SaaS & Tech-Enabled Services Business Valuations

Serving Miami, Miami-Dade County & South Florida.

Industry Description

This industry covers software-as-a-service platforms and tech-enabled service businesses — companies where recurring revenue metrics, not traditional asset value, drive most of the valuation conclusion.

Common Business Characteristics

Revenue driven by ARR/MRR rather than one-time sales
Value closely tied to net revenue retention and customer churn
Often capital-light with intangible assets (IP, customer relationships, code base) dominating value
Growth-stage companies may not yet be profitable, requiring revenue-multiple approaches

Valuation Considerations

Analyzing ARR/MRR quality, churn, and net revenue retention
Selecting appropriate revenue vs. earnings-based methodology given growth stage
Assessing customer concentration and contract terms
Valuing capitalized software development and other intangible assets
