SEC Final Rule on Conflict Minerals

 

The Rule was adopted by the SEC to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to Conflict Minerals as directed by Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.  The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants who manufacture or contract for manufacture products that contain Conflict Minerals which are necessary in the production or for the functionality of those products. For products that contain Conflict Minerals, the registrant must conduct in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in any of the Covered Countries or are from recycled or scrap sources.

1.              Company and Product Overview

 

We are a global gaming company, operating and providing an integrated portfolio of technology products and services across all gaming markets, including lottery management services, online and instant lotteries, electronic gaming machines, gaming systems, digital lottery, digital gaming, sports betting, instant ticket printing and commercial services. We provide business-to-consumer and business-to-business products and services to customers in over 100 jurisdictions.

 

Based upon our internal assessment, the Rule applies to the materials used in Covered Products. However, the Company does not manufacture or contract for manufacture the hardware installed within our systems technology products, and the policies and procedures described in this Report have not been applied to our systems technology products.

 

We recognize that the use of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) is necessary in the production or for the functionality of the Covered Products. We seek to ensure that any Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, any 3TG) within the manufacturing process for our Covered Products that originate from the Covered Countries are RMAP-conformant. In furtherance of the foregoing, we have implemented policies and procedures to comply with the Rule requirements, including a Conflict Minerals Policy (the "Policy").

 

2.              Conflict Minerals Diligence Program and Due Diligence Process

 

The Company maintains various due diligence policies, procedures and controls to support compliance with the Rule (collectively, the "Conflict Minerals Compliance Program"). The due diligence program we employ to identify and trace Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, 3TG) in our supply chain for Covered Products aligns with the procedures and tools provided by the EICC, the GeSI, and the OECD.  For the Reporting Period, we requested that Suppliers whose products contain Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, 3TG) submit information to us using the CMRT. The CMRT is a standardized reporting template developed by the RMI that facilitates the transfer of information through the supply chain regarding mineral country of origin and smelters and refiners being utilized. The CMRT was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide minerals to a Supplier's supply chain.  It includes questions regarding: (i) the Supplier's RMAP-conformant policy and due diligence efforts; (ii) the Supplier's engagement with its direct suppliers, including a listing of the smelters used by the Supplier and its sub-suppliers; and (iii) the origin of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) included in Suppliers’ products. 

As communicated to our Suppliers in our Supplier Code of Conduct (the "Code"), we expect that our Suppliers have adopted a Conflict Minerals policy to reasonably assure the Company that any Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, 3TG) contained within the products they manufacture are RMAP-conformant. We expect that our Suppliers have established and implemented an appropriate due diligence program to ensure RMAP-conformance across their supply chains, and our Suppliers are expected to report the results of their due diligence efforts to us on at least an annual basis.  The Company reviews all CMRT responses and maintains records of our due diligence activities, including all communications with Suppliers. We expect Suppliers to take similar measures with their sub-suppliers to ensure alignment throughout the supply chain.

 

We expect confirmation from Suppliers that they have adopted a Conflict Minerals policy and are following such a policy in all material respects. The Company retains the right to utilize alternate Suppliers if a Supplier is unwilling or unable to meet our expectations. We also expect that our Suppliers report to us their due diligence efforts for identifying the supply chain of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) within their process as well as their findings, and we retain the right to conduct enhanced diligence of certain Suppliers to ensure consistency with our Policy and Supplier requirements.

 

The Conflicts Minerals Compliance Program has been developed with consideration of the third edition of the OECD Guidance and the related supplements for Conflict Minerals. Specific procedures include defining Suppliers that supply Conflict Minerals, identifying risks, communicating Supplier responsibilities, utilizing a cross-functional team, collecting necessary information and maintaining records of activity, responses and conclusions.

 

Suppliers are responsible for reporting due diligence efforts to the Company by completing and submitting the CMRT and a Conflict Minerals policy to us on at least an annual basis. In connection with the foregoing, the Company has established a cross-functional team to manage the Conflict Minerals Compliance Program, which includes:

•identifying which Suppliers either directly provide Conflict Minerals or provide products to us containing Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, 3TG);

•distribution of a Conflict Minerals letter, a copy of the Code and a link to the RMI form to all Suppliers deemed in scope;

•tracking which Suppliers have responded to requests to complete the CMRT, as well as retention of the Suppliers’ completed CMRT and Conflict Minerals policies;

•reviewing all communications and responses from Suppliers and completing further due diligence by asking follow up questions of Suppliers with missing or inconsistent responses, if warranted;

---

•maintaining smelter information from Suppliers and checking smelter identifications against the lists of RMAP-Conformant Smelters available at www.conflictfreesourcing.org and in the CMRT; and

•Reporting to management annually with respect to the Company's due diligence and compliance obligations.

