Boise, ID – November 20, 2025 – TELEO Capital Management, LLC (“TELEO”) has announced the acquisition and formation of NumoData from EXFO, opening a new chapter in AI-driven service assurance innovation.

Employees and leadership from EXFO’s ASA division are transitioning to NumoData. EXFO retains a minority stake in the new company, and Philippe Morin will join NumoData’s board of directors to support a smooth transition and ongoing collaboration.

NumoData is positioned at the forefront of this shift, investing heavily in AIOps to help CSPs unlock new value from their networks.
