| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
| Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, ("U.S. GAAP"), and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, ("SEC"), regarding interim financial reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, and accordingly the balance sheet as of January 31, 2019, and related disclosures, have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial information. The results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending January 31, 2020 or for any other interim period or for any other future year. The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended January 31, 2019 included in the Company’s prospectus dated June 11, 2019 filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. |
| Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the applicable required disclosures and regulations of the SEC. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended January 31, 2019, included in the Company’s prospectus dated June 11, 2019. |
| JOBS Act Accounting Election | JOBS Act Accounting Election The Company is an "emerging growth company" ("EGC") as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 ("JOBS Act"). An EGC may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies, including, but not limited to, delayed adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. The Company may take advantage of these exemptions until it is no longer an EGC. The Company would cease to be an EGC upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the first fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of its initial public offering; (ii) the first fiscal year after annual gross revenue is $1.0 billion or more; (iii) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.07 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or (iv) the date on which the Company qualifies as a "large accelerated filer," as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur at the end of any fiscal year in which the market value of the Company’s common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million as of the end of the second quarter of that fiscal year, and as of the end of such fiscal year the Company has been a reporting company for at least 12 months. |
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. On a regular basis, management evaluates these estimates and assumptions. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such difference could be material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates and assumptions used by management affect revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the carrying value of long-lived assets, the useful lives of long-lived assets, the fair value of financial instruments, the period of benefit for deferred contract acquisition costs, the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities, the provision for income taxes and related deferred taxes, stock-based compensation, and the fair value of the Company’s common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants. |
| Concentration of Credit Risk and Geographic Information | Concentration of Credit Risk and Geographic Information The Company generates revenue from the sale of subscriptions to access its cloud platform and professional services. The Company’s sales team, along with its channel partner network of system integrators and value-added resellers (collectively, “channel partners”), sells the Company’s services worldwide to organizations of all sizes. Due to the nature of the Company’s services and the terms and conditions of the Company’s contracts with its channel partners, the Company’s business could be affected unfavorably if it is not able to continue its relationships with them. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company’s cash is placed with high-credit-quality financial institutions and issuers, and at times exceed federally insured limits. The Company limits its concentration of risk in cash equivalents and marketable securities by diversifying its investments among a variety of industries and issuers. The Company has not experienced any credit loss relating to its cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Outstanding accounts receivable from one of the Company’s channel partners accounted for 11% of its consolidated accounts receivable as of April 30, 2019. No channel partner accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of January 31, 2019. Outstanding accounts receivable from one of the Company’s direct customers accounted for 11% of its consolidated accounts receivable as of April 30, 2019. Outstanding accounts receivable from two of the Company’s direct customers accounted for 10% and 19% of its consolidated accounts receivable as of January 31, 2019. Revenue from sales to one of the Company’s channel partners accounted for 12% and 17% of its consolidated revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. There were no direct customers who represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue during the three months ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018. |
| Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities | Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019 consisted of corporate debt securities and money market funds stated at fair value. The Company classifies investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale securities at the time of purchase, since it is the Company’s intent that these investments are available to support current operations. Marketable securities are classified as current or long-term based on the nature of the investments and their availability for use in current operations. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, if any, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Unrealized losses are recorded in other income (expense), net, for declines in fair value below the cost of an individual investment that is deemed to be other-than-temporary. The Company did not identify any marketable securities as other-than-temporarily impaired as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. The Company determines realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities on a specific identification method and records such gains or losses in other income (expense), net. Marketable securities as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019 consisted of corporate debt securities and U.S. treasury securities. |
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability, and loans payable. The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company reports the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability at fair value (see Note 3, Fair Value Measurements Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock |
| Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are non-interest bearing. Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company has a well-established collections history from its customers. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral from its customers; however, the Company may require payment prior to commencing service in certain instances to limit credit risk. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of accounts. Management regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering the age of each outstanding invoice, each customer’s expected ability to pay, and the collection history with each customer, when applicable, to determine whether the allowance is appropriate. Amounts deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. |
