NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation
Intuit Inc. (“Intuit”) has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements. The 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 format.
We have included all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to give a fair presentation of our operating results for the periods shown. Results for the
three and nine monthsquarter endedApril 30,October 31, 2001 do not necessarily indicate the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending July 31,20012002 or any other future period.All financial statements presented are restated to reflect the combined results of Intuit and our Rock Financial Corporation and Title Source, Inc. subsidiaries that were acquired on December 8, 1999 in a transaction that was accounted for as a pooling of interests.These statements and accompanying notes should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31,20002001 included inIntuit'sIntuit’s Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and ExchangeCommission.Commission on October 5, 2001.Use of Estimates
To comply with generally accepted accounting principles, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures made in the accompanying notes.
Our most significant estimatesEstimates arerelated to reservesused for product returns and exchanges, reserves for rebates,andthecollectabilitycollectibility of accountsreceivable.receivable, deferred taxes and other amounts. We also use estimates to determine the remaining economic lives and carrying value of goodwill, purchased intangibles, fixed assets anddeferred taxother long-lived assets. Despite our intention to establish accurate estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from our estimates.Net Revenue
WeFor our shrink-wrapped software products, we recognize revenue upon shipment
of our shrink-wrapped software products, net of returns reserves, based on historical experience,(which is when title passes), provided that collection is probable and we have no significant remaining obligations. We recognize revenue net of returns reserves based on historical experience. In some situations, we receive advance payments from our customers. Revenue associated with these advance payments is deferred until the products are shipped or services are provided. We also reduce revenue by the estimated cost of rebates when products are shipped.We recognize revenue from
Internet productspayroll processing and payroll tax filing serviceswhenas the services are performed, provided we have no other obligations. We generally require our payroll tax customers to remit 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 such 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" based on the nature of the particular product or service. For Internet productsearned. However, interest income generated from our cash andservices that we provide over a period of time, we recognize revenue pro rata based on the contractual time period. However, where we provide or deliver the Internet product or service at one pointcash equivalents balance is included intime, we recognize revenue upon delivery of the product or completion of the service. Intuit also offers several plans under which customers are charged for technical support assistance. We collect fees charged for these plans in advance and we recognize revenue over a period of time (generally one year). We include costs incurred for fee for support plans in cost of goods sold.other income because this interest income does not result from our operating activities.We defer loan origination revenue and the associated commissions and processing costs on loans held for sale until the related loan is sold. We recognize gains and losses on loans at the time we sell them, based upon the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loans sold. We recognize
loan servicing revenue as the related principal is collected. We recognizeinterest income on mortgage loans held for sale as it is earned, and we recognize interest expenses on related borrowings as cost of revenue as we incur them.We also offer several plans under which customers are charged for technical support assistance. For plans where we collect fees in advance, we recognize revenue over the life of the plan, which is generally one year. We include costs incurred for fee-for-support plans in cost of revenue.
-6-
We recognize revenue from other products and services when it is earned based on the nature of the particular product or service. For products and services that we provide over a period of time, we recognize revenue pro rata based on the contractual time period. However, where we provide or deliver the product or service at a specific point in time, we recognize revenue upon delivery of the product or completion of the service.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Costs incurred with the shipping and handling of our shrink-wrapped software products are recorded as cost of products in our results of operations.
Customer Service and Technical Support
Customer service and technical support costs include the costs associated with performing order processing, answering customer inquiries through
websitesWeb sites and other electronic means and providingcustomerfree technical support assistance to customers by telephone. In connection with the sale of certain products,Intuit provideswe provide a limited amount of free technical support-6-7assistance to customers. We do not defer the recognition of any revenue associated with sales of these products, since the cost of providing this free technical support and related customer service is insignificant. The technical support is provided within one year after the associated revenue is recognized and free product enhancements are minimal and infrequent. We accrue the estimated cost of providing this free support upon product shipment.Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
Intuit considersWe consider highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments
are consideredconsist of available-for-sale debt securitiesandthat are carried atamortized cost, which approximatesfair value. Available-for-sale debt securities are classified as current assets based upon our intent and ability to use any and all of these securities as necessary to satisfy the significant short-term liquidity requirements that may arise from the highly seasonal and cyclical nature of ourbusiness. Based onbusinesses. Because of our significant business seasonality, cash flow requirementswithin quartersmay fluctuate dramatically from quarter to quarter and require us to use a significant amount of the short-term investments held as available-for-saledebtsecurities.The following schedule summarizes the estimated fair value of ourSee Note 2 for more information about cash and cash equivalents and short-terminvestments:

