Section 1 - Conflict Mineral Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
Conflict Minerals Disclosure
For purposes of this Form SD, “Conflict Minerals” means columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives tantalum, tin and tungsten. In 2018, Globus Medical sold certain medical devices that contained Conflict Minerals. In accordance with the rules promulgated pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, pursuant to which the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Form SD, we conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry with respect to those Conflict Minerals that were contained in the medical devices that we sold in 2018 and were not outside of the supply chain prior to January 31, 2013. Third party suppliers primarily manufactured those medical devices for us. During 2018, we also manufactured a significant portion of our implant products at our facility in Eagleville, Pennsylvania. As part of our inquiry, we asked all third party suppliers of our medical devices containing Conflict Minerals to identify the source of those Conflict Minerals. We also performed the same inquiry of our raw materials vendors for our in-house manufactured products containing Conflict Minerals. This information included the name of the smelters that processed the Conflict Minerals that were not outside of the supply chain prior to January 31, 2013. Our inquiries noted that each of these smelters is on the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process Conformant Smelters and Refiners list maintained by the Responsible Minerals Initiative.
Conclusion
Based on our reasonable country of origin inquiry, we have no reason to believe that any Conflict Minerals contained in medical devices manufactured for us or by us in 2018 originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.
This Conflict Minerals Disclosure is also available on our website at http://www.globusmedical.com/investors/conflict-minerals-disclosure/.
