alt Hacker NewsARR has no official GAAP definition, but is generally understood as the annualized value of a company's current recurring revenue base.
This is something Ed clearly doesn't understand https://x.com/edzitron/status/2031124650474852382
And you haven't addressed the fact that he doesn't do simple data calculations - see his blog https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-beginning-of-history
That's the trouble I have with ARR, because there's no standard, people engage in shenanigans. I do find the 5bn lifetime revenue versus their ARR figures pretty sketchy which is why I really want to see the S1.
Can you be more specific on his incorrect calculations please?
