Non-GAAP Income (Loss) From Operations and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)
Previous wording
We define non-GAAP loss from operations as loss from operations plus stock-based compensation expense and the related employer payroll tax associated with RSUs, impairment of long-lived assets, as well as non-recurring costs, such as restructuring costs. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on our stock price and other factors that are beyond our control and that do not correlate to the operation of the business. When evaluating the performance of our business and making operating plans, we do not consider these items (for example, when considering the impact of equity award grants, we place a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants). We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business, to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies, and to facilitate comparison over multiple periods.
Current wording
We define non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as loss from operations plus stock-based compensation expense and the related employer payroll tax associated with RSUs, impairment of long-lived assets, and restructuring costs. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on our stock price and other factors that are beyond our control and that do not correlate to the operation of the business. The restructuring costs are related to the reduction of our global workforce, which resulted in expenses related to severance, benefits, and other related items. When evaluating the performance of our business and making operating plans, we do not consider these items (for example, when considering the impact of equity award grants, we place a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants). We believe the costs associated with restructuring are distinguishable from ongoing operating costs and are not reflective of underlying trends in our business. We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business, to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies, and to facilitate comparison over multiple periods.

We use non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss in conjunction with traditional GAAP measures to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss provide our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations.

We define free cash flow as net cash from operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software costs, plus non-recurring expenditures such as restructuring costs. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors, even if negative, about the amount of cash used in our operations other than that used for investments in property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software costs, adjusted for non-recurring expenditures.

Repurchases are made on the open market, including via pre-set trading plans, in accordance with applicable securities laws. The program is funded using our working capital and will expire in June 2025. The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, we repurchased 4.5 million and 5.9 million shares, respectively, of our outstanding Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of$55.0 million and $74.7 million, respectively. All shares of Class A common stock repurchased were retired. As of October 31, 2024,$75.3 million remained available for future repurchases under the stock repurchase program. See Note 10.

Current wording
In June 2024, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $150.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases are made on the open market, including via pre-set trading plans, in accordance with applicable securities laws. The Repurchase Program is funded using our working capital and was initially authorized through June 2025. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock, and the Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion. During the three months ended April 30, 2025, we repurchased 1.0 million shares of our outstanding Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of$15.6 million. All shares of Class A common stock repurchased were retired. On May 30, 2025, our board of directors amended the Repurchase Program to remove the expiration date of the Repurchase Program and authorized the repurchase of an additional $100.0 million of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Program. As of April 30, 2025,$56.0 million remained available for future stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program, and the Company now has a total of $156.0 million available for future repurchases under the Repurchase Program. The Repurchase Program, as amended, has no specified expiration date and will continue until the funds committed to the Repurchase Program are exhausted or such authorization is revoked by our board of directors.

A substantial source of our cash provided by operating activities is our customer billings for subscription to our platform. Deferred revenue consists of the unearned portion of billed fees for our subscriptions, which is included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a liability and is recorded as revenues over the term of the subscription agreement. As of October 31, 2024, we had $282.1 million of deferred revenue, of which $279.6 million was recorded as a current liability. This deferred revenue will be recognized as revenues when all of the revenue recognition criteria are met.

Previous wording
We assess our liquidity primarily through our cash on hand as well as the projected timing of billings under contract with our paying customers and related collection cycles. We believe our current cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and amounts available under our November 2022 Senior Secured Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate, subscription renewal activity, billing frequency, our dollar-based-net-retention rate, the timing and extent of spending to support our research and development efforts, particularly for the introduction of new and enhanced products and features, including the integration of AI in our product, the performance of sales and marketing activities, costs associated with international expansion, additional capital expenditures to invest in existing and new office spaces, as well as increased general and administrative expenses to support being a publicly traded company. We may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, services, and technologies, including intellectual property rights. We may seek to raise additional funds at any time through equity, equity-linked arrangements, and debt. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired and at reasonable rates, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected. Additionally, cash from operations could also be affected by various risks and uncertainties in connection with the impact of an economic downturn or recession, significant market volatility in the global economy, timing and ability to collect payments from our customers and other risks detailed in Part II—Other Information, Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate, subscription renewal activity, billing frequency, our dollar-based-net-retention rate, the timing and extent of spending to support our research and development efforts, particularly for the introduction of new and enhanced products and features, including the integration of AI in our products, the performance of sales and marketing activities, costs associated with international expansion, additional capital expenditures to invest in existing and new office spaces, as well as increased general and administrative expenses to support being a publicly traded company. We may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, services, and technologies, including intellectual property rights. We may seek to raise additional funds at any time through equity, equity-linked arrangements, and debt. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired and at reasonable rates, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected. Additionally, cash from operations could also be affected by various risks and uncertainties in connection with the impact of an economic downturn or recession, significant market volatility in the global economy, timing and ability to collect payments from our customers and other risks detailed in Part II—Other Information, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