| Deferred Offering Costs | Deferred Offering Costs Deferred offering costs of $4.0 million and $2.9 million have been recorded as other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, respectively, and consist of expenses incurred in connection with the Company’s IPO, including legal, accounting, printing, and other IPO-related costs. Upon closing of the IPO on June 14, 2019 these deferred offering costs were reclassified to stockholders’ equity and recorded against the proceeds from the offering. |
| Property and Equipment, Net | Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment, net, is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: Data center and other computer equipment 3 – 5 years Furniture and equipment 5 years Purchased software 3 – 5 years Capitalized internal-use software 3 years Leasehold improvements Estimated useful life or term of the lease, whichever is shorter Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expense as incurred. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Upon retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is recorded in operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. |
| Capitalized Internal Use Software | Capitalized Internal-Use Software The Company capitalizes certain development costs incurred in connection with its internal-use software. These capitalized costs are primarily related to the Company’s cloud-delivered solution for next-generation endpoint protection. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized costs are recorded as property and equipment, net. Maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Internal-use software is amortized to cost of revenue on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of three years. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. There were no impairments of internal-use software during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018. The Company capitalized $2.0 million and $1.7 million in internal-use software during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. Amortization expense associated with internal-use software totaled $1.5 million and $1.1 million during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. The net book value of capitalized internal-use software was $12.0 million and $11.5 million as of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, respectively. |
| Intangible Assets, Net | Intangible Assets, Net Intangible assets, net, consisting of developed technology, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. All intangible assets have been determined to have definite lives and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic lives of three to five years. Amortization expense related to developed technology is included in cost of revenue, amortization expense related to customer relationships is included in sales and marketing expenses, and amortization expense related to non-compete agreements is included in research and development expenses. |
| Deferred Contract Acquisition Costs | Deferred Contract Acquisition Costs The Company capitalizes contract acquisition costs that are incremental to the acquisition of customer contracts. Contract acquisition costs are accrued and capitalized upon execution of the sales contract by the customer. Sales commissions for renewal of a contract are not considered commensurate with the commissions paid for the acquisition of the initial contract or follow-on upsell given the substantive difference in commission rates in proportion to their respective contract values. Commissions, including referral fees paid to channel partners, paid upon the initial acquisition of a contract or subsequent upsell are amortized over an estimated period of benefit of four years while commissions paid for renewal contracts are amortized over the contractual term of the renewals. Sales commissions associated with professional service contract are amortized ratably over an estimated period of benefit of six months. Amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs is recognized on a straight-line basis commensurate with the pattern of revenue recognition and included in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company capitalized contract acquisition costs of $8.5 million and $5.0 million, which is under ASC 605, during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. Contract acquisition cost amortization expense was $7.3 million and $5.6 million, which is under ASC 605, during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. |
| Impairment of Long Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. Events and changes in circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, include, but are not limited to: significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant changes in the use of the assets, significant negative industry or economic trends, and changes in the Company’s business strategy. Impairment testing is performed at an asset level that represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (an “asset group”). An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (or asset group) and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. No impairment indicators were identified by the Company and no impairment losses were recorded by the Company during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018. |
| Deferred Revenue | Deferred Revenue The deferred revenue balance consists of subscription and professional services which have been invoiced upfront and are recognized as revenue only when the revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company typically invoices its customers at the beginning of the term, or in some instances, such as in multi-year arrangements, in installments. Professional services are either invoiced upfront, invoiced in installments, or invoiced as the services are performed. Accordingly, the Company’s deferred revenue balance does not include revenues for future years of multi-year non-cancellable contracts that have not yet been billed. The Company recognizes subscription revenue ratably over the contract term beginning on the commencement date of each contract, the date that services are made available to customers. Once services are available to customers, the Company records amounts due in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue. To the extent the Company bills customers in advance of the contract commencement date, the accounts receivable and corresponding deferred revenue amounts are netted to zero on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, unless such amounts have been paid as of the balance sheet date. |
| Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants | Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants Warrants related to the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock are classified as liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The warrants are subject to reassessment at each balance sheet date, and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other income (expense), net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the expiration or exercise of the warrants, or upon their automatic conversion into warrants to purchase common stock in connection with a qualified initial public offering (as defined in Note 7, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock |
| Revenue Recognition - ASC 606 | Revenue Recognition – ASC 606 The Company adopted ASC 606 on February 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, results for reporting periods beginning on February 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with prior accounting under Topic 605. The Company has shown the effect of applying ASC 606 for the three months ended April 30, 2019 in the disclosures below. The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit of $23.4 million, net of tax, as of the date of adoption. The change resulted from a $23.7 million reduction in the amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs offset by a $0.3 million reduction in revenue. The following tables summarize the effect of the adoption of Topic 606 on the Company’s select line items included in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended April 30, 2019, as if the previous accounting was in effect: April 30, 2019 January 31, 2019 As Reported Impact of Without Adoption As Reported (ASC 606) Adoption (ASC 605) (ASC 605) (in thousands) Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet Assets: Deferred contract acquisition costs, current $ 26,193 $ 1,815 $ 28,008 $ 28,847 Deferred contract acquisition costs, noncurrent 38,004 (30,337) 7,667 9,918 Liabilities: Accrued expenses 31,185 (555) 30,630 32,541 Deferred revenue, current 244,271 (250) 244,021 218,700 Deferred revenue, noncurrent 70,941 — 70,941 71,367 Stockholders' Equity: Accumulated deficit (521,685) (27,717) (549,402) (519,126) Three Months Ended April 30, 2019 Three Months Ended April 30, 2018 As Reported Impacts of Without Adoption As Reported (ASC 606) Adoption (ASC 605) (ASC 605) (in thousands) Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations Revenue $ 96,077 $ (83) $ 95,994 $ 47,289 Operating expenses: Sales and marketing 56,843 4,216 61,059 36,617 Net loss (25,977) (4,299) (30,276) (33,617) Net loss per share, basic and diluted $ (0.55) $ (0.64) $ (0.77) The adoption of Topic 606 had no impact on net cash provided by or used in operating, investing, or financing activities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended April 30, 2019. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve the core principle of this standard, the Company applies the following five steps: 1) Identify the contract with a customer The Company considers the terms and conditions of contracts with customers and its customary business practices in identifying contracts under ASC 606. The Company determines it has a contract with a customer when the contract is approved, each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred can be identified, payment terms for the services can be identified, it has been determined that the customer has the ability and intent to pay, and the contract has commercial substance. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. 2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from the Company or from third parties, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company’s performance obligations consist of (i) subscriptions and (ii) professional services. 3) Determine the transaction price The transaction price is determined based on the consideration which the Company is expected to be entitled to in exchange for transferring services to the customer. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts contain a significant financing component. 4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price ("SSP"). 5) Recognize revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to the customer. Revenue is recognized when control of the services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those services. The Company generates all its revenue from contracts with customers. Subscription Revenue The Company’s Falcon Platform technology solutions are subscription, software as a service (“SaaS”) offerings designed to continuously monitor, share, and mitigate risks from determined attackers. Customers do not have the right to take possession of the cloud-based software platform. Fees are based on several factors, including the solutions subscribed for by the customer and the number of endpoints purchased by the customer. The subscription fees are typically payable within 30 to 60 days after the execution of the arrangement, and thereafter upon renewal or subsequent installment. The Company initially records the subscription fees as deferred revenue and recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The typical subscription term is one to three years. Most of the Company’s contracts are non-cancelable over the contractual term. Customers typically have the right to terminate their contracts for cause if the Company fails to perform in accordance with the contractual terms. Some customers have the option to purchase additional subscription at a stated price. These options generally do not provide a material right as they are priced at our SSP. Professional Services Revenue The Company offers several types of professional services including incident response and forensic services, surge forensic and malware analysis, and attribution analysis, which are focused on responding to imminent and direct threats, assessing vulnerabilities, and recommending solutions. These services are distinct from subscription services. Professional services do not result in significant customization of the subscription service. The professional services are available through hourly rate and fixed fee contracts, one-time and ongoing engagements, and retainer-based agreements. Revenue for time and materials arrangements is recognized as services are performed and revenue for fixed fees is recognized on a proportional performance basis as the services are performed. Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations Some contracts with customers contain multiple promised services consisting of subscription and professional services that are distinct and accounted for separately. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative SSP basis. The SSP is the price at which the Company would sell promised subscription or professional services separately to a customer. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines SSP based on its overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration the type of subscription or professional service and the number of endpoints. Variable Consideration Revenue from sales is recorded at the net sales price, which is the transaction price, and includes estimates of variable consideration. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price is constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue will not occur when the uncertainty is resolved. If subscriptions do not meet certain service level commitments, the Company’s customers are entitled to receive service credits, and in certain cases, refunds, each representing a form of variable consideration. The Company has historically not experienced any significant incidents affecting the defined levels of reliability and performance as required by its subscription contracts. Accordingly, any estimated refunds related to these agreements in the condensed consolidated financial statements is not material during the periods presented. The Company provides rebates and other credits within its contracts with certain resellers, which are estimated based on the most likely amounts expected to be earned or claimed on the related sales transaction. Overall, the transaction price is reduced to reflect the Company’s estimate of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the contract. Estimated rebates and other credits were not material during the periods presented. |
