Adobe Shares Drop About 2% After Hours as Q4 Revenue Outlook Misses Expectations
Adobe shares slipped after-hours despite a Q3 beat and higher full-year guidance, as Q4 revenue guidance came in slightly below consensus and net new ARR declined sharply year-over-year. Slower remaining performance obligation growth versus subscription revenue also raised questions about near-term demand visibility. Competitive pressure from lower-cost AI tools and a CEO transition added execution risk, keeping focus on forward growth quality rather than the earnings beat.
