Annualized recurring revenue baseline

This converts the current monthly recurring revenue base into an annualized run rate. The output is useful for scale context, but actual annual revenue can change if churn, expansion, pricing, collections, or new sales move differently than expected.

Assumption quality check

  • The calculation assumes the current recurring base remains active for run-rate context.
  • Exclude one-time fees unless they truly recur as subscription revenue.

Formula used

ARR run rate = Current MRR x 12

ARR run rate

Current MRR x 12

Quarterly run rate

Current MRR x 3

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Including one-time setup fees or services revenue in MRR.
  • Treating ARR run rate as contracted revenue without checking churn and renewal risk.
  • Annualizing a temporary launch spike instead of a durable recurring base.

A single metric is useful, but SaaS planning works best when revenue, churn, acquisition efficiency, and capital efficiency are reviewed together.

ARR Run Rate FAQ

What is ARR run rate?

ARR run rate is current MRR multiplied by twelve. It annualizes the current recurring revenue base.

Is ARR run rate the same as booked ARR?

No. ARR run rate annualizes current MRR. Booked ARR depends on signed recurring contracts and may require different accounting treatment.

Should I include services revenue?

Usually no. ARR run rate should focus on recurring subscription revenue, not one-time services, setup fees, or implementation projects.
