The analysis of the provided quarterly financial ratios reveals several notable trends over the periods from early 2019 through mid-2025.
- Price to Earnings (P/E) Ratio
- The P/E ratio data begins from the quarter ending February 28, 2020. It exhibits a general downward trend from a peak of 58.43 in November 2019 (interpolated from close timepoints) to a low of approximately 23.93 by August 30, 2024. Notably, the ratio showed some fluctuations with intermittent increases such as the rise to 49.64 in March 2024 following a prior decrease. This pattern may indicate variability in earnings growth expectations or stock price adjustments over time, with valuation multiples becoming more conservative toward the later periods.
- Price to Operating Profit (P/OP) Ratio
- Similar to P/E, the P/OP ratio data starts from around February 28, 2020. The ratio exhibits a significant decline from a high of around 56.53 in November 2019 to a lower level near 20 by May 30, 2025. The decrease is fairly steady with minor short-term rebounds, particularly noticeable near March 2023 and March 2024. The progressive reduction in P/OP may suggest that the market is assigning lower multiples to Adobe’s operating profits, possibly reflecting changing market sentiment or improving operating profits without proportionate stock price increases.
- Price to Sales (P/S) Ratio
- The P/S ratio follows a similar trajectory with data starting from February 28, 2020. It declined from highs of about 18.15 to levels near 7.27 by August 30, 2024, indicating a marked decrease in the valuation placed on each dollar of sales. This steady decline signals a potential reduction in investor expectations regarding revenue growth or profit margins, or alternatively, an increase in revenue that outpaces stock price growth over the period analyzed.
- Price to Book Value (P/BV) Ratio
- Data for the P/BV ratio is available from March 1, 2019. The ratio initially fluctuates in the range of approximately 13 to 20, peaking around mid-2021, then exhibits a decline reaching lows near 9.1 by September 2, 2022. Afterwards, the ratio shows some recovery towards values closer to 14 by late 2024. This pattern suggests that the market's valuation relative to book value experienced volatility with a notable dip possibly reflecting changes in the company's net asset valuations or market dynamics, followed by a moderate rebound.
Overall, the valuation multiples show a general decline over the examined time horizon from early 2019 through mid-2025, with the most pronounced decreases observed in P/E, P/OP, and P/S ratios. The P/BV ratio depicts greater volatility and a partial recovery toward the end of the period. These trends could indicate shifting investor sentiment with more conservative valuation levels possibly due to evolving company fundamentals, market conditions, or macroeconomic factors affecting growth expectations and profitability assessments.

The financial data reveals several noteworthy trends in the company's market valuation and earnings performance over the analyzed periods.
- Share Price
- The share price demonstrated considerable volatility throughout the observed timeframe. Initially, from March 2019 to November 2019, the price increased from approximately $262 to $350, indicating a strong upward momentum.
- After peaking, the price showed fluctuations with a notable rise in mid-2021 reaching around $585 before experiencing a significant decline through late 2022 to early 2023, falling below $300.
- Subsequent quarters reflected a recovery trend with the price climbing back up to near $596 in December 2023, followed by a moderate decrease in early to mid-2024, ending near $388 by May 2025.
- Earnings per Share (EPS)
- EPS values were available starting from February 2020 and showed a generally upward trajectory. Initially at 6.12, EPS increased steadily reaching a peak of 16.19 by May 2025.
- This consistent growth in earnings per share indicates improving profitability and operational efficiency over the period. Minor fluctuations appear but do not disrupt the overall positive trend.
- Price to Earnings Ratio (P/E)
- P/E ratios exhibited substantial variation with early values near 57 in early 2020, dropping and oscillating in the 40s and 50s range during 2020 and 2021.
- From late 2021 onward, the P/E ratio declined notably, reaching the low 20s by May 2025. This decline may reflect a market reassessment of growth expectations, with share prices adjusting relative to earnings.
- The decreasing P/E combined with increasing EPS suggests that while the company's profitability has improved, the market's valuation premium over earnings has compressed potentially due to shifting investor sentiment or broader market conditions.
Overall, the financial data indicates a growing profitability profile accompanied by fluctuating market valuation levels, with share price volatility and decreasing P/E ratios signaling changing investor expectations despite improving earnings performance.

