Conflict Minerals Report of CommScope Holding Company, Inc.

For the Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2018

Pursuant to Rule 13P-1 Under The Securities Exchange Act of 1934

CommScope Holding Company, Inc. presents this Conflict Minerals Report for the reporting period of January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and associated guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless otherwise specified or unless the context otherwise requires, references to “CommScope,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to CommScope Holding Company, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Overview of our Conflict Minerals Program

CommScope is a leading global provider of infrastructure solutions for communication networks. In 2014, our leaders defined a sustainability philosophy on corporate responsibility that embraces our core company values. As part of our values to respect people and our planet, we expect our suppliers to conduct their worldwide operations in a socially and environmentally responsible manner and source raw materials only from reputable organizations pursuant to our Conflict Minerals Policy (the “Policy”) and following the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) due diligence framework, third edition. The Policy is available on our website at https://www.commscope.com/Docs/Corporate-Responsibility/Supplier-Responsibility/CommScope_Conflict_Minerals_Policy.pdf.

CommScope Products

Conflict minerals in the form of tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (collectively, “3TG”) were necessary to the functionality or production of products we manufactured or contracted to have manufactured during 2018 within our operating segments as follows:

 

Connectivity Solutions – Fiber optic and copper cable and connectivity solutions for use in data centers and business enterprise, telecommunications, cable television and residential broadband networks. Includes both indoor and outdoor network applications.

 

Mobility Solutions – Essential building blocks for base station sites and related connectivity; indoor, outdoor and distributed antenna wireless systems; and wireless network backhaul products and services.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

We conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) to determine whether any of the necessary conflict minerals in our 2018 products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the adjoining countries (the “Covered Countries”), or were conflict minerals from recycled or scrap sources. The term "conflict minerals" comes from section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Conflict Minerals Rule, 17 CFR Parts 240 and 249b, and is defined as columbite-tantalite, also known as coltan (from which tantalum is derived); cassiterite (tin); gold; wolframite (tungsten); or their derivatives; or any other mineral or its derivatives determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country. To make the RCOI determination, we engaged our suppliers to identify the smelters and refiners (“facilities”) of necessary conflict minerals that may have been contained in our products and that are recognized by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) to be processors of conflict minerals (“Potential 3TG Facilities”), and reviewing available information on the sourcing of conflict minerals by Potential 3TG Facilities.

Our RCOI included:

 

Identified 1,913 direct suppliers from our Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software to be considered for inclusion in a Conflict Mineral survey. These suppliers provided materials, parts, components and salable products to us in 2018.

 

Performed risk assessment or collected the RMI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “Template”) from in scope suppliers.

 

We identified 248 direct suppliers of materials, parts, components or products containing necessary conflict minerals (“3TG Direct Suppliers”).

 

A requirement, as part of the survey and our accompanying communications, that, when inquired, suppliers provide a statement indicating that conflict minerals are not in use in the supplied parts or complete the Template. The Template is used to provide CommScope information from their supply chains regarding Potential 3TG Facilities and the origin of necessary conflict minerals processed at these facilities;

 

If needed, follow-up with 3TG Direct Suppliers to clarify, update or complete information reported to us through the Template or their statement. Response red flags requiring follow-up included issues with completeness, consistency, supplier’s completeness of smelter data, listing of unknown smelters, listing non-conformant smelters, listing high risk smelters, listing embargoed countries and indicating 3TGs were not used in their products when assessed High Risk as containing 3TGs.

We have clearly communicated to suppliers that we expect all materials supplied to CommScope to be free of conflict minerals from the Covered Countries. However, continuing to source from conformant smelters or refiners from Covered Countries may be acceptable. Suppliers indicating sourcing from the Covered Countries require follow up if the supplier did not state that they are sourcing from conformant RMI smelters or refiners. Suppliers using non-conformant smelters are encouraged to reassess their supply chain to only source from conformant smelters.


RCOI Conflict Minerals Status

We have determined with respect to our products containing necessary conflict minerals that we know or have reason to believe that some of the necessary conflict minerals originated or may have originated in the Covered Countries. Further, we know or have reason to believe that these necessary conflict minerals may not be conflict minerals from recycled or scrap sources.

Conflict Minerals Due Diligence Measures

Our conflict minerals due diligence process is based on the OECD’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 2016) (the “OECD Guidance”), a recognized due diligence framework.

The design of our due diligence measures is specific to our downstream position in the minerals supply chain and the OECD recommendations for downstream actors that have no direct relationships to smelters or refiners, and the use of independent facility assessment programs to provide information about smelters or refiners.

The design of our due diligence process includes the following steps:

(1)

Establishment of strong internal company management systems, including the following:

 

Conflict Minerals Policy.

 

Cross-functional Conflict Minerals Corporate Management Team that includes Global Procurement, Quality, Product Compliance, Legal and Corporate Responsibility, with executive management support.

 

Conflict minerals process document as part of our ISO 9001/TL9000 Quality Management System “Due Diligence Process for Reporting of Conflict Minerals.”

 

Supplier agreement language that includes conflict free sourcing and explanation of supplier requirements.

