Intuit is shifting its fiscal 2027 strategy from pricing and upgrades toward acquiring more QuickBooks and TurboTax customers. The strategy includes sharper pricing, broader distribution, and artificial-intelligence integration to simplify services, while higher customer-acquisition costs could reduce initial revenue per customer. Intuit expects fiscal 2027 revenue growth of 9%–10%, down from 14% in fiscal 2026, as it invests in customer additions. The company aims to deepen customer relationships and increase long-term ecosystem growth despite slowed customer additions and competition.