The data reveals several key trends in share price, operating profit per share, and their relative valuation metric (P/OP) over a series of quarterly periods.
- Share Price Trend
- The share price shows notable volatility with phases of both growth and decline. It began around $262 in early 2019, surging to a peak near $470 through mid to late 2020. Following this peak, the price declined markedly during 2022, falling from approximately $460 to a low near $281. The price then recovered steadily throughout 2023, reaching highs above $590 before a moderate decline in early 2024 to roughly $388. This pattern reflects cycles of strong appreciation followed by partial corrections, indicating fluctuating market sentiment or external factors impacting the valuation.
- Operating Profit Per Share
- Operating profit per share shows a consistent upward trajectory throughout the periods available. Starting from approximately $6.78 in early 2020, it gradually increased each quarter, reaching nearly $19.38 by mid-2025. This steady growth implies improving operational efficiency or revenue growth relative to share count, suggesting a strengthening of the company’s underlying profitability over time.
- Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
- The P/OP ratio displays a decreasing trend initially from over 50 early in the data series down to about 21 by mid-2025. This decline indicates the share price appreciation was outpaced by gains in operating profit per share, resulting in a lower valuation multiple. The ratio fluctuates in some periods but the general decline hints at a market reassessment of price premium relative to operating earnings, potentially reflecting higher earnings confidence or market adjustment to valuation norms.
Overall, the data indicates a company experiencing rising operating profitability paired with share price volatility. The decline in P/OP ratio over time suggests the market may be increasingly valuing the company on fundamental earnings rather than speculative price levels. This could imply greater financial stability or matured market expectations.

The analyzed data reveals several notable trends over the reported quarters concerning share price, sales per share, and the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio.
- Share Price
- The share price exhibits a general upward trend from early 2019 through late 2021, rising from approximately $262 to a peak near $586 in mid-2021. This signifies a strong appreciation over this period. However, from that peak, a decline follows with the share price dropping to about $281 by the third quarter of 2022. Thereafter, the share price experiences a moderate recovery, increasing to roughly $596 by the end of 2023 before descending again in the first half of 2024 to a value near $388. This pattern suggests notable volatility with periods of rapid growth interspersed with marked corrections.
- Sales per Share
- Sales per share data starts from the first quarter of 2020, showing a steady and consistent upward trajectory throughout the entire period analyzed. It advances from $23.17 in early 2020 to $53.28 by mid-2025, indicating a near doubling of sales per share over five years. This steady increase underscores continuous revenue growth on a per-share basis, reflecting positive operational performance.
- Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
- The P/S ratio shows significant fluctuation over time. It begins at 15.11 in early 2020, decreases to a minimum near 7.27 by mid-2025, with intermittent peaks such as 19.39 and 18.20 occurring in 2021. The consistent decline in the P/S ratio despite rising sales per share suggests that the market valuation relative to sales has become more conservative over time. This could imply that share price increases have not matched the pace of sales growth in recent years, possibly reflecting changing market expectations or valuation adjustments.
Overall, the data indicates robust sales growth alongside fluctuating share prices, with market valuation multiples showing a declining trend. This pattern points to evolving investor sentiment and valuation benchmarks despite improving sales performance.

- BVPS showed a steady upward trajectory from $20.23 in March 2019 to a peak of $36.54 in September 2023, suggesting consistent accumulation of equity over time. After this peak, BVPS diminished gradually to $26.99 by May 2025, reflecting either asset depreciation, share buybacks, or dividend distributions impacting equity value per share negatively.
- Price-to-Book Value (P/BV) Ratio Patterns
- The P/BV ratio reflected considerable variation, generally moving in line with share price changes but tempered by BVPS growth. Starting at 12.97 in March 2019, it climbed to a high exceeding 20 around mid-2021, driven by pronounced share price increases. This was followed by a decline to approximately 9.10 by September 2022, corresponding with the share price correction phase. Subsequent recovery saw the ratio ascend again to around 16.31 by December 2023, before moderate decreases to about 14.36 by May 2025.
- Overall Financial Insights
- The combined assessment shows that share price fluctuations were more pronounced compared to the steady but slower-moving BVPS changes. The P/BV ratio's volatility highlights shifts in market sentiment and valuation multiples, with price reacting strongly to external and internal factors while the underlying book value indicated continuous but moderate growth. The later decline in both share price and BVPS towards the end of the period might suggest either broader market corrections or company-specific challenges impacting perceived and intrinsic value.
