Cirrus Logic, Inc.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Year Ended December 31, 2019

I.Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) has been prepared by Cirrus Logic, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to Rule 13p-1 and Form SD (the “Rule”), which were promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Report covers the reporting period January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted the Rule to implement the reporting and disclosure requirements related to “conflict minerals” as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.

The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose manufactured products contain certain specified materials that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. The specified materials, which are collectively referred to as the “Conflict Minerals,” are defined by the SEC as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (the “3TG” minerals).

According to the Rule, if a registrant has reason to believe that any of the 3TG minerals in their supply chain may have originated in the Covered Countries, or if the registrant is unable to determine that the 3TG minerals either did not originate in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources, then the issuer must exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG minerals. The “Covered Countries” for the purposes of the Rule and this Report 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. The registrant must annually submit a report, a Conflict Minerals Report (the “CMR”), to the SEC that includes a description of those due diligence measures.

This Report has been prepared by management of the Company, and includes the activities of all majority-owned subsidiaries and entities that are required to be consolidated. The Company did not subject this Report to an independent private sector audit since we do not believe such an audit was required based on the guidance provided by the SEC in its “Statement of the Effect of the Recent Court of Appeals Decision on the Conflict Minerals Rule” dated April 29, 2014.

Company Overview
The Company is a leader in low-power, high-precision mixed-signal processing solutions that create innovative user experiences for the world’s top mobile and consumer applications.

Description of the Company’s Products Covered by this Report
This Report relates to products: (i) for which 3TG minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of that product; (ii) that were manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the Company; and (iii) for which the manufacture was completed during calendar year 2019. For purposes of this Report, we have determined the following products include 3TG minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products: (1) integrated circuits and (2) development and evaluation boards (“Boards”) sold by the Company (collectively, the “Covered Products”).

II.Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
The Company has conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) regarding the 3TG minerals. This RCOI was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the 3TG minerals originated in the Covered Countries and whether any of the 3TG minerals may be from recycled or scrap sources. To conduct the RCOI, we requested our suppliers to report the origin of the 3TG minerals used in the manufacture of our products. Specifically, suppliers were expected to utilize the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) to report on the use of 3TG minerals used in the manufacture of our products.

Annex I includes a summary of the country of origin information collected as a result of our RCOI. The data on which we relied for certain statements in this report was obtained through our membership in the RMI, using the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry report for member “CRUS.”

III.Due Diligence Design and Performance
1.Due Diligence Design:
Our due diligence measures have been designed to conform with the framework provided by 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 (the “OECD Guidance”).

In conjunction with its due diligence process, the Company has adopted a policy relating to 3TG minerals (the “Conflict Minerals Policy”), incorporating the standards set forth in the OECD Guidance. The Conflict Minerals Policy states that, to promote stability and security, we expect our suppliers to source materials from environmentally and socially responsible supply chains; we forbid our suppliers from placing an outright ban on procuring minerals from the Covered Countries. In addition, the Conflict Minerals Policy states that our suppliers must report at least annually the origin of the 3TG minerals by identifying smelters or refiners (“SORs”) used in the manufacture of our products. As outlined in the OECD Guidance, we also participate in groups and forums focused on responsible sourcing of the 3TG minerals, including the Responsible Business Alliance (“RBA”) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (“GeSI”) Conflict-Free Smelter Program (“CFSP”), which provides suppliers an independent, third-party audit that determines which smelters and refiners can be verified as having systems in place to responsibly source minerals in line with current global standards.




Summarized below are the design components of our conflict minerals program as they relate to the five-step framework as provided by the OECD Guidance:

