Our research and development facilities and manufacturing capabilities ensure that every product we deliver is of the highest quality and competitively priced, combining advanced engineering with practical design. This is further supported through a best-in-class Account Management Team and technical support function.
Chiptech’s digital telecare products are renowned for their safety, elegance, and ease of use.

Review of the Business
Chiptech has grown into a trusted telecare technology leader, now employing 55 talented people. Our success is grounded in a clear strategy: building great products, empowering our people, and delivering meaningful social impact.
The year to 31 March 2025 marked another period of exceptional progress for Chiptech. Turnover increased by 49% to £22.0 million (2024: £14.7 million), alongside a significant improvement in profitability and strong cash generation. This performance reflects the continued strength of our capital and recurring-revenue model, sustained investment in product innovation, disciplined cost management, and the trust we have built with customers and partners across the UK and internationally. 
Chiptech today serves over 180 customer groups and Chiptech’s products support 250k elderly and vulnerable people in the UK saving over £2bn to Health and Social Care Services.
Industry Context and Market Leadership
The UK telecare sector is undergoing a major transformation with the analogue-to-digital switchover. Chiptech is proud to be leading this digital transition in Independent Living, holding an estimated 35% share of the UK digital market.
Our pioneering dual SIM technology and advanced roaming algorithms have set new standards for reliability and resilience, enhancing connectivity and safety across both the UK and wider Europe.

Our People and Culture
Our people remain the driving force behind everything we achieve. This year’s employee satisfaction score of over 90% reflects a culture built on respect, innovation, and shared purpose.
We are proud to have achieved an NPS score of 75, demonstrating our commitment to service, trust, and long-term relationships.
We continue to invest in personal and professional development, including leadership training, internships, and academic collaboration. Chiptech also funds research projects with Glasgow School of Art and Lancaster University, nurturing the next generation of design and engineering talent.
Research and Development
Innovation remains central to Chiptech’s success. We continue to invest heavily in R&D, developing new technologies that enhance user safety, system resilience, and long-term sustainability. These innovations strengthen our product portfolio and help shape the future of digital telecare across Europe. Chiptech have increased resources significantly in R&D which is now spread globally to be able to flex and adapt to local market conditions.
Community and Purpose
Beyond technology, we are proud of our community investment, supporting local causes, promoting inclusion, and driving positive impact where we operate. Our purpose remains clear: to design technology that helps people live safely and independently, while ensuring reliability for those who rely on our products most. We are also mindful of our environmental responsibilities. Chiptech incorporates reground plastics within its manufacturing processes where appropriate and has optimised product packaging to maximise shipment volumes. These measures reduce material waste, lower shipping requirements, and help minimise the carbon footprint associated with product distribution, while maintaining the quality and reliability our customers expect.
At the very end of the financial year ending 2024, Chiptech were proud to complete the purchase of our UK headquarters in Dalton Square, Lancaster. The new Chiptech HQ reflects our commitment to creating a workspace that inspires pride, attracts exceptional talent, and embodies our social values at the heart of the city. Through this move, we have deepened our connection with the local community, forming strong relationships with the Electec Innovation Cluster, Lancaster University, the Chamber of Commerce, and Lancaster City Council.
Our growth and contribution to community wellbeing also led to the honour of audiences with New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and His Majesty King Charles III, recognising Chiptech’s leadership in digital transformation, sustainability, and social care innovation.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s leadership team, supported by an advisory board and external advisers, actively reviews the principal risks and uncertainties facing the business and the actions in place to mitigate them.
Price risk:
The telecare market remains competitive, with potential downward pressure on margins. We mitigate this through supplier partnerships, value-added services, and maintaining our reputation for innovation and quality.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties - continued
Credit risk:
With trade debtors at £4.62 million, credit control remains a key focus. Rigorous checks, close monitoring, and strong customer relationships ensure low exposure. 
Market and economic risk:
Economic uncertainty and changes in public sector budgets can affect procurement cycles. Chiptech mitigates this through diversification, long-term contracts, and expansion into new markets.
Liquidity and cash flow:
Chiptech maintains a robust liquidity position, with operating cash flow of £3.18 million supporting investment in growth, R&D, and infrastructure.
Future Developments
Chiptech enters the next financial year from a position of strength and confidence. Building on our leadership in the UK digital switchover, we will continue to expand across Europe, with the launch of a new entity in Spain and distribution models in other key markets.
Looking ahead, data will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of social care. Chiptech will continue to lead this evolution through secure and interoperable data transmission, underpinned by strong governance, product and manufacturing excellence, and strategic platform partnerships.
Our focus remains on sustainable growth, technological excellence, and continuing to lead the way in digital telecare innovation.

Directors' Report
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Directors
The directors who held office during the year were as follows:
Mr David Hammond
Mr Graeme Moore
Matters covered in the Strategic Report
Disclosures required under s416(4) of the Companies Act 2006 are commented upon in the Strategic Report as the directors consider them to be of strategic importance to the business.
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the directors are required to: 
  • select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
  • make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
  • prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Statement of Disclosure of Information to Auditors
In the case of each director in office at the date the Directors' Report is approved: 
  • so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditors are unaware; and
  • they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

Independent Auditors
The auditors, Whitehead & Aldrich, have indicated their willingness to continue in office and a resolution concerning their re-appointment will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Independent Auditor's Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Chiptech International Limited for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".
In our opinion the financial statements:
  • give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its profit/(loss) for the year then ended;
  • have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
  • have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions Relating to Going Concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

Page 7
Opinions on Other Matters Prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
  • the information given in the Strategic Report and Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
  • the Strategic Report and Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on Which We Are Required to Report by Exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
  • adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
  • the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records or returns; or
  • certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
  • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Directors
As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 4—5, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 8
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 
- Enquiries with management, including directors, about any known or suspected instancies of non-compliance with laws or regulations and fraud.
- Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their significant accounting estimates.
- Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness.
Because of the field in which the client operates, we identified the following areas as those most likely to have a material impact on the financial statements: Competitive nature of the market, government legislation, manufacturers financial stability and influence, UK economy and compliance with employment law.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISA's (UK). For instance, the further removed non-compliance is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the auditor is to become aware of it or to recognise the non-compliance.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Other matters
The financial statements of the company for the year ended 31st March 2024 were not audited. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the comparative figures included in these financial statements.
Use Of Our Report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters that we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Chiptech International Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 11928721 . The registered office is Palatine Hall, Dalton Square, Lancaster, LA1 1PW.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'' and the Companies Act 2006.
2.2. Significant judgements and estimations
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The judgements and estimations that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows:
- The estimated useful life of the intangible fixed assets and the amortisation rates used thereon.
- The estimated useful life of the tangible fixed assets and the depreciation rates used thereon.
- The net realisable value of slow moving stock.
- The recoverability of the debtors.
2.3. Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Sale of goods
Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point that the customer has signed for the delivery of the goods.
Rendering of services
Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.
2.4. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Other Intangible
Other intangible assets are domain names. It is amortised to profit and loss account over its estimated economic life of 5 years.

2.5. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold No depreciation on freehold property
Leasehold improvements 4% on cost
Motor vehicles 25% on WDV
Fixtures, fittings and equipment 25% on cost
2.6. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.
Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
At the end of each reporting period stocks are assessed for impairment. If an item of stock is impaired, the identified stock is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment charge is recognised in the profit and loss account. Where a reversal of the impairment is required the impairment charge is reversed, up to the original impairment loss, and is recognised as a credit in the profit and loss account.
2.7. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
2.8. Foreign Currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit.
2.9. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

2.9. Taxation - continued
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case current and deferred tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
2.10. Operating leases
Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis.
