Exhibit 1.01
Conflict Minerals Report
of NVIDIA Corporation
for the Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2024
This Conflict Minerals Report of NVIDIA Corporation, a Delaware corporation, is being filed for the calendar year ended December 31, 2024 in compliance with Rule 13p-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The use of conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of products NVIDIA contracted to be manufactured between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2024, or the Reporting Period, triggered a requirement to conduct in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry, or RCOI, regarding those conflict minerals that is reasonably designed to determine whether any of the conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, which we refer to collectively as the Covered Countries, or are from recycled or scrap sources. “Conflict minerals” are defined in Item 1.01(d)(3) of the Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD, or the Form SD, as columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten, or collectively, 3TG.
Based on the RCOI, if we have reason to believe conflict minerals in our products may have originated in the Covered Countries and have reason to believe that they may not be from recycled or scrap sources, we must exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of our conflict minerals, and file a Conflict Minerals Report to describe our due diligence efforts on the source and chain of custody of such 3TG.
OUR COMPANY
NVIDIA pioneered accelerated computing to help solve the most challenging computational problems. NVIDIA is now a full-stack computing infrastructure company with data-center-scale offerings that are reshaping industry.
Our data-center-scale offerings are comprised of compute and networking solutions that can scale to tens of thousands of GPU-accelerated servers interconnected to function as a single giant computer; this type of data center architecture and scale is needed for the development and deployment of modern AI applications.
We utilize a fabless and contracting manufacturing strategy, whereby we employ and partner with key suppliers for all phases of the manufacturing process, including wafer fabrication, assembly, testing, and packaging. We use the expertise of industry-leading suppliers that are certified by the International Organization for Standardization in such areas as fabrication, assembly, quality control and assurance, reliability, and testing. Additionally, we can avoid many of the significant costs and risks associated with owning and operating manufacturing operations. While we may directly procure certain raw materials used in the production of our products, such as memory, substrates, and a variety of components, our suppliers are responsible for procurement of most raw materials used in the production of our products. As a result, we can focus our resources on product design, quality assurance, marketing, and customer support.

OUR COMMITMENT TO RESPONSIBLE SOURCING
NVIDIA is committed to the responsible sourcing of minerals. Our goal is to use only conflict-free 3TG from Covered Countries in our products. We support and rely on industry-wide efforts to validate the source of minerals used in our products, including the Responsible Business Alliance, or RBA, the Responsible Minerals Initiative, or RMI, and the Public-Private Alliance for Responsible Minerals Trade. We also participate in various RMI work groups and align our program with their tracking of additional minerals and materials and higher-risk geographic areas.
DUE DILIGENCE PROGRAM DESIGN
Our conflict minerals due diligence program is designed to conform in all material respects with the framework recommended by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, or the OECD Guidance, as it relates to our supply chain position as a “downstream” purchaser. Summarized below are the components of our program as they relate to the five-step framework set forth in the OECD Guidance:
Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
•Adopted and published a Responsible Minerals Policy endorsed by our Executive Vice President, Operations, most recently updated in 2023, in which we adopted the Code of Conduct of the RBA and its standard for responsible sourcing of conflict minerals. The Responsible Minerals Policy is posted on our website at http://images.nvidia.com/content/includes/gcr/pdf/nvidia-responsible-minerals-policy.pdf
•Required that our suppliers and contract manufacturers acknowledge and implement the RBA’s Code of Conduct, including its obligation to conduct due diligence on the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals
•Established a system of control and transparency over our conflict minerals supply chain by engaging first-tier and second-tier suppliers and requesting relevant information through a third-party supplier management vendor utilizing due diligence tools created by the RMI, including the conflict minerals reporting template, or the CMRT
•Provided at least quarterly updates on our conflict minerals due diligence progress and status to our Executive Vice President, Operations
•Maintained a confidential corporate hotline for reporting concerns, including those related to conflict minerals (unless prohibited by local privacy laws for employees located in the European Union)
