Baxter International Inc.

Conflict Minerals Report

For The Year Ended December 31, 2023

This Conflict Minerals Report for the year ended December 31, 2023 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Rule 13p-1). Rule 13p-1 imposes certain reporting obligations on Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registrants whose manufactured products contain minerals specified in Rule 13p-1 that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. These minerals are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (collectively 3TG) for the purposes of Rule 13p-1. These requirements apply to registrants regardless of the geographic origin of the 3TGs and whether or not they fund armed conflict.

Certain products manufactured by Baxter International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the Company, Baxter, we, our, or us, unless the context otherwise requires) are comprised of materials and components that contain 3TG that are necessary to the functionality and/or production of such product (see “Product Description” below). Due to the depth of its supply chain, the Company is far removed from the sources of ore from which these metals are produced and the smelters and refiners that process those ores. Additionally, the amount of information available globally on the traceability and sourcing of these ores is extremely limited, which is a situation that is not unique to the Company. As a result, the efforts undertaken by the Company to identify the countries of origin of those ores reflect the Company’s respective position in the supply chain and the challenge presented to it by the limited availability of information. The Company has taken steps to identify the applicable smelters and refiners of the 3TG in its supply chain and their respective source, but in general, the Company believes that these smelters and refiners are best situated to identify the sources and countries of origin of these metals. The efforts described herein were undertaken on the products manufactured by the Company (as described below) during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Product Description

The Company, through its subsidiaries, provides a broad portfolio of essential healthcare products, including acute and chronic dialysis therapies; sterile intravenous solutions; infusion systems and devices; parenteral nutrition therapies; inhaled anesthetics; generic injectable pharmaceuticals; surgical hemostat and sealant products; advanced surgical equipment; smart bed systems; patient monitoring and diagnostic technologies; and respiratory health devices.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, this Conflict Minerals Report covers products manufactured, directly or indirectly, by the Company in that year. Company products that are subject to disclosure under Rule 13p-1 include, but are not limited to: hemodialysis machines, monitors, infusion pumps, smart bed systems, patient monitoring and diagnostic technologies and respiratory heath devices. The table below provides examples of where 3TG may be present in the Company’s products:

Metal	Industry Applications	Applications in the Company Products
Tantalum Refined from Columbite-tantalite (coltan)	Capacitors, resistors	Tantalum Capacitors, Alloys
Tin Refined from Cassiterite	Chemical solutions, capacitors, electrodes, Tin alloys, dioxide, electroplating	Integrated circuits, pins, resistors, capacitors, printed circuit boards, and soldering
Tungsten Refined from Wolframite	Tungsten Carbide, Alloy, light bulb, heating elements, and Tungsten Inert Gas Welding	Electrodes, welding
Gold	Electrical wiring, connectors, contact, and gold plating	Contacts, pins, connectors, cable harness, wire harness, gold plating

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI)

Direct suppliers of materials reasonably believed by the Company to contain 3TG were asked to provide answers to the Responsible Minerals Initiative’s (RMI) Conflict Mineral Reporting Template (CMRT) reflecting the Company’s position in the supply chain as described above. The RMI CMRT is generally regarded as the preferred reporting tool for 3TG content and sourcing information worldwide.

The Company, in conjunction with a third-party vendor, reviewed the CMRTs received for completeness and consistency of answers. Suppliers were asked to provide corrections and clarifications where needed. As a result, the Company believes that its RCOI process was reasonably designed and performed in good faith.

In 2023, the Company surveyed 200 significant suppliers, of which 70% responded. However, these responses reflect the supplier’s overall supply chain and do not specify whether the 3TG was used in materials supplied to the Company.

Due Diligence

Design of due diligence

The Company’s overall Conflict Minerals Program is designed to conform to the five-step framework of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the relevant supplements on 3TG, as applicable to the Company’s circumstances and position in the supply chain as a “downstream” company with no direct influence on smelters and refiners. The Company designed its due diligence measures to conform in all material respects with the due diligence framework relevant to 3TGs provided by the OECD.

The large majority of the responses received provided data at the supplier company level or a division or segment level relative to the supplier, rather than at a level directly relating to a product supplied to us, or were otherwise unable to specify the smelters or refiners used for components supplied to us. We were therefore unable to determine whether the 3TG that these suppliers reported were contained in components or parts that the suppliers supplied to us or to validate that any of these smelters or refiners are actually in our supply chain.

Due diligence performed

Establish strong Company management systems

Conflict minerals policy

The Company’s position on 3TGs is publicly posted at https://www.baxter.com/policies-positions/conflict-minerals-policy-position-statement.

Internal team

In 2023, the internal Conflict Minerals Core Team (Core Team) consisted of representatives from the Company’s procurement, environmental compliance, and legal functions. The Core Team governs our conflict minerals compliance effort and is responsible for providing guidance and direction for the implementation of our Conflict Minerals Program.

