Hey Dennis, I think those graphs are pretty interesting, especially the first one. I am a Creative Cloud subscriber, and I love it, but that $50 per month fee may be a bit hard to swallow when that year is up. I don’t know what I’m going to do yet, but if somehow it remains $30 per month, I think you’d have an ongoing subscription (from me at least) for much, much longer.

Adobe passes one million Creative Cloud subscribers, rolls out collaborative tools
https://www.theverge.com/2012/12/11/3754444/adobe-creative-cloud-one-million-subscribersAdobe has announced that over one million people have signed up for its Creative Cloud platform. Approximately 326,000 are paid subscribers of the service
Hmm, why the difference between “signed up” and “paid subscribers?”

Craig,
My math is coming out as ~50m revenue for Creative Cloud out of over 1billion revenue this quarter.
What’s their main revenue?

Adobe has guided that for Q4 2012 it expects revenue of $1.07-$1.12 billion and diluted EPS in the range of $0.34-$0.39 on a GAAP basis and $0.53-$0.58 on a non-GAAP basis.
And they say Photoshop and Creative software is “48% of the stock price.” It’s not clear how they calculate that.
This chart has some of their analysis.

Craig,
Yes, I saw some of that. “Percent of stock price” sounds like crazy voodoo to me though. I was wondering if you knew a sketch of revenue breakdown from past reports.

Their links are a bit funky but if you use this and click on Revenue I assume those are real numbers through 2012 (or last Q of 2012 is estimate until Dec 13).

Craig,
Thanks … got it.
That breakdown shows Photoshop and “other creative software” as just over 50% of revenue.
Which would mean that while Creative Cloud generated ~50m this quarter, other “creative software” sales did more than 500m in the same period.
Or my math is wrong.
Franz.
