    How it works

    Methodology & formulas

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Multiply current MRR by 12 for base ARR.
    2. 2Add annual-only contracts directly; amortize multi-year over assumed term.
    3. 3Calculate net retention from churn and expansion inputs.
    4. 4Compound MRR by growth forecast for projection months.
    5. 5Convert projected MRR back to ARR for future estimates.
    6. 6Apply 5× and 10× multiples for quick valuation sanity check.

    Formulas

    • arrFromMRR = currentMRR ×12
    • arrFromAnnual = annualContractValue
    • arrFromMulti = multiYear/2 if >0 else 0
    • totalARR = arrFromMRR + arrFromAnnual + arrFromMulti
    • netRetention = 1 − churn/100 + expansion/100
    • projectedMRR = currentMRR × (1+growth)^months
    • projectedARR = projectedMRR×12 + annual + multi
    • valuation = ARR × multiple

    Important assumptions

    • ARR from MRR = currentMRR ×12.
    • ARR from annual contracts = annualContractValue (already annual).
    • ARR from multi-year = multiYearContractValue / 2 amortized annually if value >0, 0 otherwise.
    • Total ARR = MRR-based + annual + multi-year.
    • Net retention monthly = 1 − churnRate/100 + expansionRate/100.
    • Projected MRR = currentMRR × (1+growthForecast)^months.
    • Projected ARR = projectedMRR×12 + annualContracts (flat) + amortized multi-year.
    • Implied valuations = totalARR ×5 and ×10.

    Worked example

    $14.5K MRR plus $24K annual contracts

    $14.5K MRR, $24K annual contracts, $0 multi-year, 3% churn, 1.5% expansion, 5% growth, 12 month forecast.

    $14.5K MRR → $174K ARR from MRR. +$24K annual contracts = $198K total ARR. Net retention monthly 98.5%. Growth 5%/mo. 6 months: $14.5K×1.05^6≈$19.43K MRR → $233K +$24K = $257K projected. 12 months: $14.5K×1.05^12=$26,038 MRR → $312.5K +$24K = $336.5K projected. At 10x multiple, valuation roughly $2M now, $3.36M if forecast holds.
