Exhibit 1.01
LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.
CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT
FOR THE REPORTING PERIOD FROM JANUARY 1 TO DECEMBER 31, 2022
SECTION ONE: INTRODUCTION
This report for the calendar year ended December 31, 2022 is prepared in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”). In this Conflict Minerals Report (“CMR”), references to “Logitech”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” refer to Logitech International S.A. and its majority-owned subsidiaries.
The Rule imposes certain obligations on Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants whose products contain conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products (referred to as “conflict minerals”). Logitech manufactures or contracts to manufacture products that may contain tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold (“3TG”) that are necessary to the functionality or production of the products. Accordingly, the Company has undertaken the measures described in this CMR to trace the origin of these minerals and whether they may have been sourced from the Covered Countries. The Covered Countries for purposes of the Rule are the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola.
Statements in this CMR are based on our due diligence activities performed to date in good faith and are based on information available as of March 31, 2023, unless otherwise indicated. Factors that could affect the accuracy of these statements include, but are not limited to, implementation of compliance measures by our direct and indirect suppliers, incomplete supplier data, availability of smelter and refiner (collectively referred to as “Smelters” in this CMR) data, errors or omissions by suppliers or Smelters, ongoing certification of Smelters, continued guidance or amendments to the Rule, and other factors. Additionally, this CMR contains forward-looking statements reflecting the efforts we strive to achieve in the future as we continue to improve our responsible sourcing program. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. For more information, see Forward-Looking Statements below.
Company Overview
Founded in 1981, and headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, Logitech International (“Logitech” or the “Company”) is a Swiss public company listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (LOGN) and on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (LOGI). Logitech’s website address is www.logitech.com.
Logitech’s mission is to help all people pursue their passions in a way that is good for people and the planet. We design, manufacture and sell products that help businesses thrive and bring people together when working, creating, gaming and streaming. We sell these products through a number of brands: Logitech, Logitech G (including ASTRO Gaming, Streamlabs, and Blue Microphones) and Ultimate Ears.
Our products address primarily four large market opportunities: Creativity & Productivity, Gaming, Video Collaboration, and Music.
SECTION TWO: DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTS COVERED BY THIS REPORT
Conflict minerals in the form of the 3TG were necessary to the functionality or production of the following categories of products that we manufactured or contracted to have manufactured for us during 2022:
•Creativity and Productivity: Pointing Devices, Keyboard & Combos, PC Webcams, Tablet & Other Accessories
•Gaming: Gaming mice, keyboards, headsets and steering wheels, ASTRO gaming headsets
•Video Collaboration (VC): Conference room cameras, VC webcams and headsets
•Music: Mobile Speakers, Audio & Wearables
These products are more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, which can be accessed on our website at: https://ir.logitech.com/financial-info/sec-filings/ or on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
SECTION THREE: REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY
For the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2022 (“Reporting Period”), Logitech conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) to determine whether any of the conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of the products (“Necessary Conflict Minerals”) that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture originated in the Covered Countries. To make this determination, we engaged with our direct suppliers of materials, parts, components or products potentially containing 3TG (“In-Scope Suppliers”) to identify the Smelters of the Necessary Conflict Minerals.
Our RCOI included the following steps:
•From a total of 467 suppliers, 268 out of 467 were identified as In-Scope Suppliers who may contribute Necessary Conflict Minerals to our products. During the Reporting Period, we continued to refine the list of In-Scope Suppliers and removed those which did not use 3TG or were no longer in Logitech’s supply chain.
•We surveyed our In-Scope Suppliers using the current version of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template Revision 6.22 (“CMRT” or “Template”), which includes questions about the location or mine of origin. In-Scope Suppliers are obligated to make similar efforts to survey their supply chain using CMRT and report the facilities and location or mine of origin for 3TG. Given our position in the supply chain and the fact that Logitech does not directly purchase raw materials, we are several tiers away from the Smelters and country of origin for the 3TG used in our products. We therefore rely on our first-tier suppliers to provide information and we carry out due diligence activities to check and verify the accuracy of information provided by those suppliers.
