Exhibit 1.01
CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT OF
PMFG, Inc.
FOR THE REPORTING PERIOD FROM
JANUARY 1 TO DECEMBER 31, 2014
I. | Introduction |
This is the Conflict Minerals2 Report of PMFG, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”) prepared for calendar year 2014 (except for conflict minerals that, prior to January 31, 2013, were located outside of the supply chain) in accordance with Rule 13p-1 (“Rule 13p-1”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”). Numerous terms in this Report are defined in Rule 13p-1 of the Act and Form SD and the reader is referred to those sources, and also to Release No. 34-67716 (August 22, 2012) of the Act (the “Adopting Release”) for such definitions.
We are a leading provider of custom-engineered systems and products designed to help ensure that the delivery of energy is safe, efficient and clean. We conduct our business globally and primarily serve the markets for natural gas infrastructure, power generation and refining and petrochemical processing. Our primary customers include original equipment manufacturers, engineering contractors, commercial and industrial companies and operators of power facilities.
In accordance with Rule 13p-1, we undertook efforts to determine the source of the necessary conflict minerals used in our products. The Company designed its efforts in conformity, with the internationally recognized due diligence framework in theOECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas3 (“OECD Due Diligence Guidance”) and related Supplements.
The statements below are based on the due diligence activities performed to date and in good faith by the Company and are based on the infrastructure and information available at the time of this filing. There are factors that could affect the accuracy of these statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, incomplete supplier data or available smelter data, errors or omissions by suppliers or smelters, evolving definition and confirmation of smelters, incomplete information from industry or other third-party sources, continuing guidance regarding the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) final rules, and other issues.
II. | Design of Conflict Minerals Program |
The Company designed its overall conflict minerals program based on the five-step framework of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, the Supplement on Tin, Tantalum, and Tungsten, and the Supplement on Gold, specifically as it relates to our position in the minerals supply chain as a “downstream” company.
2 | 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 (“DRC”) or an adjoining country. |

1
The Company’s implementation of the five-step framework consists of the following overarching steps which are discussed in further detail in Section III.
Step 1: | Establish strong company management systems | |
Step 2: | Identify and assess risks in the supply chain | |
Step 3: | Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks | |
Step 4: | Carry out independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner’s due diligence practices | |
Step 5: | Report annually on supply chain due diligence. |
As described below, we relied upon multi-stakeholder initiatives that provide verification processes for conflict-free minerals from smelters or refiners who may provide those minerals to companies in our supply chain. The Company, as a purchaser of component parts, is many steps removed from the mining of conflict minerals; the Company does not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals, and conducts no purchasing activities directly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).
III. | Due Diligence Measures Performed by PMFG, Inc. |
The following describes the measures taken to reasonably exercise due diligence in the mineral supply chain in conformance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance.
Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
a. | Conflict minerals team – We established a conflict minerals team that includes individuals from the appropriate business units and departments to ensure critical information reached relevant employees and suppliers. This team is charged with overseeing and driving conflict minerals compliance. The conflict minerals team engagement a third party service provider to assist with process design and data collection. |
b. | Position statement – We adopted and published a position statement articulating the Company’s position with regard to the matters that gave rise to the SEC’s regulations, as well as the expectations of our suppliers with regard to responsible sourcing. The position statement can be found on our website under the Investor tab at www.pmfginc.com. |
c. | Internal engagement – We developed a training program for internal use to educate relevant employees on our conflict minerals program and reporting obligations. |
d. | Supplier engagement – We provided educational materials to our queried suppliers. Suppliers were provided information on the conflict minerals disclosure requirements as well as recommendations for developing, implementing, and documenting a conflict minerals compliance program. |
Step 2: Identify and assess risks in the supply chain
We performed the following steps as part of our risk assessment process:
a. | Identify products in scope – Our conflict minerals team reviewed a summary of products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured during the Reporting Period to identify products that should be deemed in-scope as described by the Adopting Release. Using the summary of products identified, the conflict minerals team determined the suppliers for inclusion in the reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”). |
b. | Conduct RCOI – We utilized the industry-developed Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) to query our suppliers for conflict minerals information. We requested this information from the Tier 1 suppliers who provide material and components for the products deemed in-scope by our conflict minerals team. We evaluated the responses from the templates submitted by our suppliers to determine our reporting obligation based on this RCOI. |
c. | Validated and evaluated supplier responses – We contacted direct suppliers that did not respond to our request for conflict minerals information by the requested date. For those suppliers that completed a CMRT, we applied an established risk rating criteria to validate and evaluate suppliers’ responses. We plan to use the ratings to design and implement a risk management plan to respond to the identified risks. |
d. | Identify smelters/processors – We collected a list of smelters/processors that are in our supply chain by utilizing the CMRT. |
2
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
We performed the following steps as part of our risk management plan:
a. | Designed and implemented a plan – We used established risk rating criteria to evaluate suppliers based on the responses provided within their CMRT as well as any additional documentation furnished to support those responses. The resulting risk ratings will be used to develop specific supplier outreach and education to address the identified risks. |
b. | Verify smelters – As part of the risk mitigation process, the Company reconciled the list of smelters collected from suppliers to the list of smelter facilities designated as “conflict-free” by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative’s (“CFSI”) Conflict-Free Smelter Program. |
Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner’s due diligence practices
We are relying on the CFSI’s published lists to verify the conflict-free status of smelters/processors that source from the covered countries.
Step 5: Report annually on supply chain due diligence
We have determined that a portion of the conflict minerals used to manufacture our products originated from the Covered Countries. Based on our due diligence of the mineral supply chain, we have determined that our products are DRC conflict undeterminable at this time. Accordingly, this Conflict Minerals Report has been filed with the SEC and is available on our website under the Investors tab at www.pmfginc.com.
IV. | Product Determination |
On the basis of the measures described above, the Company was unable to determine the source for all of the conflict minerals used in its products manufactured during the period January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.
V. | Product Description |
Products– The Company offers a broad range of separation and filtration products, Selective Catalytic Reduction systems, Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction systems, low emission burner and related combustion systems and other complementary products including head transfer equipment, pulsation dampeners and silencers. Our products are highly customized and are designed and configured based on the specific requirements of our customers.

VI. | Additional Due Diligence and Risk Mitigation |
We will continue to communicate our expectations and information requirements to our direct suppliers. Over time, we anticipate that the amount of information globally on the traceability and sourcing of these ores will increase and improve our knowledge. We will continue to make inquiries to our direct suppliers and undertake additional risk assessments when potentially relevant changes in facts or circumstances are identified.
In addition to those above, the Company will undertake the following steps during the next compliance period:
• | Continue to collect responses from suppliers using tools such as the CMRT. |
• | Monitor and track performance of risk mitigation efforts. |
• | Compare and validate RCOI results to information collected via independent conflict-free smelter validation programs such as the CFSI. |
• | Continue to allow verified conflict-free material from the region to enter our supply chain. |
VII. | Independent Private Sector Audit |
Not required for calendar year 2014.
