenses to increase as a percentage of total net revenue in the remainder of fiscal 2003 as we continue to expand marketing programs for our new QuickBooks products as well as for the other Right for My Business products and services we recently introduced and those we expect to introduce in the remainder of fiscal 2003.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were 29% of total net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002 and increased 34% in absolute dollars in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to fiscal 2002. During fiscal 2003, we continued to increase research and development spending in some of our highest-growth businesses — small business, consumer tax and professional accounting solutions. In particular, we continued to invest in new products that support our Right for My Business and consumer tax Right for Me strategies. We also added research and development expenses for our newly acquired vertical business management solutions. During the remainder of

-35-


Table of Contents

fiscal 2003, we expect to continue to make significant investments in research and development, particularly for new small business and vertical business management solutions products and services.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were 18% of total net revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, compared to 16% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. General and administrative expenses increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total net revenue in first quarter of fiscal 2003 primarily due to acquisition integration costs and the addition of general and administrative expenses for the companies we acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. Bad debt expense was also moderately higher in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 because we experienced unusually low levels of bad debt expense in fiscal 2002. We expect general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total net revenue to continue to exceed fiscal 2002 levels because of the foregoing factors.

Acquisition-Related Charges

In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, acquisition-related charges were $9.5 million, compared to $41.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable to discontinuing goodwill amortization for acquisitions we made prior to July 1, 2001 in accordance with the adoption of SFAS 142. For the first quarter of fiscal 2002, acquisition-related charges included the amortization of goodwill, purchased intangible assets and deferred compensation expenses arising from acquisitions. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2003, acquisition-related charges no longer included amortization of goodwill due to our implementation of this new FASB standard for accounting for goodwill acquired in a business combination. See Notes 1 and 3 of the financial statements.

Loss on Impairment of Long-lived Asset

The fiscal 2002 loss on impairment of long-lived asset related to the impairment of the asset we received from the purchaser of our Quicken Bill Manager business in May 2001. We regularly perform reviews to determine if the carrying values of our long-lived assets are impaired. During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, events and circumstances indicated impairment of this asset. Based on our resulting analysis of the asset’s fair value, we recorded a charge of $27.0 million to reduce the carrying value of this asset to its estimated fair value of zero, reflecting the deteriorating financial condition of the purchasing company.

Non-Operating Income and Expenses

Interest and Other Income

In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, interest and other income was $8.3 million, compared to $9.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease was partially due to a continuing decline in the interest we earned on our cash and short-term investment balances, reflecting significant decreases in market interest rates compared to the same quarter of the prior year. The decrease during fiscal 2003 was also a result of lower average cash and short-term investment balances due to the use of cash to fund our acquisitions and our stock repurchase program. See Notes 5 and 11 of the financial statements. Interest earned on customer payroll deposits is reported as revenue for our payroll business, and is not included in interest and other income.

Gains (Losses) on Marketable Securities and Other Investments, Net of Taxes

We recorded a pre-tax net gain relating to marketable securities and other investments of $0.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and a pre-tax net loss of $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The fiscal 2002 net loss included charges of $7.2 million for declines during the quarter in the market prices of our trading securities and S-1 options and $3.3 million to write down certain long-term investments for which the decline in fair value below carrying value was other-than-temporary. We sold all of our trading securities in the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

Income Tax Benefit

In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we recorded an income tax benefit of $25.8 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $86.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 30%. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded an income tax benefit of $36.3 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of

-36-


Table of Contents

$138.4 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 26.2%. Our effective tax rate for the first quarters of fiscal 2002 and 2003 differed from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the effect of the items in the table below.

As of October 31, 2002, we had net deferred tax assets of $238.4 million, which included a valuation allowance of $9.3 million for net operating loss carryforwards relating to our international subsidiaries and certain state capital loss carryforwards. The allowance reflects management’s assessment that we may not receive the benefit of certain loss carryforwards of our international subsidiaries and capital loss carryforwards in certain state jurisdictions. While we believe our current valuation allowance is sufficient, it may be necessary to increase this amount if it becomes more likely that we will not realize a greater portion of the net deferred tax assets. We assess the need for an adjustment to the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis.

Discontinued Operations

On July 31, 2002, we sold our Quicken Loans mortgage business segment and accounted for the sale as discontinued operations. In accordance with APB Opinion No. 30, the operating results of Quicken Loans have been segregated from continuing operations in our statement of operations for all periods prior to the sale, including the first quarter of fiscal 2002. In October 2002, we sold our residual equity interest in the purchasing company and recognized a gain of $5.6 million, net of income taxes, on the transaction. See Note 6 of the financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At October 31, 2002, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $831.2 million, a $419.2 million decrease from July 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to our use of cash for our stock repurchase program and for an acquisition.

We used $55.2 million in cash in our operations during the quarter ended October 31, 2002. The primary components of cash used in operations were a net loss from continuing operations of $60.2 million that was partially offset by adjustments made for non-cash expenses, including depreciation charges of $18.5 million and acquisition-related charges and amortization of purchased software of $12.4 million.

We generated $88.6 million in cash from investing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Our primary use of cash for investing activities was for the acquisition of Blue Ocean Software, Inc., which totaled $171.7 million net of cash we acquired. We generated cash from short-term investments of $290.4 million during the quarter, with proceeds of $569.7 million from the sale upon maturity of certain short-term investments partially offset by reinvestments of $279.3 million. As a result of our continued investment in information systems and infrastructure, we also purchased property and equipment of $27.7 million.

We used $257.1 million in cash for our financing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The primary component of cash used in financing activities was $300.3 million for the repurchase of treasury stock through our stock repurchase program. See Note 11 of the financial statements. This was partially offset by proceeds of $43.3 million we received from the issuance of common stock under employee stock plans.

Table of Contents

In the normal course of business, we enter into leases for new or expanded facilities in both domestic and global locations. We also evaluate, on an ongoing basis, the merits of acquiring technology or businesses, or establishing strategic relationships with and investing in other companies. We may decide to use cash and cash equivalents to fund such activities in the future.

In May 2001, Intuit’s Board of Directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $500.0 million of common stock over a three-year period. In July 2002, our Board of Directors increased the authorized purchase amount by $250.0 million to a total of $750.0 million. The stock repurchase program is intended to help offset some of the dilution resulting from the issuance of shares under Intuit’s employee stock plans. From inception of the program through October 31, 2002, we had repurchased a total of $627.3 million of common stock.

In connection with the sale of our Quicken Loans mortgage business in July 2002, we agreed to continue providing to the purchasing company an interest-bearing line of credit of up to $375.0 million to fund mortgage loans for a transition period of up to six months. The line is secured by the related mortgage loans and had an outstanding balance of $180.1 million at October 31, 2002. The line expires on January 31, 2003. See Note 6 of the financial statements.

Loans to executive officers and other employees totaled $21.3 million at July 31, 2002 and $20.6 million at October 31, 2002. Loans to executive officers are primarily relocation loans and none of these were made or modified since July 30, 2002. We do not intend to make or modify executive loans in the future. Loans are generally interest-bearing, secured by real property and have maturity dates of up to 10 years. See Note 13 of the financial statements.

We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet anticipated seasonal working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Restricted cash at October 31, 2002 included $5.8 million that we held in escrow in connection with our fiscal 2002 acquisition of CBS Employer Services, Inc. The escrow period expires in June 2003. Restricted cash at October 31, 2002 also included $7.3 million for product rebates due our customers.

Other obligations at October 31, 2002 consisted of amounts we owe to former stockholders of CBS Employer Services, Inc. in connection with our acquisition of that company in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. This contractual obligation is included in other current liabilities on our balance sheet. See Note 9.

Reserves for product returns were higher at October 31, 2002 compared to October 31, 2001 because of revenue growth and the increased complexity of new QuickBooks products such as QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions, which we reserve at a higher rate than our QuickBooks Basic and Pro products.

Recent Pronouncements

On June 29, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS 142 supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets,” and provides that goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life will no longer be amortized. However, these assets must be reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. The shift from an amortization approach to an impairment approach applies to all acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001. We adopted the remaining elements of this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and therefore ceased amortizing goodwill for acquisitions made prior to July 1, 2001. However, it is possible that in the future we may incur impairment charges related to the goodwill already recorded and to goodwill arising out of future acquisitions. In addition, we will continue to amortize our purchased intangible assets and to assess those assets for impairment as appropriate.