Step 2: Identify and assess risk in the supply chain
•Identified relevant suppliers that supplied products containing 3TG by reference to bills of materials
•Requested smelter and/or refiner information from those suppliers using the CMRT
•Reviewed supplier responses for completeness and accuracy
•Compared supplier responses with the list of 3TG processing facilities that received a “compliant” designation, produced by the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process, or RMAP, of the RMI, as well as with the smelters that were audited by the London Bullion Market Association, or LBMA, the Responsible Jewelry Council, or RJC, and the Tungsten Industry—Conflict Minerals Council, or TI-CMC
•Provided suppliers with feedback on responses containing errors, inconsistencies, or incomplete information
•Required potential new suppliers to complete a CMRT for diligence review and risk ranking
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
•Reported progress on at least a quarterly basis to our Executive Vice President, Operations
•Identified main risks in our supply chain
•Contacted certain smelter and refinery facilities not validated by third-party audits to request their participation
•Implemented a risk mitigation response plan to monitor unresponsive suppliers and/or incomplete or inaccurate supply chain information
•Compared the list of smelters in our supplier base against Office of Foreign Assets Control-sanctioned countries and Specially Designated Nationals
•Requested that certain suppliers remove specific smelters or refiners from their supply chain deemed to be high-risk
•Informed non-responsive suppliers that we will assess, and potentially withhold, future business for non-compliance with the Responsible Minerals Policy or failure to provide CMRT data
•Removed companies from our supplier base due in part to their failure to comply with our Responsible Minerals Policy
•Engaged with customers about their concerns and requests
Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain
•Relied on the RMAP, the LBMA, the RJC, and the TI-CMC to validate their sourcing practices
•Indirectly supported the third-party audits through our memberships in the RBA and RMI
•Participated in RBA work groups focused on smelter engagement
Step 5: Report on supply chain due diligence
•Adopted and published a Responsible Minerals Policy endorsed by our Executive Vice President, Operations, most recently updated in 2023, posted on our website at http://images.nvidia.com/content/includes/gcr/pdf/nvidia-responsible-minerals-policy.pdf
•Included conflict minerals information in our annual corporate responsibility report, posted on our website at https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/sustainability/
•Filed our Form SD for the Reporting Period, including this Conflict Minerals Report, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, also published at http://investor.nvidia.com/sec.cfm
•Reported supply chain smelter information in this Conflict Minerals Report
The contents of any website referenced in this Conflict Minerals Report are not a part of this Conflict Minerals Report.
REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY (RCOI)
Due to our complex, multi-tiered supply chain and fabless model, NVIDIA relies on suppliers for information about 3TG origins. For the RCOI, we identified relevant suppliers for the Reporting Period and requested smelter/refiner lists via the CMRT. We received responses from 100% of these suppliers and compared the data against the RCOI data provided by the RMAP.
Our RCOI revealed that, of the 246 processing facilities in our supply chain which sourced 3TG for our products contracted to be manufactured during the Reporting Period, 39 smelters and refiners were identified by the RMI as sourcing from the Covered Countries and were not solely from recycled or scrap sources. This is based on an RCOI report released by the RMI on March 28, 2025. We therefore believe that a portion of the 3TG contained in our products or components originated in the Covered Countries, necessitating this Conflict Minerals Report.
DESCRIPTION OF DUE DILIGENCE MEASURES PERFORMED
We requested supply chain information from 130 of our direct suppliers to determine whether any 3TG minerals in our products originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources. We used third-party supplier management software to track these communications, automate the identification of quality issues, aggregate CMRT responses for analysis and reporting, and perform additional follow up with suppliers whose CMRTs contained incomplete or potentially inaccurate information. After reviewing the names provided against the RMI lists of verified smelters and refiners, we consulted with RMI to distinguish those that were smelters and refiners from other participants in the upstream supply chain, such as brokers and traders. We provided our list of smelters and refiners for inclusion in the RMAP, which utilized an independent third party to conduct audits, according to the standards of the OECD Guidance, of willing smelters and refiners to determine the source and origin of their ore, as well as whether they were conflict-free.