Ourmarketable securitiesother long-term investments arequoted on the Nasdaq National Market. All of our marketable securities are stocks of high technology companies that have been extremely volatile. The market prices of a number of these companies' stocks have declined substantially. Declines in the market prices of stocks we hold could continue. These declines have resulted, and could continue to result, in a material reduction in the carrying value of these assets and a negative impact on our operating results. For example, if our available-for-sale securities experience further declines in fair value that is considered other than temporary, we will record the additional loss in the period when the subsequent impairment becomes apparent. During the nine months ended April 30, 2001, we recorded a loss of $40.2 million to recognize an other than temporary decline in the value of our S1 sharesstated at cost. See Note 3 forthe difference between our original cost of $51.50 per share and $10.06 per share, the fair value as of October 31, 2000 the date we made the impairment determination. -8-9 During the nine months ended April 30, 2001, we sold 85,000 shares of Checkfree, 351,865 shares of Homestore.com, and 99,902 shares of 724 Solutions. In connection with these sales we recognized realized gains of $4.0 million, $ 11.1 million, and $0.1 million, respectively. In addition, we sold 9,715 shares of VeriSign, 1,197,327 shares of Quotesmith.com and 75,000 shares of Excite@Home and recognized aggregate realized losses of $5.1 million. Total net gains on sales of marketable securities were $10.1 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2001. This gain was offset by recognized losses of $42.2 million to reflect a decline in valuations of our trading securities and S1 options, and a loss of $55.2 million for other than temporary declines in the value ofmore information about our marketable securities and other investments.This resulted in combined net losses on marketable securities and other investments of $87.3 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2001.Goodwill,
andPurchased Intangible Assets, and Other Long-lived AssetsWe record goodwill when the purchase price
exceeds the book valueof net tangible and intangible assetsacquired. Goodwill is amortizedwe acquire exceeds their fair value. We amortize goodwill on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 5 years.TheWe generally amortize the cost of identified intangiblesis generally amortizedon a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 1 to 15 years.We regularly perform reviews to determine if the carrying values of our long-lived assets are impaired. The reviews look for
the existence offacts or circumstances, either internal or external,whichthat indicate that the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered.During the third quarter, events and circumstances indicated possible impairment of our long-lived assets consisting principally of acquired intangible assets and goodwill. These indicators included deterioration in the business climate for web-based companies and recent changes in our fiscal 2002 operating forecasts.We
measured themeasure impairment loss related to long-lived assets based on the amount by which the carrying amount of such assetsexceededexceeds their fair values. Our measurement of fair valuewasis generally based on an analysis ofthefuture discounted cashflows at the enterprise level.flows. In performing this analysis, weuseduse the best information available in the circumstances, including reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections. The discounted cash flow analysisconsideredconsiders the likelihood of possible outcomes andwasis based on our best estimate of projected future cashflows, including terminal value cash flows expected to result from the disposition of the assets at the end of their useful lives. The anticipated proceeds from the pending disposition of a portion of Venture Finance Software Corp. ("VFSC"), our Quicken Bill Manager business, assisted management in the determination of the fair value of the assets associated with VFSC as of April 30, 2001. Based on our analysis we recorded a charge of $51 million and $26 million to write down the goodwill associated with VFSC and SecureTax, respectively.flows. If necessary, wewillperform 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. If market values for the assetsarewere not available, we would calculate the fair valuewould be calculatedusing the present value of estimated expected future discounted cash flows. The cash flow calculations, including the discount rate, would be based onmanagement'smanagement’s best estimates, using appropriate assumptions and projections at the time. In June 2001, FASB issued FAS 142, “Goodwill andpurchased intangible assets consistedOther Intangible Assets.” In October-7-
2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”We intend to implement both FAS 142 and FAS 144 beginning in the

See Note 1 for more information.Concentration of Credit Risk
Intuit operates 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 balances of,marketable securities and private equityinvestments and short-term investments, as well as risks related to the collectability of our trade accounts receivable. At April 30, 2001, we held approximately $117.5 million in marketable securities, as described in "Marketable Securities," above. Fluctuations in the market value of our shares in Excite@Home, VeriSign and 724 Solutions result in recognized gains and losses in our statement of operations on an ongoing basis, since these investments are treated as trading securities. If there were an other than temporary impairment in any marketable securities held as available-for-sale, we would report this decline in our statement of operations.investments. See"Marketable Securities," above inNote13 for a discussion of risks associated withour marketable securities. At April 30, 2001, we held approximately $19.8 million in private equity investments, net of reserves for potential declines in value that are other than temporary.these assets. Our remaining investment portfolio is diversified and consists primarily of short-term investment-grade securities.We sell a significant portion of our products through third-party resellers and distributors and, as a result, maintain one individually significant receivable balance with a major distributor. If the financial condition or operations of this distributor deteriorates substantially, our operating results could be adversely affected. We also face risks related to the collectibility of our trade accounts receivable. To appropriately manage
the creditthis risk,associated with accounts receivable, Intuit performswe perform ongoing evaluations of customer credit. Generally,no collateral is required.we do not require collateral. We maintain reserves for estimated credit losses and these losses have historically been within our expectations.At April 30, 2001,However, since wehad one distributor, that accounted for approximately 25%cannot predict future changes in the financial stability of ouraccounts receivable balance.customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will continue to be adequate.In the normal course of our mortgage business, we enter into loan commitments to extend credit in order to meet the financing needs of our customers. Loan commitments are agreements to lend to a customer as long as all conditions specified in the contract are met. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the customer to pay a fee. We evaluate each
customer'scustomer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.The amount of collateral we obtain is based on our credit evaluation of the customer.Loan commitments subject us to market risks and credit risks. Market risk
occurs ifis the risk that interest rates may rise after a loan commitment is made. To offset this risk on conventional mortgage loans and government-insured loans that are in process, we utilize mandatory forward salecommitments and purchase puts and calls on U.S. Treasury securities.commitments. AtApril 30,October 31, 2001, we had$214.3$259.9 million in mandatory forward sale commitments for future delivery ofFNMAmortgages to Federal National Mortgage Association andFHLMC securities.Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Loan commitments, which are not reflected on the balance sheet, also involve credit risk relating to thecustomer, which is not reflected on the balance sheet.customer. We use the same credit policies for making credit commitments as we do for the underlying loan product.Loan commitments to extend credit at July 31, 2000 and April 30, 2001 were as follows:See Note 5 for more information on loan commitments.

InOn June
1998,29, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board("FASB"(“FASB”) issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141), “Business Combinations,” and No. 142 (SFAS 142), “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”SFAS 141 supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, “Business Combinations,” and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations, thus requiring that all business combinations be accounted for using the purchase method. The requirements of SFAS 141 apply to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
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 at least annually for impairment. SFAS 142 applies to all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. For business combinations completed before July 1, 2001, we will adopt SFAS 142 effective August 1, 2002. We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 142 on our financial position and statement of operations. We expect the adoption of SFAS 142 to reduce our amortization of goodwill and intangible expense significantly, commencing with the first quarter of fiscal 2003. However, it is possible that in the future, we would incur less frequent, but larger, impairment charges related to the goodwill already recorded, as well as goodwill arising out of future acquisitions as we continue to expand our business.
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 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 supersedes FASB Statement 121,“Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
-8-
to Be Disposed Of,”and portions of APB Opinion 30,“Reporting the Results of Operations.”SFAS 144 provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria for classifying an asset as held-for-sale. Classification as held-for-sale is an important distinction since such 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 incurred, rather than as of the measurement date as presently required. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 144 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of all our foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue, costs and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the year. We report translation gains and losses as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statement of operations and were immaterial in all periods presented.

