Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
Conflict Minerals are defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), wolframite and gold, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten (collectively, “3TG”). Roper Technologies, Inc. (“Roper,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) evaluated its product lines and determined that certain products we manufacture contain 3TG necessary to the functionality or production of those products.
Annual surveys were initiated with relevant direct suppliers providing parts and materials for products we manufactured or contracted to manufacture during the 2023 reporting period to begin the reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”). The Responsible Minerals Initiative’s (“RMI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template was utilized as the basis for the RCOI.
Based on the RCOI, we determined that a portion of the 3TG reported by our suppliers originated, or may have originated, from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, may not be from recycled or scrap sources, and that a portion of them have unknown origins. Therefore, we were required to exercise due diligence on the 3TG source and chain of custody following a nationally or internationally recognized due diligence framework. These details are provided in our Conflict Minerals Report, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.01 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1.02 Exhibit
Our Conflict Minerals Report is filed as Exhibit 1.01 hereto and is publicly available at www.ropertech.com.
The content on, or accessible through, any website referred to in this Form SD or our Conflict Minerals Report is included for general information only and is not incorporated by reference into this Form SD or our Conflict Minerals Report.
