CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT
(For the reporting period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022)
INTRODUCTION
This Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) for Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd (the “Company”, “Credo”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is provided in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”) for the reporting period from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 and, unless otherwise indicated herein with respect to a particular statement, covers the activities of all Company subsidiaries. The Report is being filed as Exhibit 1.01 to our specialized disclosure report on Form SD and is also posted on our website at www.Credosemi.com under the heading “Investors” “Financials” “SEC Filings”. Information contained on or accessible through our website is for general information purposes only and is not part of this Report.
The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants who manufacture products containing the minerals and metals referred to in the Rule as “Conflict Minerals”. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) and its adjoining countries have reserves of Conflict Minerals, some of which are illegally sourced and traded by armed groups who are responsible for significant human rights violations. “Armed groups” mean an armed group that is identified as a perpetrator of serious human rights abuses in the annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices under Sections 116(d) and 502B(b) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 relating to the DRC or an adjoining country. The purpose of the Rule is to encourage companies whose products contain Conflict Minerals to endeavor to source from suppliers who do not directly or indirectly support such armed groups through their purchasing decisions. The Democratic Republic of the Congo and its adjoining countries - Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia - are sometimes referred to in this Report as the “Covered Countries”.
We are subject to the Rule because we use tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (“3TG”) in the design and manufacture of many of our products and are therefore a “downstream” company in the conflict minerals supply chain. Accordingly, we are required under the Rule to conduct a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) designed to determine in good faith whether any 3TG in our supply chain either originated in the Covered Countries or came from recycled or scrap materials. We do not directly source 3TG from mines, smelters or refiners.
Company and Product Overview
Our mission is to deliver high-speed solutions to break bandwidth barriers on every wired connection in the data infrastructure market. Credo is an innovator in providing secure, high-speed connectivity solutions that deliver improved power and cost efficiency as data rates and corresponding bandwidth requirements increase exponentially throughout the data infrastructure market. Our innovations ease system bandwidth bottlenecks while simultaneously improving on power, security and reliability. Our connectivity solutions are optimized for optical and electrical Ethernet applications, including the emerging 100G (or Gigabits per second), 200G, 400G and 800G port markets. Our products are based on our proprietary Serializer/Deserializer (“SerDes”) and Digital Signal Processor (“DSP”) technologies. Our product families include integrated circuits (“ICs”), Active Electrical Cables (“AECs”) and SerDes Chiplets. Our intellectual property (“IP”) solutions consist primarily of SerDes IP licensing.
We design, market and sell both product and IP solutions. We help define industry conventions and standards within the markets we target by collaborating with technology leaders and standards bodies. We contract with a variety of manufacturing partners to build our products based on our proprietary SerDes and DSP technologies. We develop standard solutions we can sell broadly to our end markets and also develop tailored solutions designed to address specific customer needs. Once developed, these tailored solutions can generally be broadly leveraged across our portfolio and we are able to sell the part or license the IP into the broader market.
Supply Chain and Products
Our products typically contain many parts and components obtained from a global network of suppliers, with multiple tiers of suppliers between us and the ultimate sources of the raw materials used in the manufacturing of our products. Raw materials purchased by our direct and indirect suppliers contain Conflict Minerals obtained from smelters and refiners that, in turn, source those minerals from traders and mines in various countries.
HiWire AECs
HiWire AECs are copper interconnect cables designed for affordable, low-power operation at 100G, 200G, 400G, and 800G data and emerging 1.6T speeds. HiWire AECs enable hyperscalers and 5G architects to accelerate the transition to Distributed, Disaggregated Chassis (“DDC”) by offering a high-performance alternative to short, thick Direct Attach Cables (“DACs”) and high-power, high-cost Active Optical Cables (“AOCs”). DDCs allow providers to pair hardware from ODMs with open source and third-party software to address issues surrounding operating expenses, flexibility and cost in traditional chassis applications. Our Top-of-Rack (“ToR”) to Network interface Card (“NIC”) AEC solutions enable hardware architects to pair commodity NIC and ToR hardware with value-added AECs to address needs related to redundancy and racking plans. Our HiWire AEC solutions include SWITCH, SPAN, SHIFT and CLOS AECsElectro-optics.
Optical DSPs
We provide high-performance, low-power and cost-effective 50G to 400G PAM4 optical DSPs across a broad spectrum of use cases, speeds and bandwidths. The DSPs enable optical interconnect for cloud-scale, hyperscale and enterprise data center build-outs with 100G to 800G PAM4 optical modules and build-outs for 5G wireless service providers with 50G optical modules. These full-featured DSPs utilize our industry-leading transmitters and low bit error rate (“BER”) receivers and are optimized for cost-effective production.
