Adobe Inc., classified in the Technology sector, is a listed company based in San Jose, United States, founded in 1982. Its insiders report their share dealings to SEC (Form 4). Between 18 October 2025 and 18 October 2026, 22 insiders published 208 filings.
Open-market activity splits into 1 purchase and 20 sales totalling €43.8M; 1 insider sit on the buying side and 3 insiders on the selling side. No amount is published for 1 filing, which the totals therefore leave out. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. Narayen Shantanu filed the largest sale, €10.7M, on 30 April 2026, which represents 0.014% of the company's market value. The buyers include 1 senior executive.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 5,458 companies) published 22 filings over the same period, against 208 filings here. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 7 purchases against 113 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 28 November 2025 shows 23.77 bn USD of revenue and 7.13 bn USD of net income.
The last insider purchase was made public on 26 June 2026, 113 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify.
In the same sector, recent insider purchases at Gitlab Inc. and Baozun Inc. also feature in our signals. Every figure here comes from the filings published by SEC (Form 4) and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.
Entry is the close on the day after publication, the first price a reader could act on. Prices in the listing currency. Past moves are not a forecast.

This score ranks the purchase within its own market. A position size is suggested only on the venues of the backtested strategy universe; elsewhere, signals stay on watch. Not investment advice.

Adobe Inc. (ticker: ADBE) is a leading U.S. software company listed on the NASDAQ market in the United States. Founded in 1982 by John Warnock and Charles Geschke, Adobe first built its reputation in digital publishing with PostScript and later became one of the most influential names in professional creative software through Photoshop, PDF, and Acrobat. The company is headquartered in San Jose, California, which has long served as its main engineering, product, and corporate base.
Adobe’s business is organized around three major pillars. Creative Cloud serves creative professionals, agencies, and enterprises with industry-standard tools for imaging, design, video, and content production, including Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Lightroom, Express, and the Firefly family. Document Cloud centers on Acrobat, PDF workflows, e-signatures, and document productivity. Experience Cloud targets marketing and digital experience teams with analytics, personalization, content orchestration, commerce, and customer experience measurement tools. Taken together, these platforms place Adobe at the intersection of content creation, document productivity, and digital marketing software.
From a competitive standpoint, Adobe benefits from a globally recognized brand, a broad software ecosystem, and high user loyalty. It is widely viewed as a category leader in creative software and digital documents, while Experience Cloud gives it a strong position in enterprise marketing technology and customer experience management. Adobe’s long-standing shift to a subscription model also provides recurring revenue characteristics and greater business visibility than a traditional license-based software business.
Recent developments underscore Adobe’s strategic push into generative and agentic AI. In spring 2026, the company unveiled new Firefly capabilities, including a conversational creative assistant, and introduced new AI-powered features in Acrobat and Photoshop. Adobe also announced a strategic partnership with NVIDIA to strengthen next-generation Firefly models and expand creative and marketing workflows. These initiatives highlight Adobe’s effort to defend and extend its leadership in AI-assisted creation while broadening its enterprise use cases. For investors, Adobe remains a high-quality technology name tied to secular growth themes in digital content, document productivity, and marketing automation.
