Adobe财报前瞻:目前“最佳”的机会
美股研究社· 2025-12-09 10:53
Core Viewpoint - Both Adobe and Salesforce have lost favor on Wall Street, yet their fundamentals continue to strengthen, presenting a dilemma: they could either be the most attractive stocks in the software sector or companies in decline whose downturn has not yet reflected in financial data [1]. Adobe Financial Performance - Adobe is set to release its Q4 FY2025 earnings report on December 10, which will provide insights into its performance for the fiscal year and expectations for the next fiscal year [3]. - The company's success over the past decade is attributed to its transition to a subscription-based business model, with nearly 97% of revenue coming from subscriptions. The revenue breakdown includes approximately 74% from digital media, 25% from digital experience, and 1% from publishing and advertising [4]. - For FY2024, Adobe's revenue target is set at no less than $23.65 billion, with expectations of quarterly revenue surpassing $6 billion for the first time [4][7]. - The projected net profit margin for the current fiscal year is expected to exceed 30%, with earnings per share (EPS) estimated between $16.53 and $16.58, leading to a trailing P/E ratio of approximately 20.5 [4][7]. Revenue Guidance and Growth - Adobe's revenue guidance has been consistently raised throughout the year, with the latest targets exceeding earlier projections made in March [8]. - Over the past decade, Adobe's core financial metrics have shown steady improvement, with no signs of adverse impacts from AI on its business. The average annual revenue growth rate for its products from 2021 to 2024 is projected to be no less than 12%, with Document Cloud experiencing a compound annual growth rate of 23% [8]. AI Integration and Market Perception - Concerns about AI disrupting Adobe's business model may be overstated, as the management has emphasized that AI presents significant growth opportunities [10]. - Adobe's professional user base requires high-quality tools, and while AI can enhance content production efficiency, it also increases the demand for post-processing, which could drive growth for Adobe [10][11]. - The integration of AI into Adobe's core products, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, is being executed through Adobe Firefly, which uses authorized datasets to mitigate legal risks [11]. - The adoption of AI features has led to a 70% penetration rate among eligible customers using Adobe Experience Platform's AI assistant, indicating that AI is becoming a growth driver rather than a threat [13][14]. Valuation and Stock Buyback - Adobe's current P/E ratio stands at 20, with a forward PEG ratio of 1.16, suggesting it is undervalued compared to typical tech valuations. The forward EV/EBITDA ratio is 12.4, and the forward P/FCF ratio is 15.34 [14]. - If Adobe maintains a 12% net profit growth rate, its forward P/E could drop to 14.9 by 2026, indicating a valuation more typical of industrial companies despite its tech-level profitability [15]. - The company has been actively repurchasing shares, with a total buyback of nearly $12 billion over the past four quarters, reflecting confidence in its undervalued stock [15][16]. Investment Outlook - Analysts view Adobe as an attractive investment opportunity, likely to yield substantial returns in the coming years, as the divergence between market narratives and the company's fundamentals becomes more pronounced [18]. - A comparison is drawn to Google's previous undervaluation, suggesting a similar turnaround could occur for Adobe by 2026 [19].
