It marks the conclusion of a close and collaborative partnership during which ECLAT evolved from a provider-focused revenue cycle services business into a scaled, diversified healthcare services platform serving providers and payors across the United States. During Gulf Capital\u2019s ownership, ECLAT increased profitability by more than 10 times in five years, representing an EBITDA compound annual growth rate of 75%.<\/p>\n<p>For Gulf Capital and its Fund III investors, the exit represents one of the most successful realizations in the Firm\u2019s history and highlights its ability to build global market-leading platforms through active ownership and deep operational value creation. For ECLAT\u2019s founders and management team, the transaction opens a new chapter as they take forward a business that is significantly larger, more diversified, technology-enabled, and well positioned for the next phase of growth.<\/p>\n<p>Gulf Capital invested in ECLAT with a shared ambition alongside the founders to build a differentiated healthcare services platform defined by scale, breadth, technology and long-term value. From the outset, both partners worked closely to expand the company\u2019s service offering, geographic reach and end-markets, while strengthening the leadership team to support accelerated growth.<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of the partnership, ECLAT broadened its capabilities across healthcare services by adding complementary verticals that enhanced its delivery model and deepened its value proposition to clients. The deliberate expansion of revenue cycle management capabilities introduced new offerings that drove strong organic growth and attracted a growing base of blue-chip healthcare customers.<\/p>\n<p>A further pillar of the growth strategy was investment in the payor segment and in technology. This included the development of evaire, ECLAT\u2019s proprietary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebluewhale.ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AI<\/a> and analytics platform, powered by agentic AI and ECLAT\u2019s deep payer expertise, supporting end-to-end chart retrieval and review, risk adjustment coding, Confidence Scoring, payer analytics and related use cases. These initiatives helped strengthen ECLAT\u2019s ability to deliver technology-enabled solutions while improving efficiency, compliance and outcomes for customers.<\/p>\n<p>The execution of this strategy translated into meaningful operational scale. ECLAT expanded its service coverage nationally, grew its delivery footprint and back office from two to six offices across India and the Philippines, and increased its workforce from 450 employees to more than 4,000 across the United States, India and the Philippines. Over the course of the partnership, the business delivered ten-fold growth in both revenues and EBITDA, reflecting Gulf Capital\u2019s and ECLAT leadership\u2019s deep focus on operational improvements and value creation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mohammad Madani, Managing Director at Gulf Capital, said:<\/strong> \u201cThis investment exemplifies Gulf Capital\u2019s approach to partnering with exceptional founders and management teams and supporting them in building differentiated, high-quality platforms. Together with ECLAT\u2019s leadership team, we scaled ECLAT into a diversified and technology-enabled RCM and risk adjustment business serving clients across the U.S., making it one of the standout successes of our Fund III portfolio. This investment highlights Gulf Capital\u2019s proven Control Growth Buyout model, where we acquire majority stakes in leading businesses and accelerate their growth and profitability before executing successful exits. We are proud of what has been accomplished in this investment and are confident in ECLAT\u2019s continued momentum under its founders\u2019 and management team\u2019s leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fouad Daher, Executive Director at Gulf Capital, said:<\/strong> \u201cECLAT\u2019s evolution reflects a partnership built on conviction, constant momentum and a shared determination to build something exceptional through relentless execution. Together with Karthik, Gabe, Sneha and the broader leadership team, we expanded the platform meaningfully across services, geographies, technology and talent, creating a business of real scale, resilience and strategic depth. The quality and resilience of the platform today reflect the depth of what was built together, and with the foundations now firmly in place, we believe the most exciting chapter for ECLAT is still to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karthik Polsani, Founder and Group CEO of ECLAT Health Solutions, said:<\/strong> \u201cWhen we partnered with Gulf Capital in 2020, we had a clear vision for what ECLAT could become\u2014and together, we executed against that vision with focus, discipline and ambition. Gulf Capital was a true strategic partner throughout the journey, supporting us in strengthening our leadership team, expanding our capabilities and scaling the business to new levels of performance. This partnership helped transform ECLAT into a stronger, more resilient organization with a clear platform for long-term growth.
