Sounds like you know very little about SHAFT. Of all of SHAFT's series, theres really only one(ish) that I would classify as Moe (Hidamari and possibly some of their very early stuff). While they certainly use fanservice in Monogatari, there is so much more to that show, which is why it is often reffered to as pretentious (I am going to avoid using those strange Otaku labels, but I think we both know which kind fall on the "pretentious" side of the spectrum). You could even look at Madoka and Pani Poni Dash and SoreMachi as parodies, making fun of the moe genre and playing off of expectations...
I think SHAFT is more about strange visual styles and experimentation than fan service and moe. If you want to talk about companies that focus on moe, look at Kyoani...