3. Marketable Securities and Other Investments We designated our investments in At Home Corporation (which does business as Excite@Home) and 724 Solutions as trading securities and fluctuations in the market value of these shares have been reported in the consolidated statement of operations. We sold all of the remaining shares of these securities during the quarter. The cost basis reflects adjustments for other than temporary impairments in value as well as sales of securities. We held the following available-for-sale securities at July 31, 2001 and October 31, 2001:
Cost Gross Unrealized Estimated (In thousands) Basis Gains Losses Fair Value July 31, 2001Checkfree Corporation common stock $ 35,621 $ 37,215 $ — $ 72,836 S1 Corporation common stock 7,741 2,714 — 10,455 $ 43,362 $ 39,929 $ — $ 83,291 October 31, 2001Checkfree Corporation common stock $ 35,621 $ — $ (1,618 ) $ 34,003 S1 Corporation common stock 7,238 243 — 7,481 $ 42,859 $ 243 $ (1,618 ) $ 41,484 Our marketable securities, which are quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, are stocks of high technology companies whose market prices have been extremely volatile and have declined substantially during the past two years. These declines have resulted, and could continue to result, in a material reduction in the carrying value of these assets. This has a negative impact on our operating results. If our available-for-sale securities experience further declines in fair value that are considered other than temporary, we will reflect the additional loss in our consolidated statement of operations in the period when the subsequent impairment becomes apparent.
The fair values of our long-term investments have also declined substantially since our initial investments due to the volatility and economic downturn in the high technology industry.
During the quarter ended October 31, 2001, we sold 50,000 shares of S1 Corporation and recognized realized gains of $0.2 million. This gain was offset by a realized loss of $1.9 million recorded in connection with the sale of our options to purchase additional shares of S1. In addition, we sold 37,906 shares of 724 Solutions and 1,533,504 shares of Excite@Home and recognized aggregate realized losses of $0.1 million during the quarter ended October 31, 2001. We recorded a loss of $3.3 million for other-than-temporary declines in the value of our other investments and recognized losses of $1.5 million for our trading securities and $5.7 million for our other long-term investments to reflect the declines in valuation. This resulted in combined net losses on marketable securities and other investments of $12.3 million for the quarter ended October 31, 2001.
During fiscal 2001, we adopted FAS 133,
"Accounting“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"” which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. It requires us to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet andmeasurerecord those instruments at fair value.It further provides criteria for designating derivative instrumentsIn May 1999, we completed a $50 million investment (970,813 shares) in Security First Technologies, now known as S1 Corporation (“S1”). In connection with this agreement, we received options to purchase 4.8 million additional shares of S1 common stock, atfair value, cash flow, or foreign currency hedges, and establishes accounting standards for reporting changes in the fair valuea per-share purchase price ofthe derivative instruments. Upon the date of adoption,$51.50. These options contained a net-exercise feature. In August1,2000, we recorded the cumulative effect of the change in accounting for derivatives for our4.64.8 million S1 options held inlong termlong-term investments. This resulted in a one-time cumulative effect of $14.3 million, net of income taxes totaling $9.5million, as of August 1, 2000. The one-time cumulative effect created a decrease of $0.07 per share on the basic and diluted net loss per share for the nine month period ended April 30, 2001.million. FAS 133 requires the derivatives to be carried at fair value, so subsequent fluctuations in the fair value of these optionswill bewere included in our netincome. Forloss. During thethree and nine months ended April 30,first quarter of fiscal 2001 these fluctuations resulted in a loss of$3.4 million and $13.4$7.6 million net of income taxes, which decreased the basic and diluted net loss per share for the period by $0.04 per share. During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we sold these options and recorded a realized loss of $1.9 million.-10-

SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements for all public registrants. We are required to adopt SAB 101 no later than our fourth quarter of 2001. The adoption of SAB 101 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. 2. PER SHARE DATA Basic income per share is computedusing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.DilutedWe compute diluted income or loss per shareis computedusing the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of the shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options under the treasury stock method. In loss periods, basic and dilutive loss per share is identical since the impact of common equivalent shares is anti-dilutive.3. COMPREHENSIVE NET INCOME StatementWe excluded options to purchase 15.9 million shares ofFinancial Accounting No.common stock in our diluted per-share computation for the quarter ended October 31, 2001 and options to purchase 12.5 million shares of common stock in the computation for the quarter ended October 31, 2000, since we experienced losses in those quarters.-11-

ACQUISITIONS On August 30, 2000, we purchased all of the outstanding securities of Venture Finance Software Corp. ("VFSC") that were not already held by Intuit (approximately 51%) for approximately $118 million in cash (including approximately $4.5 million in option exercise and tax payments in connection with VFSC options exercised immediately prior to the purchase). We accounted for the acquisition of VFSC as a purchase for accounting purposes and allocated approximately $113 million to identified intangible assets and goodwill. These assets were determined to be impaired by $51 million as of April 30, 2001. The remaining balance of $52.8 million, net of accumulated depreciation year to date, is being amortized over approximately three years. -11-12 On December 20, 2000, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of EmployeeMatters, Inc., in exchange for approximately $41.9 million in Intuit stock, the elimination of approximately $8.0 million in bridge loans we extended to EmployeeMatters prior to the closing, and the assumption of approximately $3.4 million of liabilities. We accounted for the acquisition of EmployeeMatters as a purchase for accounting purposes and allocated approximately $53.3 million to identified intangible assets and goodwill. These assets are being amortized over periods of three to five years. On April 17, 2001, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Tax and Accounting Software Corporation ("TAASC"), for $63.0 million in cash and approximately $7.8 million in accrued costs. We accounted for the acquisition of TAASC as a purchase for accounting purposes and allocated approximately $69.8 million to identified intangible assets and goodwill.

As a result of the divestiture,in May 2001, we recorded apre-tax gain$27 million long-term asset related to future consideration from the purchasing company, which was recorded as “other assets” on the balance sheet. We are entitled to receive from the purchaser either (i) shares of$1.6its common stock in February 2002, (ii) cash payments of a minimum of $37 million paid in four equal annual installments of a minimum of $9.3 million per year, beginning in February 2002, or (iii) a combination of shares anda related tax provisioncash, beginning in February 2002. As discussed in Note 1, we regularly perform reviews to determine if the carrying values of$0.6 million inour long-lived assets are impaired.

