Gallant Capital Partners (“Gallant”) announced that it has
signed a definitive agreement to acquire the Government Services
business (“NGS” or the “Company”) of Navient Corporation (Nasdaq:

NGS provides tech-enabled outsourced business processing to U.S.
federal, state, and local government clients. NGS is a leader in

other mission-critical services to government agencies including
call center support, revenue recovery services, program management,

Gallant’s second corporate carveout in the past year and we are

The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of