As of the date of adoption of SFAS 142 on August 1, 2002, we had an unamortized acquired intangible assets balance of $123.6 million and an unamortized goodwill balance of $430.8 million. These balances reflect the transfer of $1.9 million in assembled workforce from intangible assets to goodwill in accordance with SFAS 142. In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation provisions under SFAS 142, we performed a goodwill impairment review as of August 1, 2002 and found no impairment.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which applies to financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 supercedes FASB Statement 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” and portions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations.” SFAS 144 provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets we expect to dispose of and significantly changes the criteria for classifying an asset as held-for-sale. This classification is important because held-for-sale assets are not depreciated and are stated at the lower of fair value or carrying amount. SFAS 144 also requires expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in the period(s) in which the losses are actually incurred, rather than when the amount of the loss is estimated, as was previously required. We adopted SFAS 144 effective August 1, 2002 and there was no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities.” This statement revises the accounting for activities relating to exiting or disposing of businesses or assets under EITF Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity.” A formal commitment to a plan to exit an activity or dispose of long-lived assets will no longer be sufficient to record a one-time charge for most exit and disposal costs. Instead, companies will record exit or disposal costs when they are incurred and can be measured at fair value, and will subsequently adjust the recorded liability for changes in estimated cash flows. The provisions of SFAS 146 are effective prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Companies may not restate previously issued financial statements for the effect of the provisions of SFAS 146, and liabilities that a company previously recorded under EITF Issue No. 94-3 are not affected. We will assess the impact of adoption of SFAS 146 based on the nature of any exit or disposal activities that are ongoing at that time.

Risks That Could Affect Future Results

The factors discussed below are cautionary statements that identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements in this Report. Our fiscal 2002 Form 10-K and other SEC filings contain additional details about these risks, as well as other risks that could affect future results.

Company-Wide Risk Factors

Our revenue and earnings are highly seasonal. Seasonality and other factors cause significant quarterly and annual fluctuations in our revenue and net income. Several of our businesses are highly seasonal — particularly our tax businesses, but also small business and personal finance to a lesser extent. This causes significant quarterly fluctuations in our financial results. Revenue and operating results are usually strongest during the second and third fiscal quarters ending January 31 and April 30. We experience lower revenues, and often significant operating losses, in the first and fourth quarters ending October 31 and July 31. Our financial results can also fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to year due to a variety of factors, including changes in product release dates, and the timing of acquisitions, dispositions, goodwill and intangible assets impairment charges and gains and losses related to marketable securities.

Fluctuations in interest rates can cause significant quarterly and annual fluctuations in our net income and asset values. Recent declines in interest rates have resulted in a significant decline in the interest income we earned on our investment portfolio during recent reporting periods, which has had a negative impact on our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share. Declining interest rates can also reduce the value of our interest rate sensitive assets, such as certain assets that relate to our payroll business.

Our recent acquisitions have presented business integration challenges and we may not fully realize the intended benefits of these acquisitions. During the past few years, we have completed numerous acquisitions. These acquisitions have expanded our product and service offerings, personnel and geographic locations. Integrating and organizing acquired businesses creates challenges for our operational, financial and management information systems, as well as for our product development processes. This can put a strain on our resources and be expensive and time consuming. If we do not adequately address issues presented by growth through acquisitions, we may not fully realize the intended benefits (including financial benefits) of these acquisitions.

Our acquisition strategy entails a number of challenges that could limit our successful implementation of the strategy. A key component of our Right for My Business strategy is to continue to expand our product and service offerings, and we expect that a significant portion of this expansion will result from acquisitions. We could face the following risks relating to our strategy and future acquisitions, in addition to the integration challenges noted above:

          Increased competition for acquisition opportunities could inhibit our ability to complete suitable acquisitions, and could also increase the price we would have to pay to complete acquisitions.
 
          If we are unable to complete acquisitions successfully, we may not be able to develop and market products for new industries or applications with which we may not be familiar.
 
          Future acquisitions may require us to issue shares of our stock and stock options to owners of the acquired businesses, which would result in dilution to the equity interests of our stockholders.
 
          Despite our due diligence reviews, acquired businesses may bring with them unanticipated liabilities, business or legal risks or operating costs that could harm our results of operations or business, reduce or eliminate any benefits of the acquisition or require unanticipated expenses.
 
          If we fail to retain the services of key employees of acquired companies for significant time periods after the acquisition of their companies, we may experience difficulty in managing the acquired company’s business and not realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition.

Acquisition-related costs can cause significant fluctuation in our net income. Our recent acquisitions have resulted in significant expenses, including amortization of purchased software (which is reflected in cost of revenue), as well as charges for in-process research and development, and amortization and impairment of goodwill, purchased

-40-


Table of Contents

intangibles and deferred compensation (which are reflected in operating expenses). Total acquisition-related costs in the categories identified above were $263.4 million in fiscal 2001, $196.2 million in fiscal 2002 and $20.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. We expect total acquisition-related costs for fiscal 2003 to be $63.7 million, assuming no additional acquisitions or impairment charges. Additional acquisitions, and any additional impairment of the value of purchased assets, could have a significant negative impact on our future operating results.

Recent changes to Financial Accounting Standards Board guidelines relating to accounting for goodwill could make our acquisition-related charges less predictable in any given reporting period. Under the new FASB standard for accounting for goodwill, we must continue to recognize goodwill as an asset but will not amortize goodwill as previously required. Instead, we must separately test goodwill for impairment using a fair-value-based approach at least annually and also when an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. As a result of this shift, we are no longer recording charges for goodwill amortization. However, we may incur less frequent, but larger, impairment charges related to the goodwill already recorded and to goodwill arising out of future acquisitions as we continue to expand our business. As of October 31, 2002, we had an unamortized goodwill balance of approximately $581.4 million, which could be subject to impairment charges in the future.

If we are required to account for options under our employee stock plans as a compensation expense, it would significantly reduce our net income and earnings per share. There has been increasing public debate about the proper accounting treatment for employee stock options. Although we are not currently required to record any compensation expense in connection with option grants that have an exercise price at or above fair market value, it is possible that future laws or regulations will require us to treat all stock options as a compensation expense. Note 11 of the financial statements shows the impact that such a change in accounting treatment would have had on our net loss and net loss per share if it had been in effect during the reporting periods shown and if the compensation expense were calculated as described in Note 11.

A general decline in economic conditions could lead to reduced demand for our products and services. The continuing downturn in general economic conditions has led to reduced demand for a variety of goods and services, including software and other technology products. If conditions decline, or fail to improve, in geographic areas that are significant to us, such as the United States and Canada, we could see a significant decrease in the overall demand for our products and services that could harm our operating results.

If we do not continue to successfully develop new products and services in a timely manner, our future financial results will suffer. We believe that it is necessary to continually develop new products and services and to improve existing products and services to remain competitive in the markets we serve. Failure to do so may give competitors opportunities to improve their competitive position at our expense and result in declines in our revenue and earnings. However, developing and improving our products and services is a complex process involving several risks, including challenges in hiring and retaining highly qualified employees, the risk of delays in product and service launches and the risk of defects that hinder performance.

The expansion of our product and service offerings through internal growth and through recent and anticipated acquisitions creates risks due to the increasing complexity and decreasing predictability of our revenue streams. Our expanding range of products and services generates more varied revenue streams than our traditional desktop software businesses. The accounting policies that apply to these revenue streams are more complex than those that apply to our existing products and services. We expect this trend to continue with future acquisitions. For example, as we begin to offer additional features and options as part of multiple-element sales arrangements, we could be required to defer a higher percentage of our product revenue at the time of sale than we do for current products, which would decrease revenue at the time products are shipped, but result in more revenue in fiscal periods after shipment. In addition, some of our acquired businesses offer higher priced business management software products and services. Revenue attributable to these higher priced products and services tends to be less predictable than revenue from our traditional desktop products, due to longer sales and implementation cycles. These businesses also tend to rely on a relatively small number of large orders for a substantial portion of their revenue in a particular quarter, which could cause our quarterly revenue from these businesses to fluctuate.

The expansion of our product and service offerings creates risks due to the operational infrastructure required to support our expanded portfolio of products and services. Many of our newer businesses depend on a different operational infrastructure than our desktop software businesses, and we must continually develop, expand and modify our internal systems and procedures - including call center, customer management, order management, billing and other systems — to support these businesses.

Despite our efforts to adequately staff and equip our customer service and technical support operations, we cannot always respond promptly to customer requests for assistance. We occasionally experience customer service and support problems, including longer than expected “hold” times when our staffing is inadequate to handle higher than anticipated call volume. These situations can adversely affect customer relationships and our financial performance. In order to improve our customer service and technical support, we must continue to focus on eliminating underlying causes of service and support calls through product improvements, better order fulfillment processes and more robust self-help tools. We must also improve our ability to accurately anticipate demand for customer service and technical support.

