| Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Fiscal Year The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. For example, references to fiscal 2027 refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, which was filed with the SEC on March 20, 2026. In management’s opinion, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2026 and the results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025. The condensed balance sheet as of January 31, 2026 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future interim or annual period. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Snowflake, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and, prior to October 31, 2025, a majority-owned subsidiary in which the Company had a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company recorded noncontrolling interest in its condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 30, 2025 to recognize the minority ownership interest in its majority-owned subsidiary. Profits and losses of the majority-owned subsidiary were attributed to controlling and noncontrolling interests using the hypothetical liquidation at book value method. Segment Information The Company has a single operating and reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, including, but not limited to, the Company’s consolidated net loss, for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. The following table presents selected financial information with respect to the Company’s single operating segment (in thousands):
(1)Third-party cloud infrastructure expenses incurred in connection with customers’ use of the Snowflake platform and the deployment and maintenance of the platform on public clouds, including different regional deployments, represented approximately 73% and 68% of cost of product revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. (2)Personnel-related expenses, excluding stock-based compensation and associated payroll taxes, represented approximately 37% and 34% of the Company’s total cost of revenue and operating expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, bonuses, and sales commissions and draws paid to the Company’s sales force, including amortization of deferred commissions, and associated payroll taxes. They also include salaries, benefits, and bonuses allocated as part of overhead costs. See Note 12, “Equity,” for details regarding the Company’s stock-based compensation. The measure of segment assets is the total assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. See the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for other financial information regarding its operating segment. For information regarding the Company’s revenue by geographic area, see Note 3, “Revenue, Accounts Receivable, Deferred Revenue, and Remaining Performance Obligations.” The following table presents the Company’s long-lived assets, comprising property and equipment, net and operating lease right-of-use assets, by geographic area (in thousands):
________________ (1)No individual country outside of the United States accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s long-lived assets as of each of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, stand-alone selling prices (SSP) for each distinct performance obligation, software development costs, the expected period of benefit for deferred commissions, the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations, the useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, the carrying value of operating lease right-of-use assets, stock-based compensation, accounting for income taxes, and the fair value of investments in marketable and non-marketable securities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and also on assumptions that management considers reasonable. These estimates are assessed on a regular basis; however, actual results could differ from these estimates. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in “Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, which was filed with the SEC on March 20, 2026. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies during the three months ended April 30, 2026. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606, including those assets acquired in a business combination. The practical expedient permits an entity to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2026 on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which simplifies the capitalization guidance related to internal-use software by removing all references to software development projects stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. The Company early adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2026 on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements. This guidance is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning February 1, 2027 and interim periods within its fiscal year beginning February 1, 2028 on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its disclosures. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants. This guidance is effective for the Company for its fiscal year and all interim periods beginning February 1, 2029 on either a modified prospective, modified retrospective or full retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies interim reporting requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. This guidance is effective for the Company for all interim periods beginning February 1, 2028 on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
