Adobe Sustainability Social Report

2 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report A message from our CEO As Adobe approaches its 40th anniversary, we have the opportunity to reflect on our impact and our purpose. Ov er the past four decades, our innovations have touched bi llions of lives across the globe. I’m incredibly proud of the im pact our technologies have had on every aspect of so ciety: from desktop publishing and imaging to electronic documents, video and gaming to digital marketing and commerce. It is humbling to think that the digital world runs on Adobe’s tools and platforms. Ad obe’s mission—to Change the Wo rld Through Digital Experiences— is more relevant than ever as we look ahead to the next decade. At A dobe, we believe that it is not just what y ou do, bu t how you do i t that matters. We have always been committed to building a company that does the right thing by focusing on pe ople, purpose and community. This core set of values has gu ided our evolution and growth over the past four decades and inspires our over 25,000 emp loyees around the world to f ocus on having more impact and inventing the future. Cor e to our purpose are three areas where we are uniquely po sitioned and motivated to make a difference: Adobe for All; Cr eativity for All; and Technology to Transform. Adobe for All: We believe that everyone deserves equal treatment and opportunity and that the best way to drive change is to start within Adobe, by building a diverse and inclusive culture that represents and celebrates different perspectives. Greater representation leads to a virtuous cycle of more role models, advancement, growth and meaningful innovations for our customers and communities. We continue to be a leader in pay parity, and we are committed to growing our talent pipeline and increasing global diversity across the company and in leadership positions. As part of our ongoing efforts to prepare students from diverse backgrounds with strong technology and creativity skills, Adobe established partnerships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Hispanic-serving Institutions (HSIs). Each university received a US$1 million donation from Adobe as part of our newly launched Anchor School Program to prepare students for jobs in the technology and creative industries. In the last year we have focused on supporting the protection and advancement of equal access to opportunities for marginalized and underrepresented groups. As a first step in this effort, Adobe, with financial support from the Adobe Foundation, launched a 3-year Equity and Advancement Initiative with 11 leading global Non- Governmental Organizations (NGOs), including OutRightAction International, Human Rights Watch and Equal Justice Initiative, that will seek to address systemic barriers to opportunity and advance social equity. Through this model, the Adobe Foundation and the company are making long-term, strategic commitments and investing a minimum of US$20M over three years to provide meaningful partnership opportunities, learning experiences for employees and new ways of leveraging Adobe’s unique strengths in support of issues key to Adobe and our communities.

3 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report A message from our CEO Creativity for All: We believe everyone is creative and has the right to share their story, which will create a richer world for all of us. We are committed to leading the way in empowering creators of all ages and backgrounds to access the tools, skills and platforms they need to express themselves, reach their full potential and share their unique and diverse perspectives with the world. As part of our longstanding commitment to creating greater opportunities for all, we have much to be proud of over the last year: our work with Sundance Ignite empowering talented young filmmakers from around the world with mentorship and support to pursue the next step in their careers; our Diverse Voices platform showcasing stories of diverse creators from a spectrum of disciplines; our Khan Academy partnership providing millions of students throughout the world with high-quality educational resources and fluency in creative skills; our Creative Residency program that has supported hundreds of creators from 45 countries through resources, mentorship and grants to bring their creative projects to life; and the many schools and organizations globally that we enable with our products. We are using our platform to give everyone the opportunity to tell their stories. Technology to Transform: As one of the world’s most in novative software companies with products that touch billions of people, we must take the impact of our technology as seriously as the d evelopment of the technology itself. As we continue to br ing transformational technologies to market, we are committed to a dvancing the responsible use of technology for the good of so ciety. Our innovations are making a significant impact through a reas such as Content Authenticity, AI Ethics, Privacy & Security and Digital L i teracy. We a re leading the Content Authent icity Initiative (CAI) with numerous partners in hardware, software, publishing and social m edia, establishing the standard for transparency and attribution ac ross the entire content ecosystem and helping to bring more tr ust to media. We believe AI has the power to amplify human in telligence, creativity and ingenuity to create exceptional digital ex periences, and we’re committed to advancing AI Ethics in a re sponsible and inclusive way. In 2021, Adobe helped develop BS A's Framework to Build Trust in AI alongside other industry leaders. Adobe’s Privacy by Design approach proactively incorporates certified security and privacy controls that meet or exceed regulations into our product development. Sus tainability: We are committed to achieving a zero-carbon operational footprint, developing digital products that enable our customers and communities to drive positive environmental impact and working with our peers, partners and employees to foster a culture of sustainability. We have demonstrated leadership in energy efficiency and renewable energy practices through the adoption of leading Science-Based Targets and a 100% renewable energy target by 2035 to add more renewable energy to our grid. More than 80% of our office space around the world is LEED or green building certified, and we look forward to the grand opening of our fully electric office tower at our San Jose headquarters later this year. As we look to our 40-year anniversary, I am proud of the continued industry recognition we receive as a great and equitable place to work. We are steadfast in our commitment to our people, our customers and our purpose to harness the best of Adobe toward making a significant, positive impact across the globe for years to come. Sincerely, Shantanu Narayen Chairman & CEO, Adobe Inc.