12. Notes Payable and Commitments In March 2001, our Japanese subsidiary, Intuit KK, refinanced its one-year loan agreement with a Japanese bank for approximately
$30.3$30.6 million. The loan is denominated in Japaneseyen and is therefore subject to foreign currency fluctuations when translated to U.S. dollars for reporting purposes.yen. The interest rate is variable based on the Tokyo inter-bank offered rate or the short-term prime rate offered in Japan. AtApril 30,October 31, 2001, the rate was approximately0.72%0.56%. The fair value of the loan approximates cost as the interest rate on the borrowings is adjusted periodically to reflect market rates (which are currently significantly lower in Japan than in the United States). We are obligated to pay interest only on the loan through March 2002.10. INCOME TAXES-14-
13. Income Taxes Intuit computes the provision (benefit) for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to recurring operations and other taxable items. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily because of tax credits, tax exempt interest income, state taxes,
non deductible acquisition costsnon-deductible impairment charges and goodwill amortization and certain foreign losses.11. LITIGATION
14. Stockholders’ Equity Stock Repurchase Program
In May 2001, Intuit’s Board of Directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $500 million of common stock from time to time in the open market over a three-year period. 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. As of October 31, 2001, we had repurchased approximately 738,500 shares of our common stock under this program (which became treasury shares) for an aggregate cost of approximately $29.3 million. From the inception of the stock repurchase program through October 31, 2001 we reissued 169,742 shares of treasury stock in connection with exercises of employee stock options, which were valued at $8.5 million (using Intuit’s average purchase price per share).
Repurchases through October 31, 2001 have had no significant impact upon our income or loss per share. Intuit intends to continue using its cash and cash equivalents to fund these repurchases.
15. 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 of California, Eastern Division. Following
Intuit'sIntuit’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 allege 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 atIntuit'sIntuit’s Quicken.comwebsite.Web site. The complaints seek injunctive relief, orders to disgorge profits related to the alleged acts, and statutory and other damages. Intuit believes these lawsuits are without merit and intends to defend the litigation vigorously.Intuit is subject to other 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.

OVERVIEW Intuit's10-K. We encourage you to read these sections carefully.Overview
Intuit’s mission is to revolutionize how people manage their financial lives, and how small businesses and accounting professionals manage their businesses. We
strive to offer innovative products and services that will revolutionize how individuals and small businesses manage their activities. We offer a varietyare the leading provider of small business accounting, tax preparation and personal finance software products andrelatedWeb-based services that simplify complex financial tasks for consumers, small businesses and accounting professionals. Our principal products and servicesthatincludeQuicken(R)Quicken®,QuickBooks(R)QuickBooks®, QuickenTurboTax(R)TurboTax®,ProSeries(R) and Lacerte(R) desktop software products, as well as an array of Internet-based products and services, including QuickBooks Deluxe Payroll service, QuickBase(R)ProSeries®,Quicken TurboTax for the Web, Quicken.com(SM)Lacerte® and QuickenLoans.(SM)LoansSM.Our businesses are highly seasonal – particularly our tax business,
is highly seasonal.but also small business and personal finance to a lesser extent. Sales of tax products are heavily concentrated in the period from November throughMarch.April. Sales of personal finance and small businessand consumer financeproducts are typically strongest during the calendar year-end holiday buying season and the beginning of the calendar year and thereforeourmajor product launches for these products usually occur in the fall or early winter to take advantage of these customer buying patterns. These seasonal patterns mean that our total net revenue is usually highest duringtheour second and third fiscal quarters. We typically report a loss in our first and fourth quartersending January 31when revenue from our tax businesses andApril 30. We experience lower revenues for the quarters ending July 31 and October 31, while ourother seasonal businesses is minimal, but operating expenses to developand supportnew products and services continue at relatively consistentlevels during these periods. This can result in significant operating losses in the July 31 and October 31 quarters.levels. Operating results can also fluctuate for other reasons such as changes in product release dates, non-recurring events such as acquisitions, dispositions, gains and losses from marketable securities, and product price cuts in quartersthat havewith relatively high fixed expenses.Acquisitions and dispositions in particular can have a significant impact on the comparability-16-
Results of
both our quarterly and annual results, and acquisition-related expenses continue to have a negative impact on our earnings. While desktop software and related products and services provide a majority of our revenue, our Internet-based revenue is continuing to grow. We use the term Internet-based revenue to include revenue from both Internet-enabled products and services as well as revenue generated by electronic ordering and/or delivery of traditional desktop software products and financial supplies. Since Internet-based revenues cut across all of our business divisions, we do not report results of our Internet-based revenues separately in our financial statements. Instead, each of our business divisions reports Internet-based revenues that are specific to its operations and are included in its results. -16-17 We believe our internal emerging businesses will provide an opportunity to increase revenue in fiscal 2001 and beyond. We have made significant progress in several of these businesses in the past. During fiscal 2000, our web-based tax preparation and electronic filing services achieved profitability. During both the second and third quarter of fiscal 2001, the profitability of our Quicken Loans and payroll businesses improved significantly from the prior year. During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, we introduced QuickBooks for the Web, which provides basic accounting functionality on the web, and QuickBase, a web-based tool that lets customers create, manage and share data from a browser. In February 2001, we announced the Intuit Developer Network, a program that gives software developers access to application programming interfaces (APIs) for various Intuit small business products, so that they can develop software applications that will be available to Intuit's small business customers. Despite this progress, investors should be aware that most of our emerging businesses are still in their initial stages and are not yet generating either profits or significant revenue. We anticipate increased spending in an effort to capitalize on new business opportunities. Year over year, as of April 30, 2001 we have doubled our investments in our internally developed emerging businesses. We expect to continue increasing our investment in emerging businesses during the remainder of fiscal 2001. See "Risks That Could Affect Future Results." RESULTS OF OPERATIONSOperationsThe following
tables set forth data from our consolidated statements of operations for the quarter and year-to-date ended April 30, 2000 and 2001. Results for all periods include activity for Rock Financial Corporation and Title Source, Inc. (collectively, "Rock"), which were acquired in December 1999. As the acquisition of Rock was accounted for as a pooling of interests, all prior periods have been restated to reflect the combined results of Rock and Intuit.

