Steve Gardner, the company's president and CEO stated, "We are very pleased to participate in this transaction and expand our relationship with Wingate Partners. The combination of IGI and Nekoosa is an attractive opportunity given the similarities in manufacturing processes and strong relationships with their respective channel partners, and we look forward to their continued expansion and success. This investment increases our total year-to-date new investment activity to $72 million, and middle market non-energy investments now make up approximately 18 percent of our investment portfolio."
