Exhibit 1.01
Conflict Minerals Report of Donaldson Company, Inc.
In accord with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
|
| | |
| 1. | Introduction and Summary |
This report for the year ended December 31st 2018 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”). The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements pursuant to Section 13(p) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“Section 13(p)”). The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose manufactured products contain conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. The term “conflict minerals” is defined in Section 13(p) as (A) cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, as limited by the Rule, tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (“Conflict Minerals”); or (B) any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”) or any adjoining country that shares an internationally recognized border with the DRC. These requirements apply to registrants regardless of the geographic origin of the Conflict Minerals or whether they fund armed conflict.
Donaldson Company, Inc. (“Donaldson” or “the Company”) determined that Conflict Minerals were necessary to the functionality or production of products that we manufactured or contracted to be manufactured during the 2018 calendar year. Therefore, Donaldson conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) in good faith to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals in its products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively referred to as the “Covered Countries”). Based on its RCOI, Donaldson has concluded that it cannot exclude the possibility that its products contain Conflict Minerals that originated in the Covered Countries and, therefore, in accordance with the Rule, performed due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the Conflict Minerals in question to determine whether its products are “DRC Conflict Free”. Donaldson designed its due diligence measures to conform, in all material respects, with the nationally recognized due diligence framework in The Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, second edition and the related Supplements for gold and for tin, tantalum and tungsten (the “OECD Guidance”). As a result of our due diligence efforts, the Company has concluded some of the Conflict Minerals for the Company’s products originated in, or may have originated in, the Covered Countries and were not from recycled or scrap sources. The Company did not receive responses from all companies in its supply chain and most of the responses were at the company or division level.
Founded in 1915, Donaldson Company, Inc. (“Donaldson” or “the Company”) is a global leader in the filtration industry with sales, manufacturing, and distribution locations around the world. Donaldson’s innovative technologies are designed to solve complex filtration challenges and enhance customers’ equipment.
The Company has two reporting segments: Engine Products and Industrial Products. Products in the Engine Products segment consist of replacement filters for both air and liquid filtration applications, air filtration systems, liquid filtration systems for fuel, lube and hydraulic applications, and exhaust and emissions systems. The Engine Products segment sells to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in the construction, mining, agriculture, aerospace, defense, and truck end markets and to independent distributors, OEM dealer networks, private label accounts, and large equipment fleets. Products in the Industrial Products segment consist of dust, fume, and mist collectors, compressed air purification systems, air filtration systems for gas turbines, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane-based products, and specialized air and gas filtration systems for applications including hard disk drives and semi-conductor manufacturing. The Industrial Products segment sells to various dealers, distributors, OEMs of gas-fired turbines, and OEMs and end users requiring clean air filtration solutions and replacement filters.
The Company manufactures and contracts to manufacture products containing Conflict Minerals. Conflict Minerals were identified in products from both of the Company’s reporting segments, Engine Products and Industrial Products.
The Company has adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy articulating our conflict minerals supply chain due diligence process and our commitment to our reporting obligations regarding conflict minerals:
Conflict Minerals Policy
The ongoing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is fueled in part from trade of “conflict minerals,” which are defined as tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold or any of their derivatives. Donaldson will work with our supply chain partners to take reasonable steps to assure Conflict Minerals are not sourced by Donaldson or our supply chain partners in a way that would directly or indirectly benefit armed groups responsible for serious human rights abuses in the DRC or adjoining countries. Donaldson expects that our suppliers will comply with our requests to provide statements and perform due diligence about the source of any Conflict Minerals in their products which are provided to us.
The Conflict Minerals policy is posted on the Company’s website:

| 4. | Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry |
The Company developed a supply chain transparency program utilizing internal resources and a third-party vendor to allow for the identification of each Smelter or Refiner (SOR) in the suppliers’ mineral supply chains.
Suppliers received an email via the third-party vendor system describing the compliance requirements and requesting Conflict Minerals, SOR information and also included instructions for providing requested supply chain information. Suppliers were requested to provide such SOR information through the Responsible Business Alliance - RBA and Global e-Sustainability Initiative (“GeSI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”), version 5.10 or higher.
An escalation process was initiated for suppliers who continued to be non-responsive after the above contacts were made. This process included direct emails to the non-responsive suppliers.
Following the suppliers’ submission of their CMRT, a data validation process was employed to increase the accuracy of submissions and identify contradictory answers in the CMRT. Suppliers were then contacted to address items such as the following:
|
| |
· | Incomplete data including missing SORs |
|
| |
· | Responses that indicated a sourcing location without complete supporting information |
Certain of the responses provided by suppliers on the CMRT included the names of facilities listed by the suppliers as smelters or refiners. The Company does not typically have a direct relationship with Conflict Minerals smelters and refiners and does not perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chain. The Company’s third-party vendor compared the facilities listed in the responses to the list of smelters maintained by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI). If a supplier indicated that the facility was certified as “Conflict-Free,” the third-party vendor confirmed that the name was listed by RMI. Organizations that were identified by suppliers as SORs, but were invalid or undetermined, were contacted directly to clarify their status as an SOR.
