MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) projection: start + new − churn + expansion. ARR = MRR × 12. SaaS investors care about ARR growth + Net Revenue Retention. NRR = (start + expansion − churn) / start. >100% NRR (negative net churn) is best-in-class. Linear new-MRR + low churn + expansion → exponential ARR growth. Healthy SaaS: 50-100% YoY ARR growth at $1-10M ARR; 30-50% at $10-100M.
