Introduction:
Logitech International S.A., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, (“Logitech” or the “Company”) is a world leader in products that
connect people to the digital experiences they care about. Spanning multiple computing, communication and entertainment platforms, we develop and market innovative hardware and software products that enable or enhance digital navigation, music and
video entertainment, gaming, social networking, and audio and video communication over the Internet and home-entertainment control.
Logitech was founded
in Switzerland in 1981, and Logitech International S.A. has been the parent holding company of Logitech since 1988. Logitech International S.A. is a Swiss holding company with its registered office in Apples, Switzerland, which conducts its business
through subsidiaries in Americas (including North and South America), EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and Asia Pacific (including, among other countries, China, Taiwan, Japan and Australia). Shares of Logitech International S.A. are listed on
both the Nasdaq Global Select Market, under the trading symbol LOGI, and the SIX Swiss Exchange, under the trading symbol LOGN.
Section 1—Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
Logitech has adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy which can be found at
http://www.logitech.com/assets/51186/logitech-policy-on-conflict-minerals-jan-2014-signed.pdf
In accordance with the execution of this policy, Logitech has concluded that during 2014:
| |
a) |
Logitech manufactured and contracted to manufacture products as to which “conflict minerals” (as defined in Section 1, Item 1.01 (d)(3) of Form SD) are necessary to the functionality or production of
such products; and |
| |
b) |
Based on its “reasonable country of origin inquiry,” Logitech was unable to obtain sufficient information from the company’s supply chain to make a final determination as to the source of these conflict
minerals. Logitech could not establish that the conflict minerals originated from sources in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) or an adjoining country (the “Covered Countries”) as defined by the Rule. Therefore, Logitech has defined
its products to be “DRC conflict undeterminable.” |
Logitech’s reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) employed a
combination of measures outlined below to assess whether the conflict minerals necessary in Logitech products originated from the Covered Countries. Logitech’s primary means of determining country of origin of conflict minerals involved
performing a supply-chain survey of direct suppliers through use of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition ® (EICC ®) and The
Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.
We surveyed our direct suppliers, using the template developed by the
EICC and GeSI, known as the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”) Reporting Template (“The Template”). The Template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that sell
material to a company’s suppliers. It includes questions regarding a company’s conflict-free policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, and a listing of the smelters the company and its suppliers use. In addition, the template contains
questions about the origin of conflict minerals included in their products, as well as supplier due diligence. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the tool is available on EICC’s website
(http://www.eicc.info). The Template is being used by many companies in their due diligence processes related to conflict minerals.
Through the reasonable country of origin inquiry described above, Logitech surveyed all of its direct suppliers
(483 suppliers in total). Approximately 95.86% of those suppliers, whom we had reasons to believe may contribute necessary conflict minerals to Logitech Products, provided a response to the supply-chain survey. We reviewed the responses against the
criteria designed to evaluate the adequacy of responses. These criteria include, but are not limited to, untimely or incomplete responses as well as inconsistencies within the data reported in the template. We have worked, and continue to work,
directly with these suppliers to obtain revised responses.
Through our participation in CFSI, the OECD implementation programs, and request of our
suppliers to complete The Template, we have concluded that obtaining information about tin, tungsten, tantalum or gold (“3TG”) smelters and refiners in our supply chain represents the most effective method to determine the mines or
locations of origin of the conflict minerals in our supply chain for the reporting period.
After conducting due diligence on the source and chain of
custody of the Conflict Minerals in our products, we found our products to be DRC conflict undeterminable, as indicated below.

LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.
CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT
FOR THE REPORTING PERIOD FROM JANUARY 1 TO DECEMBER 31, 2014
SECTION ONE: INTRODUCTION
This report for the year ended
December 31, 2014 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Rule). In this Conflict Minerals Report (“CMR”), references to “Logitech”, the “Company”, “we”,
“us” or “our” refer to Logitech International S.A. and its majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities that are required to be consolidated.
