Introduction

Johnson Outdoors Inc. (“JOI,” “we,” “us,” “our”) is a publicly traded U.S. company that recognizes itself as an issuer as defined under section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, referred to in this report as “Dodd-Frank.”  As an issuer under Dodd-Frank, JOI has designed, implemented, executed, and managed its conflict minerals plan for compliance with Dodd-Frank. Elements, efforts, results, and conclusions of this compliance effort are outlined in this Conflict Minerals Report (CMR) as required by the legislation. All terms and definitions in this conflict minerals report are as defined by the final rules promulgated under Dodd-Frank and 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.

JOI’s goal is to support the Conflict Free Smelter Program (CFSP) and, with the cooperation of its suppliers, JOI has undertaken a risk assessment of smelters and refiners (hereafter referred to collectively as smelters) of tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG) and, to the best of its abilities, attempted to identify the mines of origin of 3TG and implement a holistic approach to support a clean minerals trade in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and adjoining countries (covered countries, or CC’s), while maintaining economic relationships with conflict free smelters in the countries covered under this legislation. This report may be found on our website at: http://investor.johnsonoutdoors.com/governance.cfm.   This report covers all JOI products at a company level and includes all covered products in all JOI businesses.
 
JOI’s Conflict Minerals Program

For Reporting Year 2014 (RY2014), JOI established strong management systems and carried out due diligence procedures to evaluate the extraction and trade of mineral ores containing 3TG, also referred to as conflict minerals (CM).   JOI created a supply chain transparency system to identify its 3TG smelters relating to the conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of products manufactured by JOI, or contracted to be manufactured by JOI.

JOI’s conflict minerals program includes:
Maintenance of a publicly available conflict minerals policy
Maintenance of an organization-wide process that ensures 100% of JOI suppliers are made aware of JOI’s policy and standards regarding conflict minerals, and obligations to comply with our conflict minerals policy
Maintenance of internal protocols to ensure that conflict minerals supply-chain due diligence and obligations are clearly presented and understood by JOI employees who have knowledge of the SEC disclosure requirements regarding conflict minerals
Annual implementation of a supply chain communication plan that requests use of the CFSP’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) in order to gather, survey, and evaluate suppliers and sources of 3TG, and identify 3TG smelters in our supply chain
Collection of conflict minerals information to achieve control and transparency over conflict minerals identified in our supply chain and identify any risk that our products may contain conflict minerals that could finance or benefit armed groups in covered countries
Survey and analysis of suppliers and sources of 3TG, and identification of 3TG smelters in order to identify the locations of country of origin and mines of these ores
 
2

Reliance on the CFSP and other industry approved mechanisms to validate smelter supply chain due diligence
Public disclosure and reporting of the results of our due diligence
Maintenance of all records relating to our due diligence efforts for a minimum of five years
Assessment and performance of risk mitigation efforts throughout our supply chain
Maintenance of an improvement plan based on previous reporting years and lessons learned
Maintenance of a mechanism that allows JOI, its suppliers, and concerned parties to communicate any concerns regarding our conflict minerals program

Due Diligence

Design of due diligence:

Design and implementation of JOI’s conflict minerals program conforms to the “Five Step Framework for Risk-Based Due Diligence in the Mineral Supply Chain” (Annex I) and the “Model Supply Chain Policy for a Responsible Global Supply Chain of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas” (Annex II) included in 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 (Second Edition). The due diligence steps and brief description performed are below.

Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
Step 2: Identify and assess risk in the supply chain
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain
Step 5: Report on supply chain due diligence

Due diligence performed:

Due diligence measures JOI performed regarding the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals identified in our supply chain and regarding 3TG smelters identified in our supply chain include, but are not limited to, the steps below as mapped to the OECD 5 Step Framework:
 
OECD Steps:
JOI Due Diligence Measures Performed:
Step 1:
Establish strong company management systems.
 
 
Assign and implement multi-disciplinary responsibilities to internal JOI business group leaders, support staff, and third-party consultant to carry out all elements of JOI’s conflict minerals program.
Maintain a detailed project plan and hold bi-monthly meetings for JOI employees who have knowledge of the SEC disclosure requirements for conflict minerals and publish this project plan on JOI’s intranet.
 