•We reviewed the information provided by the In-Scope Suppliers with respect to a number of evaluation criteria to assess the adequacy of the information provided and determine the potential for sourcing from the Covered Countries. The reviewing criteria included but was not limited to:
◦Mandatory fields of the CMRT report were complete and accurate;
◦No contradictory information in the CMRT report;
◦The Smelters information was consistent with the Smelter database available to RMI members; and
◦Verification of supplier 3TG reported usage against Bill of Materials by applying established criteria and knowledge of where 3TG materials are utilized at component/part and product levels.
•We followed up with In-Scope Suppliers where necessary to clarify the information they provided or to seek additional information as part of our due diligence efforts.
•We implemented regular review and consolidation of all supplier responses. If any supplier did not provide timely and accurate information, an escalation process was engaged to address non-responders and obtain required information.
•We documented country of origin information of facilities which were identified by In-Scope Suppliers from multiple resources, including the independent third-party audit programs (e.g., RMI RCOI data), and an independent third-party assessment.
Our RCOI executive outcomes:
We sought and obtained a 100% response rate from In-Scope Suppliers. In-Scope Suppliers’ responses and RMI RCOI data indicated that some of the Smelters used in our supply chain may obtain 3TG from the Covered Countries. Other In-Scope Suppliers are using 3TG sources from outside the Covered Countries, recycled or scrap 3TG. Accordingly, we conducted due diligence to determine the source of 3TG metals and have prepared this Conflict Minerals Report.

SECTION FOUR: DUE DILIGENCE MEASURES
We conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of our products to ascertain whether these conflict minerals originated in the Covered Countries and directly or indirectly financed or benefited armed groups (as such term is defined by the SEC in Form SD) in any of these countries.
Design of Our Due Diligence Measures
Our conflict minerals due diligence measures are aligned with the requirements of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Third Edition (the “OECD Guidance”), as applicable for tin, tantalum, tungsten, gold and downstream companies (as the term is defined in the OECD Guidance), in all material respects. We designed our due diligence measures to:
1.Establish strong company management systems for conflict minerals supply chain due diligence;
2.Identify and assess conflict minerals risks in our supply chain;
3.Design and implement strategies to respond to conflict minerals risks identified;
4.Contribute to independent third-party audits of the due diligence practices of conflict minerals Smelters by participating in industry organizations; and
5.Report on our conflict minerals supply chain due diligence activities annually.
Due Diligence Measures Performed
As a purchaser, Logitech is many tiers removed from the mining of 3TG; Logitech does not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals, and does not directly purchase from the Covered Countries. The Smelters are consolidating points for raw ore and are best-positioned to determine and know the origin of the ores. For downstream users like Logitech, it is not possible to determine the origin of 3TG without information from suppliers and Smelters.
We are a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”), an initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance. As a member of the RMI, we leverage the due diligence conducted on Smelters by the RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (the “RMAP”). The RMAP uses independent private sector auditors to audit Smelters who agree to participate, including their 3TG chain of custody and the mines of origin. Smelters are deemed to be conformant with RMAP when the independent auditor has taken a risk-based approach to validate Smelters’ company level management processes for responsible mineral procurement. RMAP Assessments are valid for a period of either one or three years, depending on a number of factors.
Our due diligence measures included the following activities:
1.We utilized our existing experienced internal team to implement Logitech’s Responsible Sourcing of Minerals Program again in 2022. The team includes representatives from the following functions: Sustainability, Global Sourcing, Legal, Investor Relations, and Finance.
