Liquidity Ratios (Summary)
CrowdStrike Holdings Inc., liquidity ratios (quarterly data)
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2026-01-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-10-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-07-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-04-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2025-01-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-10-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-07-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-04-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-01-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-10-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-07-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-04-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-01-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-10-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-07-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-04-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-01-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-10-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-07-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-04-30).
The liquidity position, as indicated by the current, quick, and cash ratios, demonstrates a generally stable, though slightly declining, trend over the observed period. While fluctuations exist, the ratios remain within a relatively narrow range, suggesting a consistent ability to meet short-term obligations. A subtle weakening in liquidity is apparent towards the end of the period, followed by some recovery.
- Current Ratio
- The current ratio experienced a gradual decrease from 2.07 to a low of 1.73 between April 2021 and January 2023. A slight recovery is then observed, peaking at 1.90 in July 2024, before declining again to 1.77 by January 2026. This suggests a moderate decrease in the company’s ability to cover current liabilities with current assets, followed by a partial rebound. The overall trend remains relatively stable, indicating consistent, though fluctuating, short-term solvency.
- Quick Ratio
- The quick ratio mirrors the trend of the current ratio, declining from 1.93 to 1.58 over the initial period, ending January 2023. Similar to the current ratio, a recovery is seen, reaching 1.72 in April 2024, before decreasing to 1.58 by January 2026. The quick ratio’s movement indicates a consistent pattern in the company’s ability to meet short-term obligations using its most liquid assets, excluding inventory. The decline and subsequent partial recovery suggest a similar dynamic to that observed in the current ratio.
- Cash Ratio
- The cash ratio exhibits a more pronounced downward trend, decreasing from 1.71 in April 2021 to a low of 1.25 in January 2026. While some fluctuations occur, the overall trajectory is consistently downward. This indicates a decreasing proportion of current assets held as cash, potentially suggesting a strategic shift in asset allocation or increased investment in other current assets. The ratio remains above 1.0 throughout the period, indicating the company consistently holds more cash than its immediate liabilities, but the decreasing trend warrants monitoring.
In summary, the observed liquidity ratios suggest a generally healthy, but gradually evolving, short-term financial position. The declines in the quick and cash ratios, while not drastic, indicate a potential shift in asset composition and a moderate decrease in immediate liquidity. The slight recoveries observed in the current and quick ratios towards mid-period offer some offset, but the overall trend suggests a need for continued monitoring of liquidity management practices.

The current ratio exhibited a generally declining trend over the observed period, followed by some stabilization and minor fluctuations. Initially, the ratio decreased from 2.07 to 1.73 between April 2021 and January 2023. Subsequently, it showed some volatility, increasing to 1.82 in July 2023 before decreasing again to 1.77 in January 2026. While fluctuations occurred, the ratio largely remained within a narrow band between 1.73 and 1.90 for the majority of the period following the initial decline.
- Overall Trend
- The current ratio demonstrated an initial decrease, suggesting a potential reduction in the company’s ability to meet its short-term obligations with its short-term assets. However, this decline appeared to moderate in later periods, with the ratio stabilizing around the 1.7 to 1.9 range. The most recent values indicate a slight decrease, but remain within the historical range.
- Short-Term Fluctuations
- Minor increases were observed in April 2022 (to 1.83), April 2023 (to 1.82), and April 2024 (to 1.90), potentially indicating temporary improvements in liquidity. Conversely, decreases were noted in October 2021, January 2023, and October 2025, suggesting periods of potentially reduced liquidity. These fluctuations, however, were relatively small in magnitude.
- Recent Performance
- The current ratio stood at 1.77 in January 2026, representing a slight decrease from the 1.81 observed in October 2025. This recent movement warrants monitoring to determine if it signals a renewed downward trend or is simply a temporary variation. The ratio remains above 1.0, indicating that current assets still exceed current liabilities, but the trend suggests a potential weakening of the short-term liquidity position.
- Underlying Components
- The decline in the current ratio appears to be driven by a faster rate of growth in current liabilities compared to current assets. While both components increased over the period, current liabilities consistently exhibited a higher percentage increase, contributing to the observed downward pressure on the ratio. The period from April 2021 to January 2026 saw current assets increase by approximately 138%, while current liabilities increased by approximately 225%.