 

Utilizing the SAP Product Stewardship Network for data storage, analysis and reporting.

 

Employees and external parties have access to an ethics reporting system, the CommAlert Line (866-277-2410), or may report via the website https://commalert.alertline.com or email CommScope’s Corporate Ethics Officer at ethics@commscope.com.

(2)

Design and implementation of a strategy to respond to identified risks - As a downstream supplier, we do not assess the due diligence practices of Potential 3TG Facilities. We survey our 3TG direct suppliers and unresponsive suppliers are identified and forwarded to the Global Procurement team for further review. We encourage 3TG Direct Suppliers to urge the Potential 3TG Facilities in their supply chain to join the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP). Each unresponsive supplier is indicated in a report provided to the Conflict Minerals Corporate Management Team for supplier review to determine if alternative sourcing will be pursued. Unresponsive suppliers are identified by the following:

 

No response after three or more attempts.

 

Smelter data is not provided, but use of 3TGs is expected.

 

Poor smelter data (incorrect, unknown or high-risk smelters).

 

Assertion that they are not in scope of the law.

 

Conflict free letters or conflict mineral policies with no data behind their response.

 

Distributors that provide no smelter data and will not provide the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) contact on the products supplied.

 

Suppliers acknowledging that 3TGs are sourced from the Covered Countries without providing further explanation of the smelters or refiners in use.

 

 


 

(3)

Support of industry organizations to carry out independent third-party audits of facilities’ due diligence practices - We support the industry initiative that conducts audits of facilities’ due diligence activities and we encourage our suppliers that use smelters or refiners to participate in the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP). As a downstream supplier, we do not have a direct relationship with conflict minerals smelters and do not perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chain. In connection with our due diligence program, we utilized information made available by the RMI concerning independent third-party audits of smelters.

(4)

Annual reporting through this Conflict Minerals Report.

Results

This is our fourth reporting year and we are progressing toward our objective of responsible minerals sourcing. Of the Potential 3TG Facilities identified, there are 3TG Facilities reported by suppliers that have not yet participated in the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process. As discussed above in the RCOI Conflict Minerals Status section, we have determined with respect to our products containing necessary conflict minerals that we know or have reason to believe that some of the necessary conflict minerals originated or may have originated in the Covered Countries. Further, we know or have reason to believe that these necessary conflict minerals may not be conflict minerals from recycled or scrap sources.

Statement on Supplier Status

Supplier knowledge of the Conflict Minerals law and, in turn, their responses have improved from our first reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) in 2015. Further understanding of the law and our requirements should promote continued improvement in the data received from the RCOI process. However, a number of suppliers have not yet performed a full inquiry with their suppliers at this time.

Future Goals to Mitigate Risk

We are committed to continuously improving our RCOI and due diligence process and intend to take the following steps in 2019:

 

(1)

Further educate our suppliers on our conflict minerals requirements for them.

 

(2)

Clearly communicate our conflict free sourcing expectations, as defined in our Policy.

 

(3)

Leverage our supplier relationships to encourage better traceability measures by in-scope suppliers.

 

(4)

Continue to refine our due diligence process in accordance with the OECD Guidance.

 

(5)

Review and follow-up with suppliers on reported unknown, incorrect and high-risk smelters.

 

(6)

Implement an integrated conflict minerals solution with our ERP software to determine conflict status at the product level.

Tables 1 – 4: Facility Lists by Mineral, Country and Status

The Tables are a result of the review of the data from several sources including information reported to us by our 3TG direct suppliers on the Template, from the SAP Product Stewardship Network and from the RMI website (http://www.responsiblemineralsinitiative.org). In many cases, facility information was provided to us for the entire supply chain of our 3TG Direct Suppliers and did not identify those facilities believed to contribute necessary conflict minerals to any particular CommScope product. There are 79 tin Facilities listed, 42 tantalum Facilities listed, 42 tungsten Facilities listed, and 121 gold Facilities listed. This compliance status is based solely on information made publicly available by the RMI, without independent verification by us. Unverified, unknown and high-risk facilities may not be listed as we have relied upon our suppliers to verify smelter validity.

Facility Name is listed as they appear on the RMI Smelter or Refiner Information Exchange or the name as given by the supplier. A company appears more than once if it was reported to us for more than one facility (i.e., smelter, refiner, recycler or scrap processor) that is processing different types of minerals or metals.

Facility Identification is the RMI Smelter or Refiner identification number as shown on the RMI website, from the Template, or the supplier identification for the smelter or refiner.

Facility Country refers to the processing facility’s location and does not indicate necessarily where the facility sources from.

Status refers to the compliance status of the smelter or refiner.

RMI Conformant refers to facilities that are listed by RMI (as of April 4, 2019) as (a) conformant with RMAP protocols or (b) certified or accredited by a similar independent facility assessment program such as the Responsible Jewellery Council’s (RJC) Chain-of-Custody Certification Program, or the London Bullion Market Association’s (LBMA) Responsible Gold Programme.

Not participating refers to known facilities with sourcing practices that could not yet be determined.
