Exhibit 1.01
Conflict Minerals Report
Sonos, Inc. has included this Conflict Minerals Report as an exhibit to its Form SD as contemplated by Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Form SD (the “Conflict Minerals Rule”). The date of filing of this Conflict Minerals Report is May 27, 2022.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms “Sonos,” “we,” “its,” “us” and “our” refer to Sonos and its consolidated subsidiaries.
As used herein and consistent with the Conflict Minerals Rule, “Conflict Minerals” or “3TG” are columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite and the derivatives tantalum, tin and tungsten, without regard to the location of origin of the minerals or derivative metals.
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Conflict Minerals Report are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "would," "expect," "objective," "plan," "potential," "seek," "grow," "target," "if," and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the additional steps that we intend to take to mitigate the risk that our necessary 3TG benefit armed groups.
We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including (1) the continued implementation of satisfactory traceability and other compliance measures by our direct and indirect suppliers on a timely basis or at all, (2) whether smelters and refiners (“SORs”) and other market participants responsibly source 3TG and (3) political and regulatory developments, whether in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered Countries”), the United States or elsewhere. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by law, we do not intend to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this Conflict Minerals Report or to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations.
Applicability of the Conflict Minerals Rule to our Business
Sonos is one of the world’s leading sound experience brands. Known for delivering unparalleled sound experience, thoughtful design aesthetic, simplicity of use and an open platform, Sonos makes a breadth of audio content available to anyone. Our sound system provides an immersive listening experience created by our thoughtfully designed speakers and components, our proprietary software platform and the ability to wirelessly stream the content our customers love from the services they prefer.
Our electronics products contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and/or gold. However, the 3TG in the products constitutes a small portion of their total materials content. For a further discussion of our products, see our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2021. The information contained in our Form 10-K is not
1
incorporated by reference into this Conflict Minerals Report or our Form SD and should not be considered part of this Conflict Minerals Report or the Form SD.
Our products are manufactured for us by third party manufacturers. In addition, we do not directly source 3TG from SORs and believe that we are in most cases many levels removed from these market participants. However, through the efforts described in this Conflict Minerals Report, and as part of our reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) and due diligence processes, we seek to ensure that our suppliers source responsibly. Specifically, we endeavor in good faith to determine if any of the 3TG necessary to the functionality or production of the products that we contract to manufacture originated in a Covered Country and, if so, whether it directly or indirectly financed or benefited an armed group.
Our Conflict Minerals Policy and Our Supplier Code of Conduct
Sonos is committed to corporate social responsibility and responsible sourcing and is opposed to human rights abuses. We also take seriously our compliance obligations under the Conflict Minerals Rule. To these ends, we have adopted and communicate to our suppliers and the public a company policy (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”) regarding the use of 3TG in our products. Our Conflict Mineral Policy indicates that we require that our suppliers source 3TG only from SORs that are conformant with the Responsible Minerals Initiative's (“RMI”) Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”), which requires a third-party sourcing audit of such SORs. We also require all suppliers to sign a Supplier Code of Conduct based on the Responsible Business Alliance industry standard. As set forth in Supplier Code of Conduct, we expect our supplier to share our commitment to corporate social responsibility and reserve the right to request corrective action for any non-compliance, including termination of the relationship with the supplier.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry Information
As required by the Conflict Minerals Rule, for 2021, we conducted a RCOI. We designed our RCOI in good faith to determine the origin of the 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of products that we contracted to manufacture. For purposes of the RCOI, we treated all suppliers, except service and packaging suppliers, as potentially in scope.
Our outreach included 126 potentially in-scope suppliers (the “Suppliers”). The results of our RCOI are discussed on Annex A to this Conflict Minerals Report. For our RCOI, to the extent applicable, we utilized the same processes and procedures as for our due diligence, in particular Steps 1 and 2 of the OECD Guidance (as defined below) design framework, which are described below in this Conflict Minerals Report.
As indicated on Annex A, approximately 94% of the SORs identified to us by the Suppliers were listed as Conformant (as defined below) by the RMI.
Based on the results of our RCOI, we exercised due diligence for 2021. These due diligence efforts are discussed below.
Due Diligence Measures
Design Framework
2
We have designed our due diligence measures relating to 3TG to conform with, in all material respects, the criteria set forth in the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (Third Edition) (the “OECD Guidance”).
Selected Elements of Design Framework and Due Diligence Program Execution
The OECD Guidance has established a five-step framework for due diligence as a basis for responsible global supply chain management of minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas. Selected elements of our due diligence program are discussed below. The headings below conform to the headings used in the OECD Guidance for each of the five steps.

Product and Smelter and Refiner Information
Our in-scope products for 2021 consisted of speakers, components and related accessories.
In connection with our RCOI or due diligence, as applicable, the Suppliers identified to us the SORs listed on Appendix A as having processed the necessary 3TG contained in our in-scope products for 2021. Due to our position in the supply chain, we rely on our suppliers for accurate SOR information. Our due diligence measures cannot provide absolute certainty regarding the source and chain of custody of the 3TG contained in our products.
4
We endeavored to determine the mine or location of origin of the 3TG contained in our in-scope products by requesting that the Suppliers provide us with a completed CMRT and through the other measures described in this Conflict Minerals Report.
For 2021, none of our in-scope products were determined by us to support conflict (i.e., to contain necessary 3TG that directly or indirectly financed or benefitted an armed group in a Covered Country). However, we did not conclude that any of our in-scope products were “DRC conflict free.
Future Risk Mitigation Efforts
For 2022, we intend to continue to engage in the activities described above, including our efforts to engage with suppliers that provide incomplete responses or do not provide responses to our inquiries. We also intend to (1) review the adequacy of our due diligence measures to assess the source and chain of custody of the 3TG in our in-scope products, (2) encourage suppliers to enhance the transparency of their supply chain and to source responsibly and (3) update our Conflict Minerals Policy as applicable.

Annex A
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Annex have the meanings indicated in our Conflict Minerals Report.
In connection with our RCOI and due diligence, as applicable, our Suppliers identified to us the SORs listed below as having processed the 3TG contained in our in-scope products for 2021.
