Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
This Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD (“Form SD”) of Littelfuse, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2023 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Rule 13p-1 under the Exchange Act provides that a registrant must file this specialized disclosure report on Form SD if it manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which certain “Conflict Minerals” (as defined below) are necessary to the functionality or production of such products. Conflict Minerals are defined as (i) cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold, or (ii) 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 (collectively, the “Covered Countries”).
As required for products that contain the Conflict Minerals, Littelfuse, Inc. conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry that it believes was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the necessary Conflict Minerals contained in its products manufactured in calendar year 2023 originated in the Covered Countries. The Conflict Minerals Report, which describes this inquiry and other information, is provided as an exhibit to this report and is also publicly available on the Littelfuse website at https://investor.littelfuse.com/governance/governance-documents/.
