Why this surfaced
The full financial analysis shows each value, threshold, and sector limitation.
- Revenue expanded
Latest reported annual revenue changed +25.9% from the prior reported annual observation.

Operating margin changed +16.6 percentage points from the prior annual period.
Why this surfaced

Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2026-01-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

Income Taxes During the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $ 1.0 million and $ 0.9 million of income tax expense, respectively. For the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the income tax expense was primarily driven by the current tax on foreign earnings. The effective tax rates for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 differed from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the valuation allowance on the majority of the Companys U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets and foreign rate differences. The Company evaluates its tax positions on a quarterly basis and revises its estimates accordingly. Gross unrecognized tax benefits were $ 15.1 million and $ 13.8 million as of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026 , respectively. The gross unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would not affect the effective tax rate due to the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets. The Company determined that no accrual for interest and penalties was required as of April 30, 2026 and $ 0.3 million was accrued for interest as of January 31, 2026. The Company does not anticipate the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.
