INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2017
Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (“Report”) of Interlink Electronics, Inc. for calendar year 2017 has been prepared in accordance with Rule 13p-1 (“Rule 13p-1”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), the instructions to Form SD, and the Public Statement on the Effect of the Recent Court of Appeals Decision on the Conflict Minerals Rule issued by the Director of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29, 2014 (the “SEC Statement”). The Company notes the Updated Statement on the Effect of the Court of Appeals Decision on the Conflict Minerals Rule issued by the SEC Division of Corporation Finance on April 7, 2017. Please refer to Rule 13p-1, Form SD and the 1934 Act Release No. 34-67716 for definitions to the terms used in this Report, unless otherwise defined herein. As used in this Report and unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Interlink,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are references to Interlink Electronics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The content of our website as referred to in this Form SD is included for general information only and is not incorporated by reference into this Form SD.
This Report outlines the steps we undertook in accordance with Rule 13p-1, Form SD, and the SEC Statement in connection with the existence of Conflict Minerals in products we manufacture or contract to manufacture. Our diligence measures were designed to adhere, in all material respects, with the nationally recognized due diligence framework in the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the related Supplement on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and the Gold Supplement (Second Edition OECD 2013) (the “OECD Framework”).
Company Overview
Interlink designs, develops, manufactures and sells a range of force-sensing technologies that incorporate our proprietary materials technology, firmware and software into a portfolio of standard products and custom solutions. These include sensor components, subassemblies, modules and products that support effective, efficient cursor control and novel three-dimensional user inputs. Our Human Machine Interface (“HMI”) technology platforms are deployed in a wide range of markets including consumer electronics, automotive, industrial, and medical. The application of our HMI technology platforms includes vehicle entry, vehicle multi-media control interface, rugged touch controls, presence detection, collision detection, speed and torque controls, biological monitoring and others.
Our position in the supply chain is as a remote downstream purchaser, several levels removed from the actual mining of the Conflict Minerals or the smelters or refiners that process these minerals. We do not directly make purchases of raw ore or unrefined Conflict Minerals from the Covered Countries and we do not directly source any products or components from the Covered Countries. In light of our remote position in the supply chain, we must rely upon our suppliers (and their multiple sub-suppliers and intermediaries) for information on and verification of the chain of custody of Conflict Minerals contained in our products.
Enumerated paragraphs set out below conform to the Instructions set forth in Item 1.01(c) of Form SD.
1.Due Diligence
After conducting a “reasonable country of origin inquiry” (“RCOI”) in accordance with the instructions to Item 1.01 of Form SD (and as disclosed in our Report on Form SD for the year ended December 31, 2016), the Company was unable to conclude, without further diligence, that none of the Conflict Minerals in its products, that were not sourced from recycled or scrap materials, did not originate in the Covered Countries. During the period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017, the Company conditionally approved three new suppliers, however, we are not currently selling products with materials from two of these three suppliers. Given the consistency of our supply chain, we continued to rely on the calendar year 2016 RCOI results for the conclusions reached in this Report.
(i) Conformity with OECD Framework
In accordance with Rule 13p-1, we designed our Conflict Mineral Compliance Program to conform, in all material respects, with the five-step process outlined in the OECD Framework. In addition, our diligence measures relied upon information and templates obtained from the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global e-Sustainability (“EICC/GeSI”) Initiative with the smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals. The five-step process identified within the OECD Framework includes: (1) establishing strong company management systems; (2) identifying and assessing supply chain risk; (3) designing and implementing a risk response strategy; (4) third party auditing of our due diligence practices; and (5) reporting annually on supply chain due diligence. This Report outlines the measures taken by us in accordance with the OECD Framework during the reporting period.
(1) Established Strong Company Management Systems
We established an interdepartmental committee (the “Committee”) to develop the Company’s assessment and compliance process, with oversight from senior management. Through the Committee, we identified and educated relevant internal departments or personnel affected, including in Purchasing, Finance (Compliance), and Operations.
