NOTE
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We have
prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”). Pursuant to these rules and regulations, we have condensed or
omitted certain information and footnote disclosures we normally include in our
annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In
management’s opinion, we have made all adjustments (consisting only of normal,
recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary to fairly
present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Our
interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that
may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. These
financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2007 on file with the
SEC.
There have
been no material changes in our significant accounting policies, except for the
adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Financial
Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” on December 1,
2007 as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30,
2007.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
With the
exception of those discussed below, there have been no recent accounting
pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the six months
ended May 30, 2008, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
November 30, 2007, that are of significance, or potential significance, to
us.
In April
2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of
the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. FSP 142-3 amends the factors
an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions used in
determining the useful life of recognized intangible assets under FASB Statement
No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This new guidance
applies prospectively to intangible assets that are acquired individually or
with a group of other assets in business combinations and asset acquisitions.
FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is
prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that FSP
142-3 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In March
2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.
161 (“SFAS 161”), “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities”. SFAS 161 requires companies with derivative instruments to
disclose information that should enable financial-statement users to understand
how and why a company uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments
and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133,
“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” and how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a company’s financial
position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that
SFAS 161 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In June
2007, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) issued
Statement of Position 07-1 (“SOP 07-1”), “Clarification of the Scope of the
Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent
Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies”.
SOP 07-1 defines investment companies for purposes of applying the related
AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide. SOP 07-1 provides guidance on whether an
investment company’s parent or equity-method investor should retain
investment-company accounting in its financial statements. SOP 07-1 would
have been effective beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2009; however, in
February 2008, the FASB issued FSP SOP 07-1-1 which indefinitely delayed
the effective date of SOP 07-1.

In
February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 (“SFAS 159”),
“The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. Under
SFAS 159, companies may elect to measure certain financial instruments and
certain other items at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains
and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported
in earnings and disclosed. SFAS 159 was effective for us beginning in the
first quarter of fiscal 2008. We currently do not have any instruments for which
we have elected the fair value option. Therefore, the adoption of SFAS 159
has not impacted our consolidated financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157 (“SFAS 157”),
“Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements.
SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather
eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting
pronouncements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB FSP 157-2 which
delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair
value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually),
until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. These nonfinancial items include assets and
liabilities such as reporting units measured at fair value in a goodwill
impairment test and nonfinancial assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a
business combination. Effective December 1, 2007, we adopted SFAS 157
for financial assets and liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring
basis. The partial adoption of SFAS 157 for financial assets and
liabilities did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 2 for information and
related disclosures regarding our fair value measurements.
In July
2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes by prescribing the recognition threshold a tax position is
required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also
provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Additionally, in May
2007, the FASB published FSP No. FIN 48-1 (“FSP FIN 48-1”),
“Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48”. FSP FIN 48-1
is an amendment to FIN 48. It clarifies how an enterprise should determine
whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing
previously unrecognized tax benefits. We adopted both FIN 48 and FSP
FIN 48-1 on December 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in
an increase to both assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of the beginning of fiscal 2008. See Note 6 for additional
information regarding income taxes, including the effects of adoption on our
condensed consolidated financial statements.

The
investments of limited partnership relate to our interest in Adobe Ventures
IV L.P. (“Adobe Ventures”) which was $34.3 million and $30.6 million
as of May 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007, respectively. The level 1
investments of limited partnership relate to investments in publically traded
companies and the level 3 investments relate to investments in privately-held
companies. Our evaluation of fair value includes, but is not limited to,
reviewing each company’s cash position, financing needs, earnings and revenue
outlook, operational performance, management and ownership changes and
competition. The change in this asset balance relates primarily to investment
gains included in earnings during the three and six months ended May 30, 2008.
All other activity during the quarter was insignificant both individually and in
the aggregate. See Note 4
for further information regarding Adobe Ventures and related accounting
policies.
Foreign
currency derivatives include option and forward foreign exchange contracts
primarily for the Japanese Yen and the Euro.
NOTE
3. GOODWILL AND PURCHASED AND OTHER INTANGIBLES
Goodwill
as of May 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007 was $2.135 billion and
$2.148 billion, respectively. The change includes net reductions in
goodwill of $9.6 million related to deferred tax assets associated with our
acquisition of Scene7 and $4.2 million related to the tax reserve
associated with the acquisition of Macromedia, offset in part by foreign
currency changes. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, we completed
our annual goodwill impairment test. Based on this analysis, we determined that
there was no impairment of goodwill.

Entities”.
The
partnership is controlled by Granite Ventures, an independent venture capital
firm and sole general partner of Adobe Ventures. Investments also include our
direct investments which are accounted for under the cost method.
The
increase in security and other deposits relates primarily to the purchase of a
real property in Massachusetts. We have entered into a Purchase and Sale
Agreement, effective as of May 12, 2008, for the acquisition of real
property located in Waltham, Massachusetts. We will purchase the property
subject to completion of construction of an office building shell and core,
parking structure and site improvements. The purchase price for the property
will be $44.7 million. We made an initial deposit of $7.0 million to be held in
escrow until closing and then applied to the purchase price. Closing is expected
to occur in May 2009 and the remaining balance is due at such
time.

NOTE
6. INCOME TAXES
We adopted
both FIN 48 and FSP FIN 48-1 on December 1, 2007. The adoption of
FIN 48 resulted in an increase of $3.9 million to both assets and
liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of
fiscal 2008. Upon adoption, the gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits at
December 1, 2007 was $218.4 million, exclusive of interest and
penalties. The total amount of gross FIN 48 liabilities includes
$57.7 million that relates to certain tax attributes from acquired
companies, including Macromedia. These liabilities from acquired companies are
not recorded on our balance sheet because they are related to positions that
have not yet been claimed on our income tax returns. If the total FIN 48
gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits at December 1, 2007 were
recognized in the future, the following amounts, net of an estimated
$22.2 million benefit related to deducting such payments on future tax
returns, would result: $99.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits would
decrease the effective tax rate, $82.8 million would decrease goodwill and
$14.4 million would increase additional paid-in-capital.
We have
historically presented our estimated liability for unrecognized tax benefits as
a current liability. FIN 48 requires liabilities for unrecognized tax
benefits to be classified based on whether a payment is expected to be made
within the next 12 months. That is, amounts expected to be paid within the
next 12 months are to be classified as a current liability and all other
amounts are to be classified as a non-current liability. As a result of adopting
FIN 48, we reclassified $197.7 million from current income taxes
payable to long-term income taxes payable, including accrued interest on the
balance.
We have
historically presented our estimated state, local and interest liabilities net
of the estimated benefit we expect to receive from deducting such payments on
future tax returns (i.e., on a “net” basis). FIN 48 requires this
estimated benefit to be classified as a deferred tax asset instead of a
reduction of the overall liability (i.e., on a “gross” basis). Thus, we
recognized additional deferred income tax assets of $3.9 million to present
the unrecognized tax benefits as gross amounts on our condensed consolidated
balance sheet.
Our policy
to classify interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as income tax
expense did not change upon the adoption of FIN 48. As of December 1,
2007, the combined amount of accrued interest and penalties related to tax
positions taken on our tax returns and included in non-current income taxes
payable was approximately $42.8 million.
We file
income tax returns in the U.S. on a federal basis and in many U.S. state and
foreign jurisdictions. We are subject to the continual examination of our income
tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other domestic and
foreign tax authorities. Our major tax jurisdictions are the U.S., Ireland and
California. For U.S. and California, our fiscal 2001 through fiscal
2008 years are open for examination. A current examination by the IRS for
our fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003 tax returns, is primarily related to our
intercompany transfer pricing. For Ireland, our fiscal 2002 through fiscal
2008 years are open for examination.
The timing
of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, and the
amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the
taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year.
While it is reasonably possible that some issues in the IRS and other
examinations could be resolved within the next 12 months, based upon the
current facts and circumstances, we cannot estimate the timing of such
resolution or range of potential changes as it relates to the unrecognized tax
benefits that are recorded as part of our financial statements.
During the
six months ended May 30, 2008, the gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits
and related accrued interest and penalties did not significantly change from the
balance ended November 30, 2007.

Summary
of Performance Shares
Effective
January 24, 2008, the Executive Compensation Committee adopted the 2008
Performance Share Program (the “2008 Program”). The purpose of the 2008 Program
is to align key management and senior leadership with stockholders’ interests
and to retain key employees. The measurement period for the 2008 Program is our
fiscal 2008 year. All members of our executive management and other key
senior leaders are participating in the 2008 Program. Awards granted under the
2008 Program were granted in the form of performance shares pursuant to the
terms of our 2003 Equity Incentive Plan. If pre-determined performance goals are
met, shares of stock will be granted to the recipient, with 25% vesting on the
later of the date of certification of achievement or the first anniversary date
of the grant, and the remaining 75% vest evenly on the following three annual
anniversary dates of the grant, contingent upon the recipient’s continued
service to Adobe. Participants in the 2008 Program have the ability to receive
up to 200% of the target number of shares originally granted.
The
following table sets forth the summary of performance share activity under our
2008 Program for the six months ended May 30, 2008.

