CSP
Inc. Announces Sale of Scanalytics, Inc.
Allows Company to Focus Fully on Core MultiComputer and MODCOMP Businesses
BILLERICA,
MA, July 1, 2005 - CSP Inc. (Nasdaq:CSPI), a provider of IT Solutions, systems integration services and dense
cluster computing systems, today announced the sale of the assets of its Scanalytics, Inc. subsidiary to Atto Bioscience, Inc.
in a cash transaction valued at $453,000.
A developer of quantitative image analysis software for the life sciences
and biotechnology research community, Scanalytics' software is used by research scientists in life science research
institutions worldwide. Atto Bioscience, a subsidiary of Beckton, Dickinson and Company, specializes in optical
instrumentation, software, and reagents for real-time analysis of interactions taking place in living cells.
CSP Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Alexander R. Lupinetti
said, "Although Scanalytics has expanded its software product lines and its indirect channel partner relationships,
its business has become increasingly non-strategic for CSP. This transaction will allow us to focus all of our assets
and energies on the MultiComputer Division and MODCOMP - CSP's core businesses - where we continue to see solid
prospects for growth."
