Background
Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) promulgated a rule (the Final Rule) requiring certain companies with conflict minerals (columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to
1
tantalum, tin and tungsten) that are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by or for 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.
The Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) established an initiative that is known as the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI). The RMI, which is comprised of over 370 companies from multiple industries, together with the RBA and GeSI, strive to provide companies with tools and resources to make sourcing decisions that improve regulatory compliance and support responsible sourcing from conflict-affected and high-risk areas.
We are a full member of the RBA, have adopted the RBA Code of Conduct and expect all of our direct suppliers to act in accordance with this Code of Conduct. By employing RBA tools and working collaboratively with our peers, we are working to improve transparency and sustainability in the global electronics supply chain. We actively participate in and support the RMI’s responsible sourcing initiatives.
We, along with many other companies, rely on the RMI’s RMAP to verify processing facilities as not directly or indirectly financing or benefiting armed groups in the Covered Countries (RMAP-Conformant). The RMI 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 believe that some of the necessary conflict minerals used in our products originated in one or more of the Covered Countries (and are not 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,” 3rd edition (2016) (OECD Guidance).
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.
Product Description
I. | Integrated Circuit Products |
Our integrated circuit products are sold to manufacturers that use our products in a broad range of devices in support of CDMA- and OFDMA-based technologies, from low-tier, entry-level devices primarily for emerging regions to premium-tier devices, including mobile devices (primarily smartphones), tablets, laptops, data modules, handheld wireless computers and gaming devices, access points and routers, broadband gateway equipment, data cards and infrastructure equipment, IoT devices and applications, other consumer electronics and automotive telematics and infotainment systems. The Qualcomm® SnapdragonTM family of integrated circuit products include the Snapdragon mobile, compute and automotive platforms. Each platform consists of application processors and wireless
2
connectivity capabilities, including our cellular modem that provides core baseband modem functionality for voice and data communications, non-cellular wireless connectivity (such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth) and global positioning functions. Our Snapdragon application processor functions include security, graphics, display, audio, video, camera and artificial intelligence. In addition to the highly integrated core system on a chip, we also design and supply supporting components, including the Radio Frequency (RF), Power Management, audio, codecs, speaker amps and additional wireless connectivity integrated circuits. Our portfolio of RF products includes Qualcomm radio frequency front-end (RFFE) components that are designed to simplify the RF design for 5G front-end, LTE multimode and multiband mobile devices and to reduce power consumption and improve radio performance.
Our wireless connectivity products are also sold to manufacturers that use our products for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, frequency modulation and near field communications, as well as technologies that support location data and services, including GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo. Our networking products include Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Powerline chipsets and network processors.
Revenues from the sale of integrated circuit products comprised greater than 99% of the total revenues for our products described in this Report during the reporting period.
II. | Other Products |
Our other products relate to our mobile health business, which we divested in early 2019. Revenues from the sale of such other products comprised less than 1% of the total revenues for our products described in this Report during the reporting period.
Description of Supply Chain
During the reporting period, other than for our RFFE modules and RF filter acoustic products, 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. Therefore, we primarily rely on independent third-party 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 suppliers also are responsible for the procurement of most of the raw materials used in the production of our integrated circuits. Integrated circuits are die cut from silicon wafers that have completed the package assembly and test manufacturing processes. The semiconductor package supports the electrical contacts that connect the integrated circuit to a circuit board. Die cut from silicon wafers are the essential components of all of our integrated circuits and a significant portion of the total integrated circuit cost. 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 the majority of our final test requirements.
We also used internal fabrication facilities to manufacture RFFE modules and RF filter acoustic products, and our manufacturing operations consist of front-end and back-end processes. The front-end processes primarily take place at manufacturing facilities located in Germany and Singapore and involve the imprinting of substrate silicon wafers with the circuitry required for semiconductors to function (also known as wafer fabrication). The back-end processes involve the assembly, packaging and test of semiconductors to prepare RFFE modules and RF filter acoustic products for distribution. The back-end manufacturing facilities are located in China, Germany and Singapore.

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 RMI or other industry organizations in order to prepare this Report.