In the
first quarter of fiscal 2008, the Executive Compensation Committee certified the
actual performance achievement of participants in the 2006 Performance Share
Program (the “2006 Program”) and the 2007 Performance Share Program (the “2007
Program”). Based upon the achievement of goals outlined in the 2006 Program and
2007 Program, participants had the ability to receive up to 150% and 200%,
respectively, of the target number of shares originally granted. Actual
performance resulted in participants achieving approximately 105% of target or
0.3 million shares for the 2006 Program and 200% of target or
0.7 million shares for the 2007 Program. Shares awarded under the 2006
Program vested 100% and were released in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
Shares under the 2007 Program vested 25% in the first quarter of fiscal 2008,
and the remaining 75% vest evenly on the following three annual anniversary
dates of the grant, contingent upon the recipient’s continued service to
Adobe.

NOTE
10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock
Repurchase Program I
During the
six months ended May 30, 2008 and June 1, 2007, we entered into several
structured repurchase agreements with large financial institutions, whereupon we
provided the financial institutions with prepayments of $250.0 and
$600.0 million, respectively. We entered into these agreements in order to
take advantage of repurchasing shares at a guaranteed discount to the Volume
Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of our common stock over a specified period of
time. We only enter into such transactions when the discount that we receive is
higher than the foregone return on our cash prepayments to the financial
institutions. There were no explicit commissions or fees on these structured
repurchases. Under the terms of the agreements, there is no requirement for the
financial institutions to return any portion of the prepayment to
us.
The
financial institutions agree to deliver shares to us at monthly intervals during
the contract term. The parameters used to calculate the number of shares
deliverable are: the total notional amount of the contract, the number of
trading days in the contract, the number of trading days in the interval and the
average VWAP of our stock during the interval less the agreed upon discount.
During the six months ended May 30, 2008, we repurchased 16.6 million
shares at an average price of $36.58 through structured repurchase agreements
which included prepayments from fiscal 2007. During the six months ended June 1,
2007, we repurchased 10.7 million shares at an average price of $39.00
through structured repurchase agreements which included prepayments from fiscal
2006.
As of May
30, 2008 and November 30, 2007, the prepayments were classified as treasury
stock on our balance sheet at the payment date, though only shares physically
delivered to us by May 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007 are excluded from the
denominator in the computation of earnings per share. All outstanding structured
repurchase agreements as of May 30, 2008 under this program will expire on or
before September 19, 2008. As of May 30, 2008 and June 1, 2007, approximately
$66.1 million and $386.9 million, respectively, of up-front payments
remained under the agreements.

(Unaudited)
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, we entered into additional structured stock repurchase
agreements with large financial institutions whereupon we provided the financial
institutions with prepayments of $75.0 million. The $75.0 million will be
classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet. See Note 17 for further
discussion of our stock repurchase programs.
Stock
Repurchase Program II
Under this
stock repurchase program, we have authorization to repurchase 50.0 million
shares of our common stock. From the inception of this program, we have
repurchased 49.5 million shares and provided prepayments of
$1.9 billion under structured share repurchase agreements to large
financial institutions. During the six months ended May 30, 2008, we provided
prepayments of $1.05 billion and repurchased 31.9 million shares under these
structured agreements at an average price of $37.15. As of May 30, 2008, there
are no up-front payments remaining under these agreements. There were no
prepayments under this program as of June 1, 2007.
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, as part of Stock Repurchase Program II, we repurchased 0.5
million shares for $18.2 million through open market repurchases. This
amount will be classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet. See Note 17 for further discussion of our stock
repurchase programs.

For the
three and six months ended May 30, 2008, options to purchase approximately 17.9
million and 16.7 million shares, respectively, of common stock with exercise
prices greater than the average fair market value of our stock of $37.29 and
$37.75, respectively, were not included in the calculation because the effect
would have been anti-dilutive.

approximately 11.9 million and 10.0 million shares, respectively, of common

NOTE
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lease
Commitments
We occupy
three office buildings in San Jose, California where our corporate headquarters
are located. We reference these office buildings as the Almaden Tower and the
East and West Towers.
In August
2004, we extended the lease agreement for our East and West Towers for an
additional five years with an option to extend for an additional five years
solely at our election. In March 2007, the Almaden Tower lease was extended for
five years, with a renewal option for an additional five years solely at our
election. As part of the lease extensions, we purchased the lease receivable
from the lessor of the East and West Towers for $126.8 million and a
portion of the lease receivable from the lessor of the Almaden Tower for
$80.4 million, both of which are recorded as investments in lease
receivables on our consolidated balance sheet. This purchase may be credited
against the residual value guarantee if we purchase the properties or will be
repaid from the sale proceeds if the properties are sold to third parties. Under
the agreement for the East and West Towers and the agreement for the Almaden
Tower, we have the option to purchase the buildings at any time during the lease
term for approximately $143.2 million and $103.6 million,
respectively. The residual value guarantees under the East and West Towers and
the Almaden Tower obligations are $126.8 million and $89.4 million,
respectively.
These two
leases are both subject to standard covenants including certain financial ratios
that are reported to the lessors quarterly. As of May 30, 2008, we were in
compliance with all covenants. In the case of a default, the lessor may demand
we purchase the buildings for an amount equal to the lease balance, or require
that we remarket or relinquish the buildings. Both leases qualify for operating
lease accounting treatment under SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” and,
as such, the buildings and the related obligations are not included on our
consolidated balance sheet. We utilized this type of financing in order to
access bank-provided funding at the most favorable rates and to provide the
lowest total cost of occupancy for the headquarter buildings. At the end of the
lease term, we can extend the lease for an additional five year term, purchase
the buildings for the lease balance, remarket or relinquish the buildings. If we
choose to remarket or are required to do so upon relinquishing the buildings, we
are bound to arrange the sale of the buildings to an unrelated party and will be
required to pay the lessor any shortfall between the net remarketing proceeds
and the lease balance, up to the residual value guarantee amount.
Guarantees
The lease
agreements for our corporate headquarters provide for residual value guarantees
as noted above. Under FASB Interpretation No. 45, (“FIN 45”),
“Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others,” the fair value of a residual
value guarantee in lease agreements entered into after December 31, 2002
must be recognized as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet. As such, we
recognized $5.2 million and $3.0 million in liabilities, related to
the East and West Towers and Almaden Tower leases, respectively. These
liabilities are recorded in other long-term liabilities with the offsetting
entry recorded as prepaid rent in other assets. The balance will be amortized to
the income statement over the life of the leases. As of May 30, 2008 and
November 30, 2007, the unamortized portion of the fair value of the
residual value guarantees, for both leases, remaining in other long-term
liabilities and prepaid rent was $3.4 million and $4.2 million,
respectively.
Royalties
We have
certain royalty commitments associated with the shipment and licensing of
certain products. Royalty expense is generally based on a dollar amount per unit
shipped or a percentage of the underlying revenue.

