Adobe Inc

Adobe has faced significant share price declines, initially due to competition from Figma and Canva, and later being categorized as an 'AI loser.' However, we believe Adobe is more resilient than perceived. Its offerings are irreplaceable in many industries, and it is well-positioned to integrate into key AI workflows. With a P/E under 10x and a free cash flow yield exceeding 10%, the market is undervaluing the stock despite ongoing growth around 10%. The company is actively repurchasing shares, creating a compelling investment opportunity as it demonstrates resilience in the AI era.

We initiated this position recently, capitalizing on an over-correction driven by fears that generative AI would destroy its moat. We believe Adobe will ultimately integrate AI successfully into its dominant creative suite, making its tools more entrenched, not less. We have also actively utilized cash-secured puts on this position to generate additional yield while we build our stake.

We also added Adobe, a software firm with dominant positions in content creation (e.g., Photoshop, Illustrator) and PDF editing (Acrobat). This reflects our belief in the company's strong market position and growth potential in the software sector, particularly as demand for digital content creation continues to rise.

Former market darlings such as Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) and Adobe (Nasdaq:ADBE) are now 40-50% below their highs, with much of the decline occurring over the past three months.

We added Adobe Inc., trading well below its 2021 peak, given its 'sticky' professional user base and well-received Firefly integration into Photoshop and Illustrator.