Maintaining records in a secure computerized database repository for a minimum of five years.
Step 2:
Identify and assess risk in the supply chain.
Evaluate 100% of JOI suppliers across all business groups as being in or out of scope of conflict minerals.
Assess risk in our supply chain according to commodity class and supplier status.
 
3

 
Perform multi-tiered survey of 100% of JOI in-scope conflict minerals suppliers by requesting current, complete, and accurate CMRTs in order to identify 3TG smelters in the supply chain and set expectations for compliance.
 
Redistribute copies of our conflict minerals policy and basic standards to all suppliers, regardless of commodity class.
 
Analyze smelter information from suppliers with the information available from CFSP, the London Market Bullion Association (LBMA), the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), and other accredited industry mechanisms.
 
Analyze smelter information from suppliers via other sources, including but not limited to information from: the United States Department of Commerce; United Nations publications; iTSCi (ITRI Tin Supply Chain Initiative); extensive internet research including smelter websites and company profiles; non-governmental organization (NGO) websites; and in-region sourcing programs.
  Identify smelters of 3TG that appear to have facilities, or likelihood of facilities, in covered countries.
 
Report identified and/or potential supply chain risks to senior management.
Step 3:
Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks.
  
Audit distribution of our conflict minerals policy to evaluate and ensure supplier understanding, acknowledgment, and adherence to this policy and our basic standards.
Perform internal multi-tiered analysis of our suppliers’ CMRTs including: completeness; reasonable response based on commodity class and scope; and consistency with previous reporting year information.
Engage JOI business group leaders, support staff, and third-party consultant in multi-tiered follow ups and escalations with suppliers in an effort to obtain higher quantity and quality of smelter information, particularly from suppliers of electrical and electronic equipment.
 
Use JOI level of influence to encourage suppliers to source from CFSP audited and compliant smelters.
 
Encourage identified smelters to participate in the CFSP and obtain CFSP certification if they have not already done so.
 
Continue to improve on efficiencies and effectiveness of our conflict minerals program to close gaps and mitigate risks for Reporting Year 2015.
Step 4:
Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain.
  
Identify smelters in covered countries that are conflict free, or participating in a conflict free program as defined by CFSP.
Rely on the due diligence performed by CFSP, LBMA and RJC regarding smelter conflict free status.
Directly contact smelters in the form of reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) regarding chain of custody of conflict minerals and evidence of due diligence for whom we were unable to confirm conflict free status via the sources above.
Step 5:
Report on supply chain due diligence.
In compliance with Dodd-Frank and the SEC Final Rule, on or before June 1st 2015, JOI will file Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report (this report) with the SEC, as well as publish this information on its website.

Results of Due Diligence:

JOI identified 290 unique smelters in its supply chain in RY2014. These are associated with the following 3TG as follows:
Gold: 114
Tantalum: 42
Tin: 82
Tungsten: 52

Out of these 290 smelters, JOI has identified 38 unique smelters that we have reason to believe source from the DRC and/or surrounding countries. (Of these 38 smelters, 18 source from both the DRC and surrounding countries - total presence in the DRC and surrounding countries combined is 56 smelters.)  JOI exercised due diligence on the conflict mineral source and chain of custody for these smelters who appear to have presence in either or the DRC and/or surrounding countries.

Smelter location, conflict free (CF) status, and facility location are summarized in the table below. The conflict free status is based on research concluded by April 10th, 2015 and does not reflect any subsequent changes in this status.  Details regarding specific smelter names, countries, and facility locations of 3TG, in and out of covered countries, may be shared upon request.

Summary:
Regarding all smelters located in DRC and surrounding countries:

For gold: smelters appear to be 100% CF
For tantalum: smelters appear to be 96% CF
For tin: smelters appears to be 77% CF
For tungsten: smelters appear to be 90% CF

Ø 87% of smelters appear to be CF in the DRC (26 out of 30)
Ø 96% of smelters appear to be CF in surrounding countries (25 out of 26)

Conclusion:

The conflict free status of the 38 smelters listed as a having a presence in the DRC and/or covered countries is as follows:

23 (60%) are CFSP CF Certified
2 (5%) are CFSP Active
5 (13%) are Progressing Toward CFSP Certification
4 (11%) are believed to be CF due to LBMA accreditation and/or website statement
4 (11%) are unknown CF status, as no information was available from public sources and the smelters did not respond to the RCOIs sent

