Fair Value Measurements

6 Months Ended

Oct. 31, 2020

Fair Value MeasurementsThe 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 following table summarizes assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020 (in thousands):


October 31, 2020	Level 1		Level 2	Level 3	Total
Financial Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	175,007	—	—	$	175,007


April 30, 2020	Level 1		Level 2	Level 3	Total
Financial Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	197,314	—	—	$	197,314

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 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value of its Level 1 investments in money market funds.
