Adobe has raised its fiscal 2025 revenue and profit forecasts, reflecting robust demand for its design tools and growing monetization of artificial intelligence solutions. Shares of the San Jose-based software giant climbed 3% in extended trading following the announcement.
Widely recognized for creative software like Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Acrobat, Adobe continues to attract new users and subscribers across enterprises, students, and professionals. CFO Dan Durn emphasized that fresh sign-ups remain the company’s primary growth engine.
To capture opportunities in the AI market, Adobe has invested heavily in its generative AI tool, Firefly, which allows users to create images and videos from text prompts and seamlessly integrate them into their designs. However, analysts remain cautious, with Jefferies noting limited acceleration in Firefly adoption despite significant investment.
The company now projects fiscal 2025 revenue between $23.65 billion and $23.70 billion, up from its earlier forecast of $23.50 billion to $23.60 billion. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) are expected to range from $20.80 to $20.85, compared with the prior $20.50 to $20.70 guidance.
For its fourth quarter, Adobe anticipates revenue of $6.08 billion to $6.13 billion, slightly above Wall Street’s $6.08 billion consensus. Adjusted EPS for the quarter is forecast at $5.35 to $5.40, surpassing analyst expectations of $5.34. Adobe also reported revenue of $5.99 billion for the quarter ended August 29, beating estimates of $5.91 billion.
Despite its stronger outlook, Adobe shares have dropped over 21% year-to-date as investors weigh competitive threats from rivals like Figma and the pace of AI-driven growth. The company’s challenge lies in proving that its AI investments can deliver meaningful long-term returns.
