Fair Value Measurements

12 Months Ended

Jan. 31, 2022

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the fair value measurement within the following hierarchical levels:

•Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•Level 2: Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs used (in thousands):


	January 31, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	378,294	$	—	$	—	$	378,294
Total assets	$	378,294	$	—	$	—	$	378,294


	January 31, 2021
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	378,281	$	—	$	—	$	378,281
Total assets	$	378,281	$	—	$	—	$	378,281

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash held in banks, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities and are excluded from the fair value tables above.

It is the Company’s policy to recognize transfers of assets and liabilities between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of a reporting period. The Company does not transfer out of Level 3 and into Level 2 until observable inputs become available and reliable. There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the years ended January 31, 2022 or 2021.