Indemnifications
In the
normal course of business, we provide indemnifications of varying scope to
customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third
parties arising from the use of our products. Historically, costs related to
these indemnification provisions have not been significant and we are unable to
estimate the maximum potential impact of these indemnification provisions on our
future results of operations.
To the
extent permitted under Delaware law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our
directors and officers for certain events or occurrences while the director or
officer is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity. The indemnification
period covers all pertinent events and occurrences during the director’s or
officer’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be
required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however,
we have director and officer insurance coverage that reduces our exposure and
enables us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. We believe the
estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements in excess of applicable
insurance coverage is minimal.
As part of
our limited partnership interest in Adobe Ventures, we have provided a general
indemnification to Granite Ventures, an independent venture capital firm and
sole general partner of Adobe Ventures, for certain events or occurrences while
Granite Ventures is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity provided
that Granite Ventures acts in good faith on behalf of the partnership. We are
unable to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments
that could potentially result from any hypothetical future claim, but believe
the risk of having to make any payments under this general indemnification to be
remote.
Legal
Proceedings
On
October 13, 2006, a purported shareholder derivative action entitled Steven
Staehr v. Bruce R. Chizen, et al was filed in the Superior Court of California
for the County of Santa Clara against certain of our current and former officers
and directors and against Adobe as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts
that stock option grants to executives were priced retroactively by Adobe and
were improperly accounted for and alleges various causes of action based on that
assertion. The complaint seeks payment by the defendants to Adobe of damages
allegedly suffered by it and disgorgement of profits, as well as injunctive
relief. On November 27, 2007 the Court granted defendants’ demurrer to the
second amended complaint and dismissed it without leave to amend. On
December 11, 2007, plaintiff filed a motion for reconsideration of the
Court’s order sustaining the demurrer without leave to amend, but that motion
was denied by the Court on January 29, 2008. The Court issued a
final judgment dismissing the complaint on April 7, 2008.
In
connection with our anti-piracy efforts, conducted both internally and through
organizations such as the Business Software Alliance, from time to time we
undertake litigation against alleged copyright infringers. Such lawsuits may
lead to counter-claims alleging improper use of litigation or violation of other
local laws. We believe we have valid defenses with respect to such
counter-claims; however, it is possible that our consolidated financial
position, cash flows or results of operations could be affected in any
particular period by the resolution of one or more of these
counter-claims.
From time
to time, in addition to those identified above, Adobe is subject to legal
proceedings, claims and investigations in the ordinary course of business,
including claims of alleged infringement of third-party patents and other
intellectual property rights, commercial, employment and other matters. In
accordance with GAAP, Adobe makes a provision for a liability when it is both
probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be
reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and
adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of
legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.
Litigation is inherently unpredictable. However, we believe that we have valid
defenses with respect to the legal matters pending against Adobe. It is
possible, nevertheless, that our consolidated financial position, cash flows or
results of operations could be negatively affected by an unfavorable resolution
of one or more of such proceedings, claims or investigations.
NOTE
14. CREDIT AGREEMENT
In August
2007, we entered into the Amendment to our Credit Agreement dated February 2007
(the “Amendment”), which increased the total senior unsecured revolving facility
from $500.0 million to $1.0 billion. The Amendment also permits us to
request one-year extensions effective on each anniversary of the closing date of
the original agreement, subject
ADOBE
SYSTEMS INCORPORATED
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In
thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
to the
majority consent of the lenders. We also retain an option to request an
additional $500.0 million in commitments, for a maximum
aggregate facility of $1.5 billion.
In
February 2008, we entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement
dated February 26, 2008, which extended the maturity date of the facility
by one year to February 16, 2013. The facility would terminate at this date
if no additional extensions have been requested and granted. All other terms and
conditions remain the same.
The
facility contains a financial covenant requiring us not to exceed a certain
maximum leverage ratio. At the Company’s option, borrowings under the facility
accrue interest based on either the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) for
one, two, three or six months, or longer periods with bank consent, plus a
margin according to a pricing grid tied to this financial covenant, or a base
rate. The margin is set at rates between 0.20% and 0.475%. Commitment fees are
payable on the facility at rates between 0.05% and 0.15% per year based on the
same pricing grid. The facility is available to provide loans to us and certain
of our subsidiaries for general corporate purposes. During the six months ended
May 30, 2008, we borrowed $450.0 million and made repayments of $100.0 million
under this facility. As of May 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007, the amount
outstanding under the credit facility was $350.0 million and zero,
respectively, which is included in long-term liabilities on our condensed
consolidated balance sheet. As of May 30, 2008, we were in compliance with all
of the covenants.

opportunities
ranging from the diverse publishing needs of technical and business publishing,
to our legacy type and original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) printing
businesses.
Effective
in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, to better align our engineering and
marketing efforts, we merged our Knowledge Worker Solutions segment with our
Enterprise Solutions segment (formerly “Enterprise and Developer Solutions”) to
form our new Business Productivity Solutions business unit. However, under the
requirements of SFAS No. 131, (“SFAS 131”), “Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” Knowledge Worker Solutions
and Enterprise Solutions are separate reportable segments. In addition, we moved
responsibility for Flex Builder, Flex SDK and our ColdFusion product line to our
Platform segment from our Enterprise Solutions segment. The prior year
information in the table below has also been updated to reflect this product
movement.
Our chief
operating decision maker reviews revenue and gross margin information for each
of our operating segments. Operating expenses are not reviewed on a segment by
segment basis. In addition, with the exception of goodwill and intangible
assets, we do not identify or allocate our assets by the operating
segments.

Stock
Repurchase Programs
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, as part of Stock Repurchase Program I, we entered into
additional structured stock repurchase agreements with large financial
institutions whereupon we provided the financial institutions with prepayments
of $75.0 million. This amount will be classified as treasury stock on our
balance sheet. See
Note 10 for further discussion of our stock repurchase
programs.
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, as part of Stock Repurchase Program II, we repurchased 0.5
million shares for $18.2 million through open market repurchases. This
amount will be classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet. See Note 10 for further discussion of
our stock repurchase
programs.
Intellectual
Property Rights
In June
2008, we acquired certain intellectual property rights totaling $90.0 million.
To the extent the intellectual property rights will benefit future periods, we
will capitalize such amounts and amortize them over their useful
life.
The
following discussion (unaudited and presented in millions, except share and per
share amounts) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto.

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
Founded in
1982, Adobe Systems Incorporated is one of the largest and most diversified
software companies in the world. We offer a line of creative, business and
mobile software and services used by creative professionals, designers,
knowledge workers, high-end consumers, OEM partners, developers and enterprises
for creating, managing, delivering and engaging with compelling content and
experiences across multiple operating systems, devices and media. We distribute
our products through a network of distributors and dealers, value-added
resellers (“VARs”), systems integrators, independent software vendors (“ISVs”)
and OEMs, direct to end users and through our Web site at www.adobe.com. We also
license our technology to hardware manufacturers, software developers and
service providers, and we offer integrated software solutions to businesses of
all sizes. We have operations in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and
Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia. Our software runs on personal computers with Microsoft
Windows, Apple OS, Linux, UNIX and various non-PC platforms, depending on the
product.
We
maintain executive offices and principal facilities at 345 Park Avenue, San
Jose, California 95110-2704. Our telephone number is 408-536-6000. We maintain a

this site free of charge, as well as from the SEC Web site at
www.sec.gov.
OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Effective
in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, to better align our engineering and
marketing efforts, we merged our Knowledge Worker Solutions segment with our
Enterprise Solutions segment to form our new Business Productivity Solutions
business unit. However, under the requirements of SFAS 131, Knowledge
Worker Solutions and Enterprise Solutions are separate reportable segments. In
addition, we moved responsibility for Flex Builder, Flex SDK and our ColdFusion
product line to our Platform segment from our Enterprise Solutions segment. The
prior year information has been updated to reflect this product
movement.
During the
second quarter of fiscal 2008, we continued to focus on driving revenue growth
and increasing market share of our products through the continued delivery of
comprehensive software and technology solutions that meet the evolving needs of
our customers.
In our
Creative Solutions segment, we grew revenue substantially on a year-over-year
basis as we continued to increase the penetration of our Creative Suite 3
(“CS3”) family of products during the second quarter. This growth was driven by
strong CS3 results in Japan as well as continued solid CS3 demand in
Europe. Our digital video products, our hobbyist products and our
Scene7 business all achieved strong results in the second quarter.
In our
Knowledge Worker Solutions segment, we achieved record revenue with our Acrobat
family of products in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Helping drive this
success was continued strong licensing of Acrobat products due to ongoing
adoption by users in enterprises, governments and other vertical
markets.
In our
Enterprise Solutions segment, we achieved strong year-over-year revenue growth
as we continued to focus on delivering innovative products and solutions for our
customers.
Our Mobile
and Device Solutions segment achieved record revenue in Q2 due to the success we
have had targeting mobile operators, handset manufacturers and consumer
electronic device manufactures with our Flash Lite and Flash Cast
technologies. Our strong Mobile and Device results included a large
transaction with a consumer electronics device manufacturer. On May 1, 2008, we
announced the Open Screen Project. The project aims to enable a consistent
runtime environment that will remove barriers for developers and designers as
they publish content and applications across desktops and consumer devices,
including phones, mobile internet devices (“MIDs”) and set top boxes. As
part of the project, we will be removing some restrictions on the use of some of
our technology specifications and publishing several technology protocols.
We will also be removing the license fees on the next major releases of Adobe
Flash Player and Adobe AIR for devices. Accordingly, we expect revenue
from Mobile and Device Solutions to decrease following the next major release of
these products scheduled for fiscal 2009. We would expect this decrease to
be offset in time by an increased demand for tooling products, server
technologies, hosted services and applications.
Our
Platform business performed strongly, resulting in significant year-over-year
revenue growth and our Print Publishing business segment also achieved modest
year-over-year revenue growth.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
In
preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with
GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, we make assumptions,
judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical
experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. On a regular basis, we evaluate our
assumptions, judgments and estimates. We also discuss our critical accounting
estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
We believe
that the assumptions, judgments and estimates involved in the accounting for
revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, goodwill impairment and income
taxes have the greatest potential impact on our condensed consolidated financial
statements. These areas are key components of our results of operations and are
based on complex rules which require us to make judgments and estimates, so we
consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Historically, our
assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting
policies have not differed materially from actual results.
With the
exception of our adoption of FIN 48, there have been no other significant
changes in our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended May 30,
2008 as compared to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
November 30, 2007.

As
described in Note 16 of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, we have the following segments: Creative Solutions, Knowledge Worker
Solutions, Enterprise Solutions, Mobile and Device Solutions, Platform and Print
Publishing products.
Our
services and support revenue is comprised of consulting, training, and
maintenance and support, primarily related to the licensing of our enterprise,
developer and platform products. Our support revenue also includes technical
support and developer support to partners and developer organizations related to
our desktop products. Our maintenance and support offerings which entitle
customers to receive product upgrades and enhancements or technical support,
depending on the offering, are recognized ratably over the term of the
arrangement.

