Minerals Disclosure

This Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD of Kimberly-Clark Corporation is for the period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Unless the context indicates otherwise, “Kimberly-Clark,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Kimberly-Clark Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

During 2020, certain of our operations manufactured, or contracted to manufacture, products for which 3TGs (as defined below) are necessary to their functionality or production (“Covered Products”). The term “3TGs” refers to columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten. Accordingly, we have conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) that was designed to determine whether any of the 3TGs in our Covered Products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda or Zambia), or were from recycled or scrap sources.

Information about our RCOI, as well as the steps we have taken to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of any 3TGs in our Covered Products, is included in our Conflict Minerals Report, which is filed as an exhibit to this Form SD. In addition, our Conflict Minerals Report is publicly available at: http://www.kimberly-clark.com/sustainability/people/CSC.aspx.

Exhibit 1.01

Kimberly-Clark Corporation

Conflict Minerals Report

for the Year Ended December 31, 2020

This Conflict Minerals Report of Kimberly-Clark Corporation has been prepared for the period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Unless the context indicates otherwise, “Kimberly-Clark,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Kimberly-Clark Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

During 2020, certain of our operations manufactured, or contracted to manufacture, products for which 3TGs (as defined below) are necessary to their functionality or production (“Covered Products”). The term “3TGs” refers to columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten. The vast majority of our products do not contain 3TGs and our revenue from sales of Covered Products in 2020 was immaterial relative to our total net sales. In 2020, we manufactured or contracted for manufacture Covered Products primarily through our K-C Professional business. We have no reason to believe that any of the Covered Products are in our consumer businesses, which include our Personal Care and Consumer Tissue operating segments.

Electronic components account for a significant majority of any 3TGs present in our Covered Products. Electronic components commonly contain 3TGs for a variety of reasons (for example tin is usually present in solder). The Covered Products include dispensers (e.g., for hand sanitizers, soaps and paper products) which contain electronic sensors and actuators.

We have developed a conflict minerals compliance program reasonably designed to identify whether the 3TGs in our Covered Products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda or Zambia) (collectively, the “Covered Countries”), or whether any of the 3TGs in our Covered Products are from recycled or scrap sources. Our conflict minerals compliance program is overseen by an internal team of subject matter experts from key functions (“Core Team”).

Description of Our Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

We have conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) that was designed to determine whether any of the 3TGs in our Covered Products originated from one of the Covered Countries or was from recycled or scrap sources.

1

In conducting our RCOI, we used a risk-based approach. First, we identified our product materials which contain or potentially contain 3TGs necessary to their functionality or production. Second, we identified the direct suppliers of the materials, components and finished goods supplied to us for those products. Third, we risk-stratified each supplier’s “materials risk” based on the likelihood that the product materials they supply to us contain 3TGs. Fourth, we conducted a supply chain survey of our direct suppliers to provide information on the origin of any 3TGs contained in materials supplied to us in our Covered Products, including sources of 3TGs supplied to these direct suppliers from second-tier suppliers, as well as suppliers further upstream.

Our survey included those suppliers rated with a materials risk of high risk and medium risk. We have determined that it is not necessary to survey our low risk and very low risk rated suppliers, based on a sampling program we conducted in past years in which we surveyed certain of these suppliers. This sampling program allowed us to confirm that the materials associated with our low risk and very low risk suppliers do not contain 3TGs.

Our supply chain survey employed the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) version 5.12 developed by the Responsible Minerals Initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance (“RMI”). The CMRT was developed to facilitate general disclosures and information regarding smelters and refiners that provide materials to the supplier. It includes questions regarding the supplier’s conflict-free minerals policy, the engagement process with its direct suppliers and identification of the smelters and refiners used by the supplier.

As of May 14, 2021, approximately 93% of our direct suppliers included in the supply chain survey have responded with a completed CMRT or acceptable declaration, including all of our high risk suppliers. We compared the list of smelters and refiners provided in our suppliers’ responses to the lists maintained by the RMI and, if a supplier indicated that a facility was certified as conformant, confirmed that the facility was listed on the RMI’s list of smelters or refiners that are conformant with the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) assessment protocols. Two suppliers indicated that their supply chains may include a single smelter that potentially could be sourcing from the Covered Countries; however, we have validated in the due diligence process described below that this smelter has been certified as conformant.  Many of the supplier responses were unable to specify all smelters or refiners used for materials supplied to us. Furthermore, many of the responses were provided at the company or division level, rather than the product level, and therefore, their list of smelters and refiners cannot be definitively linked to the products they provided to us.

Due Diligence Process

Following our RCOI, we conducted a due diligence review of the source and chain of custody of the 3TGs contained in our Covered Products. Our due diligence measures were 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 and the related Supplements for gold and for tin, tantalum and tungsten.

Management Systems and Controls

Internal Team

We have a centralized, cross-functional conflict minerals Core Team to oversee the implementation and daily administration of the program, which includes geographically diverse representation from the following departments: Procurement; Legal; and Environmental, Health, Safety & Sustainability. The Core Team periodically reports to senior management on program developments and progress. Our Senior Vice President and Chief Supply Chain Officer serves as the executive sponsor of the Conflict Minerals Compliance program.

Control Systems

We address 3TGs sourced from the Covered Countries in our Supplier Social Compliance Standards and our Supplier Stewardship Standards, which are embedded in our Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and certain of our supplier agreements, as well as posted in the Company/SupplierLINK/Standards and Requirements section of our corporate website at: http://www.kimberly-clark.com.