We face risks relating to customer privacy and security and increasing regulation, which could hinder the growth of our businesses. Despite our efforts to address customer concerns about privacy and security, these issues still pose a significant risk, and we have experienced lawsuits and negative publicity relating to privacy issues. A major breach of customer privacy or security by Intuit, or even by another company, could have serious consequences for our businesses, including reduced customer interest and/or additional regulation by federal or state agencies. In addition, we have incurred significant expenses to comply with mandatory privacy and security standards and protocols. Additional similar federal and state laws, and/or laws that govern telemarketing activity, may be passed in the future, and the cost of complying with additional legislation could have a negative impact on our operating results.

We face several risks relating to our retail distribution channel. We face ongoing challenges in negotiating favorable terms (including financial terms) with retailers, due in part to the recent trend of declining importance of software as a retail category. In addition, any termination or significant disruption of our relationship with any of our major resellers could result in a decline in our net revenue. Also, any financial difficulties of our retailers could have an adverse effect on our operating expenses if uncollectible amounts from them exceed the bad debt reserves we have established.

If we are unable to significantly increase accountant-facilitated sales, it could have a negative impact on revenue growth. We are currently focused on working with accounting professionals in order to expand our opportunities to sell small business products and services to their clients. This strategy is important for our Professional Accounting Solutions, QuickBooks and Other Small Business Products and Services businesses. We face intense competition in this effort, as there are an increasing number of alliances between accountants and other professional tax preparers and providers of small business software and services that aim to capitalize on accountant-facilitated sales of small business products and services to their clients.

We rely on third-party vendors to handle substantially all outsourced aspects of manufacturing and distribution for our primary retail desktop software products. To manufacture and distribute our primary retail products at the time of product launches and to replenish products in the retail channel after the primary launch, we have manufacturing relationships with Modus Media and Sony, and a distribution arrangement with Ingram Micro Logistics. While we believe that relying on only three outsourcers for product launches and replenishment improves the efficiency and reliability of these activities, relying on any vendor for a significant aspect of our business can have severe negative consequences if the vendor fails to perform at acceptable service levels for any reason, including but not limited to financial difficulties of the vendor.

Actual product returns may exceed returns reserves, particularly for our consumer tax preparation software. We ship more desktop software products to our distributors and retailers than we expect them to sell, in order to reduce the risk that distributors or retailers will run out of products. This is particularly true for our consumer tax products, which have a short selling season. Like most software companies, we have a liberal product return policy and we have historically accepted significant product returns. We establish reserves for product returns in our financial statements, based on estimated future returns of products. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Policies — Net Revenue — Return and Rebate Reserves.” We closely monitor levels of product sales and inventory in the retail channel in an effort to maintain reserves that are adequate to cover expected returns. In the past, returns have not generally exceeded these reserves. However, if we do experience actual returns that significantly exceed reserves, it would result in lower net revenue.

Legal protection for our intellectual property is not always effective to prevent unauthorized use or copying. Current U.S. laws that prohibit copying give us only limited practical protection from software “pirates,” and the laws of many other countries provide very little protection. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, expensive and time-consuming. Although we have begun to incorporate product activation technology in some of our tax preparation products in order to reduce unauthorized sharing of the products, we expect that software piracy will continue to be a persistent problem for our desktop software products. In addition, the Internet may tend to

-42-


Table of Contents

increase, and provide new methods for, illegal copying of the technology used in our desktop and Internet-based products and services. We also face risks relating to our licensing of our intellectual property to third parties. In connection with our sale of our Quicken Loans mortgage business, we licensed the use of the Quicken Loans and Quicken Mortgage trademarks to the purchaser. If the purchaser violates the terms of the trademark license, it could result in serious and irreparable harm to Intuit’s reputation and the value of our Quicken-related brands.

Our ability to conduct business could be impacted by a variety of factors, such as electrical power interruptions, earthquakes, fires, terrorist activities and other similar events. Our business operations depend on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of a large number of computer and communications hardware and software systems. These systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from electrical power interruptions, telecommunication failures, earthquakes, fires, floods, terrorist activities and their aftermath, and other similar events. Any significant interruptions in our ability to conduct our business operations could reduce our revenue and operating income. Our business interruption insurance may not adequately compensate us for the impact of interruptions to our business operations.

Specific Factors Affecting Our QuickBooks, Small Business Products and Services and Vertical Business Management Solutions Segments

It is too early to provide assurance that our Right for My Business strategy will generate substantial and sustained revenue growth in the small business accounting and business management segments. A key component of our Right for My Business strategy is to continue to expand our small business accounting and management products and services, through internal growth and from acquisitions. To meet our growth goals, we must generate revenue from a wider range of market and customer segments as well as from new products and services. There are a number of risks associated with the strategy, including the following:

          Our strategy depends on our successfully completing acquisitions and integrating acquired companies, which presents a number of challenges as described above under “Company-Wide Risk Factors.”
 
          Our strategy is resulting in a dramatic increase in the number and complexity of the products and services that we offer. This is placing greater demands on our research and development, marketing and sales resources, as we must develop, market and sell both the new products and services as well as periodic enhancements to an expanding portfolio of products and services. This will also require us to continually develop, expand and modify our internal business operations systems and procedures to support new businesses, including our customer service and technical support call centers, and our customer management, order management, billing and other systems.
 
          Many of the new products and services we are and will be offering are much more complex than our traditional core desktop software products and are being priced accordingly. They will therefore require a more consultative sales process, and a higher level of post-sales support. If we are not able to effectively adapt our marketing, sales, distribution and customer support functions to accommodate these changes, we will not succeed in generating significant or sustained revenue from these new businesses.

We face a wide range of competitive risks that could impact our financial results. In the small business arena, we face current competition from competitors’ desktop software, as well as from other Web-based small business services products. Many competitors and potential competitors have begun providing, or have expressed significant interest in providing, accounting and business management products and services to small businesses. As we implement our Right for My Business strategy we face increased competitive threats from larger companies in bigger markets than we have historically faced.

Revenue growth for our vertical business management solutions may be hindered by a variety of factors, which could have a negative impact on overall company growth. Revenue growth for our vertical business management solutions is subject to numerous risks, including the negative impact of the current economic environment on customer purchases of the relatively high-priced software solutions offered by our vertical businesses, and the potential disruption to the businesses during the acquisition integration process. In addition, revenue growth in any particular period may be difficult to predict because of the complex revenue streams generated by these businesses, and the corresponding complexity in the accounting policies that apply to them.

Our employer services business faces a number of risks that could have a negative impact on revenue and profitability. For our employer services, we must be able to process customer data accurately, reliably and in a timely manner in order to attract and retain customers and avoid the costs associated with errors. Our payroll businesses other than our Do-It-Yourself product include interest on customer deposits as part of their revenue. If interest rates decline, it would result in less interest revenue for those businesses. In order to generate sustained growth for our Intuit Payroll Services Complete Payroll, we will be required to successfully develop and manage a more extensive and proactive direct field sales operation, which is a different distribution method than those we have historically relied on.

Specific Factors Affecting Our Consumer Tax Segment

We face intense competitive pressures from the private sector in our consumer tax preparation software business. There are formidable current and potential competitors in the private sector, and we expect competition to remain intense during fiscal 2003 and beyond. These competitive pressures can have a negative impact on our revenue, profitability and market position.

Our consumer tax preparation business also faces competition from publicly funded government entities. We face current and potential competition from a number of publicly-funded state government entities that are encroaching into the private sector tax preparation business by offering individual taxpayers electronic tax preparation and/or filing services, at no cost to individual taxpayers. This encroachment threat to the private sector tax preparation industry has been increasing in recent months. For example, in November 2002 the California Franchise Tax Board announced plans to significantly expand the state’s electronic tax filing program to enable many taxpayers to prepare their returns online, as well as file returns electronically. If state governmental agencies are ultimately successful in their efforts to develop consumer tax preparation and filing services and to gain consumer acceptance of those services, it could have a significant negative impact on our financial results in future years. The federal government announced a proposal in August 2002 that would mitigate the risk of government encroachment in federal tax preparation and filing services. Under an agreement signed in October 2002, for at least the next three years, a number of private sector companies, rather than the federal government, will provide Web-based federal tax preparation and filing services at no cost to lower income taxpayers and other underserved taxpayers through voluntary public service initiatives such as our Intuit Tax Freedom Project. Despite this positive development, future administrative, regulatory or legislative activity in this area could adversely impact Intuit and other companies that provide tax preparation software and services. Intuit is actively working with others in the private sector, as well as with state government policy makers, to help clarify the appropriate roles for government agencies and the private sector in the electronic commerce marketplace.

