Exhibit 1.01
INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2016
1. Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (“Report”) of Interlink Electronics, Inc. has been prepared in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 13p-1”) for the reporting period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016. As used in this Report and unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Interlink,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are references to Interlink Electronics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Rule 13p-1 was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement certain disclosure requirements related to minerals specified in the rule. The specified minerals are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten, and are referred to in this Report as “conflict minerals”. Rule 13p-1 requires disclosure of certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which conflict minerals are necessary to the production or functionality of those products. If conflict minerals are necessary, the registrant must conduct a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”), to determine whether any conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or any adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered Countries”), or are from recycled or scrap sources.
2. Company Overview
Interlink designs, develops, manufactures and sells a range of force-sensing technologies that incorporate our proprietary materials technology, firmware and software into a portfolio of standard sensor-based products and custom sensor-system solutions. These include sensor components, subassemblies, modules and products that support effective, efficient cursor control and novel three-dimensional user inputs. Our human machine interface technology platforms are deployed in a wide range of markets including consumer electronics, automotive, industrial, and medical.
3. Conflict Minerals Policy
We have adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy that states our commitment to ethical business conduct and the responsible sourcing of minerals through our global supply chain. The Conflict Minerals Policy is available on our website at www.interlinkelectronics.com under “Investors—Corporate Governance.”
4. Supply Chain and Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
We determined that certain conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality of one or more of our products that we manufactured or had manufactured during the reporting period, and thus conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry to determine whether any conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of such products originated in the Covered Countries or are from recycled or scrap sources. We established an internal team responsible for the reasonable country of origin inquiry, which included employees involved with material procurement. We also engaged a third-party consulting firm, Source Intelligence, to assist with the collection of information about the presence and sourcing of conflict minerals used in the products and components supplied to us.
We contract with numerous suppliers that contribute to the manufacture of our products, and are several levels removed from the smelters or refiners (“SORs”) that process the minerals used in our products and from the mines of origin for those minerals. Interlink does not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals, and we made no purchases in the Covered Countries. As a result, in conducting our RCOI, we necessarily relied upon our suppliers to provide conflict minerals sourcing information and identify those SORs that represent the sources of conflict minerals in our supply chain.
4.1 Reasonable Country of Inquiry Process
The RCOI began with an evaluation of our suppliers who provided materials, components or products that became part of products we manufactured or contracted to be manufactured in 2016 which contained or were likely to contain conflict minerals necessary to the production or functionality of those products. Through this evaluation, we identified 57 suppliers (“Identified Suppliers”) who provided us with materials, components or products in 2016 to be contacted as part of our RCOI.
We contacted each of the Identified Suppliers by introductory email containing a registration and survey request link for an on-line data collection platform. The Identified Suppliers were asked to provide information about the presence and sourcing of conflict minerals used in the products and components supplied to Interlink, with the ultimate objective of identifying for any conflict minerals the SORs and the associated mine countries of origin. To collect this information, we utilized the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative’s (“CFSI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT), versions 3.0 or higher. If an Identified Supplier failed to respond to our request for information or provided an incomplete or insufficient response, we sent follow-up inquiries requesting a complete response. In addition, supplier responses were evaluated for plausibility, consistency and gaps, and Identified Suppliers were contacted if any of the following quality control issues were identified:
· One or more SORs were listed for an unused metal;
· SOR information was not provided for a used metal, or SOR information provided was not a verified metal processor;
· The supplier answered yes to sourcing from the Covered Countries, but none of the SORs listed are known to source from the region;
· The supplier indicated that they had not received conflict minerals data for each metal from all relevant suppliers;
· The supplier indicated that they had not identified all of the SORs used for the products included in the declaration scope;
· The supplier indicated that they had not provided all applicable SOR information received; or
· The supplier indicated 100% of the conflict minerals for products covered by the declaration originated from scrap/recycled sources, but one or more SORs listed are not known to be exclusive recyclers.
4.2 Survey Responses
The response rate among the Identified Suppliers was 67%. Of these responding suppliers, 45% indicated one or more of the conflict minerals as necessary to the functionality or production of the products they supply to Interlink. From the survey information provided by those responding suppliers indicating the presence of conflict minerals, and based on the SOR database maintained by Source Intelligence, there is an indication that 64 out of 300 verified SORs sourced conflict minerals originating in the Covered Countries.
2
Consequently, Interlink has concluded that certain of its products in calendar year 2016 contain conflict minerals that may have originated in the Covered Countries and were not from scrap or recycled sources.
For those supply chains with SORs that are known or thought to be sourcing conflict minerals in the Covered Countries, additional investigation is needed to determine the source and chain-of-custody of the conflict minerals. For this reason, and because only 67% of the Identified Suppliers responded to our RCOI request for information, we are unable to determine whether any conflict minerals in products that we manufactured or had manufactured in 2016 financed or benefited armed groups in a Covered Country.
4.3 SOR Summary
In response to our RCOI, our responding suppliers identified 300 SORs in their CMRTs which may have processed conflict minerals contained in materials, components or products provided to us. A list of these SORs is set forth in Annex I. We believe that these 300 SORs source minerals that originate from those countries listed in Annex III, as well as from recycled and scrap sources. We cross-referenced these SORs against the list of facilities that have received a “conflict free” designation from the Conflict-Free Smelter Program (“CFSP”) and its cross-recognized programs (e.g. the Responsible Jewellery Council and the London Bullion Market Association), whose designations provide country of origin and additional due diligence information on the conflict minerals sourced by such facilities. Of the 300 identified SORs, 64 sourced conflict minerals originating in the Covered Countries. A list of these SORs is set forth in Annex II. Of these 64 SORs, as of April 21, 2017:
· 63 have received a “conflict free” designation from the CFSP and are considered “compliant”; and
· one has ceased operations.
Under the CFSP’s standards, “compliant” means a facility has been audited and found to be compliant with the relevant CFSP protocol.
5. Risk Mitigation Efforts
Interlink intends to undertake the following additional steps to continue to mitigate any possible risk that the necessary conflict minerals in our products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:
· Encourage Identified Suppliers to provide additional, product-level information through ongoing communications with them;
· Engage Identified Suppliers that provided incomplete responses, or failed to provide a response, for the Reporting Period to ensure that such suppliers provide a complete response for the calendar year ended December 31, 2017;
· Continue to conduct and report annually on supply chain RCOI for the applicable conflict minerals;
· Continue to refine our risk management strategy based on the results of our RCOI efforts; and
· Communicate to any new suppliers our expectations with respect to conflict minerals, including through delivery of our Conflict Minerals Policy and our supplier qualification and assessment process