| Revenue Recognition - ASC 605 | Revenue Recognition – ASC 605 Prior to adopting ASC 606 on February 1, 2019, the Company recognized subscription and professional services when: (1) persuasive evidence of the contract exists in the form of a written contract, amendments to that contract, or purchase orders from a third party; (2) delivery has occurred, or services have been rendered; (3) the price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured based on customer creditworthiness and history of collection. The timing and the amount the Company recognized as revenue was determined based on the facts and circumstances of each customer’s arrangements. Evidence of an arrangement consisted of a signed customer agreement. The Company considered that the delivery of its solution had commenced once it provided the customer with log-in information and the term of the contract had started. Fees were fixed based on stated rates specified in the customer agreement. The Company assessed collectability based on several factors, including the credit worthiness of the customer and transaction history. If collectability was not reasonably assured, revenue was deferred until the fees were collected. For arrangements that involve the contemporaneous sale of subscription and professional services, the Company applied the multiple-element arrangement guidance to allocate the arrangement consideration to all deliverables based on their relative selling price. The Company determined that the cloud-based platform subscription has standalone value, because once access is given to the customer, the solutions are fully functional and do not require any additional development, modification, or customization. Professional services have standalone value because they are regularly sold by the Company in separate transactions. Additionally, the performance of these professional services generally does not require highly specialized or technologically skilled individuals and the professional services are not essential to the functionality of the solutions. The Company used a hierarchy to determine the selling price to be used for allocating revenue to deliverables: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (‘‘VSOE’’); (ii) third-party evidence of selling price (‘‘TPE’’); and (iii) best estimate of selling price (‘‘BESP’’). BESP reflected the Company’s best estimates of what the selling prices of elements would be if they were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s process for determining BESP involved management’s judgment and considered numerous factors including the nature of the deliverables themselves and historical discounting practices. The Company updated its estimates of BESP on an ongoing basis as events and circumstances required. |
| Research and Development Expense | Research and Development Expense Research and development costs are expensed when incurred, except for certain internal-use software development costs, which may be capitalized as noted above. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and related headcount costs, costs of professional services associated with the ongoing development of the Company’s technology, and allocated overhead. |
| Advertising | Advertising All advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred $1.1 million and $0.5 million of advertising costs during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively. |
| Stock Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based awards granted to employees and directors based on the awards’ estimated grant date fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of its stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The resulting fair value is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period during which the employee or director is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period, which is generally four years. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Prior to the Company’s adoption of ASU 2018-07, stock-based awards issued to non-employees were accounted for at fair value determined by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company believes that the fair value of the stock options is more reliably measured than the fair value of the services received. The fair value of each non-employee stock-based award is remeasured each period until a commitment date is reached, which is generally the vesting date. The Company early adopted ASU 2018-07 on February 1, 2019 and began accounting for stock-based awards issued to non-employees the same as it accounts for stock-based awards issued to employees. The effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 30, 2019 was not material. Restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted under the 2011 Plan are subject to a service-based vesting condition and a performance-based vesting condition. The service-based vesting condition is generally satisfied based on one of three vesting schedules: (i) vesting of one-fourth of the RSUs on the first "Company vest date" (defined as March 20, June 20, September 20, or December 20) on or following the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date with the remainder of the RSUs vesting in twelve equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to continued service, (ii) vesting in sixteen equal quarterly installments beginning on December 20, 2018, subject to continued service, or (iii) vesting in eight equal quarterly installments beginning on December 20, 2022, subject to continued service. The performance-based vesting condition is satisfied on the earlier of (i) a change in control, in which the consideration paid to holders of shares is either cash, publicly traded securities, or a combination thereof, or (ii) the first Company vest date to occur following the expiration of the lock-up period upon an IPO, subject to continued service through such change in control or lock-up expiration, as applicable. None of the RSUs vest unless the performance-based vesting condition is satisfied. As of April 30, 2019 the performance based vesting condition had not yet been met, and thus no stock-based compensation relating to these RSUs was recognized. In the quarter in which the performance-based vesting condition is met, the Company will begin recording stock-based compensation expense using the accelerated attribution method based on the grant date fair value of the RSUs. As of April 30, 2019, the total amount of stock-based compensation expense deferred related to this performance-based vesting condition was approximately $13.0 million. |
