Frequently asked questions
What is Adobe Systems Incorporated's revenue?
Adobe Systems Incorporated's trailing twelve-month revenue is $24.45B, and consensus projects about $39.12B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is ADBE?
In its most recent fiscal year, ADBE ran a gross margin of 88.61%, an operating margin of 36.63%, and a net margin of 30.00%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does ADBE generate?
ADBE produced $9.85B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is ADBE's balance sheet healthy?
ADBE holds $5.43B in cash and equivalents against $6.21B in long-term debt, on $11.62B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
