Hey, SaaS founders and finance pros, have you heard of Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO)?

It's a required disclosure for public SaaS companies and provides forward-looking revenue visibility.

Quick thread. #saas #RPO
RPO is the value of contracted revenue that SaaS companies expect to recognize in the future from existing contracts with customers.

It's an important measure of a company's revenue visibility and backlog.
Salesforce's (CRM) definition:

The “contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized and includes unearned revenue and unbilled amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods.” Image

SaaS Metrics are more powerful when used together. In isolation, they offer less context.

Assess your CAC Profile to grasp the full picture of GTM efficiency.

🧵 Here’s a quick summary to help you analyze your CAC profile and grow. 📈 #saas
You will need the following inputs for CAC profile calculations:

1️⃣Sales expenses - wages, taxes, benefits, travel, commissions, CRM, training, etc.
2️⃣Marketing - marketing, paid ads, conferences, brand, swag, ESP, etc.
3️⃣Bookings - dollars and logo counts Image
4️⃣MRR/ARR - includes new, expansion, and maybe contraction

5️⃣Logo count - the number of new customers/users each month

6️⃣Gross Margin - recurring gross margin and maybe variable gross margin

How important are clear and distinct revenue streams in SaaS? Well, your valuation depends on it.

The proper SaaS P&L setup helps your team, your Board, and your investors.

Quick guide. #saas
SaaS Revenue Streams

It's no longer just subscription revenue for SaaS companies. That was SaaS pricing 1.0.

I've worked with SaaS companies that had 5 distinct revenue streams.

Have you clearly defined your revenue categories? Image
Subscription Revenue

🚀Generated from invoicing subscription contracts that range from monthly to multi-year. Your product and resold products. This is contracted MRR or ARR.

☠️Careful with resold products. I may roll up to subscriptions but I code to a different GL account

Time for Advanced SaaS COGS. COGS vs OpEx is so important to get right.

But what if we have multiple revenue streams? Our COGS section must align with this.

Quick guide. #saas
What departments are included in pure-play SaaS COGS?

For pure-play SaaS, your COGS structure should include:

1⃣Technical Support
2⃣Professional Services
3⃣Customer Success
4⃣Dev Ops

Of course, CS is up for debate depending on their role.

Dev Ops = Cost of Ops in my example
What if we have more than just subscriptions and services?

It's very common in SaaS to have subscriptions, services, and variable revenue streams.

I had one client with all but managed services in the pic below.
