Frequently asked

How is a SaaS valuation calculated?

This calculator annualizes recurring revenue, applies a growth-based ARR multiple, and adjusts that multiple for margin, churn, operating history, concentration, and category.

Is this a formal business appraisal?

No. It is an educational scenario model. A real transaction depends on diligence, profitability, transferability, market conditions, and negotiated terms.

Does RevenueBug use listing asking prices as completed-sale data?

No. Asking prices are not completed transactions. The calculator uses transparent editable assumptions instead of presenting asking prices as market evidence.

How the estimate works

The model starts with annual recurring revenue and a growth-based multiple. It then applies modest, visible adjustments for gross margin, churn, operating history, customer concentration, and business category. The range is deliberately wider than the base case because private-company transactions are negotiated, not mechanically priced.

Use recurring revenueโ€”not every payment

If your business includes services, lifetime deals, annual prepayments, or one-time purchases, do not treat all trailing revenue as MRR. Normalize only contracted, recurring subscription value before using an ARR multiple.