Ø RY2014 conflict free status is 89.5%
Ø RY2014 smelters that are in covered countries that are participating in a CFSP program is 79%

Improvement:

Reporting Year 2013 (RY2013) Information:
JOI’s supply chain and due diligence efforts in RY2013 identified 17 smelters with facilities believed to be in covered countries.  Of the 17 smelters:
11 (64%) were CFSP CF Certified
 
6

2 (12%) were CFSP Active
1 (6%) were Progressing Toward CFSP Certification
2 (12%) were believed to be CF due to the LBMA accreditation and/or website statement
1 (6%) was unknown CF status, as no information was available from public sources and the smelter did not respond to the RCOIs sent

Ø RY2013 conflict free status was 94%
Ø RY2013 smelters that were identified as being in covered countries that were participating in a CFSP program was 82%

Although the conflict free status was 94% for RY2013 and 82% of identified smelters in covered countries participated in CFSP programs, these numbers reflect 17 smelters as identified to be in covered countries versus 38 as identified in RY2014.

The change from RY2013 to RY2014 reflects a 124% improvement rate in our due diligence process and identification of the number of smelters we were able to identify as sourcing 3TG from covered countries.
 
Determination

Based on the information provided by JOI in-scope suppliers and the due diligence that JOI performed to identify smelters of 3TG in covered countries, including conducting smelter direct RCOIs, JOI believes that certain smelters in its supply chain either do have or may have facilities that source 3T from covered countries. Based on these due diligence efforts, JOI does not have sufficient information to conclusively confirm that 100% of these smelters are conflict free at the time of this report or that all of the conflict minerals sourced from them are exclusively from recycled or scrap sources. Regarding gold, JOI can reasonably conclude after its due diligence efforts that 100% of the gold in its supply chain is sourced from smelters that are either conflict free or that the gold is from recycled or scrap sources.
 
Planned Risk Mitigation and Future Due Diligence Measures

Steps that JOI has taken, or will take, since the end of RY2014 to improve due diligence and mitigate the risk that any conflict minerals identified in our supply chain benefit any armed groups, and to support a clean and conflict-free minerals trade in the DRC and covered countries include:

Leverage multi-tiered influence from JOI internal and external resources in order to compel its in-scope suppliers to deliver more current, accurate, timely, and complete information about their smelters of conflict minerals, and increase both response level and quality of responses
Leverage multi-tiered influence from JOI internal and external resources to increase response level from in-scope distributors regarding JOI supply chain procedures and increase their participation in supply chain transparency of conflict minerals
Increase pressure, specifically on suppliers of electrical and electronic equipment, to provide current, correct, and more comprehensive smelter information
 
7

Repeat and enhance our pro-active supplier communication plan to further assist all suppliers regarding JOI’s need for correct and complete conflict minerals information to satisfy the SEC requirements
Use our level of influence to encourage all suppliers to source from smelters validated as compliant to a Conflict Free Sourcing protocol using the Conflict Free Sourcing Compliant Smelter List as published by the EICC or other accredited independent validation scheme or institutional mechanism, to source away from un-validated conflict-free smelters and refiners, and to identify the sources of conflict minerals in their supply chains
Instruct suppliers to advise JOI if they have reason to believe that any person or entity in their supply chain is directly or indirectly financing or benefiting armed groups in the covered countries and provide a discrete mechanism to do so
Through smelter RCOIs, pressure smelters directly to become verified as having conflict-free sourcing practices and encourage participation in the CFSP audit process

Conclusion

The information presented in this CMR is based on due diligence efforts performed in good faith by JOI and its suppliers. These conclusions and determinations are based on the information available at the time the supplier and smelter RCOIs were made, results analyzed, and metrics recorded. Errors or omissions may be inherent in these results due to errors or omissions in supplier and smelter RCOIs, and the definition of a smelter at the time of the research.
 
Any information found to be contradictory to this CMR may be communicated to JOI through our early warning risk-awareness conflict minerals grievance mechanism. This open reporting mechanism allows JOI to receive any additional relevant information that may not have been uncovered through our due diligence process in supply chain transparency as it relates to conflict minerals.