3.              Description of Due Diligence Measures Performed

 

Below is a description of the measures we performed for the Reporting Period to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) contained in the Covered Products that we had reason to believe may have originated from the Covered Countries and may not have come from recycled or scrap sources.

 

To identify relevant Suppliers subject to due diligence, we reviewed 66 Suppliers representing in the aggregate 95% of our 2024 spend on materials. Starting with that population of Suppliers, we removed those Suppliers deemed out of scope. Suppliers were determined to be out of scope if the materials purchased from them either: (i) did not contain Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, 3TG); (ii) were not contracted to manufacture; or (iii) were not included in any of the Covered Products. If any uncertainty remained as to the potential inclusion of any Conflict Minerals in materials purchased from a Supplier for the Covered Products, the Supplier was considered in scope. As a result of this review, we identified 48 Suppliers in scope and 18 Suppliers out of scope, and the 48 Suppliers found in scope were subject to further due diligence. 

 

We surveyed the 48 Suppliers in scope using the CMRT, requesting that each submit information requested by the CMRT and provide a copy of their Conflict Minerals policy. We continued to follow up with the in-scope Suppliers through subsequent requests until April 29, 2025. The responses included 45 EICC/GeSI declarations and 10 Conflict Minerals policies.  Thirty (30) Suppliers provided smelter documentation. Among the Suppliers providing smelter documentation, 477 smelters were identified, of which 382 are RMAP-Conformant Smelters. The remaining 95 smelters identified are not currently verified as RMAP-Conformant Smelters. Please refer to Appendix A for additional information regarding smelter names, country location and mineral.

 

We do not have a direct relationship with smelters and refiners, nor do we perform direct audits of these smelters and refiners that provide us with Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, with 3TG) through our supply chain. We rely upon our direct Suppliers (and their sub-suppliers) as well as industry efforts, such as EICC and RMI, to influence smelters and refineries to become RMAP-Conformant Smelters.

 

4.              RCOI

 

In connection with the RCOI, we determined that it may take time for some of our Suppliers to verify the origin of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) they supply directly or indirectly to us for use in our products, as those Suppliers source materials from many sub-suppliers. Further, as part of the RCOI process, we adopted the RMI industry approach and traced back the origin of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) by identifying smelters, refineries or recyclers and scrap supplier sources. We used the RMI and its RMAP to trace the mine of origin of Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, of 3TG) in materials used by our Suppliers at the enterprise level. Many Suppliers submitted CMRT responses encompassing their entire supply chains, rather than focusing only on components incorporated into the Covered Products. Although some smelters reported might not be providing material for the Covered Products, we have listed each smelter identified by our Suppliers on Appendix A. The RMAP audits smelters and refineries to ensure that all RMAP-Conformant Smelters only use ores that are Covered Countries-conflict free.

 

The results of our RCOI are set forth in Appendix A. Twelve (12) of the Suppliers that provided smelter documentation to us indicated that the Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, the 3TG) supplied to them did not originate from any smelters located in any of the Covered Countries. Eighteen (18) of the Suppliers that provided smelter documentation to us reported sourced Conflict Minerals (and, specifically, sourced 3TG) from smelters located in Covered Countries, as listed in Appendix A below. Five (5) Suppliers indicated that gold was supplied to them from African Gold Refinery, located in Uganda, which is a Covered Country. Thirteen (13) Suppliers indicated that tin was supplied to them from Luna Smelter, Ltd., in Rwanda which is a Covered Country. Eight (8) Suppliers indicated that Tantalum was supplied to them from PowerX, Ltd. located in Rwanda, which is a Covered Country. Four (4) Suppliers indicated that Tin was supplied to them from Mining Minerals Resources SARL in the Democratic Republic of the Congo which is a Covered Country. Three (3) Suppliers indicated that Tin was supplied to them from Woodcross Smelting Company, located in the Democratic Republic of the Congo which is a Covered Country. Luna Smelter Ltd, Mining Minerals Resources SARL, Woodcross Smelting Company, and PowerX, Ltd. are currently verified as RMAP-Conformant Smelters.  African Gold Refinery is not currently verified as a RMAP-Conformant Smelter. The Suppliers that sourced Conflict Minerals from non-RMAP-Conformant Smelters did not confirm whether any of the gold, tin or tantalum supplied to them was included in Covered Products supplied to us during the Reporting Period. Gold, tin, and tantalum are included in most of our Covered Products and are sourced from multiple Suppliers. We are unable to trace, without unreasonable effort, which of the Covered Products included gold, tin or tantalum from these Suppliers during the Reporting Period. As a result, we are unable to reliably determine whether any of the necessary Conflict Minerals in the Covered Products originated in the Covered Countries or whether such Conflict Minerals were entirely from recycled or scrap sources or were from other conflict-free sources.
