Conflict Minerals Report
For The Year Ended December 31, 2015
Introduction and Background
This Conflict Minerals Report (the “CMR”) of Intuit Inc. ("Intuit") for the year ended December 31, 2015 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 (“Rule 13p-1”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). Rule 13p-1 imposes certain reporting obligations on U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants that manufacture or contract to manufacture products containing certain minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. These minerals are cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten (“3TG” or “Conflict Minerals”). Rule 13p-1 focuses on 3TG originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”) and nine adjoining countries (together, the “Covered Countries’). If, based on a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (“RCOI”), a registrant has reason to believe that any of the necessary Conflict Minerals in its supply chain may have originated in the Covered Countries and may not be from recycled or scrap sources, or if a registrant is unable to determine the country of origin of those Conflict Minerals, then the registrant must exercise due diligence on the Conflict Minerals’ source and chain of custody.
Intuit creates business and financial management software solutions that simplify the business of life for small businesses, consumers and accounting professionals. Our flagship products - QuickBooks, TurboTax and Mint - define our commitment to revolutionize the way people manage their personal finances, run small businesses and pay employees. Intuit has reviewed the products it manufactures or contracts to manufacture and has confirmed that none of its software products (including software products that are distributed on CDs as well as software products distributed through downloading or as a cloud-based service) contain Conflict Minerals. These core software offerings account for in excess of 95% of Intuit’s annual revenue.
In addition to these core software offerings, Intuit also contracts to manufacture a certain payment dongle that attaches to smart phones, tablets and Bluetooth card readers that allows merchants to process credit card payments (the “Intuit Payment Devices”). For the 2015 reporting period, the only product that Intuit manufactured or contracted to manufacture containing Conflict Minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of such products are the Intuit Payment Devices. This CMR relates to the process undertaken for the Intuit Payment Devices.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Intuit conducted a RCOI to determine whether any of the necessary Conflict Minerals in the Intuit Payment Devices originated in the Covered Countries, or were Conflict Minerals from recycled or scrap sources by surveying our supply base for the Intuit Payment Devices. Based on its RCOI, Intuit was unable to determine that certain of its Conflict Minerals did not originate in the Covered Countries or come from recycled or scrap sources, and, accordingly, we conducted due diligence on the source and chain of custody of such Conflict Minerals, as discussed below.
Design of Conflict Minerals Program
Intuit's due diligence program was designed to conform, in all material respects, to the five-step framework laid out in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and related Supplements on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and on Gold (the "OECD Guidance"). Below is a summary of the design of our due diligence program as it relates to the five-step framework under the OECD Guidance.
Establish Strong Company Management Systems
Intuit has established strong company management systems relating to conflict minerals. In January 2013, we formed a dedicated working group comprised of subject matter experts within the Supply Chain organization and Legal teams, and this working group has met regularly since its formation. The working group reports regularly on progress to a disclosure committee of senior executives, including the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer and General Counsel, and also updates the Audit Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors. Management has also developed a Conflict Minerals Policy that is posted at http://www.intuit.com/company/strategic-sourcing/supplier-policies/conflict-minerals/ to clearly communicate Intuit’s commitment to developing and maintaining a conflict free mineral supply chain to its suppliers and the public.
In addition, we maintain a company-level grievance mechanism, as described in our Code of Conduct and Ethics, that enables employees to report concerns, including any concerns regarding Intuit's Conflict Minerals supply chain. Intuit also maintains an integrity hotline that third parties can use to report on financial and ethical issues, including issues concerning our Conflict Minerals supply chain. The number for this hotline is 1-877-379-3939.
Intuit contracts to manufacture the Intuit Payment Devices with a sole direct supplier (the “Tier One Supplier”) that is at least four levels removed from the actual mining of the 3TGs. Intuit relies on the Tier One Supplier to provide information regarding the 3TG contained in those products, and the Tier One Supplier is similarly reliant upon information provided by its suppliers. Intuit has continued to work with its Tier One Supplier to establish controls over and transparency for its 3TG supply chain. In this process, Intuit used the due diligence tools developed by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”), including the CFSI’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the “Template”), which is designed to identify the smelters that process the Conflict Minerals in a company’s supply chain.
Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain
Intuit required its Tier One Supplier to disclose the original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") that manufacture all of the components in the Intuit Payment Devices, and Intuit required each of the three identified OEMs to complete the Template. Intuit received a completed Template from all three OEMs. In addition, as a supplemental measure in 2015, Intuit requested and received a completed Template from the contract manufacturer responsible for packaging the OEM components for Intuit Payment Devices. Once Intuit received the completed Templates, Intuit reviewed the Templates for completeness, accuracy and consistency. Where the Templates identified smelter facilities as sources of an OEM's 3TG, Intuit compared the identified smelters against the CFSI’s standard smelter list and the list of compliant smelters published by CFSI's Conflict Free Smelter Program (“CFSP”).
We are a member of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (“EICC”) and the CFSI working
groups. As a member of the CFSI, a leading industry program that helps its members to manage risk by improving supply chain transparency with respect to Conflict Minerals, Intuit has access to CFSI RCOI data that aids us in determining the mine or location of origin of the Conflict Minerals in our supply chain.