Revenue
from Creative Solutions increased $90.6 million during the three months ended
May 30, 2008 as compared to the three months ended June 1, 2007, of which
approximately 50% related to an increase in Creative Suites revenue and
approximately 25% related to an increase in Photoshop
revenue. Revenue from Creative Solutions increased $287.7 million
during the six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended
June 1, 2007, of which approximately 70% related to an increase in Creative
Suites revenue and approximately 20% related to an increase in Photoshop
revenue.
The
increase in Creative Suites revenue was due primarily to the release of
localized versions of our CS3 family of products during the third quarter of
fiscal 2007 and to a lesser extent the launch of the English versions of our CS3
family of products in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. As a result
of the launch of the CS3 family of products, there was an increase in the number
of units sold as well as an increase in certain unit average selling prices as
compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2007. The increase in
average selling price was due in part to an increase in comparable per unit
pricing year-over-year and Adobe’s ability to move some customers to
higher-priced product suites. The increase in Photoshop revenue primarily
related to the launch of new Photoshop offerings during fiscal
2008.
Revenue
from Knowledge Worker Solutions increased $13.6 million and $34.3 million during
the three and six months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three
and six months ended June 1, 2007, primarily due to higher average selling
prices associated with continued licensing of our Acrobat 8 family of
products. The volume remained relatively stable compared with fiscal
2007.
Revenue
from Enterprise Solutions increased $10.4 million and $22.1 million during the
three and six months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three and
six months ended June 1, 2007. The increase was primarily due to continued
adoption of our LiveCycle family of products.
Revenue
from Mobile and Device Solutions increased $9.9 million and $11.4 million during
the three and six months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three
and six months ended June 1, 2007. The increase was primarily due to increased
consulting revenue in Mobile Applications and continued strong unit shipments of
our Flash enabled devices including a large transaction with a gaming console
manufacturer. On May 1, 2008, we announced the Open Screen Project. The
project aims to enable a consistent runtime environment that will remove
barriers for developers and designers as they publish content and applications
across desktops and consumer devices, including phones, MIDs and set top
boxes. As part of the project, we will be removing some restrictions on
the use of some of our technology specifications and publishing several
technology protocols. We will also be removing the license fees on the
next major releases of Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR for devices.
Accordingly, we expect revenue from Mobile and Device Solutions to decrease
following the next major release of these products scheduled for fiscal
2009. We would expect this decrease to be offset in time by an increased
demand for tooling products, server technologies, hosted services and
applications.
Revenue
from Platform increased $11.5 million and $23.8 million during the three and six
months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three and six months
ended June 1, 2007. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue from our
Flex Builder, Flash Player and ColdFusion products, each of which contributed
relatively evenly to the revenue growth.
Revenue
from Print Publishing increased $5.3 million and $3.0 million during the three
and six months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three and six
months ended June 1, 2007. The increase resulted principally from increased
revenue associated with our legacy products, the introduction of Technical Suite
and increased adoption of Shockwave.

Overall
revenue for the three and six months ended May 30, 2008 increased when compared
to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007 primarily due to continued
adoption of our CS3 and LiveCycle families of products and continued licensing
of our Acrobat 8 family of products. Sales of our Mobile and Device products and
Platform products also contributed to the increase.
Revenue in
the Americas was relatively stable during the three months ended May 30, 2008 as
compared to the three months ended June 1, 2007 and increased slightly during
the six months ended May 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 1,
2007.
Revenue in
EMEA increased $83.7 million and $191.9 million during the three and six months
ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended
June 1, 2007, due to solid demand in all of our major product categories.
Additionally, revenue in EMEA measured in U.S. dollars increased approximately
$29.1 million and $54.5 million during the three and six months ended May
30, 2008, respectively, over the same reporting periods last year due to the
strength of the Euro over the U.S. dollar.
Revenue in
Asia increased $57.3 million and $91.5 million during the three and six months
ended May 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended
June 1, 2007. The increase primarily resulted from sales of our LiveCycle and
Platform products. Additionally, revenue in Asia measured in U.S. dollars
increased approximately $15.4 million and $21.9 million during the three
and six months ended May 30, 2008, respectively, over the same reporting periods
last year primarily due to the strength of the Japanese Yen over the U.S.
dollar.
Product
Backlog
With
regard to our product backlog, the actual amount of backlog at any particular
time may not be a meaningful indicator of future business prospects. Our backlog
of unfulfilled orders at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2008, other
than those associated with new product releases, those pending credit review and
those not shipped due to the application of our global inventory policy, was
approximately 4% of second quarter fiscal 2008 revenue. The comparable backlog
at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was approximately 5% of first
quarter fiscal 2008 revenue.

Localization
costs which are amortized over the product life cycle, increased during the
three and six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared to the three and six months
ended June 1, 2007, primarily due to the release of the localized versions of
our CS3 family of products in the third quarter of fiscal 2007.
Amortization
expense decreased during the three and six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared
to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007, due to a decrease in
amortization expense primarily associated with intangible assets purchased
through the Macromedia acquisition. Additionally, during the second quarter of
fiscal 2007, charges were incurred in connection with certain technology
licensing arrangements.
Services
and Support
Cost of
services and support revenue is primarily comprised of employee-related costs
and associated costs incurred to provide consulting services, training and
product support.
Cost of
services and support revenue increased during the three and six months ended May
30, 2008 as compared to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007, due to
increases in compensation and related benefits primarily as a result of
headcount increases.

The
increase in compensation costs for the three and six months ended May 30, 2008
related to higher expense for profit sharing and employee bonuses based on
company performance to date, when compared to the three and six months ended
June 1, 2007 and increased headcount in all functions.

During the
six months ended May 30, 2008, there was an adjustment to previous estimates
associated with closing redundant Macromedia facilities that were acquired
through the acquisition. As of May 30, 2008, accrued restructuring charges
related to the Macromedia acquisition totaled $15.7 million. We expect to pay
this liability through fiscal 2011.

Amortization
expense decreased during the three and six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared
to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007, due to a decrease in
amortization expense associated with intangible assets purchased through the
Macromedia acquisition and a decrease due to assets that were fully amortized
during the second quarter of fiscal 2007, offset in part by newly acquired
assets from acquisitions during fiscal 2007. Additionally, included
in the amortization of purchased intangibles for the three and six months ended
June 1, 2007 is $1.5 million related to the write-off of in-process research and
development from an acquisition that occurred during the second quarter of
fiscal 2007.

Interest
and Other Income, net
The
largest component of interest and other income, net, was interest earned on
cash, cash equivalents and short-term fixed income investments. Interest and
other income, net also included gains and losses on the sale or write-down for
other-than-temporary impairment of fixed income investments and foreign exchange
gains and losses, including those from hedging revenue transactions primarily
denominated in Japanese Yen and Euro currencies.
Interest
and other income, net, decreased during the three and six months ended May 30,
2008 as compared to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007 primarily as a
result of lower interest rates and lower average invested balances due to cash
used for our share repurchase programs.
Interest
Expense
Interest
expense as of May 30, 2008, primarily represents interest associated with our
credit facility. The outstanding balance as of May 30, 2008 was $350.0 million.
Interest due under the credit facility is paid upon expiration of the LIBOR
contract or at a minimum, quarterly.
Investment
Gains, net
Investment
gains, net, consist principally of realized gains or losses from the sale of
marketable equity investments, other-than-temporary declines in the value of
marketable and non-marketable equity securities and gains and losses of Adobe
Ventures. In the three and six months ended May 30, 2008, investment gains, net,
increased as compared to the three and six months ended June 1, 2007 due
primarily to the gain resulting from the expiration of the escrow period related
to the sale of our investment in Atom Entertainment, Inc. that occurred during
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Our
effective tax rate decreased approximately 3% during the three months ended May
30, 2008 as compared to the three months ended June 1, 2007. The
decrease was primarily related to stronger forecasted international profits for
fiscal 2008 and lower foreign taxes on those forecasted profits.
Our
effective tax rate increased approximately 2% during the six months ended May
30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 1, 2007. The
increase was primarily related to the expiration of the U.S. research and
development tax credit on December 31, 2007, reductions in tax exempt
interest income for fiscal 2008, and a one-time tax benefit for the
reinstatement of the U.S. research and development tax credit that was reflected
in its entirety in the first quarter of fiscal 2007. The increase is
offset by the aforementioned international profit forecast described
above.

