EXTOL International, Inc., is a privately held corporation. It is an independent company, fully-funded by its own work, and operating on revenues from internal earnings, not venture capital or capital from an acquiring parent company.
This financial independence has allowed EXTOL to quickly adopt new technologies, to be flexible in executing a "whatever it takes" approach to client service and support, and to be agile in allocating internal resources to changing client and business priorities.
EXTOL is not just one division of a large parent company, nor does it have to answer to investors who have no direct interaction with EXTOL's clients or market space. As an independent company, EXTOL's management can set its own course and direction, and can respond quickly with individualized solutions to its marketplace requirements and opportunities.
As a result, EXTOL has accomplished what many independent technology companies never achieve: It has successfully stayed in business and experienced significant growth, through several economic cycles, major technological changes, and a refocusing of strategic business direction.
