Comment: Adobe’s first-quarter revenue grew 10% to US$5.71bn and EPS of US$5.08 beating analysts’ estimates. However, it provided a weaker-than-expected revenue outlook for the current quarter, despite efforts to monetize its generative AI features like Firefly. Sales are forecasted between US$5.77bn and US$5.82bn, slightly below analyst estimates, while adjusted profit is expected at US$4.95 to US$5 per share. The company remains optimistic about AI-driven growth and plans to provide more insight on its strategy at an upcoming investor event. In the long-term, Adobe’s AI innovations, particularly Firefly’s integration into creative tools, could enhance product stickiness and drive higher subscription revenue over time. In the near-term, we anticipate investor sentiment to remain cautious, projecting Adobe’s gradual AI growth trajectory. 2Q25recommended trading range: $418 to $440. Neutral Outlook.