Small Business Division revenue is derived primarily from QuickBooks desktop products, payroll products and services, financial supplies
payroll services,products, and the QuickBooks SupportNetwork ("QBSN"), and QuickBooks Internet Gateway services ("QBIG"). RevenueNetwork.Overall, revenue for the
Small Business Division increased by 14% and 16% for quarter and year to date ended April 30, 2001 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Our QuickBooks business (including QuickBooks desktop products, QBSN and QBIG) experienced revenue growth of 5% and 9%division was up 10% for the quarterand year to dateendedApril 30,October 31, 2001 compared to the same perioda year ago. This growth was primarily attributablein the prior year. Payroll revenue grew 43%, due toincreased QBIG revenuehigher unit sales, as well as higher average selling prices resulting from price increases for all three of our payroll offerings. Full year revenue growth for payroll is expected to be slower than the first quarter year-over-year growth. Revenue for our QuickBooksdesktop products.Support Network and our financial supplies business also increased in the quarter ended October 31, 2001 compared to the same period in the prior year.These
factorsincreases were partially offset by12% and 18% declinesa 15% decline in QuickBooks revenue. The decline was primarily the result of lower unit salesfor our QuickBooks desktop products forcompared to the first quarterand year to date ended April 30, 2001. These results primarily reflectof fiscal 2001, as the overall economic environment resulted in ayear-over-year decline in the rate at which existing QuickBooks customers upgraded to a newer QuickBooks product,lower new customer acquisition rate. This was partially offset by increased average selling prices, as well aslower acquisition rate of new users compared to the prior year. Year 2000 concerns skewed both the normal seasonal patterns and traditional annual upgrade patternsa slight increase infiscal 2000. Almost 50 percent of our customers upgraded last year due to Year 2000 concerns. QuickBooks revenue results also reflect slower economic growth in the U.S. and other major markets for our QuickBooks products, which has resulted in slower new customer acquisition. Payroll services experienced revenue growth of 56% and 54% for the quarter and year to date, compared to the same periods a year ago. Significant price increases contributed to this growth for both our Basic Payroll Service and our -17-18 online Deluxe Payroll Service. Both services also experienced solid growth in their customer base. While we believe our payroll business, and the Deluxe Payroll Service in particular, will provide us with a significant opportunity to generate recurring revenue in the future, we face a number of ongoing challenges and risks, including operational issues in activating payrollupgrades by current customers.See "Risks That Could Affect Future Results."Tax
DivisionDivision.Tax Division revenue is derived primarily from Quicken TurboTax federal and state consumer desktop tax preparation
software,products, electronic tax filing services, Quicken TurboTax for the Web online tax preparation services and ProSeries and Lacerte professional tax preparation products.Due to the seasonal nature of our tax business, the first fiscal quarter typically generates only nominal revenue from tax products and
electronic tax filing services.services compared to the second and third quarters of the fiscal year. Overall, Tax Division revenue for the quarterand year to date increasedended October 31, 2001 decreased by38% and 20%, respectively18% compared to the sameperiodsperiod lastyear. The increase in revenue was due to a combinationyear, but we do not believe this is indicative ofhigher average selling prices to reflect product enhancements (such as the Automated Tax Return feature) and increased unit sales ofourdesktop and web-based tax preparation products. Our web-based preparation and electronic filing services experienced strong growth during the current tax season. Year to date through April 30, 2001, web tax preparation revenue grew 130% from the prior year, driven by price increases and a 73% increase in federal tax unit volume. We experienced an increase in the number of customers who take advantage of our free electronic tax preparation and filing through Quicken Tax Freedom Project, which accounted for approximately 50% of total Quicken TurboTax for the Web federal units. Our professional tax products experienced revenue growth of 17% and 10% for the quarter and year to date, respectively compared to the same periods a year ago. This growth in revenue was the result of higher average selling prices of our ProSeries and Lacerte unlimited-use products, as well as pay-per return unit growth. Although we are encouraged by the year to date results for our tax products, revenues for the full tax season are still subject to consumer product returns from our retail distribution channels.

Advertising revenue continued to decline, reflecting the industry trend of reduced advertising spending by purchasers of Internet advertising. We experienced continued growth in our online transaction business, which partially offset these declines.Quicken Loans Division.
Quicken Loans Division revenue comes primarily from gains on the sale of loans and post-closing servicing arrangements in bulk to participating financial institutions, and from loan fees we receive for originating loans.
MortgageRevenue for the Quicken Loans Division increased by 136% for the quarter ended October 31, 2001 compared to the same quarter a year ago. The growth was primarily due to two factors. First, the volume of loans sold increased significantly, reflecting increased consumer demand to refinance and originate mortgage loans in light of declining interest rates. Second, our average revenue
growth is primarily attributable to process efficienciesper loan increased, reflecting both higher average gains on sales of loans andinfrastructure improvements that we have made that allow us to capitalize onhigher average loan fees as themortgage rate environment. While weconsumer demand for loans increased.

We face continuing challenges, including mortgage rate fluctuations. See "Risks That Could Affect Future Results." For the quarter our Quicken product line revenue was roughly flat compared to the same period a year ago. Year to date our Quicken products experienced a decline in revenues of 12%, compared to the prior year. Our year to date comparative results were negatively impacted by strong consumer demand during the prior year periods as a result of a significant number of customers upgrading due to Year 2000 concerns. In addition, Quicken.com advertising and sponsorship revenue declined due to reduced advertising spending by potential purchasers of Internet advertising.

This decease was partially attributable to a year-over-year decrease in revenue forthe quarter is primarily due to relatively higher revenue in the second quarter compared to the third quarter because of Canada's early launch of theCanada’s localized version of QuickBooks2001. In addition, yearreflecting lower unit sales compared todate we experienced a 68% year-over-year decline in QuickBooks retailthe prior quarter, as well as declining Quicken sales in Canada. These declines were partially offset by increased revenue from Japan forthe quarter due to prior year promotion activities that were discontinuedour Yayoi small business accounting software, as well as increased revenue generated from maintenance contracts infiscal 2001. The year-to date increase in revenues can be attributed to overall growth in Canada's professional tax revenue as a result of an acquisition we made earlier in the current fiscal year, and an increase in Europe revenue due to an earlier release of QuickBooks compared to last year. Partially offsetting the increases, we experienced an adverse foreign exchange rate impact year to date.Japan.

