Macquarie maintains a 'Neutral' on Intuit (NASDAQ: INTU) price target of $53.00.

Macquarie analyst says, "For F4Q we model revenue of US$580m and a non-GAAP EPS of US$0.00, compared to consensus of US$583m and US$0.00 and guidance of US$567-587m and US$(0.02)-0.02, respectively...We expect the company to provide a conservative FY2012 outlook especially Small Business Group guidance given current SMB trends. We expect FY tax guidance to bracket consensus at +12%, though we see some risk in the midpoint of Small Business guidance falling slightly below consensus of +10%. We estimate FY12 total revenue of US$4,217m and non-GAAP EPS of US$2.85."
