1. Introduction

This Conflict Minerals Report has been prepared by The Children’s Place, Inc. and its subsidiaries (herein referred to as “The Children’s Place,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) pursuant to Rule 13p-1 (the “Rule”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period from January 1 through December 31, 2024 (the “Reporting Period”).

The Children’s Place is the largest pure-play children’s specialty retailer in North America with an omni-channel portfolio of brands. The Company designs, contracts to manufacture, and sells fashionable, high-quality apparel, accessories and footwear predominantly at value prices, primarily under the proprietary brands: “The Children’s Place”, “Gymboree”, “Sugar & Jade”, and “PJ Place”. As of February 1, 2025, the Company’s global retail and wholesale network includes two digital storefronts, 495 stores in North America, wholesale marketplaces, 190 international points of distribution in 13 countries through its six franchise partners, and social media channels on Instagram, Facebook, X, formerly known as Twitter, YouTube and Pinterest. The Company’s digital storefronts are at www.childrensplace.com and www.gymboree.com, where its customers are able to shop online for the same merchandise available in its physical stores, but also certain exclusive merchandise only available on the e-commerce sites.

The Rule requires companies to disclose their use of conflict minerals (as defined below) if those minerals are “necessary to the functionality or production of a product” manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by those companies. The conflict minerals covered by the Rule are tantalum, tin, gold, tungsten (“3TG”) or any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, i.e., any of Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).

The Company has determined that it contracts to manufacture certain products for which one or more of the 3TG metals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. Accordingly, the Company conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (or “RCOI”) and due diligence as required by the Rule.

2. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

The Company is far removed from the sources of ore from which minerals are produced, and the smelters or refineries (“SORs”) that process those ores. The efforts undertaken to identify the country(ies) of origin of those ores reflect the Company’s circumstances and position in the supply chain. The Company must rely on information obtained from direct suppliers, who in turn, must obtain information from upstream suppliers, on the origin of the 3TG used in the products manufactured for the Company. Such information may be inaccurate or incomplete.

The Company has a conflict minerals team (or “CMT”) that manages the implementation and progress of its RCOI and due diligence efforts. The team is composed of representatives from the Company’s legal and global sourcing departments, as well as a conflict minerals third-party service provider (the “CMT Service Provider”).

As part of the Company’s RCOI process, the Company developed a risk-based approach that focused on direct suppliers of finished products, as well as suppliers that are reasonably likely to supply components or trims containing one or more of the 3TG metals (together, the “In-Scope Suppliers”) which could have originated from the Covered Countries.

In-Scope Suppliers were asked to complete the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”). Only CMRT’s version 4.0 or higher were accepted. The Company believes that the CMRT is generally regarded as the most common reporting tool for conflict minerals content and sourcing information worldwide, developed by several of the world’s leading consumer electronics brands. As such, the Company believes the process was reasonably designed and performed in good faith.

The CMRT includes questions regarding the presence and sourcing of 3TG used in the products supplied to the Company, the In-Scope Supplier’s conflict minerals policy, due diligence process, and information about its supply chain, including the names and locations of SORs.

The CMRT responses were evaluated for plausibility, consistency, and gaps. Based on the In-Scope Supplier’s response, additional follow-up was performed, as necessary.

The response rate among In-Scope Suppliers was 57%.

Of those responding In-Scope Suppliers, 1% reported one or more of the 3TG metals as necessary to the functionality or production of the products they manufactured for the Company. Further due diligence (as described below) was undertaken to ascertain the chain and custody of the identified 3TG metals.

3. Due Diligence

A. Design of Due Diligence

The Company’s due diligence measures were designed to conform, in all material respects, with the due diligence framework presented by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in the publication OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Second Edition, OECD Publishing (OECD Guidance) and related Supplements on Tin, Tantalum, and Tungsten and on Gold.

B. Due Diligence Performed

The Company performed its due diligence as follows:

Step 1: Establish a Strong Company Management System

Policies and Procedures

The Company communicated its conflict minerals policy to all In-Scope Suppliers. In addition, the Company’s terms and conditions contain provisions regarding conflict minerals compliance. In-Scope Suppliers are required to comply with the conflict minerals policy and the terms and conditions.