This increase was attributable in part to changes in our third-party manufacturing and distribution relationships. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, our primary third-party manufacturing contract reflected a 100% variable cost model. We now have a fixed and variable cost model, with the fixed costs spread equally among our four fiscal quarters. Because of our seasonally low revenue in the first quarter, the fixed costs this year resulted in an increase in cost of products as a percentage of product revenue compared to last year. However, we expect that this new cost model will result in lower cost of products as a percentage of product revenue for the full fiscal year and for the longer term. The increase this year also reflected incremental costs to implement a new third-party retail distribution relationship for our shrink-wrap software products.
Cost of services as a percentage of service revenue decreased to 44% for the quarter ended October 31, 2001, compared to 65% for the same period in the prior year. This improvement was driven primarily by our Quicken Loans Division, which experienced a significantly lower average cost per loan. The decline in average cost per loan reflected greater operational efficiencies, as well as a significant increase in total loan revenue being spread over a fixed cost base that increased only slightly. Our payroll business, which experienced revenue growth over a relatively fixed cost base, also contributed to this decrease.

In connection with these acquisitions, and with the assistance of third party appraisers, we determined the value of in-process projects under development for which technological feasibility had not been established. The value of the projects was determined by estimating the costs to develop the in-process technology into commercially feasible products, estimating the net cash flows we believed would result from the products and discounting these net cash flows back to their present value. -20-21 Acquisition Related Costs.

These indicators included deterioration in the business climate for web-based companies and recent changes in our fiscal 2002 operating forecasts. We measured the impairment loss related to long-lived assets based on the amount by which the carrying amount of such assets exceeded their fair values. Our measurement of fair value was based on an analysis of the future discounted cash flows at the enterprise level. In performing this analysis, we used the best information available in the circumstances including reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections. The discounted cash flow analysis considered the likelihood of possible outcomes and was based on our best estimate of projected future cash flows, including terminal value cash flows expected to result from the disposition of the assets at the end of their useful lives. The anticipated proceeds from the pending disposition of a portion of Venture Finance Software Corp. ("VFSC"), our Quicken Bill Manager business assisted management in the determination of the fair value of the assetsintangibles associated withVFSC asour acquisitions of EmployeeMatters in December 2000 and TAASC in April30,of 2001.Based on our analysis we recorded an impairment charge of $51 million and $26 million associated with VFSC and SecureTax, respectively.Amortization expense related to completed acquisitions will continue to have a negative impact on our operating results in future periods.Assuming we do not experience any further impairment of value of the intangible assets that would require us to accelerate amortization, under the current accounting guidance, amortization will be approximately $185.6 million, $180.5 million, $156.5 million and $75.9 million for the years ending July 31, 2001 through 2004, respectively.