· | We have adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy (the “Policy”) that states our commitment to ethical business conduct and the responsible sourcing of minerals through our global supply chain. The Policy is available on our website at www.interlinkelectronics.com under “Investors—Corporate Governance”. |
· | We reviewed materials from the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition® (EICC®), the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI), who are developing tools to help enable companies to source conflict-free minerals. |
· | We communicated with our suppliers and prospective suppliers via direct correspondence and telephone calls to inform them of (i) our Policy, and (ii) our intent to continue to work with them as reasonably practicable given our supply chain position and market leverage for increased understanding of the use of Conflict Minerals within our supply chain and to obtain wherever possible their commitment to facilitate our compliance with applicable law. |
· | We confirmed that purchase order terms and conditions should be conformed where practicable to the Policy, recognizing that many of our suppliers demand terms and conditions and use standard forms with respect to which we have no leverage or ability to alter. |
· | We established a process to evaluate the chain of custody of Conflict Minerals within our supply chain, including: |
o | Analyzing our existing product offerings annually for scoping within the context of the Rule. |
o | Developing an internal process to evaluate new products as developed to minimize the introduction of Conflict Minerals into our supply chain where possible. |
o | Implemented a feedback mechanism through the Company’s Supplier Relations team to work with suppliers. |
(2) Identified and Assessed Supply Chain Risk through Due Diligence
Step 1Our Purchasing team reviewed our product offerings to determine which suppliers provided materials, components or products that became part of products we manufactured or contracted to be manufactured.
Step 2Our Operations team then determined which manufactured or contracted to be manufactured products contained or were likely to contain conflict minerals necessary to the production or functionality of those products. Through steps 1 and 2, we determined that 57 suppliers were relevant to this process (“Identified Suppliers”). During the calendar year 2017, we added three additional suppliers to this process, bringing the number of Identified Suppliers to 60.
Step 3Under the Committee’s direction, we engaged a third-party consulting firm, Source Intelligence, to assist with the initial collection of information about the presence and sourcing of conflict minerals used in the products and components supplied to us during the calendar year 2016. For calendar year 2017 we did not re-engage the third-party consulting firm. From the information collected, we conducted a due diligence assessment of relevant product suppliers in accordance with the following:
We designed and implemented a due diligence program for supplier outreach and engagement that involved (i) developing a contact list of relevant suppliers and (ii) communicating with them to obtain information on the chain of custody and source of origin of Conflict Minerals in supplied products. Our due diligence consisted of providing each Identified Supplier with the EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “Template”) to obtain the necessary information and certifications from our suppliers. We received responses from 38 of our Identified Suppliers who were surveyed, and the three new Identified Suppliers were required to submit a Template as part of the approval process.
Step 4Our Purchasing team, with guidance from the Committee, analyzed the results of the Identified Supplier survey forms that were returned to us. We reviewed the survey responses from each Identified Supplier that responded to determine whether the data provided was complete or whether further follow-up was required. Follow-up was conducted by phone calls and emails, as necessary. The team compared the smelters and refiners identified by the suppliers on the survey forms with the EICC/GeSI Conflict Free Smelter Initiative (“CFSI”) list of conflict-free smelters and refiners. The CFSI List is now part of the Responsible Minerals Initiative in their Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”). Smelters and refiners on the RMAP “Conformant List” are participants in the RMAP and are conformant with the RMAP assessment protocols. Smelters and refiners on the RMAP “Active List” are participants in the RMAP and
have committed to undergo an audit or are participating in one of the cross-recognized certification programs. Any smelters and refiners who were not in accordance with RMAP protocols as reported by the RMAP were compared to the Department of Commerce list of “World-Wide Conflict Mineral Processing Facilities” (the “DOC Smelter List”) in order to verify their existence. The results of these comparisons are set forth on Annex I to this Report.
(3) Developed and Implemented a Risk Response Strategy
In analyzing the results from our supply chain diligence, we recognized that certain risks exist in our supply chain that require further follow-up and mitigation efforts. We have established the following plan for risk mitigation, which we review periodically for relevance and effectiveness.
Year 1 (Calendar Year 2016)
· | Conduct base line analysis of responses from first-tier suppliers. |
· | Compare the smelters and refiners identified in the supply chain survey against the list of smelter facilities which have been identified as “conflict free” by programs such as CSFI for tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold, and otherwise identified on the DOC Smelter List. |
· | Identify gaps in the data collection and high-risk suppliers, and continue to follow-up with suppliers as practicable. |
Year 2+ (Calendar Year 2017 +)
· | Communicate survey results to our suppliers of relevant products. |
· | Continue efforts in supplier education and outreach, including additional diligence with suppliers providing incomplete data. |
· | Require new suppliers to complete a Template and comply with Rule 13p-1. |
· | Follow-up on remediation efforts to obtain complete and accurate chain of custody information where possible to identify smelters/refiners of origin. |
· | Continue to monitor the smelters and refiners identified in the supply chain against the latest data and other published lists of smelter facilities which have been identified as “conflict free”. |
· | Develop and implement a progressive performance improvement plan for Identified Suppliers on an as-needed basis. |
(4) Third Party Audit of Due Diligence Practices
This Report has not been subject to an independent private sector audit in accordance with the SEC Statement.
