- Cash and cash equivalents
- The proportion of cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total assets experienced fluctuations over the six-year period, reaching a peak of 28.72% in the year ending January 31, 2020, then declining to 17.76% in 2022 before slightly recovering to 19.09% by 2024. This indicates a variable liquidity position over time, with a general downward trend from the 2020 peak.
- Marketable securities
- The share of marketable securities in total assets remained relatively low and stable from 2019 to 2021, between 1.12% and 1.43%. However, there was an increase starting in 2022, rising to 3.57% by 2024, suggesting a strategic shift toward holding more liquid investment assets.
- Accounts receivable, net
- The accounts receivable balance as a proportion of total assets showed moderate variability, with a peak of 10.56% in 2020, followed by a general decline to 8.84% in 2024. This pattern may reflect changes in credit policies or sales dynamics affecting receivable levels relative to asset size.
- Prepaid expenses and other current assets
- A relatively minor component, prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased sharply from 4.06% in 2019 to 2.64% in 2020, then gradually increased to 4.61% in 2024, returning close to the original level. This could indicate shifting timing or management of prepayments and other current asset categories.
- Current assets
- Current assets as a percentage of total assets rose sharply to 43.04% in 2020, representing the highest point in the period analyzed, then declined steadily to 36.11% in 2024. The spike in 2020 suggests an emphasis on liquidity or working capital in that fiscal year followed by normalization.
- Long-term marketable securities
- Data for long-term marketable securities first appears in 2022 at 0.53% and increased steadily to 2.36% by 2024. This indicates a growing allocation to longer-term investments within the asset structure during recent years.
- Computer equipment, software, furniture, and leasehold improvements, net
- This asset category shows a consistent downward trend from 3.17% in 2019 to 1.22% in 2024, signaling possible asset disposals, depreciation, or a strategic move away from capital-intensive physical assets.
- Operating lease right-of-use assets
- Starting at 7.10% in 2020, the proportion of operating lease right-of-use assets gradually declined to 2.26% in 2024, demonstrating decreasing lease-related asset commitments possibly due to changes in leasing strategy or lease expirations.
- Intangible assets, net
- Intangible assets as a share of total assets declined from 5.94% in 2019 to 2.74% in 2021, then increased to 5.74% in 2022 before declining again to 4.10% in 2024. This volatility may reflect changes in capitalization policies, amortization schedules, or acquisition activity.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill exhibits a strong downward trend from a high of 51.82% in 2019 to 36.85% in 2024. This substantial reduction suggests impairment charges, divestitures, or fewer acquisitions, impacting the company’s recognized goodwill on the balance sheet.
- Deferred income taxes, net
- Deferred income taxes started low at 1.38% in 2019, rose sharply to 10.48% in 2021, and continued to increase slightly to 11.03% by 2024, indicating growing temporary differences between book and tax bases or changes in tax planning and recognition.
- Long-term other assets
- Long-term other assets showed a gradual increase from 3.44% in 2019 to 6.07% in 2024, suggesting incremental additions to miscellaneous long-term investments or assets, contributing to the growth of long-term asset components.
- Long-term assets
- The overall percentage of long-term assets rose from 56.96% in 2020 to a peak of 67.89% in 2022, then declined to 63.89% in 2024. This indicates a strategic emphasis on long-term asset holdings particularly between 2020 and 2022, with a slight retrenchment thereafter.
- Total assets
- Total assets are, by definition, constant at 100% each year, serving as the base for proportional analysis of other categories.