Logitech manufactures or contracts to manufacture products that may contain gold, tantalum, tin and tungsten (“3TG”) that are necessary to the
functionality or production of the products. Accordingly, the Company has undertaken the measures described in this CMR to trace the origin of these minerals and whether they may have been sourced from the Democratic Republic of Congo
(“DRC”) or any of its adjoining countries (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).
1. Company Overview
Logitech International S.A., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, (“Logitech” or the “Company”) is a world leader in products that
connect people to the digital experiences they care about. Spanning multiple computing, communication and entertainment platforms, we develop and market innovative hardware and software products that enable or enhance digital navigation, music and
video entertainment, gaming, social networking, and audio and video communication over the Internet and home-entertainment control.
Logitech was founded
in Switzerland in 1981, and Logitech International S.A. has been the parent holding company of Logitech since 1988. Logitech International S.A. is a Swiss holding company with its registered office in Apples, Switzerland, which conducts its business
through subsidiaries in Americas (including North and South America), EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and Asia Pacific (including, among other countries, China, Taiwan, Japan and Australia). Shares of Logitech International S.A. are listed on
both the Nasdaq Global Select Market, under the trading symbol LOGI, and the SIX Swiss Exchange, under the trading symbol LOGN.
The Company has two
operating segments, peripherals and video conferencing. Logitech’s peripherals segment encompasses the design, manufacturing and marketing of peripherals for personal computers (“PCs”), tablets and other digital platforms. The
Company’s video conferencing segment offers scalable high-definition (“HD”) video communications endpoints, HD video conferencing systems with integrated monitors, video bridges and other infrastructure software and hardware to
support large-scale video deployments, and services to support these products.
SECTION TWO: LOGITECH PRODUCTS
The Table 1 below lists the product categories developed and marketed by Logitech for the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2014. These
products are more fully described in our Annual Report, which can be accessed on our Web site or on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov, and the reports we file that are published by the SIX Swiss Exchange
may be accessed at: http://www.six-exchange-regulation.com/obligations/management_transactions_en.html.
The vast majority of the Logitech products are
electronic devices which include electronic and electrical components and semiconductors. Because of their specific properties, the 3TG are widely used in semiconductors and in electronic components generally and, by way of consequence, in the
consumer electronics industries. This is why Logitech has considered that almost all of its product categories may potentially include one or several Conflict Mineral(s). Accordingly, Logitech has included in the scope of its Conflict Minerals plan
all products qualifying as electronic devices. The only product categories that have been excluded from the scope of the Conflict Minerals plan are those related to so-called “passive devices”, namely devices which do not include
electronic or electric components, nor any semi-conductors, nor any other metallic component made of any of the 3TG. These excluded categories are included in Table 1, below and consist of: (i) folio protective cases for tablets;
(ii) protective cases for smartphones and other non-electronic, non-electric accessories for smartphones (such as tilt panels, car mounts); (iii) mouse pads.

Logitech is currently transitioning out certain products in its peripherals operating segment. These are identified in Table 1
above under “Other”. Logitech has included in the scope of its Conflict Minerals plan any product under this category that has been manufactured or marketed during the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2014.
Logitech may modify in the future the above categorization of its products in line with the requirement to adapt the category classification to business
needs.
SECTION THREE: CONFLICT MINERALS DETERMINATION
For the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2014, Logitech conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the conflict
minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of the products (“necessary conflict minerals”) that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture, after January 1st, 2014, for which the results of our reasonable
country of origin inquiry and the diligence measures conducted on these conflict minerals were as follows:
| |
• |
|
We were not able to obtain adequate information from our supply chain to be able to make any determination as to the source of these conflict minerals. |
These conflict minerals we define collectively as the “CMR conflict minerals” (the “CMR Conflict Minerals”).
Therefore, these products that we manufacture that are subject to the reporting obligations of Rule 13p-1 are “DRC conflict undeterminable”,
because we have been unable to determine the origin of the 3TG they contain or to determine whether they came from recycled or scrap sources; the facilities used to process them; their country of origin; or their mine or location of origin. (Please
also refer to Table 1 within this report for additional details).
The Company continues to implement and pursue processes to ensure in the future that it
is able to obtain the information necessary to make a determination.