If we fail to maintain reliable and responsive service levels for our electronic tax offerings, we could lose revenue and customers. Our Web-based tax preparation and electronic filing services must effectively handle extremely heavy customer demand during the peak tax season. We face significant challenges in maintaining high service levels, particularly during peak volume service times. The exact level of demand for TurboTax for the Web and electronic filing is impossible to predict. If we are unable to meet customer expectations in a cost-effective manner, we could lose customers, receive negative publicity and incur increased operating costs, any of which could have a significant negative impact on the financial and market success of these businesses.

Specific Factors Affecting Our Personal Finance Segment

The long-term viability of our personal finance business will depend on our ability to provide new products and services that attract customers and that can generate revenue sources other than just advertising revenue. The demand for personal finance software such as Quicken has been weakening over recent years, and the demand for Internet advertising on Web sites like Quicken.com has declined precipitously. We must identify and capitalize on additional sources of revenue to provide sustainable future growth for our personal finance business. In an effort to stimulate customer demand and generate revenue growth, we recently launched Quicken Brokerage powered by Siebert, an online and telephone-based securities brokerage service for Quicken and Quicken.com customers made available through an exclusive strategic alliance with Siebert Financial Corp., the holding company for Muriel Siebert & Co. Inc. However, it is too early to tell whether this service will generate sustainable revenue growth. Furthermore, it is unlikely that the brokerage service, even if successful, will by itself be sufficient to sustain our personal finance business, so we must identify additional sources for growth.

Our personal finance products face aggressive competition that could have a negative impact on revenue, profitability and market position. Our Quicken products compete directly with Microsoft Money, which is

-44-


Table of Contents

aggressively promoted and priced. We expect competitive pressures for Quicken to continue, both from Microsoft Money and from Web-based personal finance tracking and management tools that are becoming increasingly available at no cost to consumers. Competitive pressures can result in reduced revenue and lower profitability for our Quicken product line. There are many competitors for our Internet-based personal finance products and services. However, the general downturn in Internet and technology stocks since March 2000 has resulted in significant consolidation, with fewer, but more financially sound, competitors surviving. This could make it more difficult for us to compete effectively.

ITEM 3
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Short-Term Investment Portfolio

We do not hold derivative financial instruments in our short-term investment portfolio. Our short-term investments consist of instruments that meet quality standards consistent with our investment policy. This policy dictates that, for short-term investments, we diversify our holdings and limit our short-term investments with any individual issuer in a managed portfolio to a maximum of $5 million.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk represents a component of market risk to us because significant declines in interest rates will cause unfavorable changes in our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share and in the value of our interest rate sensitive assets, liabilities and commitments, particularly those that relate to our payroll business. Interest rate movements affect the interest income earned on investments we hold in our short-term investment portfolio and the value of those investments.

Over the past few years, we have experienced significant reductions in our interest income due to declines in interest rates. A significant decrease in future interest rates will have a material impact on the interest income earned on our cash equivalents and short-term investments held at October 31, 2002.

Impact of Foreign Currency Rate Changes

We translate foreign currencies (primarily Canadian dollars, Japanese yen, and British pounds) into U.S dollars for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, currency fluctuations can have an impact on our financial results, though the historical impact has generally been immaterial. We believe that our exposure to currency exchange fluctuation risk is insignificant primarily because our global subsidiaries invoice customers and satisfy their financial obligations almost exclusively in their local currencies. Currency exchange risk is also minimized since foreign debt is due exclusively in local foreign currencies. For each of the three years ended July 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, there was an immaterial currency exchange impact from our intercompany transactions. Although the impact of currency fluctuations on our financial results has generally been immaterial in the past and we believe that for the reasons cited above currency fluctuations will not be significant in the future, there can be no guarantee that the impact of currency fluctuations will not be material in the future. As of October 31, 2002, we did not engage in foreign currency hedging activities.

ITEM 4
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


(a)    Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
     The SEC defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days before the filing date of this report (the “Evaluation Date”), concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for this purpose.
 
(b)    Changes in Internal Controls
 
     There were no significant changes in our internal controls or, to our knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date.

PART II
ITEM 1
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


On March 3, 2000, a class action lawsuit, Bruce v. Intuit Inc., was filed in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. Two virtually identical lawsuits were later filed: Rubin v. Intuit Inc., was filed on March 8, 2000 in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York and Newby v. Intuit Inc. was filed on April 27, 2000, in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. The Bruce and Newby lawsuits were consolidated into one lawsuit, In re Intuit Privacy Litigation, filed on July 28, 2000 in the United States District Court, Central District of California, Eastern Division. Following Intuit’s successful motion to dismiss several of the claims, an amended complaint was filed on May 2, 2001. A similar lawsuit, Almanza v. Intuit Inc. was filed on March 22, 2000 in the Superior Court of the State of California, San Bernardino County, Rancho Cucamonga Division. An amended complaint in the Almanza suit was filed on October 26, 2000. These purported class actions alleged violations of various federal and California statutes and common law claims for invasion of privacy based upon the alleged intentional disclosure to third parties of personal and private customer information entered at Intuit’s Quicken.com Web site. The complaints sought injunctive relief, orders to disgorge profits related to the alleged acts, and statutory and other damages. In August 2001, Intuit and the plaintiffs’ counsel in all of the cases except Rubin reached an agreement in principle to resolve the cases, subject to court approval, based on terms that are not material to Intuit. The Rubin case was dismissed on November 19, 2001.

Intuit is subject to other routine legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and threatened litigation, that arise in the normal course of our business. We currently believe that the ultimate amount of liability, if any, for any pending claims of any type (either alone or combined) will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain, and either unfavorable or favorable outcomes could have a material negative impact. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on Intuit because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

EXHIBIT 10.01

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

ADDENDUM FOR FULFILLMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES FOR FSG AND
P-TAP NON-IMPRINTABLE PRODUCTS

This addendum (the “Addendum”) is made and entered into as of 6th date of signing September, 2001 (“Addendum Effective Date”) by and between Intuit Inc. (“Intuit”) and the John H. Harland Company (“Harland”).

RECITALS

A.    Intuit and Harland are parties to a Supply Agreement made and entered into as of January 1, 2000 (“Supply Agreement”).
 
B.    As of October 25, 2001, the parties entered into a “Term Sheet for Fulfillment Products and Services for FSG and P-TAP Non-Imprintable Products” (“Term Sheet”) regarding their intent to enter into an Addendum to the Supply Agreement.
 
C.    As of October 25, 2001, the parties entered into an “Agreement for Purchase of Intuit-Owned Inventory for FSG and P-TAP Non-Imprintable Products” whereby Harland purchased from Intuit certain existing inventories of FSG and P-TAP non-imprintable products for subsequent sale by Harland back to Intuit in accordance with the Term Sheet (“Buy Back Products”).
 
D.    The parties are now entering into this Addendum to the Supply Agreement in order to replace and supercede the Term Sheet.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereby amend the Supply Agreement as follows:

1.    INTUIT PRODUCTS. The products and services listed in Exhibit A (P-TAP Fulfillment Services and Products), Exhibit B (FSG Products and Fulfillment Services), Exhibit C (Micr Toner Cartridges) (collectively, the “Addendum Products”) are deemed additional “Intuit Products” for all purposes of the Supply Agreement. Any products and services may be deleted from this list and this Addendum at Intuit’s sole discretion at any time as described below. For any products or services that Intuit in its sole discretion deletes from this list and this Addendum and does not plan to obtain from another supplier within a 12-month period, Intuit will provide 30 days notice to Harland. For any products or services that Intuit in its sole discretion deletes from this list and this Addendum and obtains from another supplier, and the volume of the product(s) to be deleted represents a material change in the annual dollar volume of all Addendum Products fulfilled by Harland as reasonably determined in Intuit’s sole discretion, Intuit will provide three months written notice to Harland. In the case that a product is deleted from this Addendum, Intuit will pay Harland for unsold FSG non-imprintable inventory, and work in process that will be completed within 30 days, that is not owned by Intuit up to six months worth based on the forecasting process in Section 7, unless other quantities were otherwise agreed to by both parties at time of inventory purchase. Costs of such inventory will not exceed the product prices charged by Harland to Intuit for Harland-owned inventory purchased pursuant to the relationship between the parties under this Addendum up to six months worth based on the forecasting process in Section 7, or the product costs due to suppliers for third party supplier-owned inventory purchased pursuant to such relationship up to six months worth based on the forecasting process in Section 7. Products or services may be added to this list and this Addendum at terms mutually agreed upon in writing by both Harland and Intuit. Intuit reserves the right to own the inventory of Addendum Products, and must approve of any vendor acting as Harland’s agent supplying Addendum Products.