2.We reviewed and updated our Responsible Sourcing of Minerals Policy in 2022 and continue to make it available at: https://www.logitech.com/content/dam/logitech/en/sustainability/pdf/resources/responsible-minerals-sourcing-policy.pdf
3.We established requirements and continued to incorporate these requirements into our standard supplier contracts to define Logitech’s expectations of suppliers regarding sourcing of conflict minerals and reporting of information to Logitech. In addition, the Sustainability team and the Sourcing team quarterly review the new suppliers in order to ensure that they are enrolled in the Logitech’s Responsible Sourcing of Minerals Program.
4.We compared the Smelters identified by relevant In-Scope Suppliers through the supply chain survey against the list of facilities that are conformant to a responsible mineral sourcing validation program or undergoing an assessment such as the RMAP Conformant Smelters & Refiners list, the London Bullion Market Association (the “LBMA”) Good Delivery List, and the Responsible Jewellery Council (the “RJC”) Chain-of-Custody Certification Program.
5.We defined a risk management plan for the relevant In-Scope Suppliers that present a potential conflict minerals risk. In the Reporting Period, we continued to engage with a number of In-Scope Suppliers, e.g. training through video conference and phone. In addition, we requested those In-Scope Suppliers, who reported Smelters not yet participating in an independent third-party audit program, to provide a smelter action plan (SAP) to reach 100% participation by either removing those Smelters from their supply chain or encouraging Smelters to participate in independent third-party audit programs. We also monitored their SAP progress monthly.
6.During the Reporting Period, we removed 43 Smelters from our supply chain, including 32 that were not conforming to the Logitech Responsible Sourcing of Minerals Policy while the others were erroneously or unintentionally reported in 2022 by In-Scope Suppliers but were actually not in our supply chain.
7.We supported the RMI Responsible Minerals Assurance Process, and required relevant In-Scope Suppliers in the Logitech supply chain to encourage the facilities in their supply chain to participate in the RMAP. As a RMI member, we also support the refinement and expansion of the RMAP Conformant Smelters & Refiners list of participating Smelters through its membership in the RMI, as well as the smelter engagement efforts in the RMI working group.
8.We take a proactive approach by directly engaging with certain Smelters that may be at risk of non-conformance to ensure their consistent participation in the RMAP program.
9.To the extent reasonably possible, we also verified the mine sources information reported by Smelters relying on different resources, e.g., contacting Smelters directly, reviewing publicly available information, and utilizing RMI resources. Since reporting year 2021, we also utilized an independent third party to provide an assessment of Smelters disclosed by our In-Scope Suppliers, to conduct Smelter RCOI, verify data and identify risks in Smelters that have not yet undergone the RMAP or that have lost their RMAP conformant status.
SECTION FIVE: DUE DILIGENCE RESULTS
Smelters Due Diligence Results
Our supplier survey data revealed a total of 290 Smelters as potential sources of 3TG in the supply chain. Of these 290 potential Smelters, 43 Smelters were removed from our supply chain or not used in relation to Logitech products (see above) and six Smelters were not in active operation. Accordingly, 241 operational Smelter facilities were identified as potential sources of 3TG in our supply chain.
Further verifying the certified status of the 241 Smelters, 232 of these entities were conformant to a responsible mineral sourcing validation program (i.e. the RMAP Conformant Smelters & Refiners list, the LBMA Good Delivery List, or the RJC Chain-of-Custody Certification Program). According to the RMAP Active Smelters & Refiners list, another two Smelters are undergoing the RMAP assessment (referred to as “Active” in the table below). Of the remaining seven smelters, three were under audit suspension since they are located in the Russian Federation and four were compliant as of December 31, 2022 but did not complete the re-audit on time and became non conformant in early 2023. Based on a third-party assessment and RCOI scoping of these seven smelters, we have no reason to believe they are sourcing from the Covered Countries, for the reporting period. Therefore, the total number of smelters identified as “conformant”, “active” or not sourcing from the Covered Countries amounts to 241 (100%).
Table 2 below illustrates our progress with Smelters status compared to reporting year 2021.
