What is "ARR"?
ARR stands for Annual Recurring Revenue and is a key metric for subscription-based businesses. It represents the predictable and recurring revenue stream generated by an organization's subscription sales over a 12-month period. ARR is a vital metric used to understand the company's financial performance and growth potential, aiding decision-making processes and directing investment by quantifying the total value of subscription contracts annually. It is calculated by multiplying the average monthly recurring revenue (MRR) by 12. We calculate ARR using all currently "active" and "past due" subscriptions, as well as already "canceled" subscriptions that will end in the future. We subtract all discounts on those subscriptions. When calculating the value, we exclude (1) "canceled" trial subscriptions, (2) "canceled" subscriptions from customers currently with "active" or "past due" subscriptions, (3) "canceled" subscriptions that were canceled within the first 31 days after becoming "active," (4) "canceled" subscriptions due to delinquent customers, (5) "canceled" subscriptions with cancellation reason "payment_failed," and (6) "canceled" subscriptions with the latest invoice status different from "paid."
Example: Tracking ARR for a SaaS company to determine the annual revenue generated from subscription-based services like software licensing fees, support, and maintenance.