Our
primary source of cash is receipts from revenue. The primary uses of cash are
payroll related expenses; general operating expenses including marketing, travel
and office rent; and cost of product revenue. Another source of cash is proceeds
from the exercise of employee options and participation in the ESPP and another
use of cash is our stock repurchase program, which is detailed
below.
Cash
Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash
provided by operating activities of $731.1 million for the six months ended
May 30, 2008, was primarily comprised of net income plus the net effect of
non-cash expenses. The primary working capital sources of cash were increases in
net income, income taxes payable and deferred revenue. The increase in income
taxes payable relates primarily to the higher income tax provision for the three
and six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared to the three and six months ended
June 1, 2007. Increases in deferred revenue related to maintenance and support
and a customer prepayment, offset in part by decreases in deferred revenue for
our Education products and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
The
primary working capital uses of cash were increases in receivables, payments of
accrued expenses, trade payables and accrued restructuring costs and outlays for
prepaid expenses and other current assets. Receivables increased primarily as a
result of the timing of shipments during the second quarter of fiscal 2008
compared to the same reporting period in fiscal 2007. Our days sales outstanding
in trade receivables was 33 days for the second quarter of fiscal
2008. Accrued expenses decreased primarily due to payments for
employee bonuses and commissions, offset in part by additional contributions to
the employee stock purchase accrual. Accrued restructuring decreased primarily
due to payments for facility costs for the six months ended May 30, 2008.
Outlays for prepaid expenses and other current assets were primarily for annual
insurance premiums.
Cash
Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash
from investing activities increased from cash used for the six months ended June
1, 2007 of $158.4 million to cash provided for the six months ended May 30,
2008 of $259.7 million. Sources of cash during the six months ended May 30,
2008 primarily represented maturities and sales of short-term investments and to
a lesser extent, proceeds from the sale of equity securities. Sources of cash
were offset in part by purchases of short-term investments, property and
equipment and long-term investments and other assets. Additionally, as part of
our lease extension for the Almaden Tower lease completed during the second
quarter of fiscal 2007, we purchased a portion of the lease receivable totaling
$80.4 million and we also completed two acquisitions for cash consideration of
approximately $70.0 million during the six months ended June 1,
2007.
Cash
Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash
used for financing activities increased $446.2 million for a total of
$778.4 million in the six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared to cash
used for the same period last year, primarily due to increased purchases of
treasury stock when compared to the prior year (see sections entitled “Stock
Repurchase Program I” and “Stock Repurchase Program II” discussed below),
offset by proceeds related to the issuance of the treasury stock. Sources
of cash during the six months ended May 30, 2008 also included
$450.0 million of proceeds from borrowings under our credit facility offset
with repayments of $100.0 million on this credit facility.
We expect
to continue our investing activities, including short-term and long-term
investments and purchases of computer systems for research and development,
sales and marketing, product support and administrative staff. Furthermore, cash
reserves may be used to repurchase stock under our stock repurchase programs and
to strategically acquire software companies, products or technologies that are
complementary to our business. The Board of Directors has approved a facilities
expansion for our operations in India, which may include the purchase of land
and buildings. As previously disclosed, we plan to invest $100.0 million
directly in venture capital, of which, approximately $25.7 million has
already been spent. The remaining balance will be invested over the next three
to five years.
Our
existing cash, cash equivalents and investment balances may decline during
fiscal 2008 in the event of a weakening of the economy or changes in our planned
cash outlay. However, based on our current business plan and revenue prospects,
we believe that our existing balances, our anticipated cash flows from
operations and our available credit facility will be sufficient to meet our
working capital and operating resource expenditure requirements for the next
twelve months. Cash from operations could be affected by various risks and
uncertainties, including, but not limited to the risks detailed in Part II,
Item 1A titled “Risk Factors”. During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we
also increased our existing $500.0 million credit facility to
$1.0 billion. The purpose of the credit facility is to provide backup
liquidity for general corporate purposes including stock repurchases. In January
2008, we drew down $450.0 million under this facility, of which $350.0
million was outstanding as of May 30, 2008 and is included in long-term
liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
In June
2008, we acquired certain intellectual property rights totaling $90.0 million.
To the extent the intellectual property rights will benefit future periods, we
will capitalize such amounts and amortize them over their useful
life.
We use
professional investment management firms to manage a large portion of our
invested cash. External investment firms managed, on average, 43% of our
consolidated invested balances during the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Within
the U.S., the portfolio is invested primarily in money market funds for working
capital purposes. Outside of the U.S., our fixed income portfolio is primarily
invested in U.S. Treasury securities. All investments are made according to
policies approved by the Board of Directors.
Stock
Repurchase Program I
During the
six months ended May 30, 2008, we entered into several structured repurchase
agreements with large financial institutions, whereupon we provided the
financial institutions with prepayments of $250.0 million. We entered into
these agreements in order to take advantage of repurchasing shares at a
guaranteed discount to the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of our common
stock over a specified period of time. We only enter into such transactions
when
the
discount that we receive is higher than the foregone return on our cash
prepayments to the financial institutions. There were no explicit commissions or
fees on these structured repurchases. Under the terms of the agreements, there
is no requirement for the financial institutions to return any portion of the
prepayment to us.
The
financial institutions agree to deliver shares to us at monthly intervals during
the contract term. The parameters used to calculate the number of shares
deliverable are: the total notional amount of the contract, the number of
trading days in the contract, the number of trading days in the interval, and
the average VWAP of our stock during the interval less the agreed upon
discount.
The
prepayments were classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet at the
payment date, though only shares physically delivered to us by May 30, 2008 are
excluded from the denominator in the computation of earnings per share. All
outstanding structured repurchase agreements as of May 30, 2008 under this
program will expire on or before September 19, 2008. As of May 30, 2008
approximately $66.1 million of up-front payments remained under the agreements.
During the six months ended May 30, 2008, we repurchased 16.6 million shares at
an average price per share of $36.58 through structured repurchase agreements
which included prepayments from fiscal 2007.
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, we entered into additional structured stock repurchase
agreements with large financial institutions whereupon we provided the financial
institutions with prepayments of $75.0 million. The $75.0 million will be
classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet. See Notes 10 and 17 of our
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of
our stock repurchase programs.
Stock
Repurchase Program II
Under this
stock repurchase program, we have authorization to repurchase 50.0 million
shares of our common stock. From the inception of this program, we have
repurchased 49.5 million shares and provided prepayments of $1.9 billion
under structured share repurchase agreements to large financial institutions.
During the six months ended May 30, 2008, we provided prepayments of $1.05
billion and repurchased 31.9 million shares under these structured agreements at
an average price per share of $37.15. As of May 30, 2008, there are no up-front
payments remaining under these agreements. There were no prepayments under this
program as of June 1, 2007.
Subsequent
to May 30, 2008, as part of Stock Repurchase Program II, we repurchased 0.5
million shares for $18.2 million through open market repurchases. This amount
will be classified as treasury stock on our balance sheet. See Notes 10 and 17 of our Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of
our stock
repurchase programs.
Refer
to Part II, Item 2 in this report for share repurchases during the
quarter ended May 30, 2008.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations
Our
principal commitments as of May 30, 2008 consist of obligations under operating
leases, royalty agreements and various service agreements. See Note 13 of our Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more detailed
information.
Contractual
Commitments
With the
exception of our adoption of FIN 48 and the borrowings under our credit
facility, there have been no other significant changes in our contractual
commitments during the six months ended May 30, 2008 as compared to the
contractual commitments disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2007.
As of May
30, 2008, the principal outstanding under the credit facility was
$350.0 million which is due in full no later than February 16, 2013.
Interest associated with this facility cannot be estimated with certainty by
period throughout the term since it is based on a fluctuating interest rate
calculation.
As a
result of adopting FIN 48, we reclassified $197.7 million from current
income taxes payable to long-term income taxes payable related to unrecognized
tax benefits. We cannot estimate the payments due by period because the total
income tax payable and timing of tax payments depend on the resolution of
current and future tax examinations which cannot be estimated with
certainty.
Lease
Commitments
Two of our
lease agreements discussed in Note 13 of our Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements are subject to standard financial covenants.
As of May 30, 2008, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants
and we expect to remain in compliance during the next 12 months. We believe
these limitations will not impact our credit or cash in the coming fiscal year
or restrict our ability to execute our business plan.
Royalties
We have
certain royalty commitments associated with the shipment and licensing of
certain products. Royalty expense is generally based on a dollar amount per unit
shipped or a percentage of the underlying revenue.
Guarantees
The lease
agreements for our corporate headquarters provide for residual value guarantees.
Under FIN 45, the fair value of a residual value guarantee in lease
agreements entered into after December 31, 2002 must be recognized as a
liability on our consolidated balance sheet. As such, we recognized
$5.2 million and $3.0 million in liabilities, related to the East and
West Towers and Almaden Tower leases, respectively. These liabilities are
recorded in other long-term liabilities with the offsetting entry recorded as
prepaid rent in other assets. The balance will be amortized to the income
statement over the life of the leases. As of May 30, 2008, the unamortized
portion of the fair value of the residual value guarantees remaining in other
long-term liabilities and prepaid rent was $3.4 million.
Indemnifications
In the
normal course of business, we provide indemnifications of varying scope to
customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third
parties arising from the use of our products. Historically, costs related to
these indemnification provisions have not been significant and we are unable to
estimate the maximum potential impact of these indemnification provisions on our
future results of operations.
To the
extent permitted under Delaware law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our
directors and officers for certain events or occurrences while the director or
officer is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity. The indemnification
period covers all pertinent events and occurrences during the director’s or
officer’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be
required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however,
we have director and officer insurance coverage that limits our exposure and
enables us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. We believe the
estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements in excess of applicable
insurance coverage is minimal.
As part of
our limited partnership interest in Adobe Ventures, we have provided a general
indemnification to Granite Ventures, an independent venture capital firm and
sole general partner of Adobe Ventures, for certain events or occurrences while
Granite Ventures is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity provided
that Granite Ventures acts in good faith on behalf of the partnership. We are
unable to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments
that could potentially result from any hypothetical future claim, but believe
the risk of having to make any payments under this general indemnification to be
remote.
We believe
that there have been no significant changes in our market risk exposures for the
three and six months ended May 30, 2008.
Based on
their evaluation as of May 30, 2008, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended) were effective at the reasonable assurance level to
ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in this quarterly
report on Form 10-Q was (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and (ii)
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
There were
no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter
ended May 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal
controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A
control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system
are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that
there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered
relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control
systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all
control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Adobe have been
detected.
PART
II—OTHER INFORMATION
See
Note 13 “Commitments and Contingencies” of our Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements regarding our legal proceedings.
As
previously discussed, our actual results could differ materially from our
forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below. These and
many other factors described in this report could adversely affect our
operations, performance and financial condition.
Delays
in development or shipment of new products or upgrades to existing products
could cause a decline in our revenue.
Any delays
or failures in developing new products or new features for existing products or
marketing our products may have a harmful impact on our results of operations.
Our inability to extend our core technologies into new applications and new
platforms and to anticipate or respond to technological changes could affect
continued market acceptance of our products and our ability to develop new
products. Delays in product or upgrade introductions could cause a decline in
our revenue, earnings or stock price.
Introduction
