Interpretation
An increase in this metric indicates that the revenue generated from your existing Customer base is growing. This is great news as the business is growing without adding new Customers, or without spending on acquiring new customers. It is recommended to keep Expansion MRR higher than the Gross MRR Churn metric.
Example: In a given period, Total MRR at the beginning of the month is $2000 and there are Upgrades, Cross-sells and Addons during the period and Total MRR plummeted to $3000 at the end of the month.
Expansion MRR rate = [(3000-2000)/2000] x 100 = 50%.
