BILLERICA, MA, February 22, 2005 - CSP Inc. (Nasdaq:CSPI), a provider of IT Solutions, systems integration services and dense cluster computing systems, today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 ended December 31, 2004.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2005, CSP Inc. reported that sales increased 22 percent to $14.4 million from $11.8 million for the year-earlier quarter. The Company reported first-quarter net income of $237,000 or $0.06 per share (diluted), compared with a net loss of $(228,000), or $(0.06) per share (diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2004.

"We continued the momentum we established last year and recorded another quarter of solid financial performance by both our MultiComputer and MODCOMP businesses," stated Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Alexander R. Lupinetti. "In fact, the first quarter represented our sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth."

Systems

"Demand for our StarGate 2923 and FastCluster 2942 open system multicomputers continued to drive growth of our Multicomputer Group in the first quarter as CSP captured a significant international contract win for both products," Lupinetti said. During the quarter, we launched our new line of fully ruggedized multicomputers, the FastCluster 220R, and shipped the first FastCluster 220R to a major defense contractor. The FastCluster 220R was selected because of CSP’s ability to have a high-quality, ruggedized product available for on-time deployment that conforms to the military specifications of the program.

"The FastCluster 220R product line responds to the needs of our defense customers seeking multicomputers for harsh and confined shipboard, airborne and land-mobile environments," said Lupinetti. The FastCluster 220R is targeted to the exacting military standards for fast and accurate digital signal and data processing for Command Control, Communications, Computer Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance applications.

Services and Systems Integration

CSP continued to see robust demand in the first quarter for MODCOMP’s integration consulting services for complex IT environments. One of the Company’s key growth drivers has been the trend toward consolidation of servers and associated storage systems. Over time, many companies’ IT environments become increasingly complex as they add servers and storage - sometimes from disparate vendors - to accommodate growth. By consolidating the number of servers and storage systems, MODCOMP helps these companies enhance their productivity and efficiency while reducing maintenance costs.

"Another area that is contributing to MODCOMP’s strong financial performance is network security consulting and maintenance," Lupinetti added. "We help our clients enhance their network security infrastructure by providing a sophisticated network analysis, determining the network’s vulnerabilities, and offering solutions to eliminate risks. Through our installation services, we use our expertise to custom configure, test and install a broad range of security software and hardware to ensure maximum security for our clients."

Going Forward

"We continue to see opportunities to capitalize on demand in each of our markets. We are attracting interest from defense customers worldwide for our open system multicomputers and are leveraging our expertise in IT systems integration to meet our customers’ needs for security and storage systems management. Throughout the remainder of fiscal 2005, we plan to build our pipeline of leading edge products through focused R&D investments and to execute on our growth strategy," concluded Lupinetti.
