Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

(b)	Conflict Minerals Disclosure of The Descartes Systems Group Inc. in Accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Overview:

This is the Conflict Minerals Disclosure of The Descartes Systems Group Inc. (“Descartes” or the “Company”) for the calendar year January 1 to December 31, 2025 in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In accordance with Section 1502 of the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Act”) governing conflict minerals, registrants must determine whether any of the conflict minerals (defined by the Act as Tin (Cassiterite), Tungsten (Wolframite), Tantalum (Columbite-Tantalite or Coltan) and Gold (the “Conflict Minerals”)) are necessary to the functionality or production of its manufactured products. If so, the registrant must conduct a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (“RCOI”) to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining countries (collectively, “DRC”), or are from recycled or scrap sources.

Descartes’ Business:

Descartes provides technology and networks focused on logistics and supply chain management business processes. Its solutions are almost entirely cloud-based software-as-a-service solutions. However, during the Company’s calendar year ended December 31, 2025, the Company designed, and contracted for, the manufacture of electronic logging devices (“ELDs”) for Bluetooth Low Energy (“BTLE”) readers and tag devices. The BTLE devices contain an array of electronic components similar to what is found in other modern, communicating devices. Computer processing chips, cellular modems, Wi-Fi chipsets, GPS chipsets, and other components sourced from manufacturers around the globe were used in the fabrication of these devices. The Company believes that Conflict Minerals may have been used in certain components used in the manufacture of its tags and readers. Sales of the Company’s BTLE devices represented less than .50% of the Company’s worldwide revenues for the Company’s 2026 fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

RCOI:

In accordance with the Act, Descartes conducted an RCOI to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in the DRC. The Company performed this work by reviewing its worldwide supply chain and by contacting its manufacturers and requesting information as to where the Conflict Minerals are sourced.

The Company reviewed the information received for completeness. Its suppliers did not inform Descartes in response to due diligence inquiries that the suppliers obtained Conflict Minerals from the DRC. In accordance with the Act, as a result of the information the Company received from its suppliers for calendar year 2025, Descartes was not able to determine with certainty the country

of origin of the Conflict Minerals in its manufactured products, but does not have reason to believe that its necessary Conflict Minerals may have originated in the DRC.

Conflict Minerals Policy; Website:

The Company believes in responsibly sourcing components for its ELDs, and understands the negative impacts that conflict derived minerals have on the peoples of affected regions. As part of its commitment to corporate responsibility and respecting human rights in its own operations and supply chain, it has been the Company’s goal not to use Conflict Minerals and to support responsible mineral sourcing. Descartes has adopted a Policy on Conflict Minerals, a copy of which can be found on its website at https://www.descartes.com/legal/compliance/policy-on-conflict-materials. The content of any website referred to herein is included for general information only and is not incorporated by reference into this Form SD. This Form SD also is posted on Descartes’ website at https://www.descartes.com/legal/compliance/policy-on-conflict-materials.