Our suppliers are required to source responsibly and adhere to our Supplier Social Compliance Standards, which require suppliers to source 3TGs from smelters and refiners who source outside of the Covered Countries or that are designated as “conformant” by the RMI. These standards further require our suppliers to develop and provide written evidence of their own due diligence programs to promote “conflict-free” supply chains. We engage independent third-party audit firms to conduct Supplier Social Compliance audits (on-site inspections) of suppliers of certain commodity categories, particularly contract manufacturers. If an assessment reveals that the supplier is in violation of our Supplier Social Compliance Standards, we require that the supplier submit documentation showing that violations have been addressed and remediated. We conduct additional follow-up audits at our discretion to confirm compliance with our Supplier Social Compliance Standards. Any concerns regarding suppliers or our compliance program can be reported to our Corporate Social Compliance team as specified on our Corporate Social Compliance website. During 2020, we conducted 172 supplier audits covering 138 suppliers.

Supplier Engagement

We rely on our direct (tier one) suppliers to provide information on the origin of the 3TGs contained in components and materials supplied to us - including sources of 3TGs that are supplied to them from upstream suppliers.

In addition, we conduct periodic in-house training of our key functions, e.g., Research and Engineering; Procurement; and Environmental, Health, Safety & Sustainability, to educate employees to identify 3TGs in products and to work more closely with our suppliers to encourage responsible sourcing.

3

Grievance Mechanism

We maintain a comprehensive and multi-faceted system for the reporting of Code of Conduct violations, concerns and grievances. To ensure that every employee (and every stakeholder) has the ability to report concerns on an anonymous basis, we have established a Code of Conduct telephone helpline which is staffed by a professional independent company. This line is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and one can give a report in any language. Our Code of Conduct, as well as the reporting process and helpline contact information, is available on our external website.

Calls are investigated by various internal subject matter experts in our Compliance, Internal Audit, Global Security, Human Resources and Legal departments. We report summary results and statistics to our executive leadership and our Board of Directors as deemed appropriate.

Maintenance of Records

We have adopted a policy to retain relevant documentation for a minimum of five years.

Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain

As part of our due diligence process, we reviewed our suppliers’ responses to the supply chain survey against criteria developed to determine which responses required further engagement. These criteria included untimely or incomplete responses, as well as inconsistencies within the reported data.

Certain of the responses to the surveys included the names of facilities listed by the suppliers as smelters or refiners. We compared each facility listed in the responses to the lists of smelters and refiners maintained by the RMI to verify the existence of the facility and to determine whether the facility is certified as conformant with the RMAP assessment protocols

We classify each listed smelter or refiner as high, medium or low risk based on three scoring criteria: geographic proximity to the Covered Countries, Conflict-Free Sourcing Program audit status and known or plausible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing. Based on these criteria, we have identified no facilities as being high risk. When a supplier reports a high risk facility on a CMRT, we initiate risk mitigation activities. When CMRT responses include any high or medium risk facilities, we request the supplier to provide a product-specific CMRT to better identify any connection between the subject facilities and the products supplied to us.

If any smelter or refiner is not recognized by the RMI, we conduct 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 conformant, we conduct outreach providing education on the Conflict-Free Smelter Program and encourage them to join this program.

Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks

We have developed a risk management plan that includes the following elements:

•Communication directly with our suppliers of our conflict minerals requirements under our Supplier Social Compliance Standards, as described above.

4

•Communication with suppliers who do not satisfy our due diligence requests to obtain more complete and accurate responses.

•Additional follow up, due diligence, and/or risk mitigation activities, as appropriate, upon learning of changes in supplier circumstances or information.

Carry Out Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence at Identified Points in the Supply Chain

We do not typically have a direct relationship with 3TG smelters and refiners, and we do not perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chain.

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 SEC.

Due Diligence Results

Attachment A lists the 345 legitimate smelters and refiners that the suppliers we surveyed reported as being in their supply chains and indicates which of these smelters and refiners have been certified as RMAP Conformant. The majority of the responses received either provided data at a company or divisional level or did not specify the smelters or refiners used for materials supplied to us. We are therefore unable to determine whether the smelters or refiners reported by certain suppliers processed the 3TGs in the materials supplied to us or to validate that any of these smelters or refiners are actually in our supply chain. Attachment B contains an aggregated list of the countries of origin from which the reported facilities collectively source conflict minerals, based on information provided by suppliers and publicly by the RMI.

We believe that the inquiries and investigations described above represent a reasonable effort to determine the mines or locations of origin of the 3TGs in our Covered Products with the greatest possible specificity, 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 using the RMI list, (3) conducting the due diligence review, and (4) obtaining additional documentation and verification, as applicable.

This Report has not been audited, nor is an independent private sector audit required for this Report.

Risk Mitigation and Due Diligence Improvement

We have taken or intend to take the following steps to further mitigate the risk that the 3TGs in our Covered Products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:

•Continue to review the refinement and expansion of the RMI list of smelters and refiners to validate the smelters and refiners provided by suppliers.

•Provide continuing education of the Core Team and stakeholders on their on-going responsibilities with respect to conflict minerals compliance and any legislative or organizational developments.

5

•Encourage suppliers that provided company or division level information for 2020 to provide product level information for 2021 through ongoing communications with these suppliers.

•Maintain a global supplier screening program that requires our suppliers to provide information regarding 3TGs and requires each new in-scope direct supplier we add to our supply chain to provide a completed CMRT.
