Round #64 of the Debt Serious newsletter covers two main areas: an update on the publication's new premium subscription tier and a detailed primer on ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) loans. On the subscription side, the author describes an inaugural 'Diligence Call' held for premium subscribers with Stefan Shaffer, a founder of investment bank SPP Capital Partners, who has spent 25–30 years raising debt for sponsor-backed companies. Planned future calls include sessions with multi-billion-dollar private credit funds, legal discussions of credit documents (including one examining how HPS provided £550m for Aston Martin), a commodity trader, a senior restructuring officer at a large alternative asset manager, and Jim Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Fund. Upcoming podcasts will feature commentary on shorting life insurance companies and trends in credit documentation. The ARR loan primer draws on the author's own career managing these loans. He describes ARR loans—also called Recurring Revenue loans—as loans extended to businesses based on a multiple of top-line revenue rather than bottom-line earnings. He notes that over the prior 10–15 years, ARR loans produced virtually no defaults while carrying premium pricing, making them attractive to lenders. The primer explains SaaS companies, categorizing them by client type (B2B vs. B2C), product function (ERP, CRM, HR, marketing, collaboration), market orientation (horizontal vs. vertical), and market position (enterprise, SMB, middle market). It describes revenue streams as recurring (fixed subscription fees), re-occurring (usage-based), non-recurring (one-time fees), and hybrid combinations. The author then distinguishes ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) from ordinary recurring revenue, using a fictional company called 'Qav' to illustrate how ARR is calculated by annualizing recognized monthly revenue once software implementation begins, and flagging how timing nuances can produce misleading figures.