Smelters and Refiners
Attached as Appendix A is a list of all of the validated SORs as identified by the Company’s supply chain in their submitted CMRTs that appear on the RMI list. Because most of the CMRTs we received from our suppliers were made on a company or division level basis, rather than on a product-level basis, we are not able to identify which SORs listed on Appendix A actually processed the Conflict Minerals contained in our products. Therefore, our list of processing SORs disclosed in Appendix A may contain more facilities than those that actually processed the Conflict Minerals contained in our products.
Country of Origin
Attached as Appendix B is a list of the countries of origin as identified by the RMI for the SORs included in Appendix A.
The Company’s due diligence process is based on the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (“OECD’s”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, second edition and accompanying Supplements. It is important to note that the OECD Guidance was written for both upstream and downstream companies in the supply chain. Upstream companies refer to those between the mines and SORs. As such, the companies typically include mine operators, local traders, or exporters from the country of mineral origin, international concentrate traders, and SORs. Downstream companies refer to those entities between the SOR and retailer. As such, the companies typically include metal traders and exchanges, component manufacturers, product manufacturers, OEMs, and retailers. As the Company is a downstream company in the supply chain, its due diligence practices were tailored accordingly.
A summary of the due diligence measures undertaken by the Company is below:
Establish strong company management systems:
Internal Team
The Company’s management systems for Conflict Minerals covering the 2018 calendar year were sponsored by a Steering Committee whose members included the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Vice President and General Counsel, Vice President Global Operations, Senior Vice President Industrial Products and Senior Vice President Engine Products. Steering Committee members provide reports directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The Steering Committee was supported by a Process Development Team consisting of subject matter experts from relevant functions such as Legal, Materials Compliance, Purchasing, Sales, Engineering, and Internal Audit.
Conflict Minerals Policy
The Company’s Conflict Minerals policy is publicly available at:
https://secure.ethicspoint.com/domain/media/en/gui/19744/minerals.pdf
Control Systems
Since we do not typically have a direct relationship with Conflict Minerals smelters and refiners, we are engaged and actively cooperate with other major manufacturers in our business sector and other sectors, through our own efforts and those organized by trade associations. We also participate in or actively monitor the following industry-wide initiatives to disclose upstream parties in the supply chain: Member of the Responsible Business Alliance - RBA-GeSI Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) as well as other manufacturing industry consortiums including the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), and the Manufacturers Alliance for Productivity and Innovation (MAPI).
Controls include, but are not limited to, our Code of Conduct, which outlines expected behaviors for all Donaldson employees and third parties doing business with Donaldson, and our Policy regarding Conflict Minerals.
Supplier Engagement
With respect to the OECD requirement to strengthen engagement with suppliers, we have utilized the CMRT version 5.10 or higher and a third-party vendor’s web-based reporting tool for collecting Conflict Minerals declarations from our supply base. The use of these tools has allowed us to assist our suppliers in understanding our expectations and requirements and increase the rate of responses we have received from our suppliers to our survey requests. We continue to observe that a great deal of follow-up has been required with suppliers to educate them on the Rule, Donaldson’s Conflict Minerals policy, and our expectations for their supply chain due diligence and reporting.
Grievance Mechanism
The Company continues to maintain a secured, third-party hosted, Company-level grievance mechanism accessible via the Company’s website: https://secure.ethicspoint.com/domain/media/en/gui/19744/index.html
Maintain Records
The Company maintained a policy that documentation related to our Conflict Minerals compliance process will be retained for a period of at least five years.
Identify and assess risks in the supply chain:
The SORs and countries of origin listed by suppliers were matched against a database of verified SORs and associated mines. Verified SORs were matched against available lists of processors that have been certified by RMI’s internationally-recognized industry validation scheme, the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process - RMAP.
If the SOR was not certified by the RMAP, research was conducted to gain more information about the SOR’s sourcing practices, including countries of origin and transfer, and whether there were any internal due diligence procedures in place or other processes the SOR had taken to track the chain-of-custody on the source of its mineral ores.
Based on the smelter lists provided by suppliers via the CMRTs and the RMI-provided SOR sourcing information, the Company is aware that, in their supply chain, there are twenty-four identified smelters sourcing from the Covered Countries that are certified conflict-free and a number of other smelters sourcing from other countries that are not disclosed at this time but are also certified conflict-free smelters. Many of the responses provided by suppliers are at the company or division level indicating they are still unable to provide SORs specific to the materials supplied to Donaldson.
