“We chose to use Golub Capital to provide the subordinated debt financing for the Microporous acquisition because of their ability to quickly understand the strengths of the underlying business as well as their strong support for Microporous’ long-term growth initiatives. This was our fourth financing transaction with Golub Capital, and we had a high degree of confidence in their ability to execute on-time, as promised.”

“We felt comfortable with Golub Capital because they really understood the sector and provided a full solution in a market where very few parties are lending. After working with the Golub team on closing this deal, we are confident that Golub Capital will help us grow the company as we capitalize on opportunities within the logistics industry."
