A *few* excerpts from an excellent @MeritechCapital "Software Pulse" update:

"shows that growth is 3.0x as correlated with multiple vs. FCF margin. Said another way, a 1% increase in growth would have the same impact on multiple as a 3.0% increase in FCF margin."

/1 Image
Meritech itself uses an adjusted Rule of 40 (with a 3x weighting on revenue growth)...

their approach less volatile than traditional Rule of 40 method

A decent case for more SaaS IPOs:

Even 2nd quartile has 11% annualized returns from IPO

With bottom quartile -1% & top quartile +29%

Now excerpts from report at :

πŸ‘Unique for the benchmark genre, historical + trended data https://t.co/c0wcGaU9Q6benchmarkit.ai/benchmarks
Good quote on Ro40:

"Rule of 40 is often artificially elevated by the higher growth rates found in the < $5M ARR cohort. As such Rule of 40 is not an instructive metric for this cohort."