Based on the responses received, Intuit has determined that the OEM component manufacturers obtain their components from a mix of certified conflict free smelters as well as smelters that have not yet been certified as conflict free, as discussed below under “Results of Due Diligence.” As a result, the primary risk in Intuit’s supply chain is the lack of complete information on the origin of the components and the resulting inability of its Tier One Supplier to find OEM manufacturers that can certify that the 3TGs contained in the components utilized in the Intuit Payment Devices are sourced exclusively from certified conflict free smelters.
Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks
Intuit’s strategy to respond to the identified risks in its supply chain focuses on implementing requirements that its Tier One Supplier source the components in the Intuit Payment Devices from smelters certified under CFSI’s CFSP wherever possible. In this regard, where Template responses indicate that suppliers are not using certified conflict-free sources, we engaged with the Tier One Supplier and/or OEM to encourage them to establish an alternative source of Conflict Minerals. Intuit holds weekly meetings with its Tier One Supplier to discuss and assess whether all of the suppliers in the supply chain are diligently working to get the Template completed in an accurate and timely manner.
Support Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence
Intuit does not have direct relationships with smelters and does not perform direct audits of these entities' supply chains for 3TGs. However, Intuit supports the development of, and smelters' participation in, independent third party audits of smelters' sourcing practices, such as the CFSI's CFSP.
As a result of these independent third party audits of smelters’ sourcing practices, for 2015 we have identified a greater number of smelters that are CFSP compliant in the Tier One Supplier’s supply chain than reported in last year’s report.
Report on Supply Chain Diligence
Intuit is committed to full and transparent disclosure of its efforts to facilitate the sourcing of conflict-free minerals for its products. This CMR is available on Intuit's website at http://www.intuit.com/company/strategic-sourcing/supplier-policies/.
Due Diligence Measures Performed
Intuit performed the following due diligence measures for the 2015 reporting period to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the necessary Conflict Minerals contained in the Intuit Payment Devices that we had reason to believe may have originated from the Covered Countries and may not have come from recycled or scrap sources:
• |
Where Template responses identified smelter facilities as sources of an OEM’s 3TG, Intuit compared the identified smelters against the CFSI’s standard smelter list and the list of compliant smelters published by the CFSI’s CFSP. |
• |
Where Template responses identified smelters that were not certified conflict-free by the CFSI’s CFSP, we engaged with the Tier One Supplier and/or OEM to encourage them to establish an alternative source of Conflict Minerals. |
Results of Due Diligence
All four of the OEMs in Intuit’s supply chain were able to complete the information requested in the Template. Two of Intuit’s OEMs were unable to provide complete information about the smelters in their supply chains. Based on responses we received to the Template, 240 smelters were identified in Intuit’s supply chain. Of these 240 smelters, 182 smelters have been audited and are compliant with the CFSP. Two of our surveyed suppliers have confirmed that 100% of their smelters are compliant with the CFSP while our two other surveyed suppliers have determined that 82% and 80% of the smelters in their supply chains, respectively, are CFSP compliant. Intuit's efforts to determine the mine or location of origin of the Conflict Minerals in the Intuit Payment Devices with the greatest possible specificity consisted of the due diligence measures described in this CMR, including our efforts to seek information from OEMs using the Template.
The table below illustrates our results by providing, for each metal, the number and percentage of potential 3TG facilities that were either CFSP compliant or in process to become compliant with the CFSP.

Although Intuit requested information at a product level, almost all supplier responses provided information at a company or division level, but not at a product level, and, therefore, the information provided was not necessarily limited to smelters confirmed to be in Intuit’s supply chain. In addition, many of the supplier responses were still incomplete as all minerals supply chain participants continue to map their upstream supply chains. As a result, Intuit is unable to validate whether the facilities identified by the OEMs, which are listed in Annex A below, in fact contributed Conflict Minerals to Intuit Payment Devices. Annex B below includes an aggregated list of the countries of origin from which the facilities listed in Annex A are believed to source Conflict Minerals, based on information provided by suppliers and CFSI, of which Intuit is a member.
Additional Mitigation Efforts
Intuit is also a member of the EICC and has developed procedures consistent with the EICC recommendations for responsible sourcing of Conflict Minerals, as set forth in the OECD Guidance. Intuit also attends the weekly EICC Conflict Minerals Due Diligence Calls chaired by the EICC and has implemented the best practices that are relevant to its supply chain that have been developed by the CFSI. As an active member of the EICC, Intuit will continue to monitor and implement relevant best practices recommendations from the EICC as well as Conflict Minerals trends that impact Intuit’s business.
Further Intuit:
• |
Conducts benchmarking sessions with manufacturers and other technology companies in Silicon Valley; |
• |
Sets up Webinars with its suppliers to address concerns and questions; and |
• |
Continues to work with suppliers to see that they have robust due diligence practices. |
In addition, in order to improve on the quality of information provided by its supply chain, Intuit has already amended its agreements with its Tier One Supplier to strengthen the contractual requirements to source from certified conflict-free sources wherever possible. Intuit requires the inclusion of similar provisions in its agreements with new suppliers and we will continue to work with our Tier One supplier and the EICC to ensure that our Tier One supplier continues to make all reasonable efforts to work with OEMs to source from smelters that are compliant with the CFSP.
