The money market funds were classified as cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate fair value of the Company’s money market funds approximated amortized cost and, as such, there were no unrealized gains or losses on money market funds as of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021. Realized gains and losses, net of tax, were not material for any of the periods presented.

As of April 30, 2021 and January 31, 2021, the Company had no investments with a contractual maturity of greater than one year.

The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments:

	Redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability			Private placement warrant liability			Earnout liability

The fair value of the private placement warrant liability, redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability and earnout liability are based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. In determining the fair value of the private placement warrant liability, the Company used the Binomial-Lattice Model (“BLM”) model that assumes optimal exercise of the Company’s redemption option at the earliest possible date (Note 9). In determining the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value using unobservable inputs including the expected term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield (see Note 9). In determining the fair value of the earnout liability, the Company used the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model using a distribution of potential outcomes on a monthly basis over the Earnout Period using the most reliable information available (see Note 9).
