Adobe (ADBE) shares dropped nearly 12% on Thursday following a full-year revenue forecast that fell short of Wall Street expectations, raising concerns about delayed returns from its investments in artificial intelligence (AI). The company forecast fiscal 2025 revenue between $23.30 billion and $23.55 billion, below analysts' average estimate of $23.78 billion. While Adobe has made strides in integrating AI technologies, such as generative image and video tools, analysts noted a lack of clear monetization metrics that has made investors hesitant.

Adobe(ADBE)股价周四下跌近12%,此前其全年收入预测低于华尔街的预期,这引发了人们对其人工智能(AI)投资延迟回报的担忧。该公司预测2025财年的收入在233.0亿美元至235.5亿美元之间,低于分析师平均估计的237.8亿美元。尽管Adobe在整合人工智能技术(例如生成图像和视频工具)方面取得了长足的进步,但分析师指出,缺乏明确的盈利指标,这使投资者犹豫不决。

The San Jose-based firm has positioned itself against well-funded AI startups like Stability AI and Midjourney, as well as ChatGPT maker OpenAI. Despite the potential of its AI-driven products, market skepticism persists. "With Adobe underperforming the S&P for over five years now, rekindling investor confidence through consistent beat-and-raise performances is critical," analysts at Evercore ISI said. The stock's underperformance has been exacerbated by concerns over its ability to capitalize on AI innovations in the near term.

这家总部位于圣何塞的公司已将自己定位为与Stability AI和Midjourney等资金充足的人工智能初创公司以及ChatGPT制造商OpenAI对抗。尽管其人工智能驱动的产品具有潜力,但市场仍然持怀疑态度。Evercore ISI的分析师表示:“由于Adobe在五年多的时间里表现低于标准普尔,因此通过持续的击败加薪表现来重燃投资者的信心至关重要。”对该股在短期内利用人工智能创新的能力的担忧加剧了该股的表现不佳。

熊壳:

  • The lack of clear monetization metrics for AI tools may continue to deter investors, leading to further stock underperformance.

  • 收入预测短缺引发了人们对Adobe迅速将其人工智能投资货币化的能力的担忧,从而影响了投资者的情绪。

  • 人工智能工具缺乏明确的货币化指标可能会继续阻碍投资者,导致股票表现进一步不佳。

At $493.10, Adobe's stock is down about 8% year-to-date, significantly underperforming the S&P 500's 27.6% gain. While the company's management remains optimistic about its GenAI roadmap, analysts highlight a disconnect between Adobe's internal achievements and market sentiment. For the software giant to regain investor confidence, clarity on AI monetization and consistent financial performance will be paramount.

Adobe的股票今年迄今已下跌约8%,为493.10美元,表现大大低于标准普尔500指数27.6%的涨幅。尽管该公司的管理层仍然对其GenAI路线图持乐观态度,但分析师强调Adobe的内部成就与市场情绪之间存在脱节。对于这家软件巨头来说,要恢复投资者的信心,明确人工智能货币化和稳定的财务业绩将是至关重要的。

Adobe has also faced a slew of downgrades from brokerages, with many cutting price targets due to the company's ambiguous AI monetization strategy. This ambiguity, coupled with increasing competition from both established and emerging players, has heightened market concerns. The upcoming fiscal quarters will be critical as Adobe looks to align its product offerings with investor expectations while maintaining its competitive edge in AI-driven creative solutions.

Adobe还面临经纪商的一系列下调评级,由于该公司模棱两可的人工智能货币化策略,许多经纪公司下调了目标股价。这种模棱两可,加上来自知名和新兴企业的竞争日益激烈,加剧了市场的担忧。即将到来的财政季度至关重要,因为Adobe希望使其产品供应与投资者的预期保持一致,同时保持其在人工智能驱动的创意解决方案中的竞争优势。
