Understanding Revenue Growth
What is Revenue Growth?
Revenue growth refers to the increase in sales of a company between periods. Expressed as a percentage, it shows how much a company grew its revenues in one period compared to the previous period. Investors usually calculate it quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) or year-over-year (YoY).
Why is it Important?
- •Indicates business health and expansion
- •Helps evaluate investment opportunities
- •Enables competitive analysis
- •Assists in strategic planning
Formulas Explained
Revenue Growth = ((Revenuefinal - Revenueinitial) / Revenueinitial) × 100%
CAGR = ((Revenuefinal / Revenueinitial)1/n - 1) × 100%
- Revenuefinal: Most recent revenue data
- Revenueinitial: Older revenue data for comparison
- n: Number of periods
- CAGR: Compound Annual Growth Rate
Note: CAGR provides a smoothed annual growth rate over multiple periods, while simple growth shows the total change between two points.
