Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
Financial Assets
The Company measures financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company considers all highly liquid investments, including money market funds with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.
The Company’s marketable securities are classified as available for sale and considered to be available for use in current operations and, therefore, the Company classifies them within current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value of its Level 1 investments. For Level 2 investments, the Company uses 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 following table summarizes assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 31, 2026 (in thousands):
