How the Revenue Growth Calculator Works
Growth Rate = (Current − Previous) ÷ |Previous| × 100
Projected Revenue = Current × (1 + Growth Rate ÷ 100)^Years
CAGR = (Ending ÷ Starting)^(1÷Years) − 1
Example (growth rate): $500k → $650k = ($650k − $500k) ÷ $500k = +30%
Example (CAGR): $500k → $800k over 3 years = (800÷500)^(1/3) − 1 = 16.96%/year

Revenue Growth Calculator Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good revenue growth rate?
Highly context-dependent. Early-stage SaaS: 100–300%+ YoY. Growth-stage SaaS: 50–100%. Mature public companies: 10–20%. Fortune 500: 3–8%. Compare against industry benchmarks and your own historical trajectory rather than a single number.
What is the difference between YoY growth and CAGR?
YoY growth measures one period against the previous period. CAGR smooths multiple periods into a single consistent annual rate, useful for comparing growth over different timeframes. $1M growing to $1.7M in 3 years: YoY rates might be 20%, 15%, 13% but CAGR = 19.4%/year.
Why is CAGR useful for investors?
CAGR normalises uneven growth into a single comparable number. It answers 'what steady annual rate would produce the same end result?' Making investment comparisons across different time periods, asset classes, or companies much more meaningful.
Can revenue growth be negative?
Yes, negative growth (revenue decline) is calculated the same way. If revenue fell from $800k to $640k, growth = ($640k − $800k) ÷ $800k = −20%. The calculator handles negative growth rates correctly.
What is the rule of 40 for SaaS?
A SaaS health benchmark: Revenue Growth Rate + Profit Margin should equal or exceed 40. A company growing at 30% with a 15% profit margin scores 45, passing the rule of 40. It balances growth and profitability for stage-appropriate evaluation.
Are the numbers I enter into this calculator saved or tracked?
No. Every calculation runs right inside your browser using local code. Your salary, debts, and loan numbers stay completely private. Nothing is ever saved or sent to any server.
How should I account for taxes, inflation, and unexpected fees?
Most formulas show baseline estimates. In real life, keep local taxes, inflation, and bank fees in mind so your budget matches your actual costs.