5 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Adobe for All We believe that everyone deserves equal treatment and opportunity, and that when people feel appreciated and included, they can be more creative, innovative and successful. We call this vision Adobe For All, and we’re working to achieve it through a variety of programs and initiatives. Inclusive recruitment In 2021, we established partnerships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) as well as Hispanic-serving Institutions (HSIs) through our Anchor School Program . Each university received a US$1 million donation from Adobe to help prepare students for jobs in the technology and creative industries. We also continued our Hiring at Adobe program to strengthen our hiring processes, and our Diversity Talent Acquisition team stayed focused on recruiting candidates from underrepresented groups. Employee experience In 2021, we continued to support our eight employee networks that build community for employees from underrepresented groups, including the new Indigenous & First Nations at Adobe ERG. We launched a global employee allyship program, and we continued to invest in the Taking Action Initiative to accelerate the representation and success of Adobe’s Black and underrepresented employees. We continued our weeklong global D&I event bringing thousands of employees together to focus on ways to strengthen inclusion and empathy every day. Pay parity We’re committed to fair compensation, and we invest in analysis and transparency to ensure that we’re on track. We define pay parity as ensuring that employees in the same job and location are paid fairly regardless of their gender or ethnicity. In 2021, we again achieved global gender pay parity and pay parity between URM* and non-URM employees in the US. *Underrepresented minorities (URM) are defined as US employees who identify as Black/African- American, Hispanic/Latinx, Native American, Pacific Islander, and/or two or more races. Looking ahead We’ve set goals to increase representation of women in leadership positions to 30% globally by 2025, to double US URM in leadership positions by 2025, and to double Black representation as a percentage of US employees by 2025. Our diverse representation has been moving in a positive direction year over year, but we still have work to do. Diversity metrics 33.8 % global representation of women 10.9 % URM representation i n the US 1:1 global gender pay parity (women/men) and US racial/ethnic pay parity (URM/non-URM) Ad ditional information and diversit y metrics are available at www.adobe.com/diversity.html See additional details in Adobe’s FY 2021 D&I Year in Review .

6 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Equity and Advancement Initiative In the last year, we’ve focused on protecting and advancing equal access to opportunities for historically marginalized and underrepresented groups. We’ve also begun evolving the way we fund and engage with nonprofit organizations that align with these goals, because we’re committed to creating a greater impact while supporting the learning and development of both the nonprofits’ leaders and our own employees. This is an opportunity to integrate grantmaking with corporate programs and employee involvement for larger impact. As a first step, with financial support from the Adobe Foundation, we launched a 3-year Equity and Advancement Initiative with 11 leading Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). The initiative seeks to address systemic barriers to opportunity and advance social equity . Through this model, the Adobe Foundation and the company are making long-term, strategic commitments and donating a minimum of US$20 million USD over 3 years to provide meaningful partnership opportunities, learning experiences for employees, and new ways of leveraging our unique strengths in support of issues key to Adobe and our communities . We're excited by the opportunity to think differently about grantmaking, discover new approaches to partnering, and elevate diverse new voices in the fight for equality. Artwork by Kirsten Ulve

