Business Overview and Applicability of Conflict Minerals Rule

We design, develop, manufacture and distribute performance‑driven golf products. Our products include golf balls, golf clubs, wedges and putters, golf shoes, golf gloves, golf gear and golf outerwear and apparel. Tin or tungsten are contained in some of the products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture. Where tin or tungsten are present in our products, they generally constitute a small portion of the materials content of the products. For a further discussion of our products, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. The information contained in our Form 10-K is not incorporated by reference into this Conflict Minerals Report or our Form SD and should not be considered part of this Conflict Minerals Report or the Form SD.

We do not directly source tin or tungsten from mines or smelters and believe that we are in most cases many levels removed from these market participants. However, through the efforts described in this Conflict Minerals Report, and as part of our reasonable country of origin inquiry and due diligence processes, we seek to ensure that our suppliers source responsibly. Specifically, we endeavor in good faith to determine if any of the tin or tungsten necessary to the functionality or production of the products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture originated in a Covered Country and, if so, whether it directly or indirectly financed or benefited an armed group.

Based on our internal product scoping, we do not believe that any of our products contain tantalum or gold.

Our Conflict Minerals Policy

Acushnet is committed to conducting business ethically and responsibly, and is opposed to human rights abuses such as are occurring in the DRC. As part of our dedication to operating ethically, Acushnet is committed to the responsible sourcing of materials for its products. We also take seriously our compliance obligations under the Conflict Minerals Rule. As such, we have adopted and communicated to our suppliers and the public a company conflict minerals policy (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”) regarding the use of 3TG in our products.

The Conflict Minerals Policy indicates that we expect our suppliers to:

1. Source 3TG only from sources that do not directly or indirectly benefit or finance armed groups, whether in the Covered Countries or other parts of the world;

2. Where possible, source 3TG from smelters and refiners that are validated as being “conflict free” or conformant with a third-party audit protocol addressing responsible sourcing;

3. Put in place procedures for the traceability of 3TG;

4. Cooperate with our 3TG due diligence process, which includes providing us, from time to time, with written certifications and other information concerning the origin of 3TG included in products and/or components supplied to Acushnet;

5. Maintain reviewable business records supporting the source of 3TG;

6. Adopt policies and procedures with respect to 3TG consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy and the practices set forth therein and the OECD Guidance (as defined below), including the adoption of a risk mitigation strategy to respond to identified risks in the supply chain, and communicate such policies and procedures to their personnel and direct and indirect suppliers; and

7. Require their direct and indirect suppliers to adopt policies and procedures that are consistent with our Conflict Minerals Policy.

The Conflict Minerals Policy indicates that suppliers who do not comply with our expectations will be reviewed and evaluated accordingly for future business and sourcing decisions.

We do not support embargos of 3TG from the Covered Countries and encourage our suppliers to continue to source from responsible sources in those countries.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry Information

As required by the Conflict Minerals Rule, for 2018, we conducted a “reasonable country of origin inquiry” (“RCOI”). We designed our RCOI in good faith to determine the origin of the 3TG that are necessary to the functionality or production of products that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture. We determined which of our products were potentially in-scope for purposes of the Conflict Minerals Rule through a review of our product categories, a review of the materials content of products, inquiries regarding the degree of influence we exercised over the manufacturing process of third-party manufactured products and other information known to us.

Our outreach included 44 suppliers (the “Suppliers”). The results of our RCOI are discussed on Annex A to this Conflict Minerals Report. For our RCOI, to the extent applicable, we utilized the same processes and procedures as for our due diligence, in particular Steps 1 and 2 of the OECD Guidance design framework, which are described below in this Conflict Minerals Report.

As indicated on Annex A, the smelters identified to us by the Suppliers were listed as Conformant (as defined below) by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (the “RMI”).

Based on the results of our RCOI, we conducted due diligence for 2018. These due diligence efforts are discussed below.

Due Diligence Measures

Design Framework

We have designed our due diligence measures relating to 3TG to conform with, in all material respects, the criteria set forth in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, including the Supplement on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and the Supplement on Gold (Third Edition) (collectively, the “OECD Guidance”).

Selected Elements of Design Framework and Due Diligence Program Execution

The OECD Guidance has established a five-step framework for due diligence as a basis for responsible global supply chain management of minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas. Selected elements of our due diligence program are discussed below. The headings below conform to the headings used in the OECD Guidance for each of the five steps.

1. OECD Guidance Step One: “Establish strong company management systems”

a. We have a team of senior staff that is responsible for our 3TG compliance program. Leadership of the compliance program resides with our Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary. The following functional areas are represented on the working group: Legal, Product Development and Operations. Selected internal personnel have been educated on the Conflict Minerals Rule. In addition, we utilize specialist outside counsel to advise us in connection with selected aspects of our Conflict Minerals Rule compliance.

3

b. We have communicated our Conflict Minerals Policy internally and externally to suppliers, in each case in writing. The Conflict Minerals Policy is available on our website at www.acushnetholdingscorp.com/Corporate-Policies.

c. We use the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “CMRT”) developed by the RMI to identify smelters and refiners in our supply chain.

d. We maintain business records relating to 3TG due diligence, including records of due diligence processes, findings and resulting decisions, on a computerized database. This information is retained for at least five years.

e. We have a mechanism for employees, suppliers and other interested parties to report violations of our Conflict Minerals Policy or other policy violations and issues, either by calling 1-855-219-7326 or by submitting violations on www.acushnetcompliance.com.