We have also taken on other management systems that include the use of a third-party vendor. Through our vendor’s tool, we are able to collect and store supplier data and CMRTs, communicate with suppliers, and monitor certain risks in our supply chain. The use of these tools and services has allowed us to assist our suppliers in understanding our expectations and requirements and generally increase the rate of responses we have received from our suppliers to our survey requests.

Control systems and grievance mechanism

The Company's controls include a Code of Conduct (Code) that outlines expected behaviors for all employees, contractors, agents and third parties. This Code is publicly available on our website at https://www.baxter.com/our-story/our-governance/code-conduct. To this end, anyone can utilize our Ethics and Compliance Hotline as detailed in our Code to proactively report a violation of our Code or other policies, including our Conflict Minerals Policy and related program efforts.

Maintain records

We maintain company-wide document retention policies. These policies extend to the documentation accumulated in performing our due diligence procedures and provides for the maintenance of documentation for a period of up to 10 years depending on the type and nature of the document.

Supplier engagement

With respect to the OECD objective to strengthen engagement with suppliers, we have utilized the CMRT version 6.1 or higher and a third-party vendor’s web-based reporting tool for collecting conflict minerals declarations from our supply base. The use of these tools has helped us to assist our suppliers in understanding our expectations and requirements.

We have also communicated with suppliers potentially affected by our Conflict Minerals Policy and related compliance efforts, as identified through our RCOI process, and our expectation that they assist us in complying with our efforts related to our Conflict Minerals Program. This includes obtaining information to support chain of custody of the 3TG identified in our products. We have provided suppliers access to our Conflict Minerals Policy through our website or upon request.

We continue to emphasize supplier education and training. To accomplish this, we utilize a third-party vendor’s learning management system and provide all in-scope suppliers access to the third-party vendor's conflict minerals training course. All suppliers are encouraged to complete all modules within this course and we generally monitor the status of their training activities.

Identify and assess risks in the supply chain

Due to the complexity of our products and the depth, breadth, and constant changes to our supply chain, it is difficult to identify sub-tier suppliers from our direct suppliers. We have relied on supplier responses to provide us with the information about the source of conflict minerals contained in the parts and components they supply to us.

Similarly, our direct suppliers also rely on information provided by their suppliers. This chain of information creates a level of uncertainty and risk related to the accuracy of the information. We will continue to monitor, adapt, and modify our due diligence practices to conform to evolving industry practices, as appropriate.

In accordance with OECD Guidelines, it is important to understand risk levels associated with conflict minerals in the supply chain. The basis of this understanding stems from smelter or refiner (SOR) information. Each facility that meets the RMI definition of a smelter or refiner of a 3TG mineral is assigned by the RMI a risk of high, medium or low based on three scoring criteria:

1.geographic proximity to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) or an adjoining country (the Covered Countries);

2.Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) audit status; and

3.known or plausible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing.

We also calculate overall supplier risk based on the risk ratings of the smelters declared by that supplier on their CMRT.

Additionally, we evaluate suppliers on the perceived strength of their programs (further identifying risk in the supply chain). Evaluating and tracking the strength of a supplier's program meets the OECD Guidelines and can assist in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses. The criteria (items A, E, G and H from the CMRT) used to evaluate the strength of the program are:

A. Have you established a conflict minerals sourcing policy?

E. Have you implemented due diligence measures for conflict-free sourcing?

G. Do you review due diligence information received from your suppliers against your company’s expectations?

H. Does your review process include corrective action management?

When suppliers meet or exceed the above criteria, they are deemed to have a strong program. When suppliers do not meet those criteria, they are deemed to have a weaker program.

As a member of the RMI (Member Company ID: 5456), we support engagement by the RMI with SOR(s) and the obtainment of information on country of mineral origin, transit and transportation routes used between mine and smelters and refiners. We also support the RMI’s RMAP, which includes an assessment of whether SORs have carried out all five steps of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas framework, as discussed above, for responsible supply chains of 3TG from the Covered Countries and contribute directly to the RMI’s RMAP, which uses an independent third-party audit to identify smelters and refiners that have systems in place to help assure sourcing of only conflict-free materials.

We believe that the inquiries and investigations described above represent a reasonable effort to determine the mines or locations of origin of the 3TG in our covered products, including (1) seeking information about 3TG smelters and refiners in our supply chain through requesting that our suppliers complete the CMRT, (2) verifying those smelters and refiners with the expanding RMI lists, (3) conducting the due diligence review, and (4) obtaining additional documentation and verification, as applicable and as we are able.

Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks

We report our findings annually to the Core Team prior to the issuance of Form SD and this Conflict Minerals Report. We also report any significant due diligence findings to the Core Team as they arise. For example, if we find that we source 3TG in a manner that we believe directly or indirectly finances or benefits armed groups in the Covered Countries, Baxter will assess the supplier relationship and encourage the supplier in question to establish an alternative source of 3TG that does not support such conflict. We have found no instance where it was necessary to implement risk mitigation efforts as a result of a supplier’s response to our information request.

