Adobe's **short-term investments** dropped sharply in Q4 2024 primarily due to significant maturities and sales activities. Specifically, there were notable **maturities**—with proceeds from maturities amounting to **$486 million** and purchases only totaling **$59 million**—which led to a substantial decrease in the investment balance from **$701 million** at the end of Q4 2023 to **$273 million** in Q4 2024.  **[0000796343-25-000004_adbe-20241129.htm:83]** **[0000796343-25-000004_adbe-20241129.htm:87]** **[0000796343-25-000004_adbe-20241129.htm:77]** 

Why did Short-term investments drop so sharply in Q4 2024?

Adobe's dramatic increase in long-term debt in Q2 2024 was driven primarily by **new senior note issuances** and the **reclassification of existing debt**. In April 2024, Adobe issued **$500 million** of 4.85% notes (due April 2027), **$750 million** of 4.80% notes (due April 2029), and **$750 million** of 4.95% notes (due April 2034), which significantly increased the overall debt balance. Additionally, existing 2025 Notes were reclassified from long-term to current debt because they became due in February 2025, impacting the carrying value of long-term debt. This combination of new issuances and reclassification explains the substantial change in the long-term debt reported in Q2 2024.  **[0000796343-24-000150_adbe-20240531.htm:21]** **[0000796343-24-000065_adbe-20240301.htm:20]** 

What drove the dramatic increase in long-term debt in Q2 2024?

Adobe's boost in cash and cash equivalents in Q2 2024 was primarily driven by **robust operating performance**, as the company generated **$1,940 million** in net cash from operating activities by adjusting for non-cash items and strong collections on trade receivables.  **[0000796343-24-000150_adbe-20240531.htm:36]** **[0000796343-24-000140_adbeex991q224.htm:4]**  In addition, **$111 million** was contributed through net cash provided by investing activities, largely due to maturities and sales of short-term investments.  **[0000796343-24-000140_adbeex991q224.htm:4]**  Although financing activities reflected a net cash use of **$642 million**—including substantial stock repurchases offset by proceeds from debt issuance—and a minor **$3 million** negative impact from foreign exchange changes, the overall inflows from operations and investing were sufficient to boost Adobe's cash and cash equivalents in Q2 2024.  **[0000796343-24-000140_adbeex991q224.htm:4]** 

What factors contributed to the boost in cash and cash equivalents in Q2 2024?
