Exhibit 1.01

John Bean Technologies Corporation

Conflict Minerals Report

For the Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2022

This report for the calendar year ended December 31, 2022 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”). Unless otherwise specified or indicated by the context, JBT Corporation, JBT, we, us, our and the Company refer to John Bean Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries. In accordance with the Rule, the information presented in this report does not include products manufactured by businesses acquired after May 1, 2021.

JBT has reason to believe that some of the 3TGs (as defined below) present in its supply chain may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively referred to as the “Covered Countries”). We are unable to determine the origin of the 3TGs in our products and therefore cannot exclude the possibility that some may have originated in the Covered Countries. For that reason, we are required under the Rule to submit to the Securities and Exchange Commission a Conflict Minerals Report (“CMR”) as an Exhibit to Form SD. In accordance with the instructions to Form SD, this CMR has not been audited by an independent private sector auditor.

The term “conflict mineral” is defined in Section 1502(e)(4) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as (A) columbite-tantalite, also known as coltan (the metal ore from which tantalum is extracted); cassiterite (the metal ore from which tin is extracted); gold; wolframite (the metal ore from which tungsten is extracted); or their derivatives; or (B) any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country. Gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, and their derivatives, tin, tungsten and tantalum are hereinafter referred to collectively as “3TGs.”

2. Description of Reasonable County of Origin Inquiry and Conclusion

We engaged Assent Inc. (“Assent”) to assist in developing our approach to conduct in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”). Assent is a recognized software and consulting provider supporting companies’ regulatory compliance.

JBT’s RCOI employed a combination of measures to determine whether the necessary 3TGs in JBT products originated from the Covered Countries. JBT’s primary means of determining country of origin of necessary 3TGs was by conducting a supply chain survey through Assent with direct JBT suppliers using the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”)’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”).

JBT began its scoping process by compiling a list of direct suppliers of materials for JBT’s businesses that were likely to source materials that might contain 3TGs. This list was then filtered to remove suppliers of direct materials for all business units sourced prior to January 1, 2022.

The first two questions in the CMRT allowed for further scoping as they ask suppliers whether any of the 3TGs are intentionally added and if they are necessary to the functionality or production of their products.

JBT surveyed its suppliers via the Assent Compliance Manager, a software platform licensed by JBT to log and track supplier communications. This platform also allows suppliers to upload completed CMRTs directly to the platform for assessment and management. In their responses, suppliers specified whether information was being provided at the company level or the product level. Non-responsive suppliers were contacted a minimum of three times by the Assent Compliance Manager and also via one-on-one communications. For the 2022 reporting period, JBT received responses from 48% of its in-scope suppliers. Of the 965 suppliers that provided a response, 16.9% reported that their products contained 3TGs necessary to the functionality or production of their products.

We provided training and education on the completion of the CMRT to assist suppliers in accurately completing the survey questions in the CMRT.

All of these communications were monitored and tracked in the Assent Compliance Manager for future reporting and transparency.

JBT’s survey process with Assent includes automated data validation on all submitted CMRTs. The goal of data validation is to increase the accuracy of submissions and identify any contradictory answers in the CMRT. This data validation is based on the



construction and relationship of the questions submitted to the suppliers in the CMRT. Suppliers must provide the minimum responses to the CMRT in order to determine the scope of applicability of the remaining CMRT questions - this aligns with the design of the CMRT itself. The remainder of the questions are then automatically assessed for consistency. All submitted forms are accepted and classified as valid or invalid, preserving all of the data submitted for record keeping purposes. Suppliers are contacted in regard to invalid forms and are strongly encouraged to resubmit a valid form. As of April 21, 2023, there were 14 (0.7%) invalid supplier submissions.

As a result of its assessment, JBT has concluded in good faith that during calendar year 2022:

a.JBT has manufactured or contracted to manufacture products as to which 3TGs are necessary to the functionality or production of such products.

b.Based on its RCOI, JBT is unable to determine whether a portion of its necessary 3TGs originated or may have originated in the Covered Countries and is unable to determine whether those necessary 3TGs may not be from recycle or scrap sources.


3. Due Diligence Process and Results

Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the framework in The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Third Edition (“OECD Guidance”) and the related Supplements for gold and for tin, tantalum and tungsten. The 5 steps of due diligence are:

1.Establishing strong company management systems regarding conflict minerals;
2.Identifying and assessing risks in our supply chain;
3.Designing and implementing a strategy to respond to identified risks in our supply chain;
4.Utilizing independent third-party audits of supply chain diligence; and
5.Publicly reporting on our supply chain due diligence.
We are a downstream supplier, many steps removed from the mining of 3TGs. A large number of suppliers, through multiple tiers of distribution, supply the components and materials integrated into our products. Furthermore, JBT does not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals or make purchases from the Covered Countries. The origin of the conflict minerals cannot be determined with any certainty once the raw ores are smelted, refined and converted to ingots, bullion or other conflict mineral containing derivatives. The smelters and refiners consolidate raw ore and represent the best actors in the total supply chain to possess knowledge of the origin of the ores they procure.