*   We have requested confidential treatment for certain portions of this document pursuant to an application for confidential treatment sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We omitted such portions from this filing and filed them separately with the SEC.

 


 

2.    EXCLUSIVE PRODUCTS. Notwithstanding the definition of “Exclusive Intuit Products” in Appendix 1 of the Supply Agreement, the Addendum Products are not to be treated as “Exclusive Intuit Products”.
 
3.    NO RIGHT OF FIRST NEGOTIATION. Harland will have no rights under Section 4(c) of the Supply Agreement with respect to any Addendum Products.
 
4.    TERM. The term of the Addendum will be coterminous with the term of the Supply Agreement. In addition to the grounds for termination mentioned in Section 45 of the Supply Agreement, Intuit shall have the right to review and terminate without penalty the provisions of this Addendum at any time following a sixty (60) day notification and cure period should the product selection, quality, and/or service provided by Harland for the Addendum Products not meet the specifications that were mutually agreed to by Harland and Intuit. Termination of the provisions of this Addendum would not terminate the other provisions of the Supply Agreement. In case of termination, Intuit would purchase the non-defective, unsold FSG non-imprintable inventory owned by Harland and covered by this Addendum. For non-defective, unsold inventory or work in process owned by a third-party supplier of Addendum Products, Harland will facilitate the sale of such inventory and work in process to Intuit. Pursuant to this section, Intuit will purchase such inventory up to six months worth based on the forecasting process in Section 7. The purchase amounts will not exceed the product prices charged by Harland to Intuit for Harland-owned inventory purchased pursuant to this relationship, or the costs due to suppliers for supplier-owned inventory and work in process purchased pursuant to this relationship.
 
5.    SECURE SOURCING. If any circumstance occurs that prevents Harland or any third party supplier from effectively filling and shipping customer Orders in accordance with Intuit’s specified quality requirements and turnaround times, including but not limited to termination, financial issues, or any disasters, Intuit shall have the right to immediately purchase all Addendum Products in the possession or control of Harland or third-party suppliers, or immediately take possession of Intuit-owned products in the possession or control of Harland or third-party suppliers. In addition, Intuit shall have the right to immediately take over the sourcing of Addendum Products that are work in process and will be completed at a later date at third-party suppliers. Harland will make Harland-owned Addendum Products available at the prices that Harland charged by Harland to Intuit for them. Harland will also ensure that any third party supplier of Addendum Products will make these Products that are work in process and to be completed at a later date available to Intuit at the prices that the supplier agreed upon with Harland. Intuit will pay Harland reasonable additional costs for Harland’s cooperation in transferring such Addendum Products to Intuit.
 
6.    WAREHOUSING AND FULFILLMENT. Harland shall provide warehousing and fulfillment services for Addendum Products to meet the requirements as specified by Intuit, and will be responsible for ensuring the inventory availability of Addendum Products sourced by Harland to fulfill Intuit customer Orders in accordance with the inventory and forecasting process identified in Section 7 of this Addendum. Harland is responsible for the acts or omissions of any outsourced warehousing suppliers, and is required to ensure that any such approved outsourcers retain, at their expense, a policy of commercial general liability insurance listing Intuit as a third party beneficiary to the policy and naming Intuit as an additional insured. Such policies shall provide coverage adequate to cover any Addendum Products inventory included for warehousing services. Harland shall provide Intuit with a certificate of insurance as evidence of such coverage. Such certificate shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Intuit of cancellation or material change of such coverage.
 
7.    INVENTORY MANAGEMENT. Harland is responsible for guaranteeing inventory availability of all Addendum Products to fulfill Intuit customer Orders in accordance with the inventory and forecasting process identified in this Section. To support Harland in this activity, Intuit will meet with Harland on a regular basis to provide demand forecasts for seasonal and growing/declining Addendum Products, updates on promotions that could impact usage patterns, and to review Harland’s target inventory levels and replenishment plans. It is anticipated that Intuit and Harland will review this data on a periodic basis appropriate to the Addendum Product type (e.g. quarterly for steady usage products, monthly for growing/declining products, and with appropriate frequency during heavy seasonal periods). At these review meetings, Harland will identify in writing any run out dates, lead production times, and potential “excess

2


 

     inventory risk” Addendum Products that are highly dependent on forecasts vs. actual usage data. For such Addendum Products, Harland and Intuit will agree to a forecast, re-order points and quantities, and a review plan. For such Addendum Products only, if the actual usage is [ * ]or more less than forecast over a [ * ] period and results in excess inventory age of greater than six months, Intuit will have the option of one or more of the following: (i) [ * ] and [ * ] from [ * ] days; (ii) [ * ] such excess inventory and paying Harland for the [ * ] inventory that is not Intuit-owned at a cost not to exceed [ * ]; or (iii) paying a [ * ] per pallet per month storage cost for such excess inventory. Notwithstanding the above, Harland accepts responsibility for requesting any information it believes necessary to purchase and manage the inventory of Addendum Products effectively for both parties.
 
8.    SYSTEMS. Harland will fund the development, enhancements and ongoing support of connections to Intuit’s order entry and billing systems, and any changes needed to meet new businesses and services in connection with this Addendum. Harland is responsible for the funding and implementation of development, enhancement, and ongoing support of Harland’s systems, and for the systems of any supplier responsible for providing Addendum Products. The level of support will be prorated above the levels specified in the Supply Agreement based on the additional volumes resulting from additional products.
 
9.    SAME ORDER SHIPMENTS/PAIRINGS. The specific items paired in the same package are based primarily on the type of products, imprintables and non-imprintables, and size of the products. Harland will pair all items physically able and commercially reasonable in the same package for shipment. In addition, Harland will work with third party suppliers so that these suppliers can pair items in the same package for shipment.
 
10.    PERFORMANCE SCORECARD. Harland will measure and report its performance against the performance scorecard set forth in Exhibit D, and will use their best efforts to meet, exceed and improve performance. Following the end of each calendar quarter, designated team members from both parties will meet and review performance during the past quarter. In connection with these quarterly meetings, the parties will gather the data and rate Harland’s performance in accordance with the performance scorecard set forth in Exhibit D. Harland and Intuit will mutually agree upon any changes to the performance scorecard.
 
11.    TURN AROUND TIME. In lieu of the requirements of Section 18(a) of the Supply Agreement, Harland shall process and ship all non-imprintable Addendum Products in stock within 24 hours after receipt of the Order by Harland, provided both Harland and Intuit follow the inventory and forecasting process identified in Section 7 of this Addendum, and provided a Force Majeure event does not cause an interruption of service. For backorders, items should be shipped as soon as they are available on a first in, first out Order basis. In addition, Harland shall identify and provide Intuit with all backorder information in a quick and effective manner. This backorder notification process will be developed and agreed to by Harland and Intuit.
 
12.    SHIPPING METHODS.

        (a)    Harland will be responsible for shipping each completed Order to the Customer’s specified address, and will ensure that any carrier providing Addendum Products will ship each completed Order to the Customer’s specified address. Unless otherwise indicated on the Order or otherwise specified by Intuit, shipping shall be via ground, or comparable service where ground is not available. Harland will ensure that all suppliers that provide Addendum products can support shipping methods, including Ground, Next Day and Second Day at competitive costs. When the rates are not competitive at a third party supplier, and it is commercially reasonable, Harland will allow the third-party supplier of Addendum Products to utilize Harland’s freight rates.
 
        (b)    Harland will be responsible for the proactive management of carriers to negotiate and manage competitive freight costs, file and credit to Intuit refunds for lost or damaged shipments, and track and ensure the compliance of on-time and quality performance. Harland will report these performance measures monthly in the Performance Scorecard, Exhibit D, and work with their carriers to meet, exceed and improve performance.


*   We have requested confidential treatment for certain portions of this document pursuant to an application for confidential treatment sent to the SEC. We omitted such portions from this filing and filed them separately with the SEC.