1 Q4 2026 Calculation
Quick ratio = Total quick assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 6,591,969 ÷ 4,184,192 = 1.58
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The quick ratio for the analyzed period demonstrates a generally stable, though slightly declining, trend over the observed timeframe. Initially, the ratio begins at 1.93 and fluctuates within a relatively narrow range before exhibiting a modest decrease towards the end of the period.
- Overall Trend
- From April 2021 to January 2023, the quick ratio experienced a gradual decline from 1.93 to 1.58. A slight recovery is then observed, peaking at 1.72 in April 2023, before resuming a downward trajectory, ending at 1.58 in January 2026. The overall movement suggests a consistent, but not dramatic, reduction in the company’s ability to meet its short-term obligations with its most liquid assets.
- Short-Term Fluctuations
- There are several instances of short-term increases and decreases. For example, a rise from 1.58 in January 2023 to 1.72 in April 2023, followed by a decline to 1.62 in October 2025. These fluctuations likely reflect changes in the timing of current asset and current liability recognition.
- Asset and Liability Dynamics
- Total quick assets increased consistently throughout the period, growing from 1,896,230 to 6,591,969. However, current liabilities experienced a more substantial increase, rising from 982,765 to 4,184,192. The faster growth of current liabilities relative to quick assets is the primary driver of the observed decline in the quick ratio.
- Recent Performance
- The most recent quarters show a stabilization around the 1.58-1.69 range. While still representing a decrease from the initial value, this suggests a potential leveling off of the downward trend. The quick ratio in the final period is consistent with the value observed in January 2023.
In conclusion, while the company maintains a quick ratio generally above 1.0, indicating sufficient liquid assets to cover immediate liabilities, the observed trend warrants continued monitoring. The increasing current liabilities relative to quick assets suggest a potential need for attention to working capital management.

1 Q4 2026 Calculation
Cash ratio = Total cash assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 5,230,125 ÷ 4,184,192 = 1.25
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The cash ratio for the analyzed period demonstrates a generally decreasing trend, with some fluctuations. Initially, the ratio exhibits a value of 1.71, indicating a strong ability to meet current obligations with available cash. However, over the subsequent quarters, the ratio generally declines, reaching a low of 1.25 in both October 2025 and January 2026.
- Overall Trend
- From April 2021 to January 2026, the cash ratio experienced a general downward trajectory. While not a precipitous decline, the consistent decrease suggests a relative growth in current liabilities compared to total cash assets. There are periods of stabilization and minor increases, but the overall pattern points towards a diminishing cushion of immediately available cash to cover short-term debts.
- Initial Phase (Apr 30, 2021 – Jan 31, 2022)
- The cash ratio decreased from 1.71 to 1.42 over this period. This initial decline suggests a moderate increase in current liabilities relative to cash holdings. Despite the decrease, the ratio remained above 1.40, indicating a comfortable liquidity position.
- Stabilization and Fluctuation (Apr 30, 2022 – Jan 31, 2024)
- This phase shows more variability. The ratio fluctuates between 1.41 and 1.48, suggesting a period of relative stability with minor adjustments in the balance between cash and current liabilities. A slight increase to 1.48 is observed in July 2023, followed by a decrease to 1.29 in January 2024.
- Recent Period (Apr 30, 2024 – Jan 31, 2026)
- The most recent period exhibits the lowest values for the cash ratio. A decrease to 1.25 is observed in both October 2025 and January 2026. This suggests a potentially weakening liquidity position, as the company’s ability to cover current liabilities with immediately available cash is diminishing. The ratio briefly recovers to 1.43 in July 2025, but this is not sustained.
In summary, while the cash ratio consistently remains above 1.0 throughout the analyzed period, indicating the company possesses more cash than current liabilities, the observed downward trend warrants attention. Continued monitoring of this ratio is recommended to assess any potential risks to short-term financial health.
