Adobe stock price is cheap: is it a good buy?

by June 1, 2025
by June 1, 2025

Adobe stock price has underperformed the broader market and other companies in the software-as-a-service (SaaS) industry like Microsoft, ServiceNow, and Salesforce. It has dropped by over 35% from its highest point last year as concerns about competition and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) remain. 

Competition, AI, and growth concerns

The Adobe share price has come under pressure in the past few months as the company faces a mountain of challenges.

Its biggest challenge is competition from companies like Canva and Figma, which have become multibillion-dollar firms. Canva has a valuation of almost $50 billion, while the recent fundraising placed Figma’s valuation at over $12 billion.

These firms have become big names because of their investments in easy-to-use solutions, emphasis on collaboration, and artificial intelligence services. 

Adobe stock price has also dropped as AI tools disrupt some of its solutions. While the company has invested in AI tools, investors are yet to see the impact in terms of revenue and profitability. 

Analysts and investors are concerned about the impact of AI on some of its services like Photoshop and Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver, which simplifies the website design process, is being disrupted by AI tools like ChatGPT and Grok that can build a website from scratch after a few prompts.

Adobe stock price has also underperformed because of an FTC lawsuit that alleges the company hid fees and prevented customers from cancelling its software easily. 

Further, there are concerns about Adobe’s growth. Its last annual revenue rose to $21.5 billion, up from $19.4 billion.

The most recent numbers showed that Adobe’s revenue rose by 10% in the first quarter to $5.71 billion. Its operating income rose to $2.16 billion, while its cash flow from operations rose to $2.48 billion.

Most of Adobe’s revenue came from the digital media segment, which made $4.23 billion. This business includes the Creative Cloud and Document Cloud businesses, including services like InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. 

The digital experience business includes services like Marketo, Adobe Target, , Journey Optimizier, and Adobe Campaign.

ADBE earnings and valuation

The next key catalyst for the Adobe stock price will be its earnings, which will come out in June. 

Wall Street analysts anticipate that the revenue rose by 9.2% in the first quarter to $5.8 billion. The most optimistic analyst sees its revenue coming in at almost $6 billion.

Analysts also expect that its second-quarter revenue will be $5.8 billion, a 8.65% increase. The annual revenue is expected to be $23.46 billion and $25.72 billion, respectively. 

Analysts also believe that Adobe stock price is cheap. The average stock forecast is $488, up from the current $380. 

It has a net income and a free cash flow margin of 30% and 37%, and an annual growth rate of about 10%. This gives it a rule of 40 metric in the range of 40% and 47%, making it fairly valued.

The daily chart shows that the ADBE share price bottomed at $332.98 in April and then bounced back to over $400 today. It has moved above the upper side of the descending channel.

The stock has formed a bullish flag pattern and moved above the 50-day and 100-day moving averages. The most likely scenario is where the Adobe share price rebounds and hits the psychological point at $500, up by 20% from the current level.