7 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Diverse Voices At Adobe, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to share their creativity. We want to break down barriers that stand in the way, especially for emerging and underrepresented creators like Black, Latinx, Asian and Pacific Islander, LGBTQ+, and female- identifying artists and storytellers. Our Diverse Voices initiative highlights the stories of underrepresented creators, providing a single destination for inspiration, education, and connection. As part of this effort, we’ve used Adobe channels to elevate creators through the following programs: Women Create Creativity from women inspires creativity in women. Our Women Create Wednesday series tells the stories of inspiring women across industries, cultures, and geographies, and it garnered 10 million views in 2021. We also collaborated with Marie Claire to launch their first ever Creators issue—a special-edition magazine that highlights female-identifying creatives including designers, directors, influencers, and entrepreneurs. Create Change This conversational digital series brings together diverse creators from a spectrum of disciplines to share how they're using creativity to find inspiration and make an impact in the world. Thirty-six creators have participated across three seasons—including Lena Waithe, Hunter Schafer, Michaela Jae, America Ferrera, Wanda Sykes, and Cleo Wade—and special editions have celebrated Pride and Hispanic Heritage Month. The series garnered 33 million views as of July 2021. Sundance Ignite Adobe was a founding supporter of the Sundance Ignite Program in 2015 and has been an integral partner since. Each year, the Sundance Ignite x Adobe Fellowship invites 10 emerging filmmakers between the ages of 18–25 to participate in this year-long program, which includes an unrestricted grant, bespoke mentorship and support, and a trip to the Sundance Film Festival. Building on the success of the Sundance Ignite program, the Women at Sundance | Adobe Fellowship was created in 2020 to support women artists who are creating bold new work in diverse disciplines. In 2021, we continued our commitment to emerging filmmakers through the Sundance Ignite and Women at Sundance | Adobe Fellowships. Our sponsorship of Sundance Ignite made the 2022 Sundance Film Festival accessible to young film fans. Ignite Day Presented by Adobe had a great turnout for the panel Pathway to the First Feature and the screening of the 2021 Sundance Ignite x Adobe winning films.

8 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Diverse Voices Creators in ComplexLand Adobe joined Complex Networks’ inaugural ComplexLand virtual festival in December 2020 to highlight five emerging Black creators, putting their work on full display throughout the five-day digital experience. Bria Nicole , Philip Kaiten , Juan Veloz , Justine Mangum of Winnie Weston , and Dana Scruggs all showcased their work within the Adobe Creativity Space, garnering over 1 million views, 138,000 visits, and 230,000 engagements. When I See Black For the next generation of Black creators, seeing themselves and the full spectrum of Black creativity is crucial. We’re proud to share When I See Black , an homage to the spectrum of the Black experience that’s told through the eyes and voices of Black creators and set to Gregory Porter’s track, Revival . The piece features artwork from Esther Luntadila , Crystal Kayiza , Temi Coker , Barr y Yusufu , Devin Wesley , Aurélia Durand , Shani Crowe , Yannis Guibinga , Asia Hall , Lawrence Agyei , Ismail Zaidy , and Joshua Kissi , and it’s been shown across Hulu with 59 million impressions as of December 2020. Where I’m From Where I’m From explores the rich and varied stories that arise from answering the question: “Where are you from?” In this film, Asian and Pacific Islander (API) artists flip the script on this all-too-common question. The piece included eight API artists— Nishat Akhtar , Meiko Arquillos , Shyama Golden , Rebecca Hsu , Shxpir Huang , Hanna Lee Joshi , Don Muna , and Jiaqi Wang — who embrace their roots, lay claim to their myriad identities, and show how their creativity is inspired by their one-of-a-kind experiences. The film has garnered over 1 million views and was featured on Hypebeast, where it has had 19.5 million impressions. I Made a Film Film has the power to shape culture, politics, and social norms, but that can’t happen without a diverse set of voices. I Made a Film , a short film with over 400,000 views as of November 2021 and 29 million impressions on Vanity Fair , put the spotlight on three Sundance Ignite Fellows— Mariales Diaz , Sean Wang , and Zenzele Ojore . Part of a new wave of independent filmmakers who infuse their work with the vibrant textures of their communities and heritages, these artists represent the next generation of storytellers, and Adobe is proud to be part of their journey.

