Analytical Proof & Invariants

Machine Precision
Governing Mathematical Formula:
Net New MRR = New MRR + Expansion MRR - Contraction MRR - Churned MRR | NRR % = [(Ending MRR from Existing) / Starting MRR] × 100

Step-by-Step Mathematical Derivation

1
Gross Inflows & Outflows

Total Inflows = New MRR ($14,000) + Expansion ($6,500) = $20,500. Total Outflows = Contraction ($2,200) + Churn ($4,800) = $7,000.

2
Net New MRR Derivation

Net New MRR = $20,500 inflows - $7,000 outflows = +$13,500 net addition.

3
Ending MRR

Ending MRR = Beginning ($120,000) + Net New ($13,500) = $133,500 (+11.25% monthly growth).

4
Net Revenue Retention (NRR) Formula

Cohort Ending MRR = $120,000 + $6,500 expansion - $2,200 contraction - $4,800 churn = $119,500. NRR = ($119,500 / $120,000) × 100 = 99.58% ≈ 99.6%.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is considered a great Net Revenue Retention (NRR)? +
An NRR above 100% means the business grows revenue from existing customers alone, even with zero new acquisitions (known as 'negative net churn'). Top SaaS companies achieve 115% to 130% NRR.
What is the difference between Gross Churn and Net Churn? +
Gross churn measures only revenue lost from cancellations and downgrades. Net churn offsets those losses against expansion MRR from existing customers upgrading.