Internal Team

As mentioned above, the Company has a conflict minerals team that manages the implementation and progress of its RCOI and due diligence efforts.

Control Systems

The Company has in place the following controls: (i) a company-wide business code of conduct that outlines expected behaviors for all Company associates, and (ii) a vendor code of conduct that outlines expected behavior and working conditions for vendors and suppliers.

Maintain Records

The Company has a records retention policy that provides that relevant materials must be preserved for appropriate periods.

Supplier Engagement

The Company utilized members of its global sourcing team and the CMT Service Provider to engage with In-Scope Suppliers on the exchange of supply chain and conflict minerals related information.

Step 2: Identify and Assess Risks in the Supply Chain

For those In-Scope Suppliers who identified the use of one or more 3TG metals in products supplied to the Company, further investigation was performed to determine the source and chain-of-custody of the 3TG, and specifically, whether the SOR of the 3TG is known or thought to be sourcing from the Covered Countries.

The following internationally accepted audit standards were relied on to determine which SORs are considered “DRC Conflict Free”: the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP), the London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery Program (“LBMA”) and the Responsible Jewellery Council Chain-of-Custody Certification (“RJC”).

If the SOR is not certified by an internationally-recognized scheme, additional research (internet, industry and government associations) and outreach (email and telephone) with the SOR was performed to confirm the data provided in the CMRT and to gain more information about their sourcing practices, including countries of origin and transfer, and whether there were any internal due diligence procedures in place or other processes the SORs took to track the chain-of-custody on the source of its mineral ores.

3 

Step 3: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Risks

The CMT received regular updates on the RCOI and due diligence efforts. Findings were reported to senior management.

Where the Company determines an In-Scope Supplier is using conflict minerals in products manufactured for the Company, the Company will work with the In-Scope Supplier to ensure the minerals are sourced from registered conflict free smelters or the minerals are eliminated from use. During the Reporting Period, there were no instances that required the Company to implement risk mitigation efforts, temporarily suspend trade or disengage with a supplier for sourcing and using conflict minerals in products manufactured for the Company.

Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner’s due diligence at identified points in the supply chain

The Company does not have a direct relationship with SORs and therefore does not perform or direct audits of these entities.

Step 5: Reports on Supply Chain Due Diligence

This Conflict Minerals Report constitutes the Company’s annual report on its conflict minerals due diligence. The Report is available at http://corporate.childrensplace.com in the “Corporate Overview” section under the “Investor Relations” tab and in the section entitled “Financial Info – SEC Filings.”

C. Due Diligence Findings

Given the Company’s position in the supply chain and the CMRT responses from In-Scope Suppliers, the Company is unable to determine whether the 3TG present in its products originated in the Covered Countries or financed or benefited armed groups in those countries.

Product Description

The products at issue are children’s apparel, accessories and footwear.

Processing Facilities

Based on the CMRT responses from In-Scope Suppliers, the attached Appendix 1 lists the SORs that may have processed the 3TG used in products manufactured for the Company.

Country of Origin

The following is a list of the countries of origin of the 3TG processed by the SORs identified in the attached Appendix 1:

· Angola*, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria;

· Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Burundi*;

· Cambodia, Canada, Central African Republic*, Chile, China, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Cote D’Ivoire, Czechia;

· Djibouti;

*All smelters that are known to source 3TG from Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia are certified conflict free by one or a combination of RMAP, RJC, and LBMA.

Independent Private Sector Audit

For the Reporting Period, the company is not required to obtain an independent private sector audit of the Conflict Minerals Report.

4. Steps to Improve Due Diligence

The Company continues to take the following steps to improve due diligence processes in place, namely:

· Continue engagement with In-Scope Suppliers and direct them to information and training resources in order to improve the content of the In-Scope Suppliers CMRT responses;

· Continue to require In-Scope Suppliers not to use any conflict minerals in products manufactured for the Company; and

· Work with In-Scope Suppliers, if found to be providing the Company with components or materials containing minerals from sources that support conflict in the Covered Countries, to establish an alternative source of minerals that does not support such conflict.
