Background
Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) promulgated rules (the Final Rule) requiring certain companies with “conflict minerals” (columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten) that are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by or for
1
that company to, among other things, disclose annually whether any of those conflict minerals originated in the Covered Countries; and if so, to submit a report to the SEC that includes a description of the measures it took to exercise due diligence on the conflict minerals’ source and chain of custody.
In anticipation of the Final Rule, the Electronics Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) established an initiative that is known as the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI). The CFSI, which is comprised of over 350 companies from multiple industries, together with the EICC and GeSI, strive to promote the improvement of human welfare and the environment through responsible and proactive supply chain management in conflict affected and high risk areas globally.
We are a member of the EICC, have adopted the EICC Code of Conduct and expect all of our direct suppliers to act in accordance with this Code of Conduct. By employing EICC tools and working collaboratively with our peers, we are working to improve transparency and sustainability in the global electronics supply chain. We hold a position on the Board of Directors of the EICC and actively participate in and support the CFSI’s responsible sourcing initiatives.
We, along with many other companies, rely on the CFSI’s CFSP to verify processing facilities as not directly or indirectly financing or benefiting armed groups in the Covered Countries (CFSP-compliant). The CFSI also recognizes responsible sourcing practices of processing facilities that have been accredited by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) or certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC).
Summary
In accordance with the Final Rule, we conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) that was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the necessary conflict minerals in our products originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources.
Based on our RCOI, we have reason to believe that some of the necessary conflict minerals used in our products may have originated in the Covered Countries (and may not have been from recycled or scrap sources). Accordingly, we exercised due diligence to determine the source and chain of custody of these conflict minerals. Our due diligence was designed to conform to an internationally recognized due diligence framework, specifically the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) “Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (OECD Guidance),” 3rd edition (2016).
Following the exercise of our due diligence (which is inherently subject to and limited by our ability to obtain reliable mine or location of origin information for conflict minerals that are used specifically in our products), we have not identified any instances in which our sourcing of necessary conflict minerals directly or indirectly financed or benefitted armed groups in the Covered Countries.

Description of Supply Chain
During the reporting period, we utilized a fabless production model in the manufacturing of our integrated circuits, which means that we did not own or operate foundries for the production of silicon wafers from which our integrated circuits were made. Integrated circuits are die cut from silicon wafers that have completed the package assembly and test manufacturing processes. We employ both turnkey and two-stage manufacturing models to purchase our integrated circuits. Under the turnkey model, our foundry suppliers are responsible for delivering fully assembled and tested integrated circuits. Under the two-stage manufacturing model, we purchase die in singular or wafer form from semiconductor manufacturing foundries and contract with separate third-party suppliers for manufacturing services such as wafer bump, probe, assembly and final test. We rely on our direct suppliers to perform the manufacturing and assembly, and most of the testing, of our integrated circuits based primarily on our proprietary designs and test programs. Our direct suppliers and, in turn, their suppliers, are responsible for the procurement of most of the raw materials used in the production of our integrated circuits. Certain materials purchased by our direct suppliers may come directly or indirectly from processing facilities that treat ores, concentrates, slags or secondary materials. Because we do not purchase any materials directly from these processing facilities, we must rely on the information provided by our direct suppliers and the CFSI or other industry organizations in order to prepare this Report.
Our other products are primarily contracted to be manufactured as finished goods with the contract manufacturer responsible for the procurement of the materials and components that comprise these products.

Conflict Free Minerals Policy
Our conflict free minerals policy communicates the expectation that our direct suppliers obtain materials from environmentally and socially responsible sources, including conflict free sources within the Covered Countries (available at: https://www.qualcomm.com/company/sustainability/products/conflict-free-minerals).
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
In accordance with the Final Rule, we conducted in good faith an RCOI that was reasonably designed to determine whether or not any of the necessary conflict minerals in our products originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources.
To conduct our RCOI and obtain sourcing information from our direct suppliers, we used the CFSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT). We requested this information and received responses from 100% of our direct suppliers that may use necessary conflict minerals in our products to determine whether any of these materials originated in the Covered Countries.
