There is a new package called orderless which implements a completion-style which can be used for for company-capf backends as well (supports initialism matching like flx and more). The benefit is that it is very fast because it use the C implemented all-completions with some magic regexps added to completion-regexp-list.

Others interesting in this sort of matching might find it useful to find it mentioned in the README. I can do it if you like.

Describing flx as "initialism matching" is quite a simplification. I've looked at orderless and it is not substitute for flx.