of new products and business models by existing and new competitors could harm
our competitive position and results of operations.
The
markets for our products are characterized by intense competition, evolving
industry standards and business models, rapid software and hardware technology
developments and frequent new product introductions. Our future success will
depend on our ability to enhance our existing products, introduce new products
on a timely and cost-effective basis, meet changing customer needs, extend our
core technology into new applications, and anticipate and respond to emerging
standards, business models and other technological changes. For example,
Microsoft Windows Vista operating system which contains a fixed document format,
XPS, competes with Adobe PDF. Additionally, Microsoft Office 2007, which offers
a feature to save Microsoft Office documents as PDF files through a freely
distributed plug-in, competes with Adobe PDF creation. Microsoft Expression
Studio competes with our Adobe Creative Suite products and Microsoft Silverlight
and Visual Studio, web development tools for rich internet applications, compete
with Adobe Flash and Adobe Flex. In addition, companies, such as Google, Sun,
Apple and Microsoft, may introduce competing software offerings for free or
“open source” vendors may introduce competitive products. For example, Microsoft
recently made available Microsoft Expression Studio free of charge to students.
If these competing products achieve widespread acceptance, our operating results
could suffer. In addition, consolidation has occurred among some of the
competitors in our markets. Any further consolidations among our competitors may
result in stronger competitors and may therefore harm our results of operations.
For additional information regarding our competition and the risks arising out
of the competitive environment in which we operate, see the section entitled
“Competition” contained in Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for fiscal 2007.
If
we fail to successfully manage transitions to new business models and markets,
our results of operations could be negatively impacted.
We are
devoting significant resources to the development of technologies and service
offerings where we have a limited operating history, including the enterprise
and government markets, the mobile and device markets and software as service
offerings. In the enterprise and government markets, we intend to increase our
focus on vertical markets such as education, financial services, manufacturing,
and the architecture, engineering and construction markets and horizontal
markets such as training and marketing. These new offerings and markets require
a considerable investment of technical,
financial
and sales resources, and a scalable organization. Many of our competitors may
have advantages over us due to their larger presence, larger developer network,
deeper experience in the enterprise and government markets and the mobile and
device markets, and greater sales and marketing resources. In the mobile and
device markets, our intent is to persuade device makers, manufacturers and
telecommunications carriers to embed our technology on their platforms, and in
the enterprise and government market our intent is to form strategic alliances
with leading enterprise and government solutions and service providers to
provide additional resources to further enable penetration of such markets. If
we are unable to successfully enter into strategic alliances with device makers,
manufacturers, telecommunication carriers and leading enterprise and government
solutions and service providers, or if they are not as productive as we
anticipate, our market penetration may not proceed as rapidly as we anticipate
and our results of operations could be negatively impacted. Another development
is the software as a service business model, by which companies provide
applications, data and related services over the Internet. Providers use
primarily advertising or subscription-based revenue models. Recent advances in
computing and communications technologies have made this model viable and could
enable the rapid growth of some of our competitors. We are exploring the
deployment of our own software as a service strategies, but may not be able to
develop the infrastructure and business models as quickly as our competitors. It
is uncertain whether these strategies will prove successful. Additionally, from
time to time we “open source” certain of our technology initiatives, provide
broader open access to certain of our technology, such as our recently announced
Open Screen Project and release selected technology for industry
standardization. These changes may have negative revenue implications and make
it easier for our competitors to produce products similar to ours, and if we are
unable to respond to these competitive threats, our business could be
harmed.
If
we fail to anticipate and develop new products and services in response to
changes in demand for application software and software delivery, computers,
printers, or other non PC-devices, our business could be harmed.
Any
failure to anticipate changing customer requirements and develop and deploy new
products in response to changing market conditions may have a material impact on
our results of operations. We plan to release numerous new product offerings in
connection with our transition to new business models. Market acceptance of
these new product and service offerings will be dependent on our ability to
include functionality and usability in such releases that address the
requirements of customer demographics with which we have limited prior
experience. To the extent we incorrectly estimate customer requirements for such
products or services or if there is a delay in market acceptance of such
products or services, our business could be harmed. Additionally, customer
requirements for “open standards” or “open source” products could impact
adoption or use with respect to some of our products.
We offer
our desktop application-based products primarily on Windows and Macintosh
platforms. We generally offer our server-based products on the Linux platform as
well as the Windows and UNIX platforms. To the extent that there is a slowdown
of customer purchases of personal computers on either the Windows or Macintosh
platform or in general, or to the extent that significant demand arises for our
products or competitive products on the Linux desktop platform before we choose
and are able to offer our products on this platform, our business could be
harmed. Additionally, to the extent that we have difficulty transitioning
product or version releases to new Windows and Macintosh operating systems, or
to the extent new releases of operating systems or other third party products
make it more difficult for our products to perform, our business could be
harmed.
Adverse
changes in general economic or political conditions in any of the major
countries in which we do business could adversely affect our operating
results.
As our
business has grown, we have become increasingly subject to the risks arising
from adverse changes in domestic and global economic and political conditions.
For example, the direction and relative strength of the U.S. economy has
recently been increasingly uncertain due to softness in the housing markets,
rising oil prices, difficulties in the financial services sector and credit
markets and continuing geopolitical uncertainties. If economic growth in the
United States and other countries’ economies is slowed, many customers may delay
or reduce technology purchases or marketing spending. This could result in
reductions in sales of our products, longer sales cycles, slower adoption of new
technologies and increased price competition. Any of these events would likely
harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Political
instability in any of the major countries we do business would also likely harm
our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Revenue
from our new businesses may be difficult to predict.
As
previously discussed, we are devoting significant resources to the development
of product and service offerings where we have a limited operating history. This
makes it difficult to predict revenue and revenue may decline quicker than
anticipated. Additionally, we have a limited history of licensing products in
certain markets such as the enterprise market and may experience a number of
factors that will make our revenue less predictable, including longer than
expected sales and implementation cycles, potential deferral of revenue due to
multiple-element revenue arrangements and alternate licensing
arrangements.
We
may incur substantial costs enforcing or acquiring intellectual property rights
and defending against third-party claims as a result of litigation or other
proceedings.
In
connection with the enforcement of our own intellectual property rights, the
acquisition of third-party intellectual property rights, or disputes relating to
the validity or alleged infringement of third-party intellectual property
rights, including patent rights, we have been, are currently and may in the
future be subject to claims, negotiations or complex, protracted litigation.
Intellectual property disputes and litigation are typically very costly and can
be disruptive to our business operations by diverting the attention and energies
of management and key technical personnel. Although we have successfully
defended or resolved past litigation and disputes, we may not prevail in any
ongoing or future litigation and disputes. In addition, we may incur significant
costs in acquiring the necessary third party intellectual property rights for
use in our products. Third party intellectual property disputes could subject us
to significant liabilities, require us to enter into royalty and licensing
arrangements on unfavorable terms, prevent us from manufacturing or licensing
certain of our products, cause severe disruptions to our operations or the
markets in which we compete, or require us to satisfy indemnification
commitments with our customers including contractual provisions under various
license arrangements. Any of these could seriously harm our
business.
We
may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights, including our
source code, from third-party infringers, or unauthorized copying, use,
disclosure or malicious attack.
Although
we defend our intellectual property rights and combat unlicensed copying and use
of software and intellectual property rights through a variety of techniques,
preventing unauthorized use or infringement of our rights is inherently
difficult. We actively pursue software pirates as part of our enforcement of our
intellectual property rights, but we nonetheless lose significant revenue due to
illegal use of our software. If piracy activities increase, it may further harm
our business.
Additionally,
we take significant measures to protect the secrecy of our confidential
information and trade secrets, including our source code. If unauthorized
disclosure of our source code occurs, we could potentially lose future trade
secret protection for that source code. The loss of future trade secret
protection could make it easier for third parties to compete with our products
by copying functionality, which could adversely affect our revenue and operating
margins. We also seek to protect our confidential information and trade secrets
through the use of non-disclosure agreements with our customers, contractors,
vendors, and partners. However there is a risk that our confidential information
and trade secrets may be disclosed or published without our authorization, and
in these situations it may be difficult and or costly for us to enforce our
rights.
We also
devote significant resources to maintaining the security of our products from
malicious hackers who develop and deploy viruses, worms, and other malicious
software programs that attack our products. Nevertheless, actual or perceived
security vulnerabilities in our products could harm our reputation and lead some
customers to seek to return products, to reduce or delay future purchases, to
use competitive products or to make claims against us. Also, with the
introduction of hosted services with some of our product offerings, our
customers may use such services to share confidential and sensitive information.
If a breach of security occurs on these hosted systems, we could be held liable
to our customers. Additionally, such breaches could lead to interruptions,
delays and data loss and protection concerns as well as harm to our
reputation.
We
may not realize the anticipated benefits of past or future acquisitions, and
integration of these acquisitions may disrupt our business and
management.
We have in
the past and may in the future acquire additional companies, products or
technologies. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of an acquisition and
each acquisition has numerous risks. These risks include:
|
•
|
difficulty
in assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired
company;
|
|
•
|
difficulty
in effectively integrating the acquired technologies or products with our
current products and technologies;
|
|
•
|
difficulty
in maintaining controls, procedures and policies during the transition and
integration;
|
|
•
|
disruption
of our ongoing business and distraction of our management and employees
from other opportunities and challenges due to integration
issues;
|
|
•
|
difficulty
integrating the acquired company’s accounting, management information,
human resources and other administrative
systems;
|
|
•
|
inability
to retain key technical and managerial personnel of the acquired
business;
|
|
•
|
inability
to retain key customers, distributors, vendors and other business partners
of the acquired business;
|
|
•
|
inability
to achieve the financial and strategic goals for the acquired and combined
businesses;
|
|
•
|
incurring
acquisition-related costs or amortization costs for acquired intangible
assets that could impact our operating
results;
|
|
•
|
potential
impairment of our relationships with employees, customers, partners,
distributors or third-party providers of technology or
products;
|
|
•
|
potential
failure of the due diligence processes to identify significant issues,
including but not limited to, product quality, architecture and
development, or legal and financial
contingencies;
|
|
•
|
incurring
significant exit charges if products acquired in business combinations are
unsuccessful;
|
|
•
|
potential
inability to assert that internal controls over financial reporting are
effective;
|
|
•
|
potential
inability to obtain, or obtain in a timely manner, approvals from
governmental authorities, which could delay or prevent such acquisitions;
and
|
|
•
|
potential
delay in customer and distributor purchasing decisions due to uncertainty
about the direction of our product
offerings.
|
Mergers
and acquisitions of high technology companies are inherently risky, and
ultimately, if we do not complete the integration of acquired businesses
successfully and in a timely manner, we may not realize the benefits of the
acquisitions to the extent anticipated, which could adversely affect our
business, financial condition or results of operations.
Failure
to manage our sales and distribution channels effectively could result in a loss
of revenue and harm to our business.
We
distribute our application products through distributors, resellers, retailers
and increasingly systems integrators, ISVs and VARs (collectively referred to as
“distributors”). A significant amount of our revenue for application products is
from two distributors, Ingram Micro, Inc. and Tech Data Corporation which
represented 19% and 9% of our net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2008,
respectively. We have multiple non-exclusive, independently negotiated
distribution agreements with Ingram Micro and Tech Data and their subsidiaries
covering our arrangements in specified countries and regions. Each of these
contracts has an independent duration, is independent of any other agreement
(such as a master distribution agreement) and any termination of one agreement
does not affect the status of any of the other agreements. In the second quarter
of fiscal 2008, no single agreement with these distributors was responsible for
over 10% of our total net revenue. If any one of our agreements with these
distributors were terminated, we believe we could make arrangements with new or
existing distributors to distribute our products without a substantial
disruption to our business; however, any prolonged delay in securing a