2. OECD Guidance Step Two: “Identify and assess risk in the supply chain”

a. We requested by email that the Suppliers provide us with information, through the completion of a CMRT, concerning the usage and source of 3TG in the products that we identified as potentially being in-scope, as well as information concerning the Suppliers’ related compliance efforts. We followed up by email or phone with all Suppliers that did not respond to the request within a specified time frame. If a Supplier was non-responsive, an escalation process was initiated pursuant to which our personnel contacted the Supplier. All of the Suppliers responded to our request to submit a CMRT.

b. We reviewed the responses received from the Suppliers. To the extent that a completed CMRT identified a smelter, we reviewed that information against the list of Conformant smelters published in connection with the RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (the “RMAP”).

3. OECD Guidance Step Three: “Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks”

a. The findings of our supply chain risk assessment have been reported to our Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary.

b. Our risk mitigation strategy allows for a flexible response that is commensurate with the risks identified.

4. OECD Guidance Step Four: “Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at identified points in the supply chain”

In connection with our due diligence, we utilized and relied on information made available by the RMI concerning independent third-party audits of smelters to assess smelter due diligence and to determine whether smelters are Conformant.

5. OECD Guidance Step Five: “Report on supply chain due diligence”

We file a Form SD and a Conflict Minerals Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission and make these filings available on our website.

Product and Smelter and Refiner Information

Our in-scope products for 2018 consisted of selected golf apparel, golf gear, golf clubs and golf shoes.

In connection with our RCOI or due diligence, as applicable, the Suppliers identified to us the smelters listed on Appendix A as having processed the necessary tin or tungsten contained in our in-scope products for 2018. Due to our position in the supply chain, we rely on our suppliers for accurate smelter information. Our due diligence measures cannot provide absolute certainty regarding the source and chain of custody of the tin or tungsten contained in our products.

We endeavored to determine the mine or location of origin of the tin and tungsten contained in our in-scope products by requesting that the Suppliers provide us with a completed CMRT and through the other measures described in this Conflict Minerals Report.

For 2018, none of our in-scope products were determined by us to support conflict (i.e., to contain necessary 3TG that directly or indirectly financed or benefitted an armed group in a Covered Country). However, we did not conclude that any of our in-scope products were “DRC conflict free.”

Future Risk Mitigation Efforts

We intend to take the following additional steps in 2019 to mitigate the risk that our necessary 3TG benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:

1. Further distribute the Conflict Minerals Policy to relevant Suppliers.

2. Engage with Suppliers to encourage them to provide full and comprehensive information in their responses for 2019.

3. Monitor and encourage the continuing development and progress of traceability measures at Suppliers that indicated for 2018 that the source of 3TG was unknown or undeterminable.

4. Communicate our sourcing expectations to new potentially in-scope suppliers, including through the dissemination of the Conflict Minerals Policy to them. In addition, as new in-scope suppliers are added, work with these suppliers to ensure that they understand the requirements of the Conflict Minerals Rule and the OECD Guidance.

5. Encourage our suppliers to source responsibly, particularly when sourcing from the Covered Countries.

All of the foregoing steps are in addition to the steps that we took in respect of 2018, which we intend to continue to take in respect of 2019 to the extent applicable.

(1) We note the following in connection with the information contained in the foregoing table:

(a) The smelters and refiners listed in the table were identified by the Suppliers as being part of our 2018 supply chain, through their submission of product level CMRTs. Some of the Suppliers may have reported to us smelters and refiners that were not in our supply chain due to over-inclusiveness in the information received from their suppliers or for other reasons. In addition, the smelters and refiners reflected above may not be all of the smelters and refiners in our 2018 supply chain, since: (i) we have not included smelter and refiner information that the Suppliers reported to us at a “company level,” meaning that they reported to us the 3TG contained in all of their products, not just the products that they sold to us, or that was reported to us at a “user defined” level that was broader than the products that we purchased from the Supplier; and (ii) many of the Suppliers were unable to identify all of the smelters and refiners used to process the necessary 3TG content contained in our in-scope products.

(b) The table only includes entities that were listed as smelters or refiners by the RMI as of April 15, 2019. Smelter or refiner status reflected in the table is based solely on information made publicly available by the RMI, without independent verification by us.

(c) Smelter or refiner status information in the table is as of April 15, 2019.

(d) “Conformant” means that a smelter or refiner was listed as conformant with the RMAP’s assessment protocols. Smelters and refiners listed as “re-audit in progress” are still considered to be conformant. Included smelters and refiners were not necessarily Conformant for all or part of 2018 and may not continue to be Conformant for any future period.

Country of Origin Information

The countries of origin of the 3TG processed by the Conformant smelters and refiners listed above may have included the countries listed below, as well as other countries. We are unable to determine the specific countries of origin of the 3TG in our products. The possible countries of origin below are categorized by risk level.

L1 - Countries that are not identified as conflict regions or plausible areas of smuggling or export from the Covered Countries: Australia, Bolivia, Brazil, China, Colombia, Guinea, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nigeria, Peru, Portugal, Russian Federation, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, United States of America and Venezuela.

L3 - The Covered Countries: Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda.

DRC - The Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Some of the listed smelters and refiners may have processed 3TG originating solely from recycled or scrap sources and others may have processed both recycled and scrap content and newly mined content from one or more of the regions indicated above.