Establishment of a strong company management system through:
The adoption of a Conflict Minerals Policy;
The establishment of an internal team of subject matter experts that includes members of our supply chain, purchasing, legal, and quality organizations, and is managed by our General Counsel;
The institution of processes for new suppliers of our integrated circuits whereby conflict mineral conformance is discussed during initial business reviews;
The inclusion of a flow-down clause in new or renewed supplier contracts relating to the sourcing of 3TG minerals;
The requirement that our integrated circuit suppliers abide by the Cirrus Logic Supplier Code of Conduct, which is based on the RBA Code of Conduct;
The communication of our Supplier Code of Conduct to our suppliers with, in certain cases, accompanying training;
Participation in RMI initiatives; and
The provision of multiple communication channels to serve as grievance mechanisms for early warning risk awareness, including the availability of an anonymous reporting hotline available for reporting possible violations of the Company’s policies.
Identification and assessment of risks in the supply chain by:
Identifying first-tier suppliers to engage in our due diligence efforts;
For select subcontractors associated with the manufacture of our integrated circuit products, incorporating conflict minerals data review as part of our annual quality audits;
Conducting a survey of our direct supply chain using the template known as the RMI CMRT;
Reviewing and validating smelter information provided by suppliers and working with our supply chain to correct any inaccuracies in reporting;
Requiring sourcing only from SORs that are CFSP conformant or that have successfully undergone a similar independent third-party audit verification;
Comparing the smelters identified by our suppliers against lists of smelters that are conformant with RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”);
Identifying smelter usage by greatest risk and prioritizing efforts, if any, associated with our due diligence with those smelters; and
Participating in RMI as a member of the smelter engagement team, which assists in efforts to encourage smelter participation in the RMAP.
Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks by:
Responding to risks identified in the supply chain by confirming that all smelters identified in survey responses from our suppliers have been verified by the RMAP;
Mitigating risks by performing direct outreach when necessary with smelters at risk for non-conformance to RMAP protocols to ensure continued compliance;
Collaborating with our supply chain to apply appropriate and reasonable leverage to ensure identified risks are tracked and removing non-conformant and/or inactive SORs in a timely manner if such SORs are unable or unwilling to remediate identified risks; this is done in consultation with information that RMI makes available to its members;
Exercising leverage over our upstream suppliers through contractual obligations and requirements to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which is based on the RBA Code of Conduct and includes provisions requiring responsible sourcing of conflict minerals;
Reporting on a quarterly basis to senior management, including the Company’s Senior Vice President of Supply Chain; Vice President of Engineering Operations; and Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, the status and findings derived from our due diligence efforts;
Informing the Company’s Audit Committee yearly on our due diligence activities and Conflict Minerals Report;
Designing and implementing training or recommendations for relevant first-tier suppliers to improve their systems of transparency and control; and
Communicating our Conflict Minerals Policy to suppliers.
Auditing supply chain due diligence by:
Requesting our suppliers to report to us using an industry-developed audit program through RMI that is administered by independent third- party auditors;
Assessing the conflict minerals processes, procurement, and documentation of our suppliers;
Achieving 100 percent participation rate of our integrated circuit and Board component suppliers in RMI’s audit program for at least the third consecutive year; and
Supporting, through our participation in and financial support of, RMI’s efforts to determine mine or location of origin of conflict minerals as described on the RMI website at http://www.responsiblemineralsinitiative.org.
Reporting on supply chain due diligence:
Communicate our Conflict Minerals Policy on our website at https://statics.cirrus.com/pubs/quality/Conflict_Minerals_Policy.pdf; and
Report annually our Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD and Conflict Mineral Report filed with the SEC and publicly communicated on our website at www.cirrus.com/company/quality/corporate-compliance/.





2. Due Diligence Measures Performed:

The Company exercised due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG minerals. Below is a description of the measures we performed for this   reporting period to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals contained in our products:

Communicated our Conflict Minerals Policy to our suppliers;
Conducted a supply-chain survey of 14 direct suppliers of our integrated circuit products using the RMI’s CMRT, requesting information regarding the necessary conflict minerals and identification of smelter and refiners that process such minerals;
Conducted a supply-chain survey of 26 suppliers of our Boards using the RMI’s CMRT, requesting information regarding the necessary conflict minerals and identification of smelter and refiners that process such minerals;
Received responses to surveys from 100% of our suppliers with respect to our integrated circuits and Board component suppliers;
Reviewed survey data for completeness, and contacted those suppliers that we identified as having contained incomplete or potentially inaccurate information to seek additional clarifying information;
Compared smelters identified by our suppliers against lists of smelters certified as conflict free through the RMAP; and
Conducted Conflict Minerals Program Assessments of 14 suppliers and implemented program updates as necessary, focusing on the due diligence processes and policies of certain direct suppliers of our integrated circuit products.