The OECD Guidance specifies that the requirements for compliance should reflect a company’s position in the supply chain. In particular, the OECD Guidance states that the implementation of due diligence should be tailored to a company’s activities and relationships and that the nature and extent of due diligence may vary based on a company’s size, products, relationships with suppliers and other factors. Due to practical difficulties associated with supply chain complexities, the OECD Guidance advises that downstream companies exercise due diligence primarily by establishing controls over their immediate suppliers. Accordingly, we rely primarily on our “tier 1” (direct) suppliers to provide information with respect to the origin of the conflict minerals contained in the components and materials supplied to us.

3.1. Management Systems

Internal Team

JBT has established a management system for conflict minerals. Our management system includes a Conflict Minerals team sponsored by JBT’s executive management, as well as engineering and sourcing resources within JBT’s business segments. The Conflict Minerals Team includes subject matter experts from relevant corporate functions such as:

Controller
General Counsel
Executive Vice President Supply Chain

The team is responsible for implementing our conflict minerals compliance strategy and is led by the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Control Systems

As described above, we have adopted a Conflict Minerals policy which is posted on our website at https://www.jbtc.com/about-us/esg/

JBT’s standard purchase order form terms and conditions include a requirement that suppliers comply with all local laws including those pertaining to business integrity.




As we do not typically have a direct relationship with 3TGs smelters and refiners, and due to our position in the supply chain and limited insight into deeper levels of the supply chain, we seek to be engaged and actively cooperate with other major manufacturers in the industry regarding 3TGs sourcing matters.

Supplier Engagement

With respect to the OECD requirement to strengthen engagement with suppliers, we have provided education with respect to conflict minerals regulations as well as our expectations for a continued business relationship, and leveraged the existing communications with our supplier base as is available. We put a strong emphasis on supplier education. To accomplish this, we utilized Assent’s informational resources and Supplier Help Center, and provided all in-scope suppliers access to their Conflict Minerals educational resources.

Grievance Mechanism

We have a hotline whereby employees can report violations of JBT’s policies. Employees are encouraged to report concerns about compliance with policies to their managers, their human resources representative or company counsel unless they prefer to remain anonymous and utilize the hotline.

Maintain Records

We have adopted a policy to retain relevant documentation. Documentation will be retained for a minimum period of five years based on OECD guidance.

3.2 Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain

In accordance with OECD Guidelines, it is important to understand risk levels associated with conflict minerals in the supply chain. Smelters not being certified DRC conflict-free pose a risk to the supply chain. Each facility that meets the RMI definition of a smelter or refiner of a 3TGs mineral is assessed according to red flag indicators defined in the OECD Guidance. There are numerous factors to determine the level of risk that each smelter poses to the supply chain by identifying red flags. These factors include:

Geographic proximity to the DRC and covered countries;
Known mineral source country of origin;
Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) audit status;
Credible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing; and
Peer Assessments conducted by credible third-party sources.

As part of our risk management plan under the OECD Guidance, when facilities with red flags were reported on a CMRT by one of the suppliers surveyed, risk mitigation activities are initiated. CMRT submissions that include any red flag facilities immediately 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 JBT, and escalating up to removal of these red flag smelters from their supply chain.

Consistent with the OECD Guidance, risk mitigation will depend on the supplier’s specific context. Suppliers are given clear performance objectives within reasonable timeframes with the ultimate goal of progressive elimination of these risks from the supply chain.

If any smelter or refiner is not recognized by the RMI, Assent conducts outreach and research to gain more information about whether they are a smelter or a refiner, sourcing practices, location, and country of origin. Additionally, if any smelter is not certified conflict-free, Assent conducts outreach providing education on the RMAP and encouraging them to join this program.

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

Additionally, suppliers are evaluated on program strength (further assisting in identifying risk in the supply chain). At this stage, evaluating and tracking the strength of the program meets the OECD Guidelines and can assist in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses. The criteria used to evaluate the strength of the program are based on the following CMRT questions:

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 those criteria, they are deemed to have a strong program. When suppliers do not meet those criteria, they are deemed to have a weak program.




3.3 Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks

In response to this risk assessment, we have a risk management plan, through which the conflict minerals program is implemented, managed and monitored.

