Since founding, the company has executed both on an organic and M&A strategy to expand service offerings and drive revenue expansion opportunity through cross-sell/up-sell. Before partnering with New Harbor Capital in late 2022, Escalon completed two significant acquisitions which tripled the revenue of the company and expanded the FinOps capabilities of the platform. Continued corporate development is a key value driver for the business going forward, with a highly fragmented market of service providers, often individually unable to scale due to lack of technology-enablement and offshore capabilities.

In late 2022, New Harbor Capital made a growth equity investment in Escalon Services.