(5) Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence
The Company's Form SD and Conflict Mineral Report, together with our Policy Statement, are posted on our website at www.interlinkelectronics.com under “Investors—Corporate Governance”.
(ii) Independent Third Party Audit
This Report has not been subject to an independent private sector audit in accordance with the SEC Statement.
(iii) Summary of Diligence Results; Risk Mitigation Efforts
Tracing materials back to their mine of origin is a complex aspect of responsible sourcing in our supply chain. Our position as a remote downstream purchaser and supplier requires us to depend substantially on the cooperation of our suppliers and their numerous sub-suppliers, many of which are not subject to SEC reporting requirements and with whom we have limited leverage due to our size, market position and available resources. As a result, we expect it may take us several years before we are able to identify all smelters and refiners in our supply chain.
In conducting our diligence, we have adopted the methodology outlined by the CFSI’s joint industry programs and outreach initiatives and have encouraged our suppliers to conform with the standards set forth in the OECD Framework and report to us using the Template or, where appropriate, our custom-designed form. We conducted follow-up calls and correspondence with suppliers where information was incomplete, unreliable or unverifiable. We identified 300 smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals in our supply chain. During calendar year 2017, one smelter was determined by the RMAP to be downstream of a smelter or refiner, and was formerly considered a smelter, but has since been reclassified. The remaining 299 smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals in our supply chain, and the related countries of origin, as set forth on Annex I.
We are continuing our efforts to determine the smelters and refiners used by our supply chain and to verify the most reasonable known mine of origin information available. Through this effort, we have made a reasonable determination of certain of the mines or locations of origin of certain of the Conflict Minerals in our supply chain as indicated on Annex I. We have also requested that all of our suppliers support the industry-wide initiative by adopting policies and procedures consistent with the EICC/GeSI sourcing initiative and by working to align their sources with the lists of conflict-free sourced metals.
The CFSI program audits smelters and refineries to ensure that all certified smelters and refineries only use the ores that are conflict-free from the Covered Countries. The DOC List is more expansive and includes “verified” smelters and refiners, which may or may not be certified as conflict-free. We are continuing to compile the names of smelters and refineries identified by the Identified Suppliers who did respond and are working to verify the information provided. Certain of our Identified Suppliers indicated that not all of their smelters and refineries have been certified as conflict-free and we are continuing our diligence to this verify this information.

(v) Not Applicable
(vi) Not Applicable
2.Product Description
We determined that certain conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality of one or more of our products that we manufactured or had manufactured during the Reporting Period. The Company’s relevant product categories for products containing tin, tungsten, tantalum and gold, other than those sourced from scrap or recycled materials, are as follows:
· | Force sensing resistors, mouse sensors, modules and products |
· | Touchpads and touchpad modules |
The Company’s efforts to determine the smelters, refiners, mines and locations of origin of the Conflict Minerals in its products is described above under 1. Due Diligence, paragraphs (i) and (iii).
Conclusion
Due to the breadth and scope of the Company’s product categories, the resulting complexity of its supply chain, and the human and financial resources available to the Company, the Company acknowledges that the process of successfully tracing all of the Conflict Minerals used in its manufactured or contracted to manufacture products to their country of origin will take additional time and resources, likely several years. Moving forward, the Company will continue to implement commercially reasonable processes to improve the quantity and quality of supplier responses, verify supplier responses provided, and evaluate new product lines as developed to eliminate the introduction of Conflict Minerals into the supply chain where practicable.
The success of Interlink in making determinations about the presence and source of Conflict Minerals in its products depends upon various factors including, but not limited to, the respective due diligence efforts of its suppliers and their supply chain and their respective willingness, whether public or private entities, to disclose such information to the Company, and the ability of the involved entities in making their determinations in accordance with nationally or internationally recognized standards, including the OECD Framework and other initiatives or guidance that may develop over time. The failure to obtain reliable information from any level of our supply chain could have a material impact on our future ability to report on the presence of Conflict Minerals with any degree of certainty. There can be no assurance that our suppliers will continue to cooperate with diligence inquiries and requests for certifications or provide documentation or other evidence that we consider reliable or provided to us within a time frame sufficient to allow us to make our own assessment following appropriate further diligence measures, if any.
The information provided in this Conflict Mineral Report speaks only as of its date. Subsequent events, including the inability or unwillingness of participants in our supply chain to comply with our Policy or provide complete and accurate information requested, may affect our future determinations under Rule 13p-1.