COUNTRY AND MINE OR LOCATION OF ORIGIN OF NECESSARY CONFLICT MINERALS
Based on the due diligence described above, we determined that the supply chain for our products contracted to be manufactured during the Reporting Period sourced conflict minerals from up to 246 processing facilities worldwide, of which, as of March 28, 2025:
•211 have been validated by the RMAP as “compliant,” including 39 smelters and refiners which were identified by the RMI as sourcing from the Covered Countries;
•3 were “active” as defined by the RMAP and in the process of being audited by an independent third party;
•27 were classified by the RMAP as not in operation or having temporarily ceased operations, or had been reclassified as a non-smelter; and
•5 are under review by the RMAP as no longer compliant:
◦All 5 were compliant for 2024 but became non-compliant in the first calendar quarter of 2025, and we are working with our suppliers to encourage the smelters to participate again in the RMAP program.
A list of smelters and refiners that sourced 3TG for our products contracted to be manufactured during the Reporting Period is attached as Exhibit A.
We requested mine or location of origin information from each of our direct suppliers, most of which do not source directly from processing facilities, to determine the source and chain of custody of the 3TG in our supply chain. Based on country of origin information provided by the RMI for RMAP-compliant processing facilities, the 3TG in our products which may have originated from the Covered Countries came from one or more of the countries listed in the attached Exhibit B, and the 3TG in our products which may have originated from outside the Covered Countries came from one or more of the countries listed in the attached Exhibit C.
However, we are unable to determine, as of the date of the filing of the Form SD to which this Conflict Minerals Report is an exhibit, the origin of all 3TG minerals that were contained in the products we contracted to manufacture during the Reporting Period.
STEPS TAKEN OR TO BE TAKEN TO MITIGATE RISK AND IMPROVE DUE DILIGENCE
NVIDIA has been a member of the RBA since 2007. We have also been an active participant in the RMI, including its Due Diligence Practices Team. We also joined the Public-Private Alliance for Responsible Minerals Trade in 2013 to support their initiatives focused on improving the traceability of conflict minerals in Central Africa.
We are part of the Smelter Engagement Team sub-work group of the RMI, which encourages smelters and refiners to participate in the RMAP. Through the RBA and its work groups, we engaged with approximately 30 smelters or refiners that were neither compliant nor active, according to the RMAP and requested them to be audited by an independent third party. Since 2013 we have also independently contacted over 100 smelters and refiners directly to encourage them to be audited through RMAP.
NVIDIA maintains a goal of using only conflict-free 3TG. Our responsible minerals policy communicates expectations to suppliers regarding sourcing from conflict-free sources and providing CMRT data. Non-compliance can lead to reassessment of the business relationship, removal from the approved vendor list, or removal of non-compliant smelters from NVIDIA's supply chain.
In 2024, NVIDIA continued investigating cobalt and mica sourcing using its third-party software to survey suppliers. For 2025, NVIDIA plans to monitor evolving legal requirements (including EU requirements) and continue surveying for cobalt and mica using the RMI's Extended Minerals Reporting Template, or EMRT. To support the EU Batteries Regulation, we will also use the EMRT to survey for 4 additional materials in 2025, including copper, graphite (natural), lithium, and nickel.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON DUE DILIGENCE MEASURES
NVIDIA’s fabless manufacturing strategy and our contract manufacturing process for our branded devices means our due diligence measures can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals in the products we contract to have manufactured. Given our place in the supply chain, we have no direct relationships with smelters or refiners and therefore possess no independent means of determining the source and origin of conflict mineral ores processed by smelters or refiners. Our due diligence processes therefore require seeking data from our relevant suppliers and component manufacturers and those suppliers seeking similar information within their supply chains to identify the original sources of the necessary conflict minerals. We also rely largely on information collected and provided by independent third-party audit programs. Such sources of information may yield inaccurate or incomplete information and may be subject to fraud.
