A Source for Historical Earnings?

I just got an email from a friend who’s looking for “Adobe’s historical earnings and growth since the 1980′s”. I’m at a loss as to where he can find that info, aside from digging through Adobe’s site. If anybody knows of a source for that kind of info please let me know.

    Services like Reuters, First Call, Compustat and Zacks have this historical data. It’ll cost you to get it, though. I’m not aware of any free source of such data.

    Any one of these firms should be willing to give you a “custom” data set for ADBE — for a price.

    Have you tried emailing Adobe Investor Relations? The worst that could happen is they say they can’t help you… and they just might give you your data.

    Go to the library and dig out a copy of Value Line — they will have at least 15 years of sales and earnings data on Adobe.

    I’ll email you a .pdf that has the data back through 1988.