Our RCOI considered the countries of origin information obtained from our direct suppliers and CFSP-compliant processing facilities’ country of origin data available to CFSI members. Based on these sources of country of origin information, approximately 5% (16) of the processing facilities reported by our direct suppliers were confirmed as sourcing conflict minerals from the Covered Countries.
Design of Due Diligence
Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, to the framework provided by the OECD Guidance.
OECD Step 1: Establish Strong Company Management Systems
• | We publicly communicate our conflict free minerals policy on our website. |
• | We maintain a conflict minerals working group with representation from our finance, government affairs, internal audit, legal, regulatory, quality and supply chain departments, which report on compliance activities to executive management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. |
• | We include conflict free minerals requirements in purchasing documents to direct suppliers. |
• | We maintain a public contact form on our website for general inquiries and grievances regarding our conflict minerals program (available at: |
https://www.qualcomm.com/company/sustainability/products/conflict-free-minerals/contact-us).
OECD Step 2: Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain
• | We use the CMRT to review our direct suppliers’ due diligence activities, such as whether they have a conflict minerals policy, require their own suppliers to source from CFSP-compliant processing facilities, and have a review process that includes corrective action management. |
• | We use the CMRT to identify conflict minerals processing facilities when reported in our supply chain by our direct suppliers. |
4
• | We obtain countries of origin information (when available) for CFSP-compliant processing facilities by relying on data provided by our direct suppliers and the CFSI. |
• | We conduct on-site and remote assessments of our direct suppliers’ due diligence activities to validate CMRT responses and ensure our supplier requirements are being met. |
• | We participate in CFSP site visits to processing facilities to encourage participation in the CFSP. |
OECD Step 3: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Risk
• | We maintain a conflict minerals risk management plan that sets forth direct supplier risk management strategies ranging from continued procurement to disengagement at the discretion of management. |
• | We support the development of due diligence practices through participation in CFSI working groups. |
• | We report information on the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals in our supply chain to our conflict minerals working group, executive management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. |
OECD Step 4: Third-Party Audit of Processing Facilities’ Due Diligence Practices
• | We use the publicly available results of the CFSP, LBMA and RJC third-party audits to validate the responsible sourcing practices of processing facilities in our supply chain. |
• | We support independent third-party audits of processing facilities through our CFSI membership. |
OECD Step 5: Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence
• | We file a Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report with the SEC on an annual basis. Our Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report are also available on our website. |
• | We provide information regarding our conflict minerals program in the Qualcomm Sustainability Report, in our Conflict Minerals White Paper “Supporting a Conflict Free Supply Chain” and on our conflict minerals website. |
Description of Due Diligence Performed
Below is a description of the measures we performed for this reporting period to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of our necessary conflict minerals that may have originated in the Covered Countries.
• | We conducted our supply chain survey on 100% of our direct suppliers that may use necessary conflict minerals in our products to determine whether any of these minerals originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources. |
• | We determined if the processing facilities reported to us by our direct suppliers adhere to responsible sourcing practices by verifying whether they are CFSP-compliant. |
• | We communicated and addressed instances identified in the CMRT with our direct suppliers in which our requirements were not met or quality issues were apparent. This communication reinforced our requirements to support the sourcing of materials from conflict free sources within the Covered Countries. |
• | We conducted four on-site and one remote conflict minerals verification assessments of due diligence activities performed by integrated circuit direct suppliers. The assessments included identifying improvement opportunities and corrective actions. |
5
• | We participated in five CFSP site visits to processing facilities in Asia to encourage participation in the CFSP. Of the five processing facilities visited, four became CFSP-compliant during the reporting period. |
• | We presented at the International Precious Metals Institute (IPMI) conference to encourage the participation of processing facilities in the CFSP. |
• | We were members of non-profit and industry initiatives, including the Public-Private Alliance for Responsible Minerals Trade, CFSI and the iTSCi Programme. |
• | We provided funding to non-profit and industry initiatives, including the Responsible Minerals Multi-Stakeholder Network, Pact, the iTSCi Programme and the CFSP Initial Audit Fund. |
• | We reported on program activities to members of executive management four times and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors one time in 2016. |
Facilities Used to Process the Necessary Conflict Minerals in Our Products
We rely on the good faith efforts of our direct suppliers to provide us with reasonable representations of the processing facilities used to supply the necessary conflict minerals in our products. In the reporting period, 36% of our direct supplier responses represented their supply chain at a company level, 33% at a product level and 31% at a supplier-defined level (e.g., at a divisional or subsidiary level). As such, the list of processing facilities disclosed at the end of this Report may over-represent the number of processing facilities that process the conflict minerals contained in our products.
