Try the following to get your Active Counts:

=COUNTIF(A2:A8,"Active")

Use this for your cancelled counts:

=COUNTIF(A2:A8,"Cancelled")

I have two columns:
A B
Cancelled ABC Company
Cancelled ABC Company
Active ABC Company
Cancelled ABC Company
Cancelled XYZ Company
Cancelled John Doe Company
Active The Smith Company

So I want to return this:
Cancelled 3
Active 2
Meaning that
there are 3 unique values counted once that are "Cancelled"
there are 2 unique values counted once that are "Active"

Thanks in advance
