Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $2.6 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The provisions recorded during both the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 were driven by the increase in global income and the associated foreign taxes as the Company continues its global expansion. The calculation of income taxes was based upon the estimated annual effective tax rates for the year applied to the jurisdictional mix of current period loss before tax plus the tax effect of any significant unusual items, discrete events or changes in tax law.
The Company regularly assesses the need for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. In making that assessment, the Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of the deferred tax assets to determine, based on the weight of available evidence, whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has maintained a valuation allowance on U.S., U.K. and Ireland net deferred tax assets, as it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company assesses uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainties in Tax. As of January 31, 2024, the Company’s net unrecognized tax benefits totaled $81.6 million, $0.7 million of which would have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) published Pillar Two Model Rules defining a global minimum tax, which calls for the taxation of large corporations at a minimum rate of 15%. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Effective in the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ending January 31, 2025, a number of countries have proposed or enacted legislation to implement core elements of the Pillar Two proposal. Pillar Two did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 30, 2024. While the Company is monitoring developments and evaluating the potential impact on future periods, the Company does not expect Pillar Two to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025.
The Company continues to monitor and interpret the impact of proposed and enacted global tax legislation. To date, globally enacted tax legislation has not materially impacted income tax expense of the financial statements due to the presence of net operating losses and full valuation allowances within the Company’s two most significant tax jurisdictions, the United States and Ireland.