We recorded pre-tax net gains from marketable securities and other investments of $579.2 million in fiscal 1999 and $481.1 million in fiscal 2000 and pre-tax net losses of $98.1 million in fiscal 2001 and $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Any additional significant long-term declines in value of these securities could reduce our net income in future periods.
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.
On February 14, 2001, theThe FASBissued a limited revision of its Exposure Draft, Business Combinations and Intangible Assets that establishesrecently adopted a new standard for accounting for goodwill acquired in a business combination. Itwould continuecontinues to require recognition of goodwill as an asset butwoulddoes not permit amortization of goodwill ascurrentlypreviously required. Under theproposednew statement, goodwillwould beis separately tested for impairment using a fair-value-based approach when an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment.Any required goodwill impairment charges would be presented as a separate line item within the operating section of the income statement.The shift from an amortization approach to an impairment approachwouldapplies to all acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001. Starting with our adoption of the new standard, which we expect will be in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, it will also apply to previously recordedgoodwill as well as goodwill arising from acquisitions completed after the application ofgoodwill. When we adopt the newstandard. If thestandard,is adopted as described above,our goodwill amortization chargeswouldwill cease. However, it is possible that in the future, we would incur less frequent, but larger, impairment charges related to the goodwill already recorded, as well as goodwill arising out of future acquisitions as we continue to expand our business.Gains and losses related to marketable securities can cause significant fluctuation in our net income. Our investment activities have had a significant impact on our net income. We recorded pre-tax net gains from marketable securities and other investments of $579.2 million in fiscal 1999 and $481.1 million in fiscal 2000 and a pre-tax net loss of $87.3 for the nine months ended April 30, 2001. See Note 1 of the financial statements. Fiscal 2000 and 2001 decreases in the market prices of our trading securities have resulted in significant reductions in our pre-tax income. Future price fluctuations in trading securities, and any significant long-term declines in value of other securities, could reduce our net income in future periods.A general decline in economic conditions could lead to reduced demand for our products and services.The recent downturn in general economic conditions has led to reduced demand for a variety of goods and services, including many technology products, and we believe the economic decline
has beenwas partially responsible for slower than expected growth in our Small BusinessDivision.Division since the beginning of fiscal 2001. If conditions continue to decline, or fail to improve, in geographic areas that are significant to us, such as the United States, Canada and Japan, we could see a significant decrease in the overall demand for our products and services that could harm our operating results.We faceIt is unlikely that the revenue and profit growth rates experienced by our Quicken Loans Division during fiscal 2001 and the first quarter of fiscal 2002 will be sustainable long-term, either on a year-over-year basis or on a sequential quarter basis.Mortgage rate increases, the impact of the economic climate on the housing market, business operation risks
relating to customer privacyandsecurityother factors could result in significantly lower revenue andincreasing regulation, which could hinder theprofit growthoffor ourbusinesses - particularlymortgage business. Increases in mortgage interest rates and other interest rates adversely affected ourInternet-based 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. For example,mortgage business during fiscal 2000,andcontributing to a significant revenue decline from fiscal 1999 to fiscal 2000. Conversely, declines in mortgage interest rates during fiscal 2001there have been press articles criticizingand the first quarter of fiscal 2002 had a positive impact on revenue. If mortgage rates rise again, this could negatively impact the volume of applications and closed loans, particularly ourprivacy and security practicesmost mortgage-rate sensitive products such asthey relateconventional refinancing loans. Fluctuations in non-mortgage rates also create risks with respect to theconnectivityloans on our balance sheet and impact our cost of funds to provide loans. In addition, ourdesktop softwareability toour web sites. We have faced lawsuitssuccessfully streamline the online application, approval, andnegative press alleging that we improperly shared information about customers with third party "ad servers" for our web sites. A major breach of customer privacy or security by Intuit, or even by another company, could have serious consequences for our businesses - particularly our Internet businesses - including reduced customer interest and/or additional regulation by federal or state agencies. For example, if a "hacker" were able to overcome the security precautions we take to protect our customers' consumer tax preparation information, it couldclosing process will have amaterial negativesignificant impact on ouroperating resultsability to attract customers to our mortgage service, and on our ability to continue increasing the percentage of our mortgage revenue generated through the online channel compared to branch offices. We must also maintain relationships withour customers. In addition, mandatory privacycertain banks andsecurity standards and protocols are still being developed by government agencies, andother third parties who wemay incur significant expenses to comply with any requirements that are ultimately adopted. For example, under the Gramm Leach Bliley Act recently adopted by the federal government, by July 1, 2001 Intuit will be requiredrely on to providewritten noticeaccess to capital, and later, purchase and service the loans. If we are unable to maintain key relationships, or if the terms ofits privacy practiceskey relationships change tomany of its customers. We must give customers an opportunitybe less favorable tostate their preferences regarding Intuit's use of their non-public personal information, and we must honor those preferences. If Internet use does not grow as a result of privacy or security concerns, increasing regulation or for other reasons, the growth of our Internet-based businesses would be hindered. We face competitive pressures in all of our businesses, which canIntuit, it could have a negative impact on our mortgage business and on Intuit’s financial results.-22-
If we are unable to capitalize on new sources of revenue
profitability and market position. There are formidable current and potential competitors infor our QuickBooks business, our Small Business Division will not be able to achieve sustained growth.Sales of our QuickBooks desktop products since theprivate sector, and we also face potential competition from publicly-funded government entities seeking to competitively enter private markets in the United States for consumer electronic financial services. Accordingly, we expect competition to remain intense during the restbeginning of fiscal2001. -24-252001 have been lower than expected, both to existing customers as well new customers. We cannot rely solely on this source of revenue to provide sustainable future growth for our Small Business Division. We must generate significant revenue from broader markets and customer segments as well as from new products and services — including QuickBooks Premier: Accountant Edition designed for accountants, a new version of QuickBooks targeted at larger and more complex small businesses, and other recently announced new small business products.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"“hold” times when our staffing is inadequate to handle higher than anticipated call volume, and a large number of inquiries from customers checking on the status of product orders when the timing of shipments fails to meet customer expectations. This 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 and better order fulfillment processes), and on more accurately anticipating demand for customer service and technical support.We rely on two third party vendors to handle all outsourced aspects of our primary retail desktop software product launches.For manufacturing and distributing our primary retail products at the time of product launches, we have an exclusive manufacturing relationship with Modus Media, and an exclusive distribution arrangement with Ingram Micro Logistics. While we believe that relying on only two outsourcers for our primary retail product launches improves the efficiency and reliability of our product launches, reliance on any vendor for a significant aspect of our business can have severe negative consequences if the vendor fails to perform for any reason.
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. For example, during fiscal 2000 and fiscal 2001, there were press articles criticizing our privacy and security practices as they relate to the connectivity of our desktop software to our Web sites. We have faced lawsuits and negative press alleging that we improperly shared information about customers with third party “ad servers” for our Web sites. 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, mandatory privacy and security standards and protocols have been developed by the federal government, and we have incurred significant expenses to comply with these requirements. Additional similar federal and state laws may be passed in the future, and the cost of complying with additional legislation could have a negative impact on our operating results. If Internet use does not grow as a result of privacy or security concerns, increasing regulation or for other reasons, the growth of our Internet-based businesses would be hindered.
Actual product returns may exceed return reserves.We
generallyshipsignificantlymore desktop 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 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. 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.If we do not continue to successfully refine and update the business and operating models for our Internet-based products and services and other emerging service businesses, and continue to improve the operational support for these businesses, the businesses will not achieve sustainable financial viability or broad customer acceptance. Our business models for our Internet-based businesses and other emerging service businesses have more complex and varied revenue streams than our traditional desktop software businesses. For these businesses to become and remain economically viable, we must continually refine their business and operating models to reflect evolving economic circumstances. These businesses also depend on a different operational infrastructure than our desktop software businesses, and we must continually develop, expand and modify internal systems and procedures to support these businesses. In particular, our web-based tax preparation and electronic filing services must effectively handle extremely heavy customer demand during the peak tax season. If we are unable to meet customer expectations in a cost-effective manner, it could result in lost customers, negative publicity, and increased operating costs, which could have a significant negative impact on the financial and market success of these businesses. If we are unable to capitalize on new sources of revenue for our QuickBooks business, the business will not be able to achieve sustained growth. Sales of our QuickBooks desktop product for fiscal 2001 year to date are lower than expected, due to lower upgrades sales to existing customers compared to fiscal 2000, as well as lower than expected sales to new customers. We cannot rely solely on these sources of revenue to provide sustainable future growth for our Small Business Division. We must generate revenue from broader markets and customer segments as well as from new products and services. If we are unable to successfully restructure our QuickBooks Internet Gateway services and business model, the services will not achieve and maintain acceptance by customers and the third-party vendors who provide these services, and they will not generate long-term revenue growth or profitability. Intuit is refining its approach to selecting and working with QuickBooks Gateway vendors. Although we are seeing encouraging results for some services, such as merchant account services, that are more closely integrated with QuickBooks, we have ended relationships with most of our smaller alliance companies where the business results are not meeting our expectations or theirs. To maintain other current relationships, we may be required to adapt them in ways that are less attractive to us, financially or otherwise. In addition, QuickBooks Internet Gateway Services are currently available only to customers using QuickBooks 2000 or QuickBooks 2001, so customer adoption of the services is somewhat dependent on unit sales of newer QuickBooks products to new customers and to customers upgrading from older versions of the product. Customer upgrade and new user acquisition rates for QuickBooks 2001 have been lower than historical levels. -25-26 In order to successfully grow our payroll services business, we must continue to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our payroll processing operations and streamline customer activations for our Deluxe and Premier payroll processing service. The payroll processing business involves a number of business risks if we make errors in providing accurate and timely payroll information, cash deposits or tax return filings, including potential liability to customers, additional expense to correct product errors and loss of customers. For our Internet-based services (the Deluxe service, as well as the online Basic service), we must improve our operations to give customers more reliable connectivity to our data center to transmit and receive payroll data and tax tables. In order to expand the customer bases for our Deluxe and Premier payroll services, we must continue to focus on streamlining the service activation process for new customers. It is unlikely that the revenue and profit growth rates experienced by our mortgage business year-to-date during fiscal 2001 will be sustainable long-term, either on a year-over-year basis or on a sequential quarter basis. Mortgage rate increases, the impact of the economic climate on the housing market, business operation risks and other factors could result in significantly lower revenue and profit growth for our mortgage business. Increases in mortgage rates and other interest rates adversely affected our mortgage business during 2000, contributing to a significant revenue decline from fiscal 1999 to fiscal 2000. Conversely, declines in mortgage rates during fiscal 2001 have had a positive impact on revenue. If mortgage rates rise again, this could negatively impact the volume of applications and closed loans, particularly our most mortgage-rate sensitive products such as conventional loans and refinancing loans. Fluctuations in non-mortgage rates also create risks with respect to the loans on our balance sheet and impact our cost of funds to provide loans. In addition, our ability to successfully streamline the online application, approval, and closing process will have a significant impact on our ability to attract customers to our mortgage service, and on our ability to continue increasing the percentage of our mortgage revenue generated through the online channel compared to branch offices. We must also maintain relationships with certain banks and other third parties who we will rely on to provide access to capital, and later, service the loans. If we are unable to maintain key relationships, or if the terms of key relationships change to be less favorable to Intuit, it could have a negative impact on our mortgage business and on Intuit's financial results.-23-
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.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. Recently, electrical power in certain locations in California has been interrupted for short periods of time in the form of"rolling“rolling blackouts." We have principal facilities (including our primary data center) located in California.” To date, our business operations have not been materially impacted by these outages. However, it is possible that rolling blackouts will continue in the foreseeable future and our facilities could be significantly affected in the future.We currently have short-term alternate sources of power (in the form of backup batteries and generators) for all of our critical customer-facing operations in California, including our primary data center. However, if rolling blackouts become more frequent and/or longer in duration, it is possible that our alternative sources of power would be insufficient to allow us to continue our operations without interruption.Other unpredictable eventssuch as earthquakes, fires and floods,could also impact our ability to continue our business operations. For example, the September 2001 terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington, D.C. and the aftermath of those attacks may have an unpredictable negative impact on our business activities. For our Internet-based services,thesystem failures of our internal server operations or those of various third-partyInternetservice providers,online service providers and other website operatorscould result in interruption in our services to our customers. 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.-26-27-24-

