Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
This Form SD of Versum Materials, Inc. (the “Company”) is filed pursuant to Rule 13p-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016.
The Company evaluated its current product lines and determined that certain products the Company manufactures or contracts to manufacture contain tin, tungsten, tantalum or gold that are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The Company's reasonable country of origin inquiry and due diligence concluded that certain of its necessary conflict minerals may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country and not from scrap or recycled sources. As a result the Company has filed a Conflict Minerals Report.
