INCORPORATED

Conflict Minerals

Report

For the reporting period from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020

Overview

This Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) of II-VI Incorporated (“II-VI” or the “Company”) has been prepared pursuant to Rule 13p-1 and Form SD (the “Rule”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020.

The Rule requires disclosure of certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which the minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals are gold, columbite- tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten (the “Conflict Minerals” or “3TGs”). The “Covered Countries” for purposes of Rule 13p-1 are the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”), the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola.

As further described in this Report, the Company has determined that certain of its divisions manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products containing 3TGs that are necessary to the functionality or production of such products.

Description of the Company’s Products Covered by this Report

This Report relates to products (i) for which 3TGs are necessary to the functionality or production of that product, (ii) that were manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the Company, and (iii) for which the manufacture was completed during calendar year 2020.

These products, which are referred to in the remainder of this Report as the “Covered Products,” are as follows: certain laser optics whose coatings contain gold, tantalum or tungsten, certain machined parts that may contain gold plating or tin solder, and various parts and components made of gold, tantalum, tin, and tungsten that are incorporated into products offered by the Company.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

To determine whether necessary 3TGs in products originated in Covered Countries, the Company retained Assent Compliance (“Assent”), a third-party service provider, to assist it in reviewing the supply chain and identifying risks. The Company provided a list composed of Suppliers and parts associated with the in-scope products to Assent for upload to the Assent Compliance Manager (“ACM”). To collect data on the materials’ sources of origin procured by the supply chain, the Company utilized the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) version 6.01 or higher to conduct a survey of all in scope Suppliers.

During the Supplier survey, the Company contacted Suppliers via the ACM, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform provided by Assent that enables users to complete and track Supplier communications and allows Suppliers to upload completed CMRTs directly to the platform for validation, assessment and management. The ACM also provides functionality that meets the OECD Guidance process expectations by evaluating the quality of each Supplier response and assigning a health score based on the Supplier’s declaration of process engagement. Additionally, the step-by-step process for Supplier engagement and upstream due diligence investigations performed, are managed through this platform.

Through the ACM and Assent team, the Company requested that all Suppliers complete a CMRT, as well as training, and education to guide them with regard to best practices and the use of the CMRT template. Assent monitored and tracked all communications in the ACM for future reporting and transparency. The Company directly contacted Supplier that were unresponsive to Assent’s communications during the diligence process and requested them to complete the CMRT and submit it to Assent.

The Company’s program continues to include 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 questions within the declaration tab of the CMRT which helps to identify areas that require further classification or risk assessment, as well as understand the due diligence efforts of the Suppliers. The results of this data validation contribute to the program’s health assessment and are shared with the Suppliers to ensure they understand areas that require clarification or improvement.

All submitted CMRTs are accepted and classified as valid or invalid so that data is retained. Suppliers are contacted regarding invalid forms and are encouraged to submit a valid form. Suppliers are also provided with guidance on how to correct these validation errors in the form of feedback to their CMRT submission, training courses and direct engagement help through Assent’s multilingual Supplier Experience Team. Since some Supplier s may remain unresponsive to feedback, the Company tracks program gaps to account for future improvement opportunities. As of 3rd May 2021, there were 8 invalid Supplier submissions that could not be corrected. The Company’s total response rate for this reporting year was 88%.

Based on the findings through the RCOI process, the Company was able to determine the countries of origin for a large portion of the 3TGs in its products. As such, the Company continued to perform further due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the minerals in question.

The Company’s Conflict Mineral Due Diligence Framework

The Company conformed its due diligence efforts to the guidance for downstream companies provided by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Second Edition, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (the “OECD Guidance”). Furthermore, the Company has adopted a policy relating to Conflict Minerals (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”). This policy reflects the Company’s commitment to sourcing materials from companies that share its values on human rights, ethics and environmental responsibility. The Conflict Minerals Policy is publicly available on the Company website at https://www.ii-vi.com/csr/.

The Company’s Due Diligence Process

Based upon the RCOI results, the Company determined that the responses obtained from its Suppliers were insufficient to form the basis for a reasonable determination as to the specific origin and conflict status of all the 3TGs used in the Covered Products. This determination was based upon the following:

 

   

Responses from certain Suppliers indicating that the 3TGs they had supplied to the Company did originate in the Covered Countries, but lacking additional substantive information as to their conflict status; and

 

   

A lack of substantive responses from a subset of remaining Suppliers that would allow the Company to make a determination of origin with respect to each category of Covered Products.

