Adobe Systems Inc. (ADBE) stock declined 1.46 percent to $33.16 in the pre-market trading. FBR Capital Markets downgraded its rating on shares of Adobe to underperform from market perform and lowered its price target to $28 from $33. Our downgrade is mainly predicated on two items: we believe the company’s flagship offering, Creative Suite (CS), is losing its ability to drive Adobe’s business, and we don’t see much to materially offset this; and we believe the company’s model is stuck, and its efforts to drive more recurring revenue will be difficult, said David Hilal, an analyst at FBR Capital Markets.