SECTION FOUR: DUE DILIGENCE MEASURES
We conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of our products to
ascertain whether these conflict minerals originated in the Covered Countries and financed or benefitted non-state armed groups in any of these countries.
Design of Our Due Diligence Measures
Our conflict minerals due diligence measures have been designed to conform with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence
Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Second Edition (the “OECD Guidance”), as applicable for tin, tantalum, tungsten, gold and downstream companies (as the term is defined in
the OECD Guidance), in all material respects. We designed our due diligence measures to:
| |
1. |
establish strong Company management systems for conflict minerals supply chain due diligence; |
| |
2. |
identify and assess conflict minerals risks in our supply chain; |
| |
3. |
design and implement strategies to respond to conflict minerals risks identified; |
| |
4. |
contribute to independent third-party audits of the due diligence practices of conflict minerals smelters and refiners by participating in industry organizations; |
| |
5. |
report on our conflict minerals supply chain due diligence activities. |
Due Diligence Measures Performed
Logitech’s due diligence measures were based on multi-industry initiatives with the smelters and refiners of conflict minerals who provide those
conflict minerals to Logitech’s suppliers. As a purchaser, Logitech is many steps removed from the mining of the conflict minerals; Logitech does not purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals, and does no purchasing in the Covered
Countries. The smelters and refiners are consolidating points for raw ore and are in the best position in the total supply chain to know the origin of the ores. For downstream users like Logitech, it is not possible to determine the origin of
conflict minerals without information and clarification from suppliers and smelters.
As a member in the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (the
“CFSI”), we leveraged the due diligence conducted on smelters and refiners by the CFSI’s Conflict-Free Smelter Program (the “CFSP”). The CFSP uses independent private sector auditors to audit the source, including mines of
origin, and chain of custody of the conflict minerals used by smelters and refiners that agree to participate in the CFSP. The smelters and refiners that are found to be CFSP compliant are those for which the independent auditor has verified that
the smelter’s or refiner’s conflict minerals originated from conflict free mines in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or any of its adjoining countries.
Our due diligence measures included the following activities:
| 1) |
We utilised the already established internal team to implement Logitech’s Conflict Minerals Program again in 2014. The core team members are comprised from the following business units: Sustainability; Lifesize
Compliance; Global Sourcing; Supplier Development Team; Legal; Investor Relations and Finance; |
| 2) |
We maintained public availability of a Conflict Mineral Policy in 2014 at: http://www.logitech.com/assets/51186/logitech-policy-on-conflict-minerals-jan-2014-signed.pdf; |
| 3) |
We established requirements and incorporated these requirements into our standard supplier contracts to define Logitech expectations of suppliers regarding sourcing of conflict minerals and reporting of information to
Logitech. These requirements have been provided in our contracts as we entered into new supplier contracts or renewed existing ones. We have amended a certain number of supplier contracts that have been in place for several years. We continue to
pursue flow down clauses with all impacted suppliers. In the meantime we are working with the relevant suppliers to insure they provide the 3TG sourcing information until the contracts can be amended; |
| 4) |
We chose to engage with all our direct suppliers of materials, parts, components or products containing 3TG based on the widespread use of 3TG (“3TG Direct Suppliers”). Given our position in the supply chain,
we relied heavily on our first-tier suppliers to provide information about the sources of the 3TG used in our products and to identify whether those sources may be from the DRC or an adjoining country; |
| 5) |
We conducted a survey of our 3TG Direct Suppliers using the CFSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “Template”), which included questions about the location or mine of origin, and obligated those
suppliers to make similar efforts to survey their supply chain using the Template and report the facilities and location or mine of origin for necessary conflict minerals. We elected to use this Template as it is the most commonly used tool in
numerous industries, thus easing the potential confusion and burden for our suppliers; |
| 6) |
We received responses from 95.86% of the 3TG Direct Suppliers. We reviewed the responses against the criteria designed to evaluate the adequacy of responses. These criteria include, but are not limited to, untimely or
incomplete responses as well as inconsistencies within the data reported in the Template; |
| 7) |
We compared the facilities identified by relevant 3TG Direct Suppliers via the supply chain survey against the list of facilities that have received a “conflict-free” designation for tantalum, tin, tungsten
and gold, such as the Conflict-Free Smelter List (“CFS List”) published by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”); and, where a supplier indicated that the facility was certified as Conflict-Free, we ensured that the name
was listed by the CFSI; |
| 8) |
Based on the data collected to-date, the main risks we have identified are related to the lack of data and the quality of the data. The vast majority of the responses received from suppliers provided data at a company
level or were unable to specify the smelter or refiners used in their supply chain. We are therefore unable to determine whether any of the conflict minerals reported by the suppliers were contained in products supplied to us or to validate that any
of the smelters of refiners provided by our suppliers are actually in our supply chain; and |
| 9) |
We supported the CFSI Conflict-Free Smelter Program, and required relevant 3TG Direct Suppliers in Logitech supply chain to encourage the facilities in their supply chain to participate in the CFSI Conflict-Free Smelter
Program. |
SECTION FIVE: DUE DILIGENCE DETERMINATION
Survey Responses
We reviewed the responses received from
our 3TG Direct Suppliers resulting from the survey carried out using the Template.