9 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Empowering creativity The National Geographic Society and Adobe are collaborating to offer a series of free online courses that support digital literacy and teach creative storytelling to the next generation. As students and educators have become accustomed to online education, our on-demand Photography, Video, Audio, and Graphics courses have continued to grow in popularity. We’re proud of the recent announcement that the Storytelling for Impact courses created in partnership with the National Geographic Society will win Gold at the 2022 Anthem Awards in the Product, Innovation, or Service (Not-for-Profit) category. 28,000+ registrations in the first six months after the program launch Photo by Ryan Hill Adobe is proud to be Khan Academy’s official creativity partner. As part of a multi-year agreement, we’re working together to provide students with high-quality educational resources and fluency in creative skills. Our Teach Creativity with Adobe and Khan Academy course supports teachers’ professional development, giving them access to over 20 hours of training and offering a certificate for completion. 2.8 million+ students supported around the world through this effort

10 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Adobe Changemakers Adobe celebrates customers, creatives, and partners who use our solutions to create positive social and environmental impact to build a better world. Watch the video 100cameras 100cameras works with youth around the world who’ve had challenging experiences and teaches them how to process and tell their stories through photography. Adobe partnered with 100cameras in 2021 to create virtual and in-person photography workshops that will benefit youth and classrooms in more than 65 countries. We also jointly launched an exclusive Adobe Stock Premium image collection that aims to amplify these diverse young voices, with 100% of proceeds going back to 100cameras to fund participant community needs. Photo by Elle Wildha gen for 100cameras, 2019 American Red Cross In 2021, Adobe recognized American Red Cross with an Adobe Experience Maker Changemaker award for revolutionizing customer experience to drive social impact. American Red Cross uses Adobe Experience Cloud to make it easier for people to sign up to donate blood and save lives. The nonprofit also uses the platform to provide real-time performance metrics when volunteers are working in disaster areas, helping them respond more effectively. We’re humbled that our work with American Red Cross helps increase the organization’s ability to serve communities across the country. Stock Photography by Marko Kokic/American Red Cross TSB Bank By improving self-service forms for customers with Adobe Sign, TSB Bank has reduced paper consumption by 7,000 pages per day and eliminated as many as 15,000 face-to-face visits to branches over 2 months. These wins have contributed to TSB’s Scope 3 savings, helping the company reduce the environmental impact of its value chain through actions such as reducing carbon emissions from transport.

