This week, FinQuery (formerly LeaseQuery), a provider of AI-powered solutions, announced a $25 million minority investment led by Periphas Capital and supported by Lavelle Capital. The funding will accelerate product innovation and support strategic mergers and acquisitions.
FinQuery’s AI-driven SaaS platform unifies finance, accounting, and IT by managing their largest areas of contracted spend, including leases, software, subscriptions, and other financial contracts delivering insights into spending, software usage, cash flow forecasts, and renewals. That empowers informed decision-making and simplifying accounting tasks like lease accounting, SBITA reporting and accruals.
“We’re thrilled to have Periphas Capital and Lavelle Capital join FinQuery as investors,” said George Azih, CEO and founder. “Their enthusiasm for our mission is evident, and with their support, we anticipate an acceleration in our growth, both organically and through strategic acquisitions. We’re humbled to have grown our customer base by 300% in the last two years and excited to serve even more as we expand.”
“The FinQuery team, led by George Azih, has built the industry-leading SaaS solution to manage and report on leases, software, and other contracts,” said Sanjeev Mehra, managing partner of Periphas Capital. “FinQuery is poised to continue its rapid growth as it leverages AI, delivers cutting-edge product capabilities, and pursues strategic M&A. We are excited that our investment will accelerate FinQuery’s penetration of the growing market for office of the CFO software.”
“We are excited to be investing in FinQuery, supporting George and his team,” stated Sanjeev Rao, managing partner at Lavelle Capital. “We believe that FinQuery is simplifying and automating office of the CFO workflows, and setting new innovation and customer satisfaction standards. Our investment extends beyond capital; we’re committed to enhancing their growth by leveraging our strategic network and benefiting from our expertise.”
Established in 2011 as LeaseQuery, FinQuery’s core goal is simplifying complex accounting and compliance tasks arising from ASC 842, IFRS 16, GASB 87, and GASB 96. The company has evolved into a lease accounting software provider, serving 8,000-plus clients, including more than 600 public companies, universities and government entities.
With three acquisitions to date, including Stackshine, a Y-combinator-backed SaaS spend management platform, the company continues to expand its offerings beyond lease accounting.
