BofA Securities upgraded Adobe Systems (NASDAQ:) to Buy from Neutral and raised its price target to $630.00 from $575.00, given the company’s potential to harness AI for substantial additional revenue in FY24.

"Adobe is ahead of the curve, and we believe that AI offerings (such as generative AI-powered content creation tool Firefly) are likely to begin driving meaningful revenue/FCF upside as soon as FY24."

The bank identifies several potential avenues for AI monetization, such as (1) offering paid subscriptions for Firefly, (2) selling credit packs for Firefly usage, and (3) establishing custom agreements with global brands to integrate data and LLMs with Adobe's services.
