What is Recurring Revenue?

The portion of a company’s revenue that is expected to continue in the future is known as recurring revenue. These revenues, unlike one-time sales, are predictable, stable, and can be counted on to occur at regular intervals in the future with a high degree of certainty. Businesses, investors, and analysts pay close attention to the revenue reported on a company’s income statement. Because all expenses and taxes are subtracted from revenues to arrive at net income, the top line determines the bottom line, or profit.

One-time sales or a stream of expected periodic sales can be used to generate revenue. The latter, also known as recurring revenue, is critical for businesses that want to ensure a steady and predictable revenue stream. Companies that receive monthly payments from customers who are locked into long-term contracts that last longer than the current accounting period are examples, as are big name brands that can reasonably expect their popular, market-leading products to remain at the top of consumer shopping lists for years to come.