replacement distributor could have a negative short-term impact on our results
of operations.
Our
distributors also sell our competitors’ products, and if they favor our
competitors’ products for any reason, they may fail to market our products as
effectively or to devote resources necessary to provide effective sales, which
would cause our results to suffer. In addition, the financial health of these
distributors and our continuing relationships with them are important to our
success. Some of these distributors may be unable to withstand adverse changes
in business conditions. Our business could be harmed if the financial condition
of some of these distributors substantially weakens and we were unable to timely
secure a replacement distributor.
We also
sell certain of our products through our direct sales force. Risks associated
with this sales channel include a longer sales cycle associated with direct
sales efforts, difficulty in hiring, retaining and motivating our direct sales
force, and substantial amounts of training for sales representatives, including
regular updates to cover new and upgraded products.
Catastrophic
events may disrupt our business.
We are a
highly automated business and rely on our network infrastructure and enterprise
applications, internal technology systems and our Web site for our development,
marketing, operational, support, hosted services and sales activities. A
disruption or failure of these systems in the event of a major earthquake, fire,
telecommunications failure, cyber-attack, terrorist attack, or other
catastrophic event could cause system interruptions, reputational harm, delays
in our product development and loss of critical data and could prevent us from
fulfilling our customers’ orders. Our corporate
headquarters,
a significant portion of our research and development activities, our data
centers, and certain other critical business operations are located in San Jose,
California, which is near major earthquake faults. We have developed certain
disaster recovery plans and certain backup systems to reduce the potentially
adverse effect of such events, but a catastrophic event that results in the
destruction or disruption of any of our data centers or our critical business or
information technology systems could severely affect our ability to conduct
normal business operations and, as a result, our future operating results could
be adversely affected.
Our
future operating results are difficult to predict and are likely to fluctuate
substantially from quarter to quarter and as a result the market price of our
common stock may be volatile and our stock price could decline.
As a
result of a variety of factors discussed herein, our quarterly revenue and
operating results for a particular period are difficult to predict. Our revenue
may grow at a slower rate than experienced in previous periods and, in
particular periods, may decline. Additionally, we periodically provide operating
model targets. These targets reflect a number of assumptions, including
assumptions about product pricing and demand, economic and seasonal trends,
competitive factors, the mix of shrink-wrap and licensing revenue, full and
upgrade products, distribution channels and geographic markets. If one or more
of these assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially
from those anticipated, estimated or projected.
Due to the
factors noted above, our future earnings and stock price may be subject to
volatility, particularly on a quarterly basis. Shortfalls in revenue or earnings
or delays in the release of products or upgrades compared to analysts’ or
investors’ expectations have caused, and could cause in the future, an immediate
and significant decline in the trading price of our common stock. Additionally,
we may not learn of such shortfalls or delays until late in, or after the end
of, the fiscal quarter, which could result in an even more immediate and greater
decline in the trading price of our common stock. Finally, we participate in a
highly dynamic industry. In addition to factors specific to us, changes in
analysts’ earnings estimates for us or our industry, and factors affecting the
corporate environment, our industry, or the securities markets in general, have
resulted, and may in the future result, in volatility of our common stock
price.
We
are subject to risks associated with international operations which may harm our
business.
We
generate over 50% of our total revenue from sales to customers outside of the
Americas. Sales to these customers subject us to a number of risks,
including:
|
•
|
foreign
currency fluctuations;
|
|
•
|
changes
in government preferences for software
procurement;
|
|
•
|
international
economic and political conditions;
|
|
•
|
unexpected
changes in, or impositions of, international legislative or regulatory
requirements;
|
|
•
|
failure
of foreign laws to protect our intellectual property rights
adequately;
|
|
•
|
inadequate
local infrastructure;
|
|
•
|
delays
resulting from difficulty in obtaining export licenses for certain
technology, tariffs, quotas and other trade barriers and
restrictions;
|
|
•
|
the
burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws, including more
stringent consumer and data protection laws;
and
|
|
•
|
other
factors beyond our control, including terrorism, war, natural disasters
and diseases.
|
If sales
to any of our customers outside of the Americas are delayed or cancelled because
of any of the above factors, our revenue may be negatively
impacted.
In
addition, approximately 42% of our employees are located outside the United
States. This means we have exposure to changes in foreign laws governing our
relationships with our employees, including wage and hour laws and regulations,
fair labor standards, unemployment tax rates, workers’ compensation rates,
citizenship requirements and payroll and other taxes, which likely would have a
direct impact on our operating costs. We also intend to expand our international
operations and international sales and marketing activities. Expansion in
international markets has required, and will continue
to
require, significant management attention and resources. Moreover, local laws
and customs in many countries differ significantly from those in the United
States. We incur additional legal compliance costs associated with our
international operations and could become subject to legal penalties in foreign
countries if we do not comply with local laws and regulations, which may be
substantially different from those in the United States. In many foreign
countries, particularly in those with developing economies, it is common to
engage in business practices that are prohibited by United States regulations
applicable to us such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Although we
implement policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws,
there can be no assurance that all of our employees, contractors and agents, as
well as those companies to which we outsource certain of our business
operations, including those based in or from countries where practices which
violate such United States laws may be customary, will not take actions in
violation of our policies. Any such violation, even if prohibited by our
policies, could have an adverse effect on our business.
We
may incur losses associated with currency fluctuations and may not be able to
effectively hedge our exposure.
Our
operating results are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates. We attempt to mitigate a portion of these risks through foreign currency
hedging, based on our judgment of the appropriate trade-offs among risk,
opportunity and expense. We have established a hedging program to partially
hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations primarily for
the Japanese Yen and the Euro. We regularly review our hedging program and make
adjustments as necessary based on the judgment factors discussed above. Our
hedging activities may not offset more than a portion of the adverse financial
impact resulting from unfavorable movement in foreign currency exchange rates,
which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of
operations.
Changes
in, or interpretations of, accounting principles could result in unfavorable
accounting charges.
We prepare
our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These principles
are subject to interpretation by the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret
and create appropriate accounting principles. A change in these principles can
have a significant effect on our reported results and may even retroactively
affect previously reported transactions. Our accounting principles that recently
have been or may be affected by changes in the accounting principles are as
follows:
|
•
|
software
revenue recognition;
|
|
•
|
accounting
for stock-based compensation;
|
|
•
|
accounting
for income taxes; and
|
|
•
|
accounting
for business combinations and related
goodwill.
|
For
example, in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123
(revised 2004) (“SFAS 123R”), “Share-Based Payment” which requires the
measurement of all stock-based compensation to employees, including grants of
employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of
such expense in our consolidated statements of income. The adoption of
SFAS 123R has had, and will continue to have, a significant adverse effect
on our reported financial results.
We also
adopted FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The adoption of
FIN 48 resulted in an increase to both assets and liabilities in our
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of fiscal 2008 and may
have an adverse effect on our future operating results and financial
position.
If
our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets become impaired we may be required
to record a significant charge to earnings.
Under
GAAP, we review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or
changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at least annually. Factors that
may be considered a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying value
of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets may not be recoverable include
a decline in stock price and market capitalization, future cash flows, and
slower growth rates in our industry. We may be required to record a significant
charge to earnings in our financial statements during the period in which any
impairment of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets is determined,
resulting in an impact on our results of operations. For example, our Mobile and
Device Solutions segment, which primarily consists of assets acquired in the
Macromedia acquisition, is in an emerging market with high growth potential. We
recently announced the Open Screen Project. As part of the project, we will be
removing the license fees on the next major releases of Adobe Flash Player and
Adobe AIR for devices. Accordingly, we would expect revenue from this segment to
decrease following the next major release of these products scheduled for fiscal
2009. Although we would expect this decrease to be offset in time by an
increased demand for tooling products, server technologies, hosted services and
applications, if future revenue or revenue
forecasts
for this segment do not meet our expectations, we may be required to record a
charge to earnings reflecting an impairment of this recorded goodwill or
intangible assets.
Changes
in, or interpretations of, tax rules and regulations may adversely affect our
effective tax rates.
Unanticipated
changes in our tax rates could affect our future results of operations. Our
future effective tax rates could be unfavorably affected by changes in, or
interpretation of, tax rules and regulations, by unanticipated decreases in the
amount of revenue or earnings in countries with low statutory tax rates, by
lapses of the availability of the U.S. research and development tax credit, or
by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and
liabilities.
In
addition, we are subject to the continual examination of our income tax returns
by the IRS and other domestic and foreign tax authorities, including a current
examination by the IRS for our fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003 tax returns, primarily
related to our intercompany transfer pricing. We regularly assess the likelihood
of outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our
provision for income taxes and have reserved for potential adjustments that may
result from the current examination. We believe such estimates to be reasonable;
however, there can be no assurance that the final determination of any of these
examinations will not have an adverse effect on our operating results and
financial position.
If
we are unable to recruit and retain key personnel our business may be
harmed.
Much of
our future success depends on the continued service and availability of our
senior management. These individuals have acquired specialized knowledge and
skills with respect to Adobe. The loss of any of these individuals could harm
our business. Our business is also dependent on our ability to retain, hire and
motivate talented, highly skilled personnel. Experienced personnel in the
information technology industry are in high demand and competition for their
talents is intense, especially in the Bay Area, where many of our employees are
located. We have relied on our ability to grant equity compensation as one
mechanism for recruiting and retaining such highly skilled personnel. Recently
enacted accounting regulations requiring the expensing of equity compensation
may impair our ability to provide these incentives without incurring significant
compensation costs. If we are unable to continue to successfully attract and
retain key personnel, our business may be harmed.
Our
investment portfolio may become impaired by further deterioration of the capital
markets.
Our cash
equivalent and short-term investment portfolio as of May 30, 2008 consisted of
US treasury securities, bonds of government agencies, obligations of foreign
governments, corporate bonds and taxable money market mutual funds. We follow an
established investment policy and set of guidelines to monitor, manage and limit
our exposure to interest rate and credit risk. The policy sets forth credit
quality standards and limits our exposure to any one issuer, as well as our
maximum exposure to various asset classes.
As a
result of current adverse financial market conditions, investments in some
financial instruments, such as structured investment vehicles, sub-prime
mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations, may pose risks
arising from liquidity and credit concerns. As of May 30, 2008, we had no direct
holdings in these categories of investments and our indirect exposure to these
financial instruments through our holdings in money market mutual funds was
immaterial. As of May 30, 2008, we had no impairment charge associated with our
short-term investment portfolio relating to such adverse financial market
conditions. Although we believe our current investment portfolio has very little
risk of impairment, we cannot predict future market conditions or market
liquidity and can provide no assurance that our investment portfolio will remain
unimpaired.
We
may suffer losses from our equity investments which could harm our
business.
We have
investments and plan to continue to make future investments in privately-held
companies, many of which are considered in the start-up or development stages.
These investments are inherently risky, as the market for the technologies or
products these companies have under development is typically in the early stages
and may never materialize. Our investment activities can impact our net income.
Future price fluctuations in these securities and any significant long-term
declines in value of any of our investments could reduce our net income in
future periods.
We
rely on turnkey assemblers and any adverse change in our relationship with our
turnkey assemblers could result in a loss of revenue and harm our
business.
We
currently rely on six turnkey assemblers of our products, with at least two
turnkeys located in each major region we serve. If any significant turnkey
assembler terminates its relationship with us, or if our supply from any
significant turnkey assembler is interrupted or terminated for any other reason,
we may not have enough time or be able to replace the supply of products
replicated by that turnkey assembler to avoid serious harm to our
business.

