Adobe #ADBE – $483

Adobe's slowdown concerns could lead to a lower price and multiple. I would be interested in buying around $460 to $470 for a 3 year investment.
It has strong defensible franchises, great branding and leadership.

Very profitable in all its segments with operating margins in excess of 30%.

The threat of AI replacing some of the video editing and other products is still in its infancy and Adobe is also working on its own AI initiatives; they've just been slow to roll it out.

Forecasted revenue growth has slowed to 10-12% for the next three years, and management did disappoint for the next quarter’s guidance. However, Adobe is also a good earnings story with 13-14% earnings growth.

The only problem is the valuation, and the market perception that this is a mature company with $20Bn in revenue. At 28x earnings and 10x sales there’s not much left for appreciation with that slowing growth.

I would prefer to buy on declines at around $460- 470.