11 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Adobe Changemakers Spotlight: Readability Reading is foundational to acquiring knowledge and sharing ideas, but most people can’t read with proficiency. In fact, a majority of adults in the US ages 16 to 74 lack proficiency in literacy, reading below a 6th-grade level, and the first year of the pandemic brought the number of children who struggle with reading up to 500 million worldwide. Adobe’s Readability Initiative is helping address this worldwide problem through targeted research, product development, and partnerships with University of Central Florida, Readability Matters, World Education, and more. Liquid Mode in the Adobe Acrobat Reader app was the first step in delivering better readability for all—and there are more innovations on the horizon. Enlisted Design Recognized by Fast Company as one of the top design firms in the world, Enlisted Design works with Adobe's 3D modeling and immersive applications and across Illustrator and Photoshop to understand how consumers interact with products and how they can bring joy to that experience through sustainable practices— like using compostable materials, plant-based inks, bio-plastics, FSC certifications, and more. Through its work, Enlisted Design seeks to broaden the standard definition of sustainability, inspiring the partners it works with to seek sustainable business solutions to pressing global issues such as coal burning. Government partnerships in all 50 states In 2021, Adobe proudly achieved partnership with Federal Government as well as individual agencies at the state, county, and city levels in all 50 states to empower digital modernization. Through a combination of Adobe Experience, Document, and Creative Cloud solutions, our various partnerships have enabled government agencies to streamline COVID-19 testing, distribute vaccine information to constituents, power the first-ever online decennial Census, efficiently pivot to remote workstreams, shift to paperless processes to conserve natural resources, and more.

12 2021 Adobe Corporate Social Responsibility Report Spotlight: Building trust As we continue to bring transformational technologies to market, we’re committed to advancing the responsible use of technology for the good of society. Our innovations are making a significant impact in areas such as content authenticity, AI ethics, data privacy and security, and human rights. Artwork by Pawel Nolbert Content Authenticity Initiative We’re leading the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) with numerous partners in hardware, software, publishing, and social media to establish the standard for transparency and attribution across the entire content ecosystem and bring more trust to media. In 2021 CAI grew to over 650 members, up from 3 founding members in 2019 (Adobe, The New York Times Company, and Twitter)—a testament to the urgency we all feel to build provenance standards now, and to do it in the open with the broadest possible set of contributors. In October 2021, we launched a publicly available beta version of Content Credentials within Photoshop , allowing users to view and attach provenance to their work. In addition, all images downloaded from Adobe Stock (around 300,000 images per day) now come with Content Credentials attached. Behance now also supports Content Credentials in its single image view, where creators can display attribution and history of their work and explore the digital provenance of other projects. We also launched several case studies and proof-of-concept implementations to demonstrate the value of the CAI technology. AI ethics We believe that artificial intelligence (AI) has the power to amplify human intelligence, creativity, and ingenuity to create exceptional digital experiences, and we're committed to advancing AI in an ethical, responsible, and inclusive way that makes it better for both our customers and society at large. We’re guided by the principles of accountability, responsibility, and transparency to mitigate potentially harmful bias in our solutions. In 2021, we continued to scale our AI ethics review process for our AI-powered features, and we helped advance important industry-wide initiatives by joining the Partnership on AI and developing BSA's Framework to Build Trust in AI alongside other technology leaders. Data privacy and online safety To earn the trust of consumers and creators, we invest in initiatives that enhance transparency and we embed data protection within our products and services. In 2021, we led industry-wide initiatives to tackle the distribution of child sexual abuse material through a partnership with the Technology Coalition , and we published an enhanced version of our online safety resource to include first-of-its-kind child safety metrics. We also published our inaugural California Consumer Privacy Act transparency metrics on individual rights requests, furthering our commitments to consumer trust and corporate social responsibility. Human Rights Impact Assessment As a leading technology company with worldwide operations and a global footprint, we’ve always been committed to respecting the human rights of our employees, business partners, suppliers, customers, and communities. In 2021, we kicked off an internal Human Rights Impact Assessment in partnership with Article One , a specialized human rights consultancy, to help anticipate changing industry needs and risks as well as to ensure that we have comprehensive and up-to-date policies and practices throughout our operations.

Policy advocacy and thought leadership We work with our customers, industry peers, and partners like the Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance, BSR’s Future of Internet Power, the US Green Building Council, and the World Resources Institute to leverage the collective power of our brands to drive change. In 2021, we signed our support for multiple pieces of legislation and climate efforts, including the Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance Federal Policy Statement on grid decarbonization and a letter in advance of the UN Climate Change Conference urging leaders of G20 governments to strengthen their climate commitments.