IV. Results of Due Diligence Measures

Based on our due diligence efforts as it relates to our integrated circuits, we identified the facilities set forth in Annex II that could potentially have produced the necessary 3TG minerals in our products. Of the 206 smelters that we identified, 20 were believed to potentially be sourcing from the Covered Countries. However, none of the smelters identified in our supply chain are known to us as sourcing 3TG minerals that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the DRC or adjoining countries. In Annex II, we have indicated the facilities identified in our supply chain as of 10 April 2020.

Based on our due diligence efforts as it relates to our Boards, we identified the facilities set forth in Annex III that could potentially have produced the necessary 3TG minerals in our products. Of the 260 identified smelters, 26 were believed to be sourcing from Covered Countries. None of the smelters that were identified in our supply chain for our Board suppliers are known to us as sourcing 3TG minerals that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the DRC or adjoining countries. In Annex III, we have indicated the facilities identified in our supply chain for Boards as of 10 April 2020.

V. Inherent Limitations and Risks with our Due Diligence Measures

The vast majority of our products that we sell are integrated circuits. We employ a “fabless” model for the manufacture, assembly, and test of our integrated circuits. We do not own or operate our own foundries or manufacturing facilities, and therefore, outsource our integrated circuit manufacturing to third-party foundries, primarily in Asia. We also outsource all product assembly, packaging and testing of our products to several assembly and test subcontractors in Asia.

With our fabless manufacturing strategy and our process for acquiring components for our Boards, we are a downstream consumer of certain 3TG minerals and our due diligence efforts can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance regarding the source and chain of custody for the necessary conflict minerals in the products that we sell. Our supply chain is complex, and there are multiple tiers between our company and the mine that ultimately supplies 3TG materials. Given our place in the supply chain, we have no direct relationships with smelters and refiners, and therefore, possess no independent means of determining the source and origin of conflict mineral ores processed by smelters and refiners. We are regularly monitoring the Smelter or Refiner (SOR) Master Tool prepared and distributed by RMI; we work with our suppliers to understand how those SORs whose status is flagged as “Not Eligible” or “Non-Conformant” fit into our supply chain and request their removal from our supply chain as appropriate. Our due diligence processes are based on the necessity of seeking data from our suppliers and component manufacturers, who similarly rely on their supply chains to identify the original sources of the necessary conflict minerals. We also rely, to a large extent, on information collected and provided by independent third-party audit programs. Such sources of information may yield inaccurate or incomplete information and may be subject to fraud. This concern may be exacerbated after the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission’s statement on the Rule in April 2017 indicating that, in light of the regulatory uncertainties relating to the Rule, the staff of the SEC will not recommend an enforcement action if companies only file a Form SD, and not a Conflict Minerals Report, to the extent otherwise required to be filed as an exhibit under the Rule.

In addition, for Boards, we acquire components from various suppliers, upon whom we rely to perform their own due diligence with respect to the source of materials in those components. Further, component manufacturers are several tiers further from the mine level, which could potentially lead to less accurate and outdated data.

Additionally, the complete supply chain from the SORs to our final integrated circuits or Boards involves a complex multi-step process that may be subject to changes without our knowledge on a frequent basis. We seek sourcing data from directs suppliers on at least an annual basis and request that the data cover the entire reporting year. However, due to timing of our requests, there is a risk that the data that we acquire will not reflect every supplier in the supply chain during the relevant period.

VI. Future Steps to Mitigate Risks

Based on our efforts to collect data, we believe the main risks that we have identified are related to the lack of data and the quality of data. We intend to take the following steps to improve the due diligence conducted to further mitigate any risk that the necessary 3TG minerals in our products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries:
a.Continue to engage with suppliers and direct them to training resources to attempt to increase the response rate and improve the content of  the supplier survey responses, particularly with the suppliers of components for our Boards;
b.Incorporate conflict minerals data review as part of our annual quality audits that we perform on 100% of our subcontractors associated with the manufacture of our integrated circuit products;
c.Continue to participate with RMI to expand the smelters and refiners participating in the RMAP;
d.Continue to work with the OECD or relevant trade associations to define and improve best practices and encourage responsible sourcing of 3TG minerals, including from the Covered Countries, in accordance with the OECD Guidance; and
e.Encourage smelters to continue participation in Conflict-Free Smelter Program.