All processing facilities listed in this Report are reported by CFSP status in tables 1, 2 and 3 in the section “Tables of Conflict Minerals Processing Facilities” at the end of this Report.
Country of Origin of the Necessary Conflict Minerals in Our Products
Based on country of origin information provided by the CFSI for CFSP-compliant processing facilities, countries of origin of the necessary conflict minerals in our products may include: Australia, Austria, Bolivia (Plurinational State of), Brazil, Burundi, Cambodia, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ecuador, Ethiopia, France, Guatemala, Guinea, Guyana, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Madagascar, Malaysia, Mexico, Mongolia, Mozambique, Myanmar, Namibia, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Panama, Peru, Portugal, Russia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Spain, Thailand, Uganda, United States of America, Uzbekistan, Viet Nam and Zimbabwe.
Our Efforts to Determine the Mine or Location of Origin of the Necessary Conflict Minerals in Our Products
We requested location of mine and location of origin information for the necessary conflict minerals contained in our products from each of our direct suppliers using the CMRT. In some instances, our direct suppliers reported the name or location of the mine. However, many of our direct suppliers were unable to obtain reliable mine or location of origin data for the necessary conflict minerals.
Steps We Have Taken to Mitigate the Risk that our Necessary Conflict Minerals Benefit Armed Groups
6
Through our efforts to work with our direct suppliers on responsible sourcing and our active participation in the CFSI, we continued to see improvements in the number of CFSP-compliant and CFSP-active status processing facilities that may supply conflict minerals contained in our integrated circuit products.
Figure 1 displays the CFSP status of processing facilities in our integrated circuit products supply chain from reporting year 2013 to 2016. From reporting year 2015 to 2016, CFSP-compliant processing facilities in our integrated circuit products supply chain increased from 142 to 180.
Figure 1: 2013-2016 Processing Facilities by CFSP Status for Integrated Circuit Products
Note: CFSP-compliant processing facilities are compliant with the CFSP audit protocols and include processing facilities currently undergoing a re-audit or processing facilities certified by the LBMA or RJC. CFSP-active processing facilities have committed to undergo a CFSP audit. Non-participating processing facilities meet the definition of a smelter or refiner under the CFSP protocols but are not participating in the CFSP.
Steps We Will Take to Mitigate the Risk that our Necessary Conflict Minerals Benefit Armed Groups
During reporting year 2017, we intend to conduct the following due diligence activities to continue to mitigate the risk that our necessary conflict minerals directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:
1. | Engage with direct suppliers, processing facilities and the CFSI to encourage non-participating processing facilities to become CFSP-compliant; |
7
2. | Strive to use only direct suppliers that source from CFSP-compliant processing facilities for our integrated circuit and other products; |
3. | Conduct on-site verification assessments of certain suppliers’ due diligence activities; |
4. | Conduct due diligence on new businesses acquired to assess the risk of conflict minerals in the acquired business supply chain; and |
5. | Participate in the following industry coalitions’ and non-governmental organizations’ efforts to support the responsible sourcing of minerals: EICC, CFSI, ITRI, Public-Private Alliance for Responsible Minerals Trade, Pact and the Responsible Minerals Multi-Stakeholder Network. |