As discussed further below, the Company undertook due diligence efforts in an attempt to clarify the following with respect to the 3TGs: (i) country of origin, (ii) whether the 3TGs financed or benefited armed groups in those countries, and (iii) whether the 3TGs came from recycled or scrap sources.

The Company does not purchase 3TGs directly from mines, smelters, or refiners, and instead relies on a complex global supply chain. There are many third parties in the supply chain between the original sources of 3TGs and the Company’s manufacturing of the Covered Products. Therefore, the Company relies on its Suppliers to provide information regarding the origin of the 3TGs that are included in its Covered Products.

The Company requested all of its Suppliers of 3TGs to identify the smelters or refiners (“SORs”) that they use, and whether they have been validated as conformant in accordance with the Responsible Minerals Initiative’s (“RMI”) Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) audit program. The Company also asked its Suppliers whether they (i) had a policy in place that includes DRC conflict-free sourcing and requires their direct suppliers to be DRC conflict-free; (ii) had implemented due diligence procedures for conflict-free sourcing; and (iii) request names of SORs from their suppliers.

The Suppliers that identified specific smelters of concern on their CMRT were contacted in accordance with the OECD Guidance to inform them of the potential for risk, and to evaluate whether these smelters could be connected to the Company’s products. The Suppliers were asked to complete a user-defined or product-level CMRT specific to the materials, products or piece parts purchased by the Company, rather than a company-level CMRT, to better identify the connection to products that they supply to the Company. Other Suppliers were evaluated internally to determine if they were in fact still active Suppliers. If not, they were removed from the scope of data collection. In total, our Suppliers identified 332 legitimate smelters (by RMI identification number, or CID). A list of the identified smelters is included in Annex A to this Report.

For those SORs that were identified by the Company’s Suppliers and that are known or thought to be sourcing from the Covered Countries, additional investigation was undertaken to determine the source and chain of custody of the 3TGs that they supply. Assent conducted research and direct outreach in order to determine sourcing practices of facilities that may source from the covered countries. Assent compared the list of smelters and refiners provided in the Suppliers’ responses to the lists of smelters maintained by the RMI.

In addition, it was also determined whether such SORs had been certified under the following internationally accepted audit standards: the RMAP, the London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery Program, and the Responsible Jewellery Council Chain-of-Custody Certification. If an SOR was not certified by these internationally-recognized schemes, attempts were made to contact the SOR to gain more information about its sourcing practices, including countries of origin and transfer, and whether it has in place any internal due diligence procedures other processes to track the chain of custody on the source of its mineral ores.

Information reviewed includes: whether the SOR has a documented, effective and communicated conflict-free policy, an accounting system to support a mass balance of materials processed, and traceability documentation. Internet research also was performed to determine whether there are any outside sources of information regarding the SOR’s sourcing practices.

Based on the results of the above-described efforts, after conducting the RCOI and subsequently exercising the required due diligence, the Company was unable to definitively determine for each of the Covered Products the country of origin and conflict status of all 3TGs contained in the Covered Products.

Steps Taken and Planned to Be Taken to Mitigate Risk

In 2020 or earlier, the Company took the following steps to mitigate the risk that its necessary 3TGs benefit armed groups in Covered Countries:

 

   

Continued to display its policy regarding 3TGs on the Company website;

 

   

Continued to contract with Assent to provide enhanced assistance with the Company’s RCOI and due diligence processes;

 

   

Continued to strengthen collaboration between Assent Compliance and II-VI supplier management teams to increase supply chain transparency and response rate;

 

   

Continued to improve reporting of conflict minerals due diligence findings to supply chain leaders and management and work with in-scope Suppliers in mitigating smelter risks throughout supply chain. Continued to utilize the Assent’s extensive resources to enhance engagement with its Suppliers. This included online learning resources and 24 hour access to Compliance experts;

 

   

Filed the Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In 2021, the Company plans to take the following steps necessary to mitigate the risk that its 3TGs benefit armed groups:

 

   

Continue to review and improve the Company’s conflict minerals program;

 

   

Continue to engage with Suppliers and direct them to 3TG training resources;

 

   

Continue to monitor conflict minerals laws, regulations, and rules and update our related policy and processes as appropriate.