        (c)    Harland will be responsible for the management of all carriers for Addendum Products and other Products supplied and/or fulfilled by Harland or their third party suppliers to ensure that the carrier meets 97% on time performance. Harland will be responsible for crediting Intuit for any charges, penalties or expedited fees resulting from lost or damaged shipments, and from mistakenly returned packages. In addition, Harland will credit Intuit for reimbursements made by the carrier to Harland for service failures, including failures to meet on-time shipping guarantees. Harland will use its best efforts in working with Intuit to recover these credits in a mutually agreeable and commercially reasonable manner and provide Intuit with a monthly accounting of such credits. Harland will pay to Intuit any credits pursuant to this section within 10 business days of receipt of such credits by Harland from carrier.

13.    QUALITY. Harland warrants and guarantees to FSG the quality of all non-imprintable Addendum Products in line with Intuit’s product specifications. Harland is responsible for replacing any defective product(s) at Harland’s costs, including any and all services and shipping costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Harland is not responsible for the quality of Buy Back Products, assuming that these Products have been properly stored.
 
14.    PERSONNEL. Harland will identify qualified primary contacts at Harland who will be available to work directly with Intuit as needed. In addition, Harland will identify at least one qualified contact at each third-party supplier of Addendum Products who Intuit will contact in coordination with Harland, with prior notification if practical, on an as needed basis.
 
15.    PRICING AND COSTS. For each Addendum Product and service provided pursuant to this Addendum, Harland will charge Intuit in accordance with the following:

          Exhibit A (Pricing for P-TAP Fulfillment Services and Products)
 
          Exhibit B (Pricing for FSG Products and Fulfillment Services)
 
          Exhibit C (Pricing for Micr Toner Products and Fulfillment Services)
 

            In addition, Harland will credit Intuit for material costs associated with any Addendum Products that were produced using Intuit-owned materials, excluding the products TPH and TPR where the pricing and costs in Exhibit A already reflect these credits.
 
            These mutually agreed upon prices should be competitive in the market, and in compliance with applicable laws, and will remain in effect from the Addendum Effective Date and will continue in effect thereafter during the term of this Addendum, subject to the following sections of the Supply Agreement: Section 38 (Future Cost Savings) and Section 40 (Allowable Price Adjustments) and provided that with respect to direct material costs only and in lieu of the specified direct material cost increase/decrease amount specified in Section 40(a), prices for Addendum Products [ * ]. Exempted from the application of Section 40 of the Supply Agreement are certain Addendum Products that need to be ordered within a term of less than one year, and where the prices are highly sensitive to volume variances. For such products identified by Harland 60 days in advance, Intuit and Harland will mutually agree to any price change every six months and/or prior to any inventory replenishment. Price changes will reflect prices that should be competitive in the market and in compliance with applicable laws, and will be effective when the new products begin to ship. Harland will work with Intuit on continuous improvements to reduce material, administrative, freight and warehousing costs, and will pass these savings to Intuit. Harland shall ensure that warehousing costs for Addendum Products are consistent with costs incurred by Harland for warehousing similar Harland materials, and such costs are competitive with those charged by suppliers in the same geographic areas for such services, products and/or materials. Intuit has the right to audit Harland’s storage and warehouse invoices on an ongoing basis.


*   We have requested confidential treatment for certain portions of this document pursuant to an application for confidential treatment sent to the SEC. We omitted such portions from this filing and filed them separately with the SEC.

Harland is responsible for ensuring that all third party suppliers of Addendum Products will also comply with the then-current version of Intuit’s privacy and security standards and mail handling procedures.
 
18.    BUSINESS CONTINUITY.

        (a)    Harland shall: (i) be responsible for business continuity of operations as to the products and services to be provided under this Addendum; (ii) within ninety (90) days after the Addendum Effective Date, submit to Intuit for approval a mutually agreed upon and reasonable business continuity plan (“Business Continuity Plan”) that mitigates and minimizes Intuit service interruptions; and (iii) update the Business Continuity Plan, subject to Intuit’s approval, to reflect changes in technology and industry standards on an annual basis.
 
        (b)    Harland shall provide Intuit reasonable assistance in Intuit’s assessment of Intuit’s business continuity requirements and provide, for Intuit’s approval, a set of alternatives for the development of a viable Intuit business continuity program, and the estimated fees associated with each alternative.
 
        (c)    Harland shall immediately provide Intuit with written notice of any service failure relating to this Addendum due to any of the events specified in the second paragraph of Section 22 of the Supply Agreement or any other event beyond Harland’s reasonable control (each a “Force Majeure”) and shall use its best efforts to immediately implement the Business Continuity Plan with regard to such failure.
 
        (d)    In the event of a Force Majeure, Vendor shall not charge Intuit any fees in excess of the fees set forth in this Addendum.
 
        (e)    Whenever a Force Majeure requires that Harland allocate limited resources between or among its customers, Intuit shall receive no less priority in respect to such allocation than any of Harland’s other customers.

19.    RECORDS/AUDIT. Pursuant to Section 40 (d) of the Supply Agreement, Intuit shall have the full right to audit any and all documents, records or other paperwork of Harland’s that they deem necessary or appropriate in order to validate Intuit charges or verify basis for cost savings sharing. This includes, but is not limited to, Harland’s costs from suppliers and materials costs, and will be utilized to determine cost savings and cost sharing information. Harland will maintain accurate records with respect to the

5


 

     information underlying any reports, payments required, and costs under the Supply Agreement and under this Addendum. Intuit may, upon no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Harland, request an audit by an independent Certified Public Accountant mutually agreed to by both parties, of relevant records of Harland’s upon which such reports are based during normal business hours. Harland shall remit payments or credits to Intuit for the full amount of any disclosed shortfalls. The audit rights set forth herein shall continue for two (2) years following the termination of the Supply Agreement for any reason, or for such period as Harland continues to make revenue sharing payments to Intuit, whichever is longer.

21.    This Addendum replaces and supercedes the Term Sheet. Except as specified in this Addendum, the Supply Agreement remains in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Intuit and Harland have executed and entered into this Addendum by their duly authorized representatives.

EXHIBIT E
BASIC SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR CUSTOMER DATA

Definitions

     For the purposes of this Exhibit, the following definitions shall apply.
     
  Personally-Identifiable Information: Information that identifies or can be used to identify, contact, or locate the person to whom such information pertains. It includes, without limitation, the following information:
          
  Secret Information: Information that is used to protect other Personally-Identifiable Information. Generally, Secret Information is not disclosed to outside parties under any circumstances. Secret Information includes customer passwords, private encryption keys, and private signature keys.
 
  Sensitive Information: Any information that could be misused in such a way as to jeopardize the financial or legal position of its owner, or of the person or company described by the information. Sensitive Information includes customer account numbers, Social Security numbers, taxpayer identification numbers, credit card numbers, customer account balances, customer financial information and transactional activity, medical records, and legal records.
 
  Restricted Information: Information that is not Secret or Sensitive, but whose permissible use has been restricted by its owner. Restricted information includes customer names, customer street or e-mail addresses, customer telephone numbers, and records of customer services and other data relating to the products and services offered, received, or purchased by customers of Intuit or the Company.

A.    Controlling Access to Personally-Identifiable Information

        1.    Access to Personally-Identifiable Information stored on Company’s systems must not be granted to members of Company’s staff, subcontractors, or other agents, unless all of the following conditions are met:

         a)    The staff member, subcontractor, or other agent requesting the access can be uniquely identified (e.g., by a unique User ID), with the exception of “root” password access provided by the Company to its core system administration team;
 
         b)    The staff member, subcontractor, or other agent requesting the access has entered a correct password or other authorizing token to indicate that he/she is the authorized user of this account. If passwords are the only method used for authentication, they must satisfy certain minimal standards mutually agreeable to Intuit and Company that make them sufficiently robust to effectively resist both educated guessing and brute-force attacks. It is recommended that passwords be a minimum of 8 characters in length, contain mixed upper- and lower-case characters and non-alphabetic characters, and be changed every 90 days.
 
         c)   In all cases, access permissions must be established in a manner that allows only for the minimum access level(s) required for each staff member, subcontractor, or other agent to perform his or her job function. The ability to read, write, modify or delete Personally-Identifiable Information must be limited to those individuals who are specifically authorized to perform those data maintenance functions.
 
         d)   Whenever Personally-Identifiable Information is modified, the date, time, and requestor must be recorded in a log file.

        2.    Personally-Identifiable Information stored on Company’s systems must be stored behind firewalls with access to such information limited as described in paragraph A.1.
 
