Exhibit 1.01
BLACK BOX CORPORATION
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Reporting Period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015
General
This Conflict Minerals Report of Black Box Corporation (“Black Box,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is filed for the reporting period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015 (the “2015 Compliance Period”) in accordance with Section 13(p)-1 and Form SD (collectively, the “Rule”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”). The Rule imposes a reporting obligation of certain information when a company “manufactures” or “contracts to manufacture” products for which the conflict minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten (the “Conflict Minerals”). The “Covered Countries” for purposes of the Rule are the Democratic Republic of Congo and the adjoining countries (as defined in the Rule).
Description of Products Covered
Black Box is a leading technology solutions provider dedicated to helping customers design, build, manage and secure their Information Technology (“IT”) infrastructure. The Company offers Products and Services that it distributes through two platforms it has built over its 40-year history. Under the Products platform, we provide networking solutions through the sale of products for IT infrastructure, specialty networking, multimedia and keyboard/video/mouse ("KVM") switching. Our Services platform is comprised of engineering and design, network operations centers, technical certifications, national and international sales teams, remote monitoring, on-site service teams and technology partner centers of excellence, which include dedicated sales and engineering resources. The primary services offered through the Services platform include communications lifecycle services, unified communications, structured cabling, video/AV services, in-building wireless and data center services.
One or more of the Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of many products across Black Box’s Product platform and Services platform, that were manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the Company during the 2015 Compliance Period (the “Covered Products”). Various components and subassemblies for the Covered Products are sourced from a global supply base that include distributors, value added resellers, original equipment manufacturers and contract manufacturers. These components and subassemblies are used, in whole or in part, by Black Box to manufacture, or to have contract manufactured, certain products in its Product platform and, to a lesser extent, its’ Services platform. Since these components and subassemblies come from numerous suppliers, Black Box’s knowledge about these products is largely limited to information provided by its suppliers regarding the contents of these products as well as whether Conflict Minerals are present in a product.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Having determined that the Rule applies to the Covered Products, we undertook an inquiry of our suppliers on Conflict Minerals that were in the supply chain in 2015 to determine whether these Conflict Minerals were sourced from the Covered Countries or came from recycled or scrap resources. Black Box has concluded in good faith that during the 2015 Compliance Period:
| |
| • | Black Box has manufactured and contract manufactured products that contain Conflict Minerals that are necessary to the functionality and production of such products; and |
| |
| • | Black Box did not have sufficient information from our suppliers to reach a conclusion as to all sources of Conflict Minerals in the Covered Products. |
Due Diligence
On an annual basis, Black Box exercises due diligence to determine the source and chain of custody of Conflict Minerals for the Covered Products. Black Box’s due diligence conforms in all material respects with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas Second Edition (OECD 2012) (“OECD Framework”) and related supplements for each of the Conflict Minerals.
Black Box, as a purchaser of materials, components and products, is many steps removed from the mining of Conflict Minerals and does not purchase raw ore or unrefined Conflict Minerals. Identifying the presence of Conflict Minerals is a highly complex and challenging undertaking and the origin of Conflict Minerals cannot be determined with any certainty once the raw ores are smelted, refined and converted to ingots, bullion or other Conflict Mineral containing derivatives. Black Box, during the 2015 Compliance period, focused its efforts to reduce the number of suppliers of products that contain conflict minerals, enhance its due diligence program and identify, where possible, the smelters/refiners within its supply chain.
Black Box maintains a system of internal controls to identify and trace Conflict Minerals usage within its supply chain. A summary of Black Box’s due diligence framework is outlined below.
Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
| |
| • | Black Box maintains a formal written Conflict Minerals policy that reflects its commitment to achieve a "DRC conflict free" determination over time. The Black Box Conflict Minerals policy is publicly available on its Internet website at http://investor.blackbox.com/corporate-governance.cfm and is reviewed annually or as conditions change. |
| |
| • | Black Box maintains a governance process to oversee its Conflict Minerals Compliance Program that includes a Steering Committee and a Core Team. The Steering Committee's objective is to solicit the participation of the Company’s leadership to maintain the governance structure which enables sustainable compliance and actively mitigates the risk of not meeting regulatory requirements. The activities of the Core Team include the maintenance, implementation and reporting of due diligence activities, compliance project plan, supplier communications and training, project status, the retention policy, in addition to the management of the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry process described in Step 3. The Company evaluates the composition of the Steering Committee and the Core Team annually or as conditions change. |
| |
| • | The Company actively cooperates and participates with industry associations to enhance transparency and traceability in the supply chain. |
| |
| • | Black Box maintains records for at least five years relating to its Conflict Minerals program. |
| |
| • | Black Box communicates its policy and the supplier’s responsibilities regarding Conflict Minerals to all existing and new suppliers to help support its due diligence efforts. |
| |
| • | Black Box implemented a formal company level grievance mechanism during the 2015 compliance period to facilitate information from interested parties regarding Black Box’s sourcing strategy, use of Conflict Minerals within its supply chain, and alleged instances of non-compliance. Such grievance mechanism is available in our Conflict Minerals Policy which is available on our internet website. |
Step 2: Identify and assess risks in the supply chain
| |
| • | Black Box annually identifies its high-risk parts and suppliers using a risk-based approach to assess risk of Conflict Minerals in the supply chain. |
| |
| • | Black Box annually surveys its suppliers using a questionnaire, based on the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT), to identify components and products containing Conflict Minerals and report their country of origin and smelters and refiners being utilized. |
| |
| • | In connection with this annual supplier survey, Black Box collects supplier responses which are reviewed for completeness and sufficiency, aggregated and summarized. For non-responsive suppliers, the Company provides supplier outreach to gather all available information for the Compliance Period. |
| |
| • | Black Box annually reviews and assesses summary smelter information to determine if the smelter is certified as conflict free or if supporting information presents a "red flag" as defined by the OECD Guidance. Black Box relies upon information provided by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative’s (“CFSI”) publically available list of smelters/refiners that have been certified by CFSI as conflict free. |
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
| |
| • | The Core Team summarizes information gathered on the actual and potential risks identified in the supply chain risk assessment and communicates it to the Steering Committee on a periodic basis. |
| |
| • | Additional fact finding, risk assessments, and changes in circumstances take place a part of the Black Box annual review of its Conflict Minerals program. |
Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner's due diligence practices
| |
| • | Black Box monitors, and encourages their suppliers to monitor industry wide Conflict Mineral activities including, but not limited to, results of smelter audits and incorporation of new smelters/refiners through the CFSI. |
| |
| • | Given the nature of the Black Box business, its position in the supply chain, the associated cost and the current lack of transparency in the supply chain, Black Box is not in a position to audit smelters/refiners directly. |
Step 5: Report annually on supply chain due diligence
| |
| • | Black Box annually reviews compliance-related results, summarizes such results on Form SD and the Conflict Minerals Report and files such report with the SEC in a timely manner. |
Steps Taken to Mitigate Risk and Improve Due Diligence
Black Box will continue to strengthen its Conflict Minerals Program and improve its due diligence efforts through increased focused efforts including:
| |
| • | Black Box plans to support and build capabilities of suppliers to improve performance and conform to our Conflict Minerals Policy including training. |
| |
| • | Black Box plans to develop and adopt a formal risk mitigation plan to systematically reduce the exposure to Conflict Minerals risk in its supply chain which may include suspending or discontinuing supplier engagements. |
| |
| • | Black Box plans to consider participating (and encouraging their suppliers to participate) in industry driven certification programs thereby allowing for joint spot checks (within an economically viable framework) of mineral smelter and refinery facilities. |
| |
| • | Black Box plans to enhance the use of IT for improved tracking, evaluating and storing of information for our Covered Products. |
| |
| • | Black Box plans to incorporate its conflict minerals policy into long-term contractual obligations with new suppliers. |
| |
| • | Black Box plans to implement formal record retention guidelines for its Conflict Minerals program. |
Determination
The Company decreased the number of suppliers who provide products that contain conflict minerals by 48% over the prior year. In addition, Black Box increased its supplier survey response rate by 44% over the prior year as a results of its efforts in this area.
Pursuant to SEC guidance issued April 29, 2014 and the SEC order issued May 2, 2014, Black Box is not required to describe any of its products as “DRC conflict free” (as defined in Section 1, Item 1.01(d)(4) of Form SD), “DRC conflict undeterminable” (as defined in Section 1, Item 1.01(d)(5) of Form SD) or “having not been found to be ‘DRC conflict free,’ ” and therefore makes no conclusion in this regard in the report presented herein. Furthermore, given that Black Box has not voluntarily elected to describe any of its products as “DRC conflict free,” an independent private sector audit of the report presented herein has not been conducted. See Appendix A for smelters and refiners that were obtained via product-level responses from our suppliers. The supplier responses included Conflict Free, Known and Unknown smelters, but based on the absence of reliable information on the Unknown smelters, only the Conflict Free and Known smelters have been included.
