Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
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, (the “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, 2022, 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 presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial information. The results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending January 31, 2023 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, 2022 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2022 10-K”) filed with the SEC on April 11, 2022.

| Use of Estimates | Use of EstimatesThe preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, common stock valuations and stock-based compensation expense, software costs eligible for capitalization, recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets and the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and on assumptions that it believes are reasonable and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. |
| Segments |
Segments
The Company operates in one operating segment because the Company’s offerings operate on its single Customer Experience Management Platform, the Company’s products are deployed in a similar way, and the Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company’s financial information and assesses the performance of the Company on a consolidated basis. Because the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the consolidated financial statements.

| Leases |
Leases
On February 1, 2022, the Company adopted the lease accounting requirements of Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under Topic 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception, and leases are classified at commencement as either operating or finance leases. As of April 30, 2022, the Company did not have any finance leases.
Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement based on the present value of the minimum lease payments over the lease term. The Company utilizes certain practical expedients and policy elections available under Topic 842. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet. Additionally, the Company has elected not to separate lease components from non-lease components for all asset classes. Non-lease components that are not fixed are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. The Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. The rate is an estimate of the collateralized borrowing rate the Company would incur on future lease payments over a similar term.
The Company leases facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. Certain of the operating lease agreements contain rent concessions and rent escalations that are included in the present value calculation of minimum lease payments. Topic 842 requires that operating leases recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease term begins on the date the Company has the right to use the leased property. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. These options are included in the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company's lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees or covenants.
Prior to the February 1, 2022 adoption of Topic 842, ROU asset and lease liabilities were not recognized for operating leases. Rent concessions and rent escalation provisions were considered in determining the straight-line rent expense to be recovered over the lease term.

| Concentration of Risk and Significant Customers |
Concentration of Risk and Significant Customers
The Company has no significant off-balance sheet risks related to foreign currency exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign currency hedging arrangements. The Company’s financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Although the Company deposits its cash with multiple financial institutions, its deposits generally exceed federally insured limits. The Company’s accounts receivable are derived from invoiced customers located primarily in North America and Europe. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral.
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue in the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021.
In addition, the Company relies upon third-party hosted infrastructure partners globally to serve customers and operate certain aspects of its services, such as environments for development testing, training, sales demonstrations, and production usage. Given this, any disruption of or interference at the Company's hosted infrastructure partners would impact the Company’s operations and could adversely impact its business.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606. For further discussion of the Company’s accounting policies related to revenue see Note 3, Revenue Recognition.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation as an expense in the statements of operations based on the awards’ grant date fair values.
The Company estimates the fair value of service-based options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock options that include service, performance and market conditions are valued using the Monte-Carlo simulation model. The
Black-Scholes option pricing model requires inputs based on certain assumptions, including (a) the fair value per share of the Company's common stock (b) the expected stock price volatility, (c) the calculation of expected term of the award, (d) the risk-free interest rate and (e) expected dividends. A Monte-Carlo simulation is an analytical method used to estimate value by performing a large number of simulations or trial runs and determining a value based on the possible outcomes from these trial runs.
The fair value of stock-based payments is recognized as compensation expense, net of expected forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, with the exception of the fair value of stock-based payments for awards that include service, performance and market conditions which is recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period as achievement of the performance objective becomes probable.
The Company issued certain performance stock units (“PSUs”), that vest upon the satisfaction of time-based service, performance-based and market conditions. The Company estimates compensation cost based on the grant date fair value and recognize the expense on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award. As the PSUs are subject to a market condition (stock price), the grand date fair value is measured using a Monte Carlo simulation approach, which estimates the fair value of awards based on randomly generated simulated stock-price paths through a lattice-type structure. The performance-based vesting condition was satisfied upon the occurrence of a qualifying event, which was generally defined as a change in control transaction or the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act for the sale of the Company's common stock. Upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on June 22, 2021, the performance-based vesting condition was satisfied, and therefore, the Company commenced recognition of compensation expense using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period.
The Company estimates fair value of its restricted stock units (“RSU”) based on the fair value of the underlying common stock, net of estimated forfeitures. Subsequent to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) in June 2021, the Company determines the fair value using the closing price of its Class A common stock as reported on the date of grant.

| Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and additional changes, modifications, clarifications or interpretations related to this guidance thereafter (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires a reporting entity to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for operating leases to increase transparency and comparability. Effective February 1, 2022, the Company adopted the standard and elected the package of transition practical expedients that allowed the Company to carry forward prior conclusions related to: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; (ii) the classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases. Additionally, the Company elected the practical expedient of not separate lease components from non-lease components for all asset classes. The Company also made an accounting policy election not to record ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less and will recognize payments for such leases in its consolidated statement of operation on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recorded lease liabilities and corresponding ROU assets of approximately $14 million upon adoption of this standard.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, with subsequent amendments, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires immediate recognition of management’s estimates of current expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements.

| Revenue Recognition | Revenue RecognitionThe Company derives its revenues primarily from (i) subscription revenue, which consists of subscription fees from customers accessing the Company’s cloud-based software platform and applications, as well as related customer support services; and (ii) professional services revenue, which consists of fees associated with providing services that educate and assist the Company’s customers with the configuration and optimization of the Company’s software platform and applications. Professional services revenue also includes managed services fees where the Company’s consultants work as part of its customers’ teams to help leverage the subscription service to execute on their customer experience management goals. Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations
The Company executes arrangements that include multiple performance obligations (consisting of subscription and professional services). Additionally, the Company is often party to multiple concurrent contracts or contracts pursuant to which a client may purchase a combination of services. These situations require judgment to determine whether the multiple promises are separate performance obligations. Once the Company has determined the performance obligations, the Company determines the transaction price. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”) basis. The SSP is the price at which the Company would sell promised subscription or professional services separately to a customer. The determination of SSP for each distinct performance obligation requires judgement. The Company determines SSP based on its overall pricing objective, taking into consideration contractually stated prices, size of the arrangement, market conditions, costs, renewal contracts, list prices, internal discounting tables and other observable and unobservable inputs.
Costs to Obtain Customer Contracts Sales commissions and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the anticipated period of benefit. The Company determines the period of benefit by taking into consideration the length of its customer contracts, customer relationship period, technology lifecycle, and other factors. The Company has historically estimated such period of benefit to be three years. During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company updated the period of benefit, noting that recent customer relationship periods extended to an average period of five years. Accordingly, the Company noted a change in estimate of the amortization period of these costs and will prospectively amortize over a period of benefit of five years. Sales commissions paid for renewals are not commensurate with commissions paid on the initial contract given the substantive difference in commission rates in proportion to their respective contract values. Amortization expense is recorded in sales and marketing expense within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.