As part of our risk management plan, to ensure suppliers understand our expectations we have provided both video, recorded training and documented instructions through Assent’s compliance supply chain staff. As the program progresses, contacts via email and phone by our business segments may be utilized to communicate the importance of a response via CMRTs to Assent and the required cooperation for compliance without conflict minerals policies will be emphasized.

We expect any of our suppliers that we have reason to believe are supplying us with 3TGs from sources that may support conflict in the Covered Countries, to establish an alternative source of 3TGs that does not support such conflict, as provided in the OECD guidance. During calendar year 2022, we have found no instances where it was necessary to terminate a contract or find a replacement supplier.

3.4 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 3TGs smelters and refiners and do not presently perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chain. JBT depends on audits performed and submitted to the RMI for conflict-free certifications.

3.5 Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence

We report annually on supply chain due diligence by filing a Form SD and a Conflict Minerals Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report can be found on the Investor Relations page of our website https://ir.jbtc.com/financials/sec-filings/

4. Due Diligence Results

Survey Results

For the 2022 reporting year, JBT received a CMRT from 48% of the suppliers surveyed, versus 36% in the previous year. All final CMRT submissions were reviewed and validated to ensure no inaccuracies or gaps in data were found. 14 suppliers were unable to correct their CMRT and as such, are still listed as invalid submissions. We surveyed a total of 2,000 in scope suppliers and received 965 CMRT submissions by April 21, 2023.

Certain of the responses provided by the Company’s suppliers to the CMRT included the names of smelters or refiners. See Appendix A - Validated Smelter List. Assent compared these facilities listed in the responses to the list of smelters and refiners maintained by the RMI, and, if a supplier indicated that the facility was certified as “Conflict-Free”, Assent confirmed that the name was listed as such by RMI. Assent, using the sources above, has validated 345 smelters and refiners (“SORs”) disclosed by the Company’s suppliers on submitted CMRTs. Going forward, Assent is continuing to validate additional SORs from the submitted CMRTs.

The information that we received from a majority of our direct suppliers was at their company-wide level. Thus, the smelters or refiners identified by our suppliers contained in Appendix A below may include smelters or refiners that processed conflict minerals that our suppliers supplied to their other customers, but not to us. As a result, we are unable to conclusively determine whether the smelters or refiners included in the tables below were used to process the conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of our products during calendar year 2022. Because of this uncertainty, we are also unable to conclusively determine whether each of the countries of origin listed above were the country of origin of conflict minerals in our products during calendar year 2021, and we are therefore also unable to conclusively determine the source and chain of custody of those conflict minerals. In addition, the third-party audits conducted on smelters as part of the RMAP and the information that we receive from our suppliers may yield inaccurate or incomplete information. For example, the information received from our suppliers may be incomplete because they may not have received accurate and complete conflict minerals information from all of the suppliers in their own supply chain. We also do not have access to audit reports or detailed findings of the third-party audits conducted as part of the RMAP and, as a result, are not responsible for the quality of these audits or the audit findings.

Appendix A to this CMR 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 we have not been able to validate. Appendix A also includes an aggregated list of the potential countries of origin from which the reported facilities collectively source conflict minerals, based on information provided by our suppliers and RMI.

Many of our surveyed suppliers are still unable to provide the smelters or refiners used for materials they supplied to us. Furthermore, many of the responses provided at the company or division level indicated an “unknown” status in terms of determining the origin of 3TGs.

As noted above, the current efforts focus on gathering smelter information via the CMRT and requesting full completion of all necessary smelter identification information which will enable the validation and disclosure of the smelters as well as the tracing of the 3TGs to their location of origin.




We believe that the inquiries and assessment processes described above represent a reasonable effort to determine the origin of the 3TGs in our products, including (1) seeking information about 3TGs 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.

5. Risk Mitigation and Program Improvement Steps

We intend to take the following steps to improve the due diligence conducted to further mitigate any risk that the necessary 3TGs in our products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:

a. Engage with suppliers and provide training resources to attempt to increase the response rate and improve the content of the supplier survey responses.
b. Continue to evaluate upstream sources through a broader set of tools to evaluate risk. These include, but are not limited to:
Using a comprehensive smelter and refiner library with detailed status and notes for each entity.
Scanning for verifiable media sources on each smelter and refiner to flag risk issues.
Comparing the list of smelters/refiners against government watch and denied parties lists.
c. Continue to include a conflict minerals flow-down clause in new or renewed supplier contracts and in the terms and conditions of each purchase order issued to direct suppliers of materials for JBT businesses likely to source materials that might contain 3TGs.