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SHORT-TERM INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOShort-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.

See Note13 of the financialstatement notesstatements for more information regarding risks related to our investments in marketablesecurities and the impact of our trading securities on our reported net income. INTEREST RATE RISKsecurities.Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk represents a component of market risk to us and represents the possibility that changes in interest rates will cause unfavorable changes in our net income and in the value of our interest rate sensitive assets, liabilities and commitments, particularly those that relate to our mortgage
business.and payroll businesses. In a higher interest rate environment, borrower demand for mortgage loans generally declines, adversely affecting our mortgage loan business. Interest rate movements also affect the interest income earned on loans we hold for sale in the secondary market, interest expense on our lines of credit, the value of our mortgage loans and ultimately the gain or loss on the sale of those mortgage loans. In addition, interest rate movements affect the interest incomeearnedwe earn on payroll customer funds we hold and investments we hold in our short-term investment portfolio,andas well as the value ofthoseour short-term investments.As part of our risk management programs, we enter into financial agreements and purchase financial instruments in the normal course of business to manage our exposure to interest rate risk with respect to our conventional mortgage loans and our government-insured loans (together,
"Prime Loans"“Prime Loans”), but not with respect to our sub-prime loans or home equity lines of credit. We use these financial agreements and financial instruments for the explicit purpose of managing interest rate risks to protect the value of our mortgage loan portfolio and not for trading purposes.We actively monitor and manage our exposure to interest rate risk on Prime Loans, which is incurred in the normal course of business. The
committedportfolio of prime loans, including those in the pipeline, andclosed pipelines of Prime Loans, as well asthe related forward commitmentsand derivatives,are valueddaily.on a daily basis. We refer to the loans, pipeline,commitmentsandderivativesforward commitments together as the"Hedge“Hedge Position."” We evaluate the Hedge Position against a spectrum of interest rate scenarios to determine expected net changes in the fair values of the Hedge Position in relation to the changes in interest rates.We evaluateBased on ourinterest rate risk exposure daily using models that estimate changes in the fair value of the Hedge Position and compare those changes against the fair value of the underlying assets and commitments. -27-28 The following table shows the maturityanalysis of ourmortgage loans held for sale and home equity lines of credit: PRINCIPAL AMOUNTS BY EXPECTED MATURITY: (in thousands, except interest rates; Unaudited)

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. For the two quarters presented there was an immaterial currency exchange impact from our intercompany transactions. Currency exchange risk is also minimized since foreign debt is duealmostexclusively in local foreign currencies. As ofApril 30,October 31, 2001, we did not engage in foreign currency hedging activities.- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------25-

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 of California, Eastern Division. Following
Intuit'sIntuit’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 allege 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 atIntuit'sIntuit’s Quicken.comwebsite.Web site. The complaints seek injunctive relief, orders to disgorge profits related to the alleged acts, and statutory and other damages. Intuit believes these lawsuits are without merit and intends to defend the litigation vigorously.Intuit is subject to other 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.
