On Sept. 14, Intuit announced it had signed a definitive agreement to purchase Mint.com, a leading provider of online personal finance services, in a cash transaction valued at approximately $170 million. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of calendar year 2009 and is subject to regulatory review and other customary closing conditions. Following the close of the transaction, Intuit expects to reduce its fiscal year 2010 non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) diluted earnings per share guidance by approximately 2 cents and its GAAP diluted earnings per share guidance by approximately 3 cents. Intuit does not expect the acquisition to have a material effect on fiscal year 2011 earnings.