| Business Combinations | Business Combinations The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired technology, trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. |
| Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Intangible Assets The Company evaluates and tests the recoverability of goodwill for impairment at least annually, on January 31, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company performs the impairment testing by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company has one reporting unit. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company performs the first step of a two-step analysis by comparing the book value of net assets to the fair value of the reporting unit. To calculate any potential impairment, the Company compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over its fair value is recognized as an impairment loss, and the carrying value of goodwill is written down. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company considers the impact of certain key factors including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, management turnover, changes in regulation, litigation matters, changes in enterprise value, and overall financial performance. No impairment was recorded during the three months ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018. The change in goodwill balance during the three months ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018 was due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Acquired intangible assets consisting of identifiable intangible assets, were comprised of developed technology, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements resulting from acquisitions. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and amortized over their estimated economic lives following the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets will be consumed which is on a straight-line basis. Acquired intangible assets are presented net of accumulated amortization on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviews the carrying amounts of intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company measures the recoverability of intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future undiscounted cash flows it expects the asset to generate. If the Company considers any of these assets to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. In addition, the Company periodically evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation or amortization. |
| Leases | Leases The Company leases its office space under various noncancelable operating lease agreements and recognizes related rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease agreements contain rent holidays, scheduled rent increases, lease incentives, and renewal options. Rent holidays and scheduled rent increases are included in the determination of rent expense to be recorded over the lease term. Lease incentives are recognized as a reduction of rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Renewals are not assumed in the determination of the lease term unless they are deemed to be reasonably assured at the inception of the lease. The Company begins to recognize rent expense on the date that the Company obtains the legal right to use and control the leased space. |
| Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation The functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are each country’s local currency. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated into U.S. Dollars at exchange rates in effect at the reporting date. Amounts classified in stockholders’ deficit are translated at historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency transaction gains or losses, whether realized or unrealized, are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations within other expense, net, and have not been material for all periods presented. |
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and credit carryforwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Company accounts for unrecognized tax benefits using a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company establishes a liability for tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. The Company records an income tax liability, if any, for the difference between the benefit recognized and measured and the tax position taken or expected to be taken on the Company’s tax returns. To the extent that the assessment of such tax positions changes, the change in estimate is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. The liability is adjusted considering changing facts and circumstances, such as the outcome of a tax audit. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of liability provisions and changes to the liability that are considered appropriate. As the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, the changes resulted in no additional tax expense during the three months ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018. As of April 30, 2019, the Company does not expect that changes in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits for the next twelve months will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| Sales Taxes | Sales Taxes When sales and other taxes are billed, such amounts are recorded as accounts receivable with a corresponding increase to other current liabilities, respectively. The balances are then removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheet as cash is collected from the customer and as remitted to the respective tax authority. |
| Segment and Geographic Information | Segment and Geographic Information The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company operates as one operating and reportable segment. The Company presents financial information about its geographic areas in Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| Net Loss per Share | Net Loss per Share Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company considers all series of its redeemable convertible preferred stock to be participating securities. Net income is attributed to common stockholders and participating securities based on their participation rights. Net loss attributable to common stockholders is not allocated to the redeemable convertible preferred stock as the holders of the redeemable convertible preferred stock do not have a contractual obligation to share in any losses. Under the two-class method, basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders adjusts basic earnings per share for the potentially dilutive impact of stock options and redeemable convertible preferred stock. As the Company has reported losses for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities including redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options, and warrants, are antidilutive and accordingly, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share. |
