ADBEAdobe Systems Incorporated
Sep 2026ResolvedThe execution estimate and supplied EPS imply 15.56 times trailing earnings, or a 6.43% earnings yield. Revenue growth of 12.7%, a 35.3% operating margin and 19.9% ROA support the case that current profitability is attractively priced. Its reported forward P/E of 9.31 is below CRM's 14.86 and ADSK's 16.58. Earnings growth of only 7.9% warrants caution: the investment case rests on profitable operations at a modest earnings multiple, not guaranteed multiple expansion.

Trimming a minor fraction (4.5%) of our Adobe holding to optimize capital allocation. Adobe remains our core valuation anchor trading at an extremely low 9.99x forward earnings, but Broadcom (AVGO) offers an even deeper valuation mismatch on a growth-adjusted basis with a PEG of 0.418.
