Adobe Reports Record Revenue in Q1 Fiscal 2022

Document Cloud ARR Surpasses $2 Billion Exiting the Quarter

Adobe (Nasdaq:ADBE) today reported financial results for its first quarter fiscal year 2022 ended March 4, 2022.

“Adobe achieved record Q1 revenue as Creative Cloud, Document Cloud and Experience Cloud continue to be pivotal in driving the digital economy,” said Shantanu Narayen, chairman and CEO, Adobe. “Adobe is committed to empowering individuals, transforming businesses and connecting communities.”

“Adobe’s Q1 results reflect the company’s strong execution and resilience through unprecedented circumstances,” said Dan Durn, executive vice president and CFO, Adobe. “Our momentum, product innovation and immense market opportunity position us for success in 2022 and beyond.”

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Highlights

  • Adobe achieved record revenue of $4.26 billion in its first quarter of fiscal year 2022, which represents 9 percent year-over-year growth or 17 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1. Diluted earnings per share was $2.66 on a GAAP basis and $3.37 on a non-GAAP basis.

  • Digital Media segment revenue was $3.11 billion, which represents 9 percent year-over-year growth or 17 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1. Creative revenue grew to $2.55 billion, representing 7 percent year-over-year growth or 16 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1. Document Cloud revenue was $562 million, representing 17 percent year-over-year growth or 26 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1.

  • Digital Media Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) increased $418 million quarter over quarter to $12.57 billion exiting the quarter. Creative ARR grew to $10.54 billion and Document Cloud ARR grew to $2.03 billion.

  • Digital Experience segment revenue was $1.06 billion, representing 13 percent year-over-year growth or 20 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1. Digital Experience subscription revenue was $932 million, representing 15 percent year-over-year growth or 22 percent adjusted year-over-year growth1.

  • GAAP operating income in the first quarter was $1.58 billion, and non-GAAP operating income was $1.99 billion. GAAP net income was $1.27 billion, and non-GAAP net income was $1.60 billion.

  • Cash flows from operations were $1.77 billion.

  • Remaining Performance Obligations (“RPO”) exiting the quarter were $13.83 billion, representing 19 percent year-over-year growth.

  • Adobe repurchased approximately 3.8 million shares during the quarter.

Impact of War in Ukraine

On March 4, 2022, Adobe announced a halt of all new sales of Adobe products and services in Russia and Belarus. In addition, today Adobe is reducing its Digital Media ARR balance by $75 million, which represents all ARR for existing business in Russia and Belarus. While Adobe will continue to provide Digital Media services in Ukraine, the company reduced ARR by an additional $12 million, which represents its entire Digital Media business in Ukraine. This results in a total ARR reduction of $87 million and an expected revenue impact of $75 million for fiscal year 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Adobe continues to provide all information required in accordance with GAAP, but believes evaluating its ongoing operating results may not be as useful if an investor is limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Adobe uses non-GAAP financial information to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Adobe's management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adobe presents such non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate Adobe's operating results. Adobe believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. This allows institutional investors, the analyst community and others to better understand and evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management.

Adobe's management believes it is useful for itself and investors to review, as applicable, both GAAP information as well as non-GAAP measures, which may exclude items such as stock-based and deferred compensation expenses, amortization of intangibles, investment gains and losses, the related tax impact of all of these items, income tax adjustments, and the income tax effect of the non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments from the provision for income taxes. Adobe uses these non-GAAP measures in order to assess the performance of Adobe's business and for planning and forecasting in subsequent periods. Whenever such a non-GAAP measure is used, Adobe provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as detailed above.
