How Adobe Will Compete with Free AI Tools and Protect Users' IP with CFO Dan Durn

  • Summary

  • On this episode of After Earnings, Ann Berry sits down with Adobe CFO Dan Durn to unpack the company’s strategy as free generative AI tools flood the market. Adobe is expanding its focus beyond professional creatives to attract everyday users and businesses, with Firefly AI now integrated into its core products, enabling features like text-to-video and automated image enhancements. The company kicked off 2025 with $5.7 billion in Q1 revenue, up 10% from last year, and nearly $2.5 billion in operating cash flow. Still, the market is questioning whether $125 million in revenue from AI-powered tools is enough, as Adobe’s stock remains down more than 22% over the past year. $ADBE 00:00 START 02:32 Adobe's Cloud Services Explained 04:38 Competing in the AI Landscape 08:46 Adobe's Innovation and Market Position 11:11 Customer Trust and IP Protection 13:18 Future Outlook and Market Confidence 16:17 Rapid Fire Questions After Earnings is brought to you by Stakeholder Labs and Morning Brew.