Line Card PHYs
We are enabling data connectivity and security in hyperscale and enterprise data centers with leading edge, low-power line card PHY solutions. Our Retimers, Gearboxes and MACsec / IPSEC devices support PAM4 / NRZ backplane and line card connectivity up to 112G per lane, supporting platforms up to 25.6 Terabits per second (“Tbps”) with 800G ports. Dedicated and multi-mode Retimers, Gearboxes and MACsecs, built around our low-power, high-performance SerDes IP, enable our customers to meet performance, power and price objectives.
Our Line Card PHY product families include our Black Hawk and Bald Eagle products for Retimers and Gearboxes, as well as our Owl series for MACsec / IPSEC applications.
SerDes Chiplets
SerDes technology enables data transmission at high rates while minimizing the number of interconnects required. As the bandwidth of interconnects increase, the complexity of the design for signal transmission increases. Our SerDes architecture has made it possible to deliver cost- and power-effective SerDes solutions in mature process nodes and make them available in chiplet form (multiple SerDes lanes in a single die) for integration with MCM System-on-Chips (“SoCs”), overcoming the need for matching core logic and SerDes IP in the same process node. Our SerDes Chiplets are designed for high performance and low power from mature processes, allowing customers to fabricate their core logic in advanced processes and combine them in their MCM SoC.
Products Covered by this Report. For the purposes of the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry and Due Diligence portion of this Report, unless otherwise indicated, “products” refers to the products in the product categories listed above with respect to which manufacturing was completed during calendar year 2022, and “suppliers” refers to, collectively, our direct product suppliers and our component product suppliers.
REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY AND DUE DILIGENCE
To comply with the Rule, we conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry and due diligence on the source and chain of custody of 3TG to determine whether they originated in a Covered Country and financed or benefited armed groups in any of these countries.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Credo conducted a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (“RCOI”) to determine whether any 3TG in our products originated in one of the Covered Countries or are from recycled or scrap sources. Because we do not purchase conflict minerals directly from any smelter or refiner, we rely on our suppliers to provide us with accurate information about the origin of the minerals in the products and components they supply to us. Our suppliers provide us with this information by submitting a Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”), a standardized reporting template developed by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) to identify smelters and refiners (“SORs”) that process 3TG contained in our products. In addition to the information provided on the CMRT, we rely on (i) information from industry sources such as the RMI, (ii) information provided by our customers, and (iii) information obtained by means of our own research.
Based on the findings of our RCOI, we have reason to believe that some 3TG present in our products may have originated in the Covered Countries. We are therefore required by the Rule to file with the SEC a Form SD and a Conflict Minerals Report as an exhibit thereto.
Due Diligence Design
On the basis of the information obtained as a result of our RCOI, we conducted a broader due diligence investigation, as described below, regarding the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals as an extension of the CMRT-based RCOI process. These due diligence measures have been designed to conform, in all material respects, with the framework specified in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Third Edition, including the related Supplements on Gold, Tin, Tantalum, and Tungsten (the “OECD Guidance”), specifically as the OECD Guidance pertains to downstream purchasers in the minerals supply chain. The OECD Guidance specifies a five-step framework for risk-based due diligence for responsible supply chains of minerals sourced from conflict-affected and high-risk areas.
Credo’s multi-layered due diligence framework with regards to conflict minerals, which is summarized below, conforms to the OECD Guidance. The below description is intended to be a summary and does not describe all of the conflict minerals due diligence measures we performed during the Reporting Period.
Step 1: Establish Strong Company Management Systems.
•Company Policy
◦Adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy (the “Policy”) and have made it publicly available on our website. (https://credosemi.gcs-web.com/static-files/8d79e00c-9347-45af-a454-54437627b30e)
•Internal Management Systems
◦Established an internal conflict minerals group led by our Legal Team to oversee Credo’s RCOI and conduct due diligence on the source and chain of custody of Credo’s necessary conflict minerals.
•System of Controls
◦Maintain material records related to our conflict minerals efforts.
◦Utilize the CMRT, a standardized reporting template developed by the RMI to identify SORs that process the necessary conflict minerals contained in our products.
•Strengthen Company Engagement with Suppliers
◦Provide the Policy to any new direct suppliers as part of Credo’s supplier onboarding process.
•Grievance Mechanism
◦Published an email address (LegalNotices@credosemi.com) in the Policy for general inquiries.
◦Maintain a confidential Ethics Hotline as a grievance mechanism to enable employees, suppliers and stakeholders, as well as the general public to anonymously report any illegal or unethical conduct, which is available at www.credosemi.com/legal/ under the heading “Corporate” “Review this Document”.
Step 2: Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain.
•Survey our supply chain using the CMRT and request that identified direct suppliers identify SORs and determine the country of origin of the minerals processed by them.
•Compare our final SORs list against the list of facilities maintained by RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) to identify which SORs are certified “conflict-free” (“Conformant”) or actively working with RMI (“Active”). RMI determines which SORs to list as Conformant or Active by conducting independent third-party assessments of each SOR’s management systems and sourcing practices and validating the SOR’s conformance with RMAP standards.