Based on the smelter or refiner risk criteria noted above, risk mitigation activities are initiated for facilities identified as being of highest concern to the supply chain as reported on a CMRT by any of the suppliers surveyed. Through our third-party vendor, submissions that include any of these high risk facilities produce a receipt instructing the supplier to take their own risk mitigation actions, including submission of a product specific CMRT to better identify the connection to products that they supply to Baxter, and potentially escalating up to removal of these high risk smelters from their supply chain.

As per the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, risk mitigation will depend on the supplier’s specific context. Suppliers are given performance objectives and reasonable implementation or remediation timeframes with the ultimate goal of progressive elimination of these risks from the supply chain. Furthermore, suppliers are guided to our third-party vendor’s learning management system to engage in educational materials on mitigating the risk of smelters or refiners in the supply chain.

As a member of the RMI, we work with upstream suppliers as the RMI provides in-region components of risk assessment and mitigation. Additionally, through this membership, we support the RMI’s efforts to monitor whether SOR(s) demonstrate significant and measurable improvement within six months from the adoption of their risk management plans and, as noted above, we support the RMI’s independent third party audits of the SOR’s due diligence practices through the RMAP.

Carry-out independent third party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain

We do not have a direct relationship with smelters and refiners and therefore do not perform or direct audits of these entities. However, as noted above, we support the independent third-party audits of the SOR’s due diligence practices through the RMI's RMAP.

Results of Due Diligence

Survey results

As described above, the Company actively surveys our supply chain and reviews the responses against criteria developed to determine whether further engagement is required. These criteria include: untimely responses, incomplete responses and inconsistencies within the data reported in the CMRT.

As of May 13, 2024, we received responses from 70% of surveyed suppliers for the 2023 year.

Efforts to determine mine or location of origin

Given that we do not have relationships with the ultimate smelters and refiners from which the 3TG in our products is sourced, we have determined that requesting our suppliers to complete the RMI Template and supporting the RMI programs and initiatives represent our good faith effort to determine the mines or locations of origin of 3TG in our supply chain.

Smelters and refiners

Of the suppliers surveyed, many completed the RMI template at the company, business unit or entity level and are unable to represent that 3TG from the processing facilities they listed had actually been included in components that they supplied to us. The quality of the responses that we received from our surveyed suppliers continues to be varied. Many of the responses provided by supplier via the CMRT included the names of facilities listed by the suppliers as smelters or refiners. The CMRTs submitted by suppliers that do not list at least one smelter for each 3TG claimed on the CMRT are considered invalid and our third-party provider follows up on these, urging suppliers to resubmit the form and include smelter information. There are still suppliers that are unable to provide SORs used for the materials supplied to us.

Based on the smelter list provided by suppliers via the CMRTs and publicly available information, we have identified 225 smelters that are deemed RMAP Conformant – this indicates our determination that these smelters or refiners are compliant with the RMAP assessment protocols.

As detailed above, risk mitigation activities were initiated on the suppliers submitting high risk entries in their CMRT, including certain smelters subject to U.S. or other relevant sanctions. These smelters or refiners, however, may not be present in the Baxter supply chain as these Baxter suppliers were only able to provide company-level CMRTs which do not directly link those smelters or refiners to the products they provide to Baxter. In addition, with respect to sanctioned smelters, the products that Baxter purchases from its suppliers would have been substantially transformed multiple times after any inputs of such sanctioned parties.

Appendix A lists the smelters and refiners that the suppliers we surveyed reported as being in their supply chains. We have not listed in Appendix A any smelters or refiners that our third-party has not been able to validate. Appendix B includes an aggregate list of the countries of origin from which the reported facilities collectively source conflict minerals based on information provided by suppliers and the RMI.

Steps to Be Taken

We are committed to complying with the provisions of Rule 13p-1 and Form SD and expect to continue our Conflict Minerals Program and related due diligence. Our next steps may include, but are not limited to the following:

•engage with suppliers to continue addressing their compliance requirements, including due diligence regarding sanctions, and direct them to training resources in an effort to increase the number of suppliers that utilize our third-party vendor’s learning management system, with a goal of increasing our response rate and improving the content of responses, thereby helping us to enhance our RCOI process and efforts to determine the processing facilities for, and country of origin of, our 3TG with the greatest specificity possible;

•via our third-party vendor, increase the emphasis on clean and validated smelter and refiner information from our supply chain as the list of conflict-free smelters and refiners grows and more smelters and refiners declare their intent to enroll in the program; and

•via our third-party vendor, encourage our suppliers to have due diligence procedures in place for their supply chains to improve the content of the responses from such suppliers.
