AI and Software

Enterprise software value is no longer proven by growth alone. We build the finance, reporting, and diligence foundation behind efficient growth, durable retention, and defensible software metrics.

How software value gets built and proven

The game has changed for software investors. Growth alone no longer sets the valuation; the quality of that growth does.

The era of growth at any cost is over. The companies that command premium valuations now are the ones that grow efficiently, with strong unit economics, durable retention, and a clear path to profitability.

Investors underwrite the quality of growth before they reward the rate of it, scrutinizing LTV to CAC, CAC payback, and net revenue retention, where top performers clear 120% and earn materially higher multiples. These are the same metrics a CEO should be steering by every month, and we have the expertise to make them defensible in diligence and reliable as a management signal between rounds.

ASC 606 revenue recognition

Multi-year, usage-based, and hybrid contracts each carry different recognition mechanics. We apply ASC 606 across the full contract base, so revenue stands up in diligence.

Unit economics & ARR integrity

LTV to CAC and CAC payback only mean something if the ARR underneath is clean. We build the metrics off transaction-level detail rather than the sales dashboard.

Retention & concentration

Investors underwrite the durability of revenue, not just its growth. We calculate net revenue retention, churn, and customer concentration on a defensible basis.

Multi-entity software structures

Software companies scale into multiple legal entities and currencies. We consolidate them onto one reporting basis, so group financials stay clean as the structure grows.

Exbo works the full arc: the finance, reporting, and systems that build these metrics month to month, and the diligence that proves them when it counts.
