The Company classifies its highly liquid money market funds within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets. The Company classifies its commercial paper, corporate debt securities, U.S. government agencies, certificates of deposit, and U.S. government treasury securities within Level 2 because they are valued using inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable in the market, including readily available pricing sources for the identical underlying security which may not be actively traded.
The Company's primary objective when investing excess cash is preservation of capital, hence the Company's marketable securities consist primarily of U.S. Treasury securities, high credit quality corporate debt securities and commercial paper. The Company has classified and accounted for its marketable securities as available-for-sale securities as we may sell these securities at any time for use in the Company’s current operations or for other purposes, even prior to maturity. As of July 31, 2021 and January 31, 2021, for fixed income securities that were in unrealized loss positions, the Company has determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments, and (ii) it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. In addition, as of July 31, 2021 and January 31, 2021, the Company anticipates that it will recover the entire amortized cost basis of such fixed income securities before maturity.
The Company regularly reviews the changes to the rating of its debt securities by rating agencies as well as reasonably monitors the surrounding economic conditions to assess the risk of expected credit losses. As of July 31, 2021 and January 31, 2021, there were no securities that were in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months. We have not recorded any impairments, as we believe any such losses would be immaterial based on the high-grade credit rating for each of our marketable securities as of the end of each period.