        3.    It is recommended that Secret Information never be stored in clear text on Company’s systems. At a minimum, it is recommended that financial services industry-standard encryption techniques be employed to safeguard Secret Information in Company’s systems from retrieval by unauthorized persons. Whenever possible, it is recommended that message digest algorithms such as SHA-1 or MD5 be used to hash and verify the user’s password, and that “salt” be added to the input string prior to encoding to make it unlikely that the same password text chosen by different users will yield identical encodings.
 
        4.    Passwords used by Company’s customers are not required to conform to the password standards described in paragraph A.1.b; however, Company must not provide any of its customers with access to Personally-Identifiable Information other than that which pertains to such customer, except as permitted in writing by the affected person or as otherwise required by law.
 
        5.    Procedures must be in place to modify or revoke access permissions to Personally-Identifiable Information when staff members leave the Company or when their job responsibilities change.
 
        6.    Printed material that contains Personally-Identifiable Information must be stored in secured areas to which access is limited to those staff members who have a business need to access it. It must also be disposed of in a secure manner. Whenever possible, it is recommended that secure disposal alternatives such as on-site shredding prior to recycling or placement in publicly-accessible locked trash bins with subsequent off-site shredding by a licensed contractor be implemented.

B.    Transmitting Personally-Identifiable Information

        1.    Unless restricted by law, or as discussed in paragraph D.1, Company must not electronically transmit Secret or Sensitive Information over publicly-accessible networks without using 128-bit SSL or another mechanism that affords similar or greater security and confidentiality. If legal restrictions limit the use of 128-bit SSL encryption technology, Company must use the strongest encryption technology permitted.

3


 

        2.    Personally-Identifiable Information must never be passed in a URL (e.g., using a Get method) in a manner that potentially exposes the information to third parties and causes such information to appear in log files.

C.    Maintaining a Secure Environment

        1.    To protect the accuracy and integrity of Personally-Identifiable Information, all such data stored in electronic form must be backed up regularly (no less often than weekly), and the backups stored in secure, environmentally-controlled, limited-access facilities.
 
        2.    Company must use commercially-reasonable efforts to install any security-related fixes identified by its hardware or software vendors, if the security threat being addressed by the fix is one that significantly threatens the privacy or integrity of any Personally-Identifiable Information covered by this Agreement. Such upgrades must be made as soon as they can safely be installed and integrated into Company’s existing architecture and systems.
 
        3.    Intuit may, from time to time, advise Company of recent security threats that have come to its attention, and require Company to implement specific modifications to its software, policies, or procedures that may be necessary to counter these threats. Company must implement these modifications within a mutually-agreeable time, or must obtain written permission from Intuit to take some other commercially-reasonable course of action to preserve the privacy and integrity of any Personally-Identifiable Information.
 
        4.    Company must immediately notify the Intuit Security SPOC (see below) if it knows or suspects that Personally-Identifiable Information has been compromised or disclosed to unauthorized persons, or if there has been any meaningful or substantial deviation from the requirements of this Exhibit.
 
        5.    Notwithstanding the minimum standards set forth in this Exhibit, Company must use commercially-reasonable efforts to monitor and periodically incorporate reasonable industry-standard security safeguards.

D.    Electronic Mail

        1.    Company must not send any Secret Information in an e-mail message over publicly-accessible networks unless the e-mail is encrypted using a previously-approved encryption mechanism or is otherwise made secure with an approach that has been mutually agreed upon in advance by Intuit and Company. It is recommended that Company not send any Sensitive or Restricted Information in an e-mail message over publicly-accessible networks unless the e-mail is encrypted or otherwise secured as described above.
 
        2.    Company and its subcontractors and agents must not reveal the Personally-Identifiable Information of one customer to any other customer or other third party, in any e-mail or other communication,, except as permitted in writing by the affected person, as deemed appropriate in light of the interests of the affected person, or as otherwise required by law.

E.    Reviews, Audits, and Remedies

        1.    Upon 14 days’ prior written notice to Company, Intuit (or its agent) may enter Company’s premises and inspect such of Company’s books, records, facilities and computer systems as Intuit and Company shall mutually agree is necessary to ensure that Company complies with the terms and conditions of this Exhibit. Intuit or its agent shall comply with Company’s standard policies and procedures that apply to third party companies that have access to Company’s premises, and Intuit or its agent shall access Company’s premises during Company’s normal business hours.
 
        2.    Notwithstanding any cure period in this Agreement to the contrary, Intuit, at Intuit’s reasonable discretion, may require correction of any demonstrated problem that significantly threatens the security of Personally-Identifiable Information within a shorter period of time. Intuit shall provide written notice of the problem to Company, and Company must immediately take appropriate steps to correct the problem. If Company fails to correct any demonstrated security problem within a commercially-reasonable time, factoring in the work that must be completed to address the problem, and resulting in the material disclosure or threatened disclosure of Personally-Identifiable Information, Intuit may instruct Company to take such interim measures as are necessary to protect Personally-Identifiable Information. If Company fails or refuses to take such interim and/or permanent measures which are necessary to prevent the material disclosure of Personally-Identifiable Information within a commercially reasonable time, Intuit may terminate any and all affected agreements between Intuit and Company for cause.

F.    Compliance with U.S. Laws and Regulations
 
     Company shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
 
G.    Changes to Requirements
 
     Intuit may, in its sole discretion, amend these requirements from time to time, as required by law or otherwise.
 
H.    Contact Information
 
     The primary business contact person for each party under this Agreement shall designate a primary and an alternate single point of contact for security issues for such party (a “Security SPOC”) and provide mail, email, telephone, home telephone, and pager or portable telephone contact information for such persons. Both parties agree that either the primary or alternate Security SPOC will be available at all times (“24/7/365”). Such designation and information must be given in writing to the other party within ten (10) business days after the effective date of the Agreement. Any updates to the same shall be given promptly in writing to the other party.

EXHIBIT G

INTUIT PACKAGE HANDLING REQUIREMENTS

The following Intuit Package Handling Requirements shall apply to Harland, its subsidiaries and third party vendors (hereinafter, “Company”) in connection with one or more related service agreements involving the handling of Intuit mail and packages.

The accurate, timely, and proper handling of incoming and outgoing mail and packages are absolutely essential to each party’s business. To ensure that incoming Intuit mail and packages, including, but not limited to, Intuit Customer orders/returns and Intuit/Company vendor orders (“Intuit Materials”) are properly handled, all accesses to, uses of, and processing of Intuit’s Materials must be consistent with the package handling requirements, related procedures, and guidelines which are attached below as Attachment A. Company and Intuit shall comply with the Intuit Package Handling Requirements (as amended from time to time). Upon notice of an amendment, Company shall comply with such amendments to the Intuit Package Handling Requirements as soon as reasonably possible (not to exceed 30 days) based on the importance of the amendment and the severity of the issues that are addressed by the amendment.

Company shall establish and maintain its own organization-wide information security policies, standards, guidelines and procedures, which shall meet or exceed the requirements set forth in the Intuit Package Handling Requirements.

Company shall promptly conduct investigations of any breaches of such Intuit Package Handling Requirements, and shall take steps to remedy and prevent such breaches. Company shall take such further actions as it deems necessary to ensure the proper handling of the Intuit Materials to which it has possession, access or control.

 


 

Attachment A:
Package Handling Requirements

A. Controlling Access to Intuit Materials

Authorization processes must be employed to control Company’s staff, subcontractors, or other agents’ access to Intuit Materials. These processes must at a minimum identify the staff, subcontractor or other agent and record their entry while on the Company premises, e.g., by the use of a personally identifiable time card or an electronic identification badge.

Procedures must be in place to modify or revoke access permissions to Intuit Materials when staff members leave the Company or when subcontractors, or other agents cease doing business with the Company.

A public records check to ascertain evidence of criminal background, including identity verification, e.g., by verifying social security number and date of birth, must be run on all current and future Company staff, subcontractors or other agents who have access to Intuit materials. To the extent allowed by applicable law, background check results must be taken into account so as to reasonably ensure the security and integrity of Intuit Materials.

The Company currently maintains card access security systems at those locations that would receive and handle Intuit Materials, providing a controlled environment for access to those materials. The current access systems and procedures must satisfy this requirement regarding access to materials, with the exception of the background check requirement.

B. Storing and Transporting Intuit Materials

Reasonable procedures must be employed to limit access to and secure Intuit Materials when in storage. These processes must be documented and submitted to Intuit as part of the Company’s overall Security Plan.

The Company must transport Intuit Materials in a manner that is designed to prevent unauthorized access to those Materials and provide for loss or tamper awareness.