Table 2: Progress in Smelters’ Status
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2021 | 2022 |
| Number | % of Total | Number | % of Total |
| Smelters listed as “Conformant” by 3rd party audit program | 234 | 92.5% | 232 | 96.3% |
| Smelters listed as “Active” by 3rd party audit program | 10 | 3.9% | 2 | 0.8% |
| Smelters confirmed by an independent 3rd party assessment to not be sourcing from the Covered Countries | 9 | 3.6% | 7 | 2.9% |
| Total | 253 | 100% | 241 | 100% |
Table 3 further illustrates our results for each 3TG metal by setting forth the number and percentage of Smelters’ facilities that were either participating in a third-party validation program or confirmed by an independent third party to not be sourcing from the Covered Countries as of March 24, 2023.
Table 3: 2022 Smelters Participating in Third-Party Audit Programs or confirmed by an independent Third Party to not be sourcing from the Covered Countries, by Metal
| | | | | |
| Metal | Smelters participating in third-party audit programs or confirmed by an independent third party to not be sourcing from the Covered Countries |
| Tantalum | 34 of 34 (100%) |
| Tin | 64 of 64 (100%) |
| Tungsten | 42 of 42 (100%) |
| Gold | 101 of 101 (100%) |
As result of our due diligence activities summarized above, we determined the following as of March 24, 2023:
•All 241 Smelters identified by our In-Scope Suppliers are either conformant to a third-party responsible minerals sourcing audit program, have begun participating in such a program, or have been confirmed by an independent third party to not be sourcing from the Covered Countries, for the Reporting Period.
•We have no reason to believe that any of the 241 Smelters directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries.
Appendix A provides the complete list of 241 Smelters identified in Logitech’s supply chain which processed 3TG during the Reporting Period. Appendix A lists each Smelter by metal, smelter name, and location country. Based on the information provided by Logitech’s suppliers, Smelters, as well as from third-party audit programs, Logitech believes that the 3TG contained in its products originated from the countries listed in Appendix B, as well as from recycled and scrap sources.
Efforts to Determine the Conflict Minerals’ Mine or Location of Origin
Through our participation in RMI, the OECD implementation programs, and requesting our suppliers to complete the CMRT, we have determined that seeking information about 3TG Smelters in our supply chain represents the most reasonable effort we can make to determine the mine or location of origin of the 3TG in our supply chain, as outlined in Section Four above (“Due Diligence Measures”).
SECTION SIX: STEPS TO BE TAKEN TO MITIGATE RISK
Logitech currently intends to undertake the following steps, during the next compliance period, with the intention of further mitigating risks associated with supply chain sourcing and conflict minerals:
•Require that 3TG sourcing Smelters remain at 100% participating in the third-party audit programs.
◦Retain the same approach in existing suppliers through due diligence management
◦Request action from our direct suppliers to have the Smelters that were removed from the RMAP Conformant list to either re-apply and re-obtain their “Conformant” status or remove them from the supply chain; and
◦Early engagement with new suppliers to address 3TG sourcing with a consistent approach
•Continue our training, auditing, engagement and other due diligence activities with suppliers to:
◦Require all In-Scope Suppliers understand and fully comply with our established Responsible Sourcing of Minerals Policy and associated requirements;
◦Maintain oversight of our supply chain and identify the source of any 3TG;
◦Strengthen internal partnerships to identify raw material risk at an early product development stage;
◦Confirm the status of identified Smelters through independent Responsible Minerals Smelter validation programs; and
◦Encourage Smelters to participate in third-party audit programs such as the RMI Responsible Minerals Assurance Process or equivalent programs.
•Continue our support of RMI to encourage further adoption and improvement of relevant good practices, programs, tools and standards.
•Develop due diligence plans showing the actions the supplier will take to engage, request and encourage Smelters that are not yet engaged in RMAP or an equivalent certification program, and also raise awareness of the Smelters about the risk of non-conformance and take proactive action to address deficiencies and to obtain evidence of compliant responsible minerals status.