Stock
Repurchase Program I
|
In
December 1997, our Board of Directors authorized Stock Repurchase Program I
which is not subject to expiration. However, this repurchase program is limited
to covering net dilution from stock issuances and is subject to business
conditions and cash flow requirements as determined by our Board of Directors
from time to time.
Stock
Repurchase Program II
In April
2007, our Board of Directors authorized Stock Repurchase Program II which is not
subject to expiration. Under Stock Repurchase Program II, we have authorization
to repurchase in aggregate up to 20.0 million shares of our common stock.
In November 2007, the Board of Directors approved a 30.0 million share
increase to Stock Repurchase Program II. This increased the authorization under
this program from the original 20.0 million shares to 50.0 million
shares.
(2)
|
All
shares were purchased as part of publicly announced
plans.
|
(3)
|
Additional
109.0 million shares were issued for the acquisition of Macromedia
which accounted for the majority of the repurchase
authorization.
|
(4)
|
The
repurchases from employees represent shares cancelled when surrendered in
lieu of cash payments for withholding taxes
due.
|
(5)
|
Adjustment
of authority to reflect changes in the dilution from outstanding shares
and options.
|
(6)
|
The
remaining authorization for the ongoing stock repurchase program is
determined by combining all stock issuances, net of any cancelled,
surrendered or exchanged shares less all stock repurchases under the
ongoing plan, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal
1998.

At our
Annual Meeting of Stockholders, held on April 9, 2008, our stockholders