•Confirm the accuracy of the information received from our suppliers by cross-checking against data made available by the RMI and against additional information obtained either from our customers or by means of our own research to determine whether the listed SORs are in fact Conformant or Active.
•Determine if follow-up with any direct suppliers and manufacturers is necessary after the review process and based on internally defined criteria.
Step 3: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks.
•Continue to develop a risk management plan to respond appropriately to identified risks if Credo’s due diligence process discovers a smelter in our supply chain that is sourcing or processing conflict minerals from the Covered Countries and is not Conformant.
•Carry out risk mitigation efforts by encouraging suppliers to purchase materials from SORs validated as “conflict-free” by an independent auditor to demonstrate conformance with the RMAP assessment protocols and implement due diligence measures for conflict-free sourcing.
•Request and encourage direct suppliers and manufacturers, if necessary, to discontinue sourcing from SORs that are not Conformant or to encourage such SORs to participate in an independent third-party audit program to demonstrate conformance with the RMAP assessment protocols.
•Share our expectations regarding sourcing from conflict-free designated SORs with our direct suppliers and manufacturers by means of our Policy.
•Apply appropriate escalation procedures if Credo determines that there is a reasonable risk that a supplier is sourcing conflict minerals that are directly or indirectly financing or benefiting armed groups.
Step 4: Carry Out Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence.
As we do not source directly from SORs, we rely on independent third parties, including the RMI, to coordinate and conduct third-party audits of these facilities and we rely on the published results of these third-party audits to validate the responsible sourcing practices of the SORs in our supply chain.
Step 5: Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence.
Pursuant to the Rule, Credo is filing this Report as an exhibit to Form SD for the 2022 calendar year reporting period. Credo will file a Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report with the SEC on an annual basis in accordance with the Rule. The Form SD and this Report are also available on our website at https://credosemi.gcs-web.com/static-files/8d79e00c-9347-45af-a454-54437627b30e.
Description of Due Diligence Measures Performed
Conflict Minerals Processing Facilities
Based on the information provided by our suppliers and otherwise obtained through the due diligence process described above, we have identified the processing facilities from which 3TG contained in our products is sourced, which are listed in Table 1 below.
Country of Origin of Conflict Minerals
Based on information provided by our suppliers, or otherwise obtained through the due diligence process described above, we have identified that some of the 3TG may have originated from mines located in the Covered Countries.
Efforts to Determine Mine or Location of Origin
As described above, the primary focus of our due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG in our supply chain was based on the collection and assessment of (i) data provided by our suppliers on the CMRT, (ii) data provided by the RMI, (iii) data provided by our customers, and (iv) data obtained by means of our own research. As part of our review and assessment of this data, we prepared a list of SORs in our supply chain and compared this list against the list of facilities maintained by RMI’s RMAP to identify which SORs are Conformant or Active. Independent Private Sector Audit
Credo has not voluntarily elected to describe any of its products as “DRC conflict free”, and for this reason, an independent private sector audit of this Report has not been conducted.
Results of Our Due Diligence Measures
Through our diligence process described above, we achieved a response rate of 100% for our supply chain survey. As reported to us by our relevant suppliers, we have included a list of SORs determined to be legitimate processing facilities by the RMI, London Bullion Market Association (“LBMA”) and/or the Responsible Jewellery Council (“RJC”) and the locations of these facilities in Table 1 below. Because a majority of our suppliers provided supply chain information on a company level rather than on a product level, this list may include facilities that did not actually process the 3TG contained in our products.
We have identified 231 SORs in our supply chain at some point during the 2022 reporting year. During the 2022 reporting year, we received CMRT data indicating that there were certain SORs in our supply chain that were not RMAP Conformant, as described in Table 2 below. Therefore, we are unable to conclusively determine the country of origin of the necessary conflict minerals in all our products.
Ongoing Improvement Efforts
For the next reporting period, we intend to continue taking steps to further mitigate the risk that armed groups in Covered Countries could benefit from our use of conflict minerals.
These steps include:
•continue to monitor our suppliers conflict minerals sourcing practices to ensure that our suppliers remain in compliance with our Policy;
•continue to refine our conflict minerals program, including by implementing a supplier code of conduct;
•engage with our suppliers to obtain updated sourcing information regarding the conflict minerals in our supply chain;
•continue to support our suppliers’ efforts to encourage their SORs to obtain a conflict-free designation from a third-party audit program;
•advise any of our suppliers found to be sourcing from SORs that we identify as high-risk to establish an alternative source for 3TG;
•if required by the Rule, obtain an independent private sector audit for the Report; and
•continue to engage with the RBA, the RMI and other industry initiatives promoting conflict-free supply chains.
