Gross Revenue Churn Rate vs Churned MRR (lost from cancellations)

How to Calculate Revenue Churn

Formula

Gross Revenue Churn = (Churned MRR + Contraction MRR) / Starting MRR x 100

Revenue churn captures all recurring revenue losses in dollar terms, combining full cancellations with downgrades. It weights each lost customer by their spending, so losing one $5,000/month enterprise account matters more than losing five $50/month accounts. This is the metric investors scrutinize most.

Example Calculation

A company starts with $300,000 MRR, loses $12,000 from cancellations and $3,000 from downgrades.

  1. 01Total MRR Lost = $12,000 + $3,000 = $15,000
  2. 02Gross Revenue Churn = ($15,000 / $300,000) x 100 = 5%
  3. 03Annualized Loss = $15,000 x 12 = $180,000