Responses included the names of 423 entities listed by our suppliers
as smelters or refiners. 38.06% (161) of these entities were identified as certified Conflict-Free using the CFSI Compliant Smelter and Refiner Lists. This represents a significant progress compared to calendar year 2013 report, in which
Logitech had identified 57 smelters or refiners certified as Conflict-Free, which represented 15.66% of all smelters entities listed by our suppliers.

The remaining 262 processing facilities could not be determined to be conflict-free and so the responses could
not be validated and their status is deemed unknown. At the time of reporting, 41 are in the process of certification via CFSP.
Logitech supports the
refinement and expansion of the list of participating smelters through its membership in the CFSI program.
A small minority of suppliers provided
information at a product level or product category level. However all of these suppliers were unable to identify specifically the smelters whose 3TG went into parts supplied to Logitech.
The large majority of the responses received provided data at a company or divisional level or, as described above, were unable to specify the smelters or
refiners used for components supplied to Logitech. Thus, our suppliers were unable to represent to us that 3TG from the entities they listed had actually been included in components they supplied to Logitech. In addition, 262 processing facilities
were not validated as in fact being smelters or refiners.
We have therefore elected not to present the smelter and refiner names in this report, with the
exception of the conflict-free smelters sourcing from Covered Countries. Please see table 3 below for further information on these facilities and their country of origin

Efforts to Determine the Conflict Minerals’ Mine or Location of Origin –
Through our participation in CFSI, the OECD implementation programs, and requesting our suppliers to complete The Template, we have determined that seeking
information about 3TG smelters and refiners in our supply chain represents the most reasonable effort we can make to determine the mines or locations of origin of the 3TG in our supply chain, as outlined in Section Four “Due Diligence
Measures” above.
SECTION SIX: NEXT STEPS
Logitech will undertake the following steps, during the next compliance period, with the intention of further mitigating the risk that its supply chain
sourcing, utilizing necessary conflict minerals may benefit armed groups, including:
| |
• |
|
Attempting to increase the response rate of suppliers and improve the content of the responses by contracting a third party specialist to engage with these suppliers on an individual basis to understand their challenges
in compliance and support their transition. |
| |
• |
|
Requesting relevant suppliers to request smelters to participate in obtaining a conflict free designation from an industry program such as the EICC/GeSI Conflict Free Smelter program. |
| |
• |
|
Attempting to validate supplier responses using information collected via independent conflict free smelter validation programs such as the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition Global e-Sustainability Initiative
(EICC/GeSI) Conflict Free Smelter program to which we provide financial support. |
| |
• |
|
Increasing the number of relevant supplier contracts that include our requirements or obtaining industry standards demonstration of implementation of our standards, by utilising the Conflict Minerals Report template.
|
| |
• |
|
Future Non-Conformance: Discontinue doing business with any Logitech Suppliers whom are unable to meet our Conflict Minerals Policy. |
