News and Information Article
MINNEAPOLIS, May 8 // -- xTech, an information services
company that enables online commerce and direct marketing companies to
secure more profitable customers while preventing fraud and identify theft,
today announced that it has completed an $8 million round of Series A
financing from Split Rock Partners. Michael Gorman and Jim Simons, managing
directors of Split Rock Partners, have joined the xTech board of directors.
"This financing will give us the ability to meet the demand for
next-generation decision support solutions that help companies sell more
and sell safely," said Gordy Meyer, CEO of xTech. "In addition to the
investment capital, Split Rock Partners also brings us industry
relationships and counsel that will help us achieve our business goals."
This capital will be used to further accelerate xTechs growth by
hiring additional sales and support personnel, investing in R&D, and
increasing market awareness for the companys products and services.
xTech delivers decision support solutions that help e-commerce and
direct marketing firms develop profitable customer relationships while
preventing fraud and identity theft. xTech has developed proprietary data
mining software which sifts through more than 30 billion records to deliver
unique customer intelligence at sub-second speeds. xTech clients also
benefit from an industry first: automated electronic scoring (eScore)
technology which enables the development of customized statistical scores
in a matter of hours, compared to the months necessary to deliver similar
scores by legacy service providers. With eScore technology, companies have
the ability to develop, test, and modify statistical scores.
"Gordy Meyer and the xTech team are delivering innovative solutions to
the challenges facing online commerce and direct marketing companies," said
Michael Gorman, managing director of Split Rock Partners. "xTechs
customers need to make data-driven decisions regarding customer
acquisition, credit and fraud prevention that enable them to quickly react
to changing market dynamics while carefully managing the risk of fraud and
identify theft. xTech has responded to that challenge by developing systems
which quickly and reliably transform extraordinary volumes of raw data into
meaningful customer insight."
"xTech has a compelling value proposition for its customers, a robust
technical platform, and a proven team committed to delivering results,"
said Jim Simons, a managing director of Split Rock Partners. "We look
forward to working with Gordy and his team as they take xTech to the next
stage in its development as a category leader."