In accordance with OECD Guidelines, it is important to understand risk levels associated with conflict minerals in the supply chain. Smelters not being certified DRC-Conflict Free pose a risk to the Supply Chain. Each facility that meets the RMI definition of a smelter or refiner of a Conflict Mineral is assigned a risk of high, medium or low based on three scoring criteria:
| |
• | Geographic proximity to the DRC and covered countries; |
| |
• | Responsible Minerals Assurance Process - RMAP audit status; |
| |
• | Known or plausible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing. |
Per these criteria the following facilities have been identified as being of highest concern to the supply chain:
| |
• | Tony Goetz NV - CID002587 |
| |
• | Kaloti Precious Metals - CID002563 |
| |
• | Universal Precious Metals Refining Zambia - CID002854 |
| |
• | Fidelity Printers and Refiners - CID002515 |
| |
• | Sudan Gold Refinery - CID002567 |
| |
• | African Gold Refinery Limited (AGR) - CID003185 |
When these facilities were reported on a CMRT by one of the suppliers surveyed, risk mitigation activities were initiated. Through our third-party vendor, submissions that include any of the above facilities immediately receive a response instructing the supplier to take their own risk mitigation actions, including submission of product-specific CMRT to better identify the connection to products that they supply to Donaldson.
Additionally, suppliers are evaluated on program strength, which further assists in identifying risk in the supply chain. At this stage in Conflict Minerals compliance it is well-known that many companies are in the middle of the process and do not have many answers beyond “unknown”. It has been decided that penalizing or failing them for working through the process is likely not the best approach as it does not meet the goals or spirit of the Rule; however, evaluating and tracking the strength of the program does meet the OECD Due Diligence Guidelines and can assist in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses. The criteria used to evaluate the strength of the supplier’s program are:
| |
• | Does the supplier have a policy in place that includes DRC conflict-free sourcing? |
| |
• | Has the supplier implemented due diligence measures for conflict-free sourcing? |
| |
• | Does the supplier verify due diligence information received from its suppliers? |
| |
• | Does the supplier’s verification process include corrective action management? |
When a supplier meets these criteria, the supplier is deemed to have a strong program. When a supplier does not meet these criteria, the supplier is deemed to have a weaker program.
We calculate supplier risk based on the chances that a supplier provides Conflict Minerals that may originate from non-conflict free sources. The value of this risk is calculated based on the risk ratings of the SORs declared by that supplier on their CMRT.
As part of our risk management plan and to ensure suppliers understand our expectations, we have, through our third party, provided video and written training on Conflict Minerals and the CMRT. This training includes instructions on completing the form and one-on-one email and phone discussions with supplier personnel.
Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks:
The Company, in conjunction with a third-party vendor, identified, assessed, and responded to risks in the supply chain. The status of this process is reported on a regular basis to the Company’s senior management.
The Company worked with its third-party vendor to help improve the quality of the information provided to the Company by its supply chain and to help strengthen its Conflict Minerals programs through education and direct support. Where SOR risks were identified the actions taken were consistent with the Company’s Conflict Minerals policy.
As per the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, risk mitigation will depend on the supplier’s specific context. Suppliers are given clear performance objectives within reasonable timeframes with the goal of progressive elimination of these risks from the supply chain. In addition, suppliers are guided to the educational tools available through our third-party vendor to engage in educational materials on mitigating the risk of smelters or refiners on the supply chain.
Carry out independent third-party audit of smelter/refiners’ due diligence practices:
The Company does not have any direct relationship with SORs and does not perform or direct audits on SORs identified by our supply chain. Instead Donaldson relies on third-party audits performed by an internationally-recognized validation organization. Donaldson is a member of RMI and therefore has access to RMI’s audit program.
Report annually on supply chain due diligence:
The Form Specialized Disclosure (“Form SD”) and CMR are contained herein and are publicly available at https://ir.donaldson.com/financial-information/sec-filings/default.aspx
The Company believes that the inquiries and investigations described above represent a reasonable effort to determine the mines or locations of origin of the Conflict Minerals in our Covered Products (the products purchased or manufactured by Donaldson where conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of the product).

| | |
| 6. | Steps to Improve Due Diligence |
The Company will endeavor to improve upon its supply chain due diligence efforts through the following efforts:
|
| |
· | Continue to assess the presence of Conflict Minerals in its supply chain; |
|
| |
· | Communicate expectations with regard to supplier performance, transparency, and sourcing; |
| |
· | Continue to compare RCOI results to the most currently available information collected via independent conflict free smelter validation programs such as the RBA-GeSI Responsible Minerals Assurance Process - RMAP. |