Our other products were 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
To conduct our RCOI and obtain sourcing information from our direct suppliers, we used the RMI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT). We requested this information from 100% of our direct suppliers that may provide necessary conflict minerals in our products to determine whether any of these materials originated in the Covered Countries. We received CMRT responses from 100% of the direct suppliers of our integrated circuit products and from 89% of the direct suppliers of our other products.
Our RCOI considered the countries of origin information obtained from our direct suppliers as well as RMAP-Conformant processing facilities’ country of origin data available to RMI members. Based on these sources of country of origin information, approximately 5% (17) 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
4
• | 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 RMAP-Conformant 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. |
• | We obtain countries of origin information (when available) for RMAP-Conformant processing facilities by relying on data provided by our direct suppliers and the RMI. |
• | We conduct on-site and remote assessments of select direct suppliers’ due diligence activities to validate CMRT responses and ensure our supplier requirements are being met. |
• | We participate in RMAP site visits to processing facilities to encourage participation in the RMAP. |
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 RMI 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 RMAP, 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 RMI 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 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 RMAP-Conformant. |
• | 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. |
5
• | We conducted conflict minerals verification assessments of due diligence activities at four integrated circuit direct supplier sites. The assessments included identifying improvement opportunities and corrective actions. |
• | We were members of non-profit and industry initiatives, including the RMI and the International Tin Research Institute Supply Chain Initiative (iTSCi) Programme. |
• | We provided funding to the RBA Foundation’s Initial Audit Fund to support the development of smelter and refiner training materials. |
• | We reported on program activities to members of executive management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. |
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, 42% of our direct supplier responses represented their supply chain at a company level, 37% at a product level and 21% 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 RMAP status in Table 1 in the section “Table 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 RMI for RMAP-Conformant processing facilities, countries of origin of the necessary conflict minerals in our products may include: Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Benin, Bolivia, Bosnia, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cayman Islands, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Curacao, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Fiji, Finland, France, Gabon, Gambia, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Guatemala, Guinea, Guyana, Honduras, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Ivory Coast, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macau, Madagascar, Malaysia, Mali, Malta, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mexico, Mongolia, Morocco, Mozambique, Myanmar, Namibia, Netherlands, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Romania, Russian Federation, Rwanda, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Serbia, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, Somaliland, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Suriname, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Tanzania, Tajikistan, Thailand, Togo, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, United States of America, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Vatican City, Venezuela, Viet Nam, Yemen, Zambia 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
6
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
We have worked with our direct suppliers on responsible sourcing and have actively participated in the RMI’s responsible sourcing initiatives, as we continued to strive towards our goal of having the processing facilities that may supply conflict minerals contained in our products be 100% RMAP-Conformant. Additional information regarding the steps we have taken to mitigate the risk that conflict minerals that may be contained in our products benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries can be found under the sections “Design of Due Diligence” and “Description of Due Diligence Performed” above.
Figure 1 displays the RMAP status of processing facilities in our integrated circuit products supply chain from reporting year 2017 to 2019. From reporting year 2018 to 2019, RMAP-Conformant processing facilities in our integrated circuit products supply chain increased from 248 to 258.
Figure 1: 2017-2019 Processing Facilities by RMAP Status for Integrated Circuit Products
Note: RMAP-Conformant processing facilities are audited and found conformant with the relevant RMAP standard and include processing facilities currently undergoing a re-audit or processing facilities certified by the LBMA or RJC. RMAP-Active processing facilities have committed to undergo a RMAP audit but are not yet conformant. Non-Participating processing facilities meet or have met the definition of a smelter or refiner under the relevant RMAP standard but are not participating in the RMAP. The number of processing facilities in Figure 1 differ from the number of processing facilities in Table 1 below as Figure 1 only includes processing facilities related to our integrated circuit products.
7
Steps We Will Take to Mitigate the Risk that our Necessary Conflict Minerals Benefit Armed Groups
During reporting year 2020, 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 RMI to encourage Non-Participating processing facilities to become RMAP-Conformant; |
2. | Strive to use only direct suppliers that source from RMAP-Conformant 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 businesses’ supply chain; and |
5. | Participate in the following industry coalitions’ and non-governmental organizations’ efforts to support the responsible sourcing of minerals: RBA, RMI and ITRI (International Tin Research Institute). |