The Company’s current transportation and storage procedures for mail and package processing and delivery must satisfy the above requirements. Intuit must be promptly notified of proposed changes to the Company’s current policies and practices with regard to transportation and storage procedures for Intuit materials. In addition, Company shall ensure that Intuit is promptly notified in the following instances:

        1.    Change in Company vendors or operating methods
 
        2.    Evidence of mail tampering external to Company and its vendors

C. Maintaining a Secure Environment

Access to Company facilities must be controlled, e.g., by electronic systems, security guards, receptionists or closed-circuit cameras at all entrances, visitor controls, and delivery truck/driver controls. The Company’s current card access and visitor control systems must satisfy the above requirements. Intuit must be notified of proposed changes to the Company’s current policies and practices with regard to facility access.

 


 

All incoming supplies of goods and materials that may potentially affect Intuit Materials must be checked for compliance with production orders and shipping manifests and appropriate action taken if these supplies are not compliant.

Intuit may, from time to time, advise Company of recent security threats that have come to its attention, and require Company, at Intuit’s sole expense, to implement specific modifications to its policies or procedures that may be necessary to counter these threats. Company must implement these modifications within a mutually-agreeable time, or must obtain written permission from Intuit to take some other course of action to ensure that the security of Intuit’s materials/packages is preserved.

Notwithstanding the minimum standards set forth in this Agreement, Company must monitor and periodically incorporate reasonable direct mail industry-standard security safeguards.

No scrap, overruns, nor returned Intuit Materials can be destroyed or disposed of without the pre-approval of Intuit. The Company’s current practices for shredding and/or disposal of all scrap, overruns, and returned material are considered satisfactory for this requirement and this agreement serves as pre-approval for the use of these practices for the destruction and disposition of all Intuit materials.

The Company’s current manufacturing processes and procedures are considered sufficient to limit dust resulting from production operations in Intuit Materials.

D. Handling Suspicious mail/packages by Company

Management Actions

1. Process Implementation

a. Company shall ensure that process controls are implemented to ensure that mail is secured when not being handled.

b. Company shall ensure that physical barriers are implemented, including but not limited to, secured or separate space for mail handling, the ability to isolate or shut down HVAC systems in the event of a suspected contamination, and controls to prevent the unauthorized tampering to mail and sorting systems.

c. Company shall ensure that employees are trained to recognize harmful agents, including but not limited to, chemicals, explosives, and inappropriate foreign matter.

d. Company shall ensure appropriate incident response, including but not limited to, a documented process to quickly response to and mitigate the danger, providing escalation and alternate work recovery strategies as appropriate.

2. Preplanning

Parties acknowledge that proper handling of suspicious mail/packages is necessary to the success of each parties’ businesses. Company mail and distribution management, in concert with the site corporate services manager, and corporate security should ensure the following precautions are in place:

 


 

          Ensure all individuals working in the mail and distribution area receive training in the below listed “Precautionary Procedures for Suspicious mail/packages”, as may be amended by Intuit from time to time.
 
          Identify all up stream service providers and how the mail and packages are handled. This would include the location of the postal distribution center, couriers, and delivery companies.
 
          Maintain a secure environment for the mail and distribution center. Access should be limited to those working in the area.
 
          Maintain a clean housekeeping environment. Dust and other by-products of mail handling should be vacuumed on a daily basis.
 
          Ensure containers (mail trays and other) are clean and free of foreign matter prior to use.

3. PRECAUTIONARY PROCEDURES FOR SUSPICIOUS MAIL/PACKAGES

Company shall inform Company employees of the following procedures listed below and use best efforts to require their compliance if a suspicious or unidentified substance is found in mail/packages. There are three classes of incident.

     CLASS 1: Discovery of a suspicious or unidentified substance of unknown origin

     CLASS 2: Release of a suspicious or unknown substance from a shipping container
     CLASS 3: Release of an unknown substance by a person acting in a suspicious or threatening manner

CLASS 1 INCIDENTS

Discovery of a suspicious or unidentified substance of unknown origin

What to do:

IF YOU FIND A SUSPICIOUS OR UNKNOWN SUBSTANCE, DO NOT PANIC. Most substances found in the workplace turn out to be normal, everyday materials that someone has spilled by accident and are not dangerous.

Do not inhale; briefly examine the area to locate the possible source of the substance.

If you cannot identify the substance or its source move away from it and instruct others present to isolate the immediate area.

If the substance is clearly spreading, take action to limit its movement. Close doors and windows to confine it if possible. Turn off any fans or other devices that might cause it to spread. If there is a possibility that it might move into an air vent, turn off the Heating, Ventilation, or Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. Designate the location of the HVAC controls in the building, and the individuals authorized to shut it down. If there is a possible danger to people in other areas of the facility notify them. Have them take action to limit the unknown substance’s spread and move to a safe distance.

NOTIFY INTUIT SECURITY AT 650-944-6911

At a safe distance, describe the substance to your coworkers. If they can identify it, take appropriate action to have the affected area cleaned. Notify anyone nearby that they can return to work if the known substance is not a hazardous material.

If your coworkers cannot identify the substance, instruct them to keep the area isolated. Instruct anyone who may have been exposed to the substance to remain nearby at a safe distance for further guidance. Designate an external meeting area, and not allow individuals to leave the site, or wait in their vehicles.

Prepare a list of all individuals in the facility at the time of the incident. The list should contain name, telephone number, and address.

 


 

Prepare a description of the suspect mail container and contents, if known.

Wait at a safe distance for the emergency response personnel to arrive and follow their instructions.

CLASS 2 INCIDENTS

Release of a suspicious or unknown substance from a container

What to do:

DO NOT PANIC: You are in control and you know what to do.

Examine all containers for suspicious indicators before opening them.

If a suspicious container has not yet been opened, do not open it.

Do not transport the container around the facility or shake it.

Do not merely discard the container.

Isolate the immediate area around the suspicious unopened container. Make sure no one disturbs the container. Keep people at a safe distance. Go to step 13.

If you open a container and find that it contains or releases suspicious material, do not inhale its contents.

Do not move the container or shake it.

Do not merely discard the container.

Do not empty the container or shake it.

Isolate the immediate area around the container. Make sure no one disturbs the container. Keep people at a safe distance.

Place something over the container opening if possible to do so safely. For example, place a large sheet of plastic over the container without touching it. Do not inhale while doing this.

Turn off any fans or other devices that might cause contamination to spread. If there is a possibility that contamination might move into an air vent, turn off the Heating, Ventilation, or Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. Designate the location of the HVAC controls in the building, and the individuals authorized to shut it down. Shut all dock doors.

Notify INTUIT SECURITY AT 650-944-6911 then call your local emergency response agency at 911. Describe the container and its contents. Follow their instructions.

Wash your hands with warm soap and water for one minute.

Do not allow anyone to leave the area who may have touched the container or its contents or who was present in the immediate area when it was opened. Have everyone meet at a designated location. Prepare a list of all individuals that were in the area of the suspect package, including name, telephone number, and address. Do not allow anyone to leave, or to wait in his or her vehicles.

Wait for emergency responders to arrive and follow their instructions.

CLASS 3 INCIDENTS

Release of an unknown substance by a person acting in a suspicious or threatening manner.

What to watch for:

Anybody acting in a suspicious or threatening manner

Anybody throwing, spraying, spreading, or pouring an unidentified substance

Anybody tampering with an air vent, fan, food, or water supply

Anybody carrying an unknown substance with an unknown purpose

What to know:

 


 

Vigilance is a deterrent. If a suspicious individual is confronted before he can act, he will often decide to leave.

The chance that someone may threaten your facility is low, but needs to be considered.

What to do:

Ask any suspicious individual what their purpose is. If they refuse to answer, ask them to remain where they are and have someone notify on-site security or a manager. If the person becomes threatening go to step 2.

Report any threatening individual to on-site security or call police.

Maintain a safe distance from any threatening individual. Warn your coworkers. Make sure that an exit is available.

If the person releases an unknown material, evacuate the area. Sound a fire alarm if convenient to warn others to evacuate the facility.

Notify emergency responders, on-site security, and police if they have not already been called.

Maintain a safe distance from the area affected by the released substance and from the threatening individual. Do not allow anyone to leave the area. Have everyone meet at designated location. Prepare a list of all individuals that were in the area of the suspect package, including name, telephone number, and address. Do not allow anyone to leave, or to wait in his or her vehicles.

If you have been exposed to any released substance, remain nearby for assistance.

Wait for security, police, and emergency responders. Follow their instructions.
