March 29, 2005

Bethesda, MD-- BroadPoint Technologies, Inc.

"This acquisition marks a significant milestone in the strategic growth of our company," stated Lee Raesly, CEO of BroadPoint.  "This solidifies our position as the premier application solutions partner for our clients.  With the blending of talent and resources we now bring to the table, our team is able to more effectively contribute to our clients' business success."

“In choosing BroadPoint as a partner for this transaction, we wanted to create a seamless transition for our people in this practice and for our clients and vendors.  BroadPoint shares similar values and commitment toward delivering trusted, talented expertise and proven results," claimed Richard LaFleur, Grant Thornton LLP Managing Partner in the Vienna, Virginia office.

Already recognized as a five-time participant in the Microsoft Business Solutions President's Club, BroadPoint will add to its credibility awards for Solutions Provider of the Year and SQL Solutions Provider of the Year, which were bestowed on the Grant Thornton application software practice by Advanced Solutions International.
