โขLTM Net Income Margins: 17.6%
***NOW TO VALUATION ๐ง
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~16% MORE in EPS & ~2% LESS in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Grahamโs 2G rule of thumb, $INTU has to grow earnings at a 14.37% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2025 - 2027 EPS growth over the next few years to be slightly less than the (14.37%) required growth rate:
2025E: $19.32 (14.1% YoY) *FY Jul
2026E: $22.13 (14.5% YoY)
2027E: $25.09 (13.4% YoY)
$INTU has a great track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but letโs assume $INTU ends 2027 with $25.09 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples:
32x P/E: $802.88๐ต โฆ ~16.1% CAGR
31x P/E: $777.79๐ต โฆ ~14.6% CAGR
30x P/E: $752.70๐ต โฆ ~13.0% CAGR
29x P/E: $727.61๐ต โฆ ~11.5% CAGR
28x P/E: $702.52๐ต โฆ ~10.0% CAGR
While itโs certainly reasonable for $INTU to trade for 32x, I wouldnโt want to rely on that assumption as it doesnโt leave us with a substantial margin of safety
Yet, given its quality, moat, predictability, & growth rate, I am comfortable relying on 28x - 30x multiple, making $INTU a good purchase today at $560๐ต
I consider $INTU a strong purchase with a substantial margin of safety closer to $525๐ต, or ~27.60x NTM earnings (~7% below todays price)
Given todayโs estimates, at $525๐ต I can reasonably expect ~10% CAGR while assuming an attractive & conservative 26x multiple

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~16% MORE in EPS & ~2% LESS in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Grahamโs 2G rule of thumb, $INTU has to grow earnings at a 14.37% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2025 - 2027 EPS growth over the next few years to be slightly less than the (14.37%) required growth rate:
2025E: $19.32 (14.1% YoY) *FY Jul
2026E: $22.13 (14.5% YoY)
2027E: $25.09 (13.4% YoY)
$INTU has a great track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but letโs assume $INTU ends 2027 with $25.09 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples:
32x P/E: $802.88๐ต โฆ ~16.1% CAGR
31x P/E: $777.79๐ต โฆ ~14.6% CAGR
30x P/E: $752.70๐ต โฆ ~13.0% CAGR
29x P/E: $727.61๐ต โฆ ~11.5% CAGR
28x P/E: $702.52๐ต โฆ ~10.0% CAGR
While itโs certainly reasonable for $INTU to trade for 32x, I wouldnโt want to rely on that assumption as it doesnโt leave us with a substantial margin of safety
Yet, given its quality, moat, predictability, & growth rate, I am comfortable relying on 28x - 30x multiple, making $INTU a good purchase today at $560๐ต
I consider $INTU a strong purchase with a substantial margin of safety closer to $525๐ต, or ~27.60x NTM earnings (~7% below todays price)
Given todayโs estimates, at $525๐ต I can reasonably expect ~10% CAGR while assuming an attractive & conservative 26x multiple
