Sound familiar?

SaaS businesses don’t fit a traditional accounting model

Recurring revenue, subscription billing, deferred revenue and churn require a finance partner who understands subscriptions.

  • Cash in the bank doesn’t match recognized revenue
  • MRR and churn calculated differently every month
  • Investors asking for metrics you can’t produce quickly
  • Runway uncertainty as you hire ahead of revenue

FAQ

SaaS and technology finance questions

What is ASC 606 and does it apply to my SaaS company?

ASC 606 is the U.S. GAAP standard for recognizing revenue from customer contracts. For SaaS, annual or multi-year prepayments are recognized over the subscription period rather than when cash is received, creating deferred revenue. It matters most when you raise capital, take on debt, get audited or sell the company.

Which SaaS metrics do investors care about most?

Typically ARR growth, net revenue retention, gross margin, CAC payback, burn multiple and runway. We report these consistently each month so they’re ready when investors ask.

When does a SaaS company need a fractional CFO?

Usually when preparing to raise, when burn and hiring plans need modeling against runway, or when the board expects investor-grade reporting, often well before a full-time CFO makes sense.
