Jack Fryer, Chairman, Celoxica, commented...

"Following the successful fund raising in February, very good progress has been made in converting Celoxica from an Electronic Design Automation company into one which focuses on the High Performance Computing market. Consequently the Company has made the decision to dispose of its traditional ESL business and is currently in discussions with interested parties. Celoxica has been reorganised to enable the key areas of Financial Services, Oil and Gas and Life Sciences to be addressed and we now have significant customer engagements in each of these.

The Company is also seeking to raise funds for working capital purposes and has the support of its key existing investors and potential new investors in doing so."
